Nene Leaks Sophisticate's Black Hair Magazine Inspired Makeup

Hey Dolls!

This FOTD is from September 29  I'm sad to say I haven't really been wearing makeup the month of October. I think I've worn make up like maybe 2 times in October :( I've been so drained and Busy!
But Anywhoos.... It was a Saturday and I finally had some free time so I wanted to play in my makeup. I recently got the new Sophisticate's Black Hair Magazine with Nene Leakes on the cover and I spotted Purple eyeshadow. I have a weakness for Purple! Ya''ll know I love purple and I'm starting to think I have a serious problem because now I want purple hair. Well not the whole thing purple just my tips. ;0)
 Well, I tried to do my makeup similar to Nene's and here's what I came up with.

Here's Nene's makeup for the magazine

Nene makeup was so much lighter.

Review: Raving Beauty Eyeshadows + Swatches

Hey Dolls!

This week I got my order of sample pigments from Raving Beauty Cosmetics. I first heard about Raving Beauty Cosmetics on youtube. I was so excited to see how the colors looked on me. I order seven. The colors I order are Pure Gold, Sunset Orange, Infinty, Dark Truffle, Carbon, Romance, and Exotic Bloom. Oh yeah and I got a color called Raving Bronze.

I order 7 samples of eyeshadows. The colors I order are Pure Gold, Sunset Orange, Infinty, Dark Truffle, Carbon, Romance, and Exotic Bloom. Oh yeah and I have a color called Raving Bronze.

Swatches

fisrt row: Pure Gold, Romance, Sunset Orange, Raving Bronze
Seond row: Exotic Bloom, Infinty, Dark Truffle, and Carbon

The Good
-I love how the colors are so pigmented and vibrant.
-Most mineral eyeshadows you have to apply a base to pick up the color, but the colors were very pigmented and I didnt need to apply a base.

The Bad-I didnt find anything that I didnt like about the eyesahdows.

Where can I purchase Raving Beauty Cosmetics? www.ravingbeautycosmetics.ecrater.com

How much are they? Eyeshadows come in a 5 gram jar for $5.00 or a sample eyeshadow in a zip lock baggie for $1.00

A HUGE thanks to Annette for making Raving Beauty Cosmetics!

‘till next time Dolls!
