Back to School Haul: Beauty Edition

I did quite a bit of damage but now I have decided to take project pan once again, for how long? I'm not sure yet. Keep you posted, but enjoy this haul in the meantime! xx

And I got a new baby :) I had been using Tyler's for a while and he insisted I get my own! I got the Nano in the Gunmetal color. I'm in love.

Really Easy Everyday Eye


I would hardly call this a tutorial, rather just a quick explanation of what I do on the weekends when my plans consist of laundry and cooking, with an evening movie at home with our roommates. Enjoy nevertheless. xx

Start with a bare eye.

Next take a cream eyeshadow of choice, here I'm using Flatter Me by Benefit.

Just blend simply with a clean finger, up to the crease and blend it into nothing to the brow bone. Also on an angled brush, take a little bit of the cream shadow under the lower lash line.

Next take a volumizing mascara, here using Bare Escentuals Buxom Lash



And you're done!
