sally hansen hard as nails xtreme wear nail color in blue it.

i got it from priceline a while ago when it was on special. i can't remember what was the deal now. if i remember correctly, the normal rrp is aud$7.

want to know how i did this simple wearable look that's can be worn day and night? please check out my guest post at black rose minerals blog - vixen from day to night.

with so many of my looks in the past 2 months using black rose minerals, you know i'm a big fan. when the site has a weekly special deal, i had to grab it. the deal i had at the time was choosing 3 full size jars for $9. that's 1/2 price!

the 3 eyeshadows i chose for this special deals are titania, vixen and rapunzel.

these colors are recently released. i've not sampled these colors before. since i have faith in most of brm's eyeshadows, i ordered colors that are browns and neutrals, which are wearable. you can't go wrong with them.

in my forever quest to find a cheaper alternative to my holy grail too faced shadow insurance, i decided to give it a try. especially when the pricetag is very attractive. and some people at the sn forum says it's good.

filling in my brows is an essential part of my makeup routines. there are many ways to fill in brows. the perfect way is using a brush (my current favorite is ecotools' angled eyeliner brush) with brow powders or eyeshadows, but it's time consuming. the quickest way is using pencils.

here are some of my eyebrow pencils. i think i have more but they're all over the places. these are the ones that i can find so far for taking pics.
