a Kuuipo1207 inspired look : Purple and Olive EOTD

Sorry for the poor quality of the pics. Normally, I take a billions photos to find 2 or 3 that are worth publishing. Yesterday, as I was late for work I just snapped 5 photos (2 of them were blurry and 1 : I had my eyes half closed !). So here are the 2 survivors of my "erase-it-all" fury !

EOTD : the simplest make up look ever inspired by the gorgeous Kuupio1207. She was the 1st youtube guru I followed and you all know the 1st one always stays in your heart forever... I picked the Purple from the Original Sleek palette and the Olive Green. I just used vanilla e/s (MAC) as an highlight. And tada : you're done ! Well, you have to do a little bit of blending with the purple which is not an easy little guy to work with but that's something I can tolerate as the pay off is so good

Weight loss challenge : Last night, I heard whipped cream, chocolate bars and chips crying my name ...I am sure my hypoglycemia is tricking me (Though the sobbing of the chocolate bar nearly got me !). I will go to be weight, scaled (I don't know the proper word) on Wednesday morning : I feel a little bit like a cow you put on a scale to see if there enough meat to eat but anyway...I'll go !

An Olive EOTD with sleek palette and a review

I love to play with my new toys !!! I just use the original in this look as I wanted to try the Olive color bottom line last color on the left. I will not link all the products I use because I prefer giving the 1st impressions I have on those palettes.

Cons :
it's not really a problem but the palettes are really tiny, I thought they looked bigger when I saw them on you tube.
Consistency of the e/s : they are on the chalky side ...I don't know if my eyelids are now highly sensitive but the texture of those e/s isn't very pleasant
Blending problem : probably because of the consistency, I find them harder to blend than some of my powder e/s that are more on the creamy side.
No highlight color : as those e/s are shimmery for the most part (even looking metallic for some !), I regret that there is no beige highlight in each palette. You have the black outer V color in each kit but no highlight...

Pros :
Palette look : very sturdy, doesn't look cheap. I think those palettes would resist a incredible travel in my (gigantic) bag without breaking.
Color pay off : I just tried 2 of my palettes : Storm and Original and the color pay off is absolutely amazing in both of them
range of colors : those palettes carry 12 colors and I love the mix they did, to offer such a wide range of hues to try
Staying power : I always use a primer to make my make up stick to my lids all day. But sometimes, even with my TFSI some colors fade away. I worked 9 hours yesterday, went back home and the make up was still flawless on my eyes. So staying power is gorgeous

Do I recommend them : absolutely ! Because, even though I don't feel those e/s to be comfy on my lids, they look gorgeous on my eyes. I know some girls who will understand the concept of stunning incredibly non comfy shoes....Do you wear them ? I do, even if I bleed my feet to death !!!! You get the idea...
