Hummingbird Heartbeat




Bonjour! Long time no post, sorry about that! Life has been taking priority, and probably school has taken center stage. I have an AP exam next Friday, that I am absolutely thrilled about. I had a nice relaxing day, picked up some stuff for my face at the mall.. other than that I did nothing :) So i decided to  release some of my emotions through this look (since my eye is my canvas). People are stressing me out, specifically that of males.  I wanted to convey a sense of an alternate reality in which a forest nymph is the focus. I feel if I was any mythical creature at all, I am pretty confident that I would be something along the lines of a mermaid or a fairy. I still wish sometimes, and even think sometimes that i am in my fantasy world in my head, because everything is so... just so! I got inspired to name this after Katy Perry's song, because I felt it appropriate. Everything about the song is perfect, the lyrics, the back round music. Well.. I hope you enjoyed this, and if you have any requests just let me know!

Too Faced Shadow Insurance Glitter Bonding: First Impression


 I picked this up when I went to Ulta on Tuesday, primarily because Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy was a total miss for me. I wouldn't bash it because I know a lot of people that like it, but it worked for a couple days then became incredibly "clumpy" and my eyeshadow balled up. So needless to say, I wanted another eyeshadow base that made my eye shadows/ glitter pop and adhere so well. I heard about they released it, and saw it and gave it a try. 
First Impression on this, it has the same feel as TFSI the regular one, but it is a tad pinker toned, and it is slightly stickier. It also has a very, very faint smell. But it is noticeable. Nothing crazy or that would irritate sensitive eyes, it goes away once it is on the skin. I like the packaging, I have always liked Too faced primers packaging. The holo glitter on the package where it says "Glitter bonding" is a nice touch as well :P In the last picture you will notice that I tried it out with an Eyekandy Glitter and on one side it is normal Too Faced Shadow Insurance and then next to it is the glitter bonding on! Amazing right? I will update once I test it out for a while :)

I was (and am still) amazed with the sparkles and shimmer, and duochrome in these lovelies!! And get this NO pixie Epoxy! Can you Imagine what this would look like with Pixie Epoxy?!?! It would blow your freakin' mind!!

Eye Kandy Swatches & Review


So About a week or so ago I bought these Lovelies at my local facial/beauty place. On the way out of my lasering session I saw a display of these puppies, and was immediately drawn to the sparkly, pretty colors! I was so excited!! I chose two colors to come in this "Kit" that was about 24$. This kit includes two glitters of your choice, a brush to apply the glitter with, and a mixing medium to stick to the glitter. I got the colors in "Candy corn", which their website described as a light copper color (think the color of Candy corn ) is a super fine glitter meaning that it is the easiest and most wanted "formula" for glitters. The other color I purchased is called "Candy Cane" ( do you pick up on the Holiday theme?!?!?) The website describes that it is a Fuschia dark pink ( pretty accurate) and this is also a super fine glitter. Overall I really like these! It says in the instructions to first apply a darker eyeliner underneath the glitter to make it really POP! In my experience It did not flake on me, and it did not move!! I tried it on my hand first, and tried to rub it off .. and by gosh it wouldn't come off!! No matter how hard I rubbed!


Here is the Mixing medium called "Liquid Sugar". I was pretty much sold after seeing this! another plus about it is you get a whole lot of product!! 1 oz. for a Mixing medium is a lot of product and good for about 250 applications. It makes the glitter stick all day!!

My least favorite part of the kit. A crappy little pink brush that is bent, may I add, and is about the size of my pinky finger. It has in between a rough and semi soft feel to it. Mine was bent to I don't use it. I found that my Sephora bent liner brush applies this way better!


Here are the little jars they came in. Each Jar says it has a net weight of 5 grams, but I don't know how much is actually in the jar ( product wise). But on each jar it says "Sprinkles" Eye and body glitter. Each Jar also comes with a sifter which is a plus.


It applies pretty nice, It can streak and leaves blotches of no glitter, which makes sense why the company says to put a dark eyeliner underneath. I put "Candy Cane" on today over top of black eyeliner and I got many compliments!


Overall I would suggest these too anyone is head over heals about glitter, or just likes some Oumph in their life, or rather everyday look! I love these and definitely will be buying more of these!! You can buy them here for $7. 50 each, or you can buy the kit like I did and for every glitter you buy it is only $6.00. They also sell minerals and other cosmetics. This website also goes primarily through PayPal, if you are like me and under nay circumstances will not go through PayPal don't worry and look HERE To see if any store near you have any :)
