Tea Party ... and skincare update!

Let me first say that I went a bit overboard with the blue under the eye ... it didn't look nearly this stark in person at least. Other than that I LOVE THESE COLOURS! I am so glad I finally put them together, because they belong together. I just love them!

Oh yes ... and I got a shipment confirmation about my skincare stuff from Mario Badescu ... it has a scheduled delivery of Thursday ... so if it makes it here then it will be five days from order to door-step, which is pretty darn good in my opinion!

Enjoy!

Face:
basic face routine
Vintage Peach blush; used Tapered Blush brush

Eyes:
NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk lash to just above crease, then blended up towards crease; used fingers
UD 24/7 eye pencil in 1999 along lower lashline; smudged using Sephora #4 sponge applicator

  1. Erin, is the mascara waterproof and how does it wear? Thanks for the review, I'm still searching for my HG of mascara. I REALLY want Jasmine and Herbal Tea. REALLY, REALLY! Why didn't I buy the kit when I had the chance?!?

  3. The mascara wears great for me Lisa ... flaked a little yesterday but today has been perfect. What I love the most about it is that I can get the results that usually take me five minutes in about two ... LOVE LOVE LOVE this mascara! And no ... to my knowledge it isn't waterproof ... I hate waterproof mascaras!

    Glad everyone likes this kit ... I was pleased with it too!
