Project Pan: 10 Pan Update for June 2017

Hello all! Hope you are having a wonderful day/night. I just logged back on here and saw that I have not posted in about a month! Geesh how time flies! Anyways, I had a few posts that were ready to go but not officially posted. I want to begin with an update on my Project 10 Pan, which in all honesty has been an utter and complete failure. I have maybe been using about 4 of the 10 products constantly, one of the products I have lost, and the rest have been forgotten. 

Anywho... The following is the progress that I actually do have:

This is the body spray from Bath & Body Works, I am sure I will have this done in no time.


This is the Lo-Fi Bronzer from UD Gwen face palette, I am almost done with it but that little ring around the edge of the pan is hanging on for dear life!

FInally, the last product that I have been consistently using is my MAC lipstick in Snob. I am sure I will be done with this in no time.

Sorry I don't have much more of a progress to show. Projects like these remind me how terrible I am in remembering to use things. I think fast/seasonal project pans are a better fit for me because they keep me on track and force me to use the products. In the future, I think I will be sticking with the seasonal ones alone.

Thanks for taking the time to read!

Colorful Eye Look using Kat Von D Metal Matte eye palette


Hello all! Today I decided to go for a colorful look using some teals and purples from the Kat Von D Metal Matte palette. If you would like to know how I achieved this look, keep on reading!


As usual, I started off priming my lids. I used Too Faced Shadow Insurance and set that with the shade Pink Cream from the Lorac Mega Pro 3.

On a flat shader brush, I took the shade Watt and applied that all over the lid.

On a crease brush, I took the shades Silk and Ribbon and applied those to the crease.

I used the shade Volt which is a shimmery purple and applied that to the outer V.

I used the shade Nebula (a shimmery navy blue) and applied that to the inner corner.

I then used a makeup wipe to clean up the hot mess left by the blue shadow.

For foundation, I used iSOCiETY COSMETICS HI Def Foundation in N45 Cool Neutral. I blended that out with a damp beautyblender.

To conceal dark circles, I used catrice corrector in the peachy/salmon shade.

To further brighten, I used my Nars Radiant Creamy concealer in Chantilly.

To set the under eyes, I used my Laura Mercier Secretly Brightening powder.

I used my Physicians Formula powder in Creamy Natural to set the face.

I took the shade Watt and smudged it on the lower lash line.

For brows, I used NYX brow pencil in dark brown to fill in and essence clear brow gel to set.

I used the shade "bone" as a brow bone highlight. This is a matte cream shade.

For bronzer, I used Lo-Fi from Urban Decay Gwen face palette.

For blush, I used the shade Easy.

For highlight, I used the shade Angel.

I set everything with Mario Badescu Rose water spray.

I used the Tarte pot clay liner in black and drew a wing on the top lashes.

For mascara, I used iSOCiETY Intense in Hello Sailor.

I lined my lips with the Bite beauty lip liner in 022.

I topped that liner with iSOCiETY Vinyl lips in lollipop. 

I hope you all liked this look. I was pleasantly surprised. I was not sure how the teal and purple would work out. 

Thank you for taking the time to read!

Biweekly Makeup Basket May 22nd – June 4th

Hello all! Welcome to another round of makeup baskets! For the next couple of weeks, my focus will be on the following products:

For bronzer, I will be continuing with my Lo-Fi from the UD Gwen face palette.

For blush, I will continue with Easy (middle on the top row) and for highlight, Angel both from the UD Gwen face palette.

For eyes, I will be focusing on my Kat Von D Metal Matte palette. I loooove this palette, I think it is surely one of my favorites! I am definitely excited to be using this one once again.

For lips, I am not going to be focusing on any in particular. I am really liking just going with the flow and picking whichever I feel like using that day.

I hope to have some looks up within the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned!


As always, thanks so much for reading!
