One of the companies I write for sent me a special holiday gift, it was the Sephora Smokey Eye Brush Set! It was totally unexpected and I was totally floored by the sweet, warm gesture. I blurred out the company for privacy and contract purposes, but I emailed them a special thanks! I totally love the brush set and it even came with an eyeliner brush which I was meaning to get just because I only have one at the moment that I really like, and was looking for another pointy one, and came with volumizing mascara, can't wait to try these out!
I also got my MILANI haul (some of which I will be selling):
I also did a navy blue FOTD a few days ago, I was happy to finally use my mineralize eyeshadow in "Silversmith"!
What I used:
Face:
- Airbrush Primer
- Silk Naturals Foundation
- Model in a Bottle
Cheeks:
- EDM Blush in "Email Me"
Eyes:
- MAC Paint Pot in Painterly
- AVON Eye Pencil in "Lightning" all over the lid
- EDM eyeshadow in "Bundle Up" all over the lid
- MAC Vanilla Pigment all over the lid
- MAC "Silversmith" (blue side) on outer-V and contour
- MAC e/s in "Deep Truth" and Milani "Blue Ice" on the middle and outer half of lid
- Milani "Atlantis" on Lowerlashline
- NYX "Aquamarine" Trio
- Revlon Colorstay Eyeliner in "Black"
Lips:
- MAC L/S in "Scanty"
- Covergirl Lash Exact in Blackest Black
The brush set looks good! why don't we have sephora here :(
ReplyDeleteThe milani shadows looks yummy and why don't we have that in australia too? We have NOTHING here!!!!
Anyway love the FOTD, especially the blue! Looking gorgeous as always :)

ReplyDeletehi vanessa! i love your blog! i have a quick question since i just started to try out mineral makeup. if you put on a creamy concealer on acne spots and under the eyes, will the mineral makeup cake up on those spots or be a different color? i'm thinking of using my MAC concealer (the one in a pot) with everyday minerals over it.
ReplyDeletewoot! more loot for you! Merry Christmas! Looking good as always!
