All of My Purple Life

All of My Purple Life

As many are already aware, MAC invited a few bloggers to create their own eyeshadows and lipglosses for a collection called Bloggers’ Obsessions. I’m on a self imposed makeup restriction, so I only purchased one item: All of My Purple Life lipglass created by the lovely Afrobella. This is a very pretty, warm purple gloss with shimmer. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on who you ask) the collection is sold out. However, MAC does intend to restock all items. So get on over to their website and sign up to be notified when it’s back and make sure you get it!

If you’ve been on twitter since the launch of this collection, then you’ve probably seen supporters posting pics of them wearing this lipglass. Since I’m slow, I’m just now uploading my own pictures. So here they are: I wore it by itself and then over MAC’s Pink Friday, MAC’s Lavendar Whip, Cover Girl Lip Perfection’s Divine and Makeup Forever’s Rouge Artist Intense in #15.

Summer Sparkle

Summer Sparkle

Recently, Makeup Artist Tiffany Marie Scott posted a youtube video on how to create your own summer body oil. Who doesn’t love a little sparkle and glow in their lives? It seemed easy enough so I wanted to create my own version.

What I used:

  • MAC Gold Deposit MSF
  • MAC Melon Pigment
  • OCC Authentic Pigment
  • Lit Glitter in Cowgirl and Beach Baby (not shown)
  • Sugarpill Goldilux Pigment
  • Ruby Kisses All Over Glow Powder
  • Baby Oil

Does that sound like a lot of stuff? Yes, well I started with maybe three of those items and as I was mixing I started thinking “Oh! I have x,y,z…” You know how it goes. Anyway, I love how it turned out! Unfortunately I couldn’t capture the sparkle on camera like I wanted, but trust me I feel like Edward when I walk into the sunshine, lol! If you haven’t already, try to find other uses for that makeup stash that doesn’t get as much use as you intended.
