Kiss Beauty 16 Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette from Born Pretty Store Swatches + EOTD

Howdy? I hope you're all doing great. I've been out the whole day and also took the time to drop by the post office to claim a package that was sent by Born Pretty Store again. I knew it was the eyeshadow palette I chose and I was right. So here are swatches and a few shots of the eye makeup I came up with as I was playing with it to de-stress.

I chose this palette because this has lotsa vibrant colours. Since I mostly have greens and dark shades, these will definitely add more life and colour to the EOTDs I do.

Swatches

Top Row

Bottom Row

And the EOTD I came up with. I would like to call this Micko's Sunset. The shades remind me so much of the sunset. So who is Micko and why? Early this morning, my mom and I found out that my nephew, Micko (my cousin's son and only child), passed away due to a motorcycle accident. I won't go further into details but I couldn't look at him in the coffin because he looked so different. I wanted to remember him as the tenacious little boy who grew up to be a fine and responsible young man. Gone too soon and the sun has finally set for him at 16 but I'm sure he's happy where he's at right now.

Used shades 7, 9, 15, and 16 (7 from the top row and 9, 15, and 16 from
the bottom row).

Anyway, I think I will play with this palette some more and hopefully, I can create more looks with it.

Happy Thursday, everyone! :)

Cheers,

Pink Color Instant Cracking Nail Polish from Born Pretty

Howdy? Here's another quick post. I was supposed to review a blush but decided to post something else instead just because. A couple of weeks ago, I received a Cracking Nail Polish from Born Pretty and it took me a while to figure out how to make cracking polishes work. Sorry, I'm not into nail art and polishes as I don't have the incredible talent that other girls have and you already know who these fab ladies are. :P Anyway, please bear with the application and how it looks. I don't even have a clear polish or a top coat.

It's a pretty pink shade that isn't too bold or bright. I was just surprised at how quickly it dries but I guess that's a good thing because you don't have to blow air on your fingers or put your hands right across a fan just for the polish to dry. I had trouble on my first few attempts but I was able to finally get it right. I later on realized that it was in fact easy to use and looks really nice. I've had it for a few days now and what's great is that even if the tip starts chipping off, it won't be too obvious because of the style.

Here's my weak attempt in using a cracking polish. But the good thing is that it cracks so the mistakes won't be too obvious. :P

Overall a really nice and pretty polish. I am not a nail polish person but I like how it looks. You can buy this polish and other nail art tools as well as makeup from Born Pretty Store Anyway, I hope I can do better next time and maybe that one will look better.
Have a great week, you guys. :)
