BH Cosmetics Review

Yay! Two posts in one day! This one is a review on the BH Cosmetics 120 Color eye palette, and this one is the third edition. I bought this from a Hautelook sale for $15, and its usually around $30, so I got it for half off which is a great deal. This is my first BH Cosmetics product, and I can truly say that I'm impressed. The colors had a pretty good payoff, and most of them had great pigmentation. While some of them left something to be desired, I think most of them were great, and for $15, I really can't complain.

One of this things that I love about this palette is that your always finding something that you didn't know was there before. Even after having it for a few weeks, looking at the colors to get swatches,  I found some really interesting colors that I didn't even notice were there before, and that being said, you can always come up with a different makeup look.

I really like that this has a variety of fun colors for makeup for halloween, and dark colors for smokey eyes, as well as neutrals for everyday wear. If this was the only palette that you had for your entire life, I don't think that you would be held back one bit on the possibilities of the looks you can create, and for $15, who cares if one shadow is a dud. It's not really putting you out.

I found that these shadows have great staying power, and were even on after gym class, and playing a strenuous game of ultimate frisbee! I noticed zero creasing whatsoever and my shadows looked great all day.

All and all I would give this a 4.5 out of 5 because there are a few dud shadows, but most of them are AMAZING and I would highly recommend this product to any beginner makeup artist.

Princess Jasmine Halloween Tutorial

Hey guys! So I'm finally back, and with a super fun post this time! A halloween tutorial! This one is inspired by the Disney Princess Jasmine who is my all time favorite princess. I'm a Disney junkie for sure. I own all the classics on VHS and I've been to Disney world 8 times. My all time dream is to work there as one of the Disney Princesses, and that is a possibility for me once I've graduated high school. Some more big news, I turn 16 in exactly a week! I'm having a sweet sixteen party that's Mardi Gras themed and I can't wait! My dress is GORGEOUS and my grandmother is making it. It's sparkly and gold, and my heels are classic black patent leather. I will definitely being doing an outfit of the day that day. Let me know if you guys want to see how I'm doing my makeup because I can definitely make a tutorial for that! I'll be sure to post pictures from the party! But for now, lets get going on this tutorial!

First start off with an au naturale face

Next, do your usual face routine.  I use Maybelline Dream Fresh
BB cream, and milani highlighter, and Rimmel Stay Matte Powder

Then I used the Lorac TANtalizer to make my face look darker
just like Jasmine

Next I'm using Blackout from Naked 2 to do my eyebrows.
 I know these look crazy but, these are cartoon eyebrows,
so you can tone them down if you want!

Next I took this white ultra crayon and placed it all over my lid and blended
it in, using it as a base

I took the color my brush is pointing at from the BH cosmetics 120 3rd edition
palette and placed it on my eyelid

Then I took Peace from a limited edition Urban Decay
palette and place it right on top to make it pop a little
more

Then with a small contour brush, I took this color and put
that in the crease. For this I used scotch tape to create a sharp line,
as you can see in the picture below so that it looks cleaner and more
princess like.

Next I took this purple from the same BH cosmetics palette, and I placed it
in my crease but I didn't blend it, I just patted it on, to give a little more color.

Next I took this cream eyeshadow from Ulta in the color
Shimmering Topaz and with the smudge brush I dragged that
across my lower lash line, This is key because it really brings
together the entire look in my opinion.

Next,  I reapplied to tape to that sharp like and applied a
thick cat eye. I reapplied the tape so that I could make the wing
go along the shadow line

Next, I took Verve and applied it under my brow bone

Self- Explanatory. I applied my favorite mascaras, I would suggest
falsies for this, but I didn't have any on hand so I made do with
what I had

Next I applied a dark plum lipstick from MAC, and I have
no idea what it's called... Sorry!

And your done!

Hey guys! I'm sooooooooo sorry for the lack of posts! The last two weeks have been hectic and I have found no time to post! Between school and soccer and getting ready for my huge birthday party on the 19th, I've been going non stop, and this weeks homecoming so there's a ton of festivities going on. Luckily I have a four day weekend this weekend, so I'll be posting a few posts. I'll be buying my shoes for my party! I'm so excited! My dress is almost done, and I'll be sure to post a picture when it is! It's gold and sparkly and fits so well with my Mardi Gras theme. I'm going with black heels for the shoes, and as of now I'm going stag to my own party, but I don't mind at all, I'll just party with my girls instead. My soccer team is still undefeated! I'm so excited! I only have four goals this season, but every goal counts to making your team a winning team. We all get along so well on my team and I think that's why we do so well, because we always have a great time during the games and even practice! I'm sending in to get my license tomorrow! Wish me luck! Swim season starts relatively soon and I'm not sure if I'm excited or not. I hate practices, but the high school meets are okay. I don't really have any great friends on the team because my best friends don't really play sports. I can't even imagine what I'd do with my time... Well I probably should do homework but we all know that that's not going to happen. Ha! Just kidding guys! I do my homework and my grades are decent right now except for Latin. I just don't understand the grammar concept of it all! Well I should probably get back to doing more homework! What do you guys want to see? I'll definitely have a BH Cosmetics review soon because I just got the palette!! Yay! I'll talk to you guys later!
