Splash of Color by Beauty from the Earth & Heavenly Naturals

I've done another version of this look with these gorgeous shades from Beauty from the Earth. I just wanted to show that you can do multiple styles of looks but with the same colors. This time around I decided to add a little purple. I also chose to keep the yellow in the tear ducts and not on the lid like last time.

The shirt I was inspired from is becoming one of my favorites to wear, so I appologize if you see this often lmao. Anyway, please let me know your thoughts!

What I used:

Eyes:
Beauty from the Earth pigment in "Caribbean" (Middle lid, softly under brow highlight & lower lash line)
Beauty from the Earth pigment in "Illusion" (Crease)
Beauty from the Earth pigment in "Sweet Nibblets" (Tear ducts)
Heavenly Natural Beauty pigment in "DIVA" (Lightly on Outer V-crease & lower outer lashline)
Hip liner in "Blue Spark #925" (Waterline)

Blush:
Wet & Wild "Strike-A-Pose-Rose" #346"

Lips:
Miliani Two Perfect "Pretty Pair" #801

Corn yellow & Teal blue (BTFE Cosmetics)

Okay let me just say, about %10 percent of mineral pigments that are Matte suck for me lol. Seriously, nothing I do can make matte pigments look good on the lid or crease. I can work it with shadows, but for some reason matte pigments are kinda tricky.

But the night before trying this look I decided to do a pre-run with Beauty from the Earth's "Sweet Nibblets." Honesty, guys this was the easiest matte pigment I've used in awhile. I was so surprised to feel how silky the matte pigment felt as it went on. It really showed up beautiful and I am quite impressed.

I was again inspired by what I wear. As most of you know I love to be inspired by many things including what fashion I seem to be wearing. I hope you like!


What I Used:

Beauty from the Earth pigment in "Sweet Nibblets" (matte corn yellow on lid and tear ducts)
Beauty from the Earth pigment in "Playful" (light purple blue color on lower lashline on the inner tear ducts only)

NARS eyeshadow in "Kilimanjaro I" u can use MAC "Vanilla" as dupe (brow highlight)
NARS eyeshadow in "Night Flight" (sparkly dark blue to darken crease)
Urban Decay Liner in "Zero" (waterline)

Blush:

Lips:
NYX Lipstick in "Thalia"

Beauty From The Earth (Mint & Deep Blue Greens)

Beauty from the Earth Cosmetics owner Crystal gave me the chance to try a few of her pigments about a month ago. I took tons of swatches and reviews when my computer decided to die on me. I was so upset, since I had looks to upload and so much work done. So now I'm redoing some looks I had done before they got lost. Tonight I will be uploading the swatches and product info.

I did this look to do some shopping with the family for Thanksgiving. I love the Mint color, it's been a color I've been looking to get. I needed a really good pigmented Mint and this is the perfect mint shade. Illusion is also one of my favorites, being a beautiful blue green.

I hope you like this look, please comment!
