My Empty Blush Palette!


So, I decided to try and press my Everyday Mineral blushes because I have so many of them that its hard to remember which shades I have w/o having to open each jar. So I purchased this from StarsMakeupHaven.com for $9.99USD + shipping.

You can also buy this palette from CoastalScents.com BUT they raise the prices of shipping! For that reason, I NEVER buy anything from CoastalScents.com. I honestly think they're scammers because all they do is buy their products from China for very low prices, then jack the prices up high and their shipping. So I always look for undiscovered alternative sites that sell the same items. eBay has these palettes as well, but I wanted to give StarsMakeUpHaven.com a try! And I'm really happy with my purchase :)


Sooooooo......look forward to a video on my YouTube account, and a blog post (w/ pics) about me pressing my mineral blushes from Everyday Minerals!!!!!

Review: Milani Sunset Blush Bronzer Duo in Sunset City


So I picked this up from my local CVS for about $6.99USD, and I must say its a pretty good bronzer. For reference, my complexion is Buttered Tan in Everyday Minerals...and last time I checked I was an NC30 in MAC.

This is a blush/bronze duo, majority of it is a bronzer. I swatched the blush with my Luminous blush (also Milani), and its the exact same blush. So if you were eyeing both this and Luminous, all you need is this duo!

You can wear this two different ways. The first way is swirling your brush to pick up both of the colors to mix them together, or put the blush on first and then the bronzer.

The color payoff is great, but I must say it doesnt really last on your face longer than about 3 hours. So you'll have to take it with you for touch ups!
I'll post swatch pictures soon!

XOXO,
Kelsey
