Detrivore Cosmetics

I recently received some pigment from Detrivore cosmetics (http://www.detrivorecosmetics.com) The color I got is called kill joy, it's a flat intense red color.
I absolutely love the dark names and the look of this website. The pigments are very high quality. I will be buying more in the near future! I got to play around with the color a couple nights ago and took some pics for you guys :)
Here is what I used to achieve this look:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Detrivore pigment in killjoy
MineralfaceFX pigment in Matte white, charcoal briquette and gold finch
MAC fluidline
About Face pigment in firecracker.
This look reminds me of fire. My husband LOVED it ;) Xo
Below are some pics I took using a couple different types of lighting:

Mineralfacefx.com Holiday Pigment

MineralFace FX (mineralfacefx.com) is one of my favorite places to get pigment from. I have over 100 colors (including 3 palettes) and love it all! MFFX also sells mineral foundation, blush, lip gloss, brushes, etc. I wear this makeup EVERY DAY!
They have affordable prices, highly-pigmented colors, and they ship FAST!
The holiday colors I received today are called jolly, merry and twinkle. I also got a beautiful color called gold finch that is NOT part of the holiday line.
Here are the swatches from left to right: Gold finch, merry, jolly, and twinkle

I'm sick, so I haven't had time to do a look but expect to see one in the near future :)
After swatching these colors I think my favorite is jolly, it's very shimmery and has a beautiful blue-based pearl sheen. All the colors are very glittery! Perfect for the holidays!

Urban Decay Eyeliner and Eyeshadow Haul

Ohhhhhhhhh yes!!!!!! Urban Decay....I love their shadows! They were having a 30% off sale so I got a few goodies for myself ;)
What I love about ordering from Urban Decay online is they ship FAST. I bought the half-baked set and the covet liner set. All together I received two heavy metal liners, two 24/7 glide-on eye pencils (covet & burbon) one eyeshadow (half-baked) and a mini primer potion.
The half-baked eyeshadow is a shimmery golden bronze. it can be paired with lots of different colors.
Urban Decay eyeliners are amazing, they stay put all day and glide on without having to pull on the eyelid. Bourbon is a brown w/golden glitter and covet is a blue/turquoise color. The heavy metal liners have a fine tip and work great over any liner. I used the baked heavy metal liner today and the glitter has not budged or irritated my eyes at all.

MAC Naugty Noir Eye Bag Review

I love this set! The only negative thing I have to say is that the liner brush is too short and difficult to use. I love fluidline and the shimmertime pigment is a beautiful highlight that I use almost everyday. This would make a great stocking stuffer ;)

theshespace.com review

I got a small haul yesterday from theshespace.com because they were having a HUGE sale that my friend Lauren told me about ;) I can NOT resist a good deal! Bwahahaha....
I got 4 pigments: high drama, crushed metal, lack of sanity, and kitty kat. The color payoff is amazing, so if you love loose pigments, these little jars will make you smile.
I swatched the colors. from L to right is crushed metal lack of sanity, high drama, and kitty kat
