Copperplate, Slate, and Swatches



Here are some swatches from my MMBB samples:


I also bought Covergirl's Gel Eyeliner in "Slate" which I just absolutely love! It's better than black eyeliner to me for a softer smoky look or for lining the eyes without looking so dramatic. Also a good dupe for some of MAC's eyeliners, and it DOES stay on!

The "slate" swatch:


I also played with my Matte2 eyeshadow in "Copperplate", another great eyeshadow to make a softer smoky look or for everyday wear. I used it to outline my crease.






Another item I am selling, BRAND NEW MAC eyeshadow in "Seedy Pearl":

  1. Hi Vanessa,

    How is it that you are able to get all those samples of eyeshadows. Please let me know. I am definitely interested.

    Thanks,

  2. I order them from mineral makeup sites such as madminerals.org, ktnaturals.com, or lumierecosmetics.com (just to name a few). :)

    Hope that helps!

  3. hey nessa,
    i was wondering if you were still having a problem with milia? if so, i think you should DEFINITELY try out northwest orca soap's green papaya enzyme mask. i've been using it and it's pretty much gotten ridden of all my milia. :] just thought i'd share.

  4. Hey Christiana! oOoh that just sounds so heavenly! I checked out their site $15/jar not bad...I should try it out! I don't have milia anymore, i've been using Oil of Olay and my astringent and so far it's been clear skin (thank goodness!). But I do want to try that mask out!

  8. Is the CG Slate a jar or the gel pencils? I couldn't locate them in the site, just the pencils... so I'm a little thrown off on the jar liquid on the pic hehe

    Thanks :)

  9. The CG eyeliner I got is a pencil, that jar is the indelible gel eyeliner that arrived with my mineral samples... :)
