Glamour Doll Eyes Look | Sparkling Rainbow

It's been a while since I've done a bright, colorful, glittery look, but I had a rush of creativity so I grabbed some Glamour Doll Eyes shadows and ran with it. GDE is often what I reach for when doing bright looks. Even the glitter on my bottom lashline is from GDE! Check my product list below to find out what I used.

Bare Escentuals True Gold and Angel | Gold and Violet Eyes

Yup. Another look featuring Bare Escentuals. This time though, instead of using The Playlist palette, I'm using two beautiful bareMinerals eyecolors. Angel (bottom lashline), one of the brand's newer colors, is a bright and vibrate, matte violet. True Gold (my lid color) is the most gorgeous warm yellow gold. The name says it all. It really is a True Gold.

Featured Blogger: LadycrowX and Glamour Doll Eyes

Hi, my name is Amy aka LadycrowX!

I have been into makeup since 2008 when I got hooked on watching Youtube tutorials. I currently write a blog called The Crow and the Powderpuff where you'll find posts about Makeup Tutorials, Product Reviews, Product Swatches, and anything pertaining to beauty. I am currently in the process of moving further into beauty subjects as well such as Nails, Hair, and Fashion.
I also have a Youtube channel where you can find video tutorials of the looks I do.

In my spare time when I am not blogging or doing makeup you can usually find me playing video games, watching anime, reading, or doing anything involving nerdiness. I enjoy fantasy based movies, books, and games.

I did this look based off an old look I had done a while back and I hope you enjoy it!

Bella Flora Earrings from Jewelmint

Not too long ago, I won a Twitter contest the Buxom and Beautiful hosted and the prize was these lovely Bella Flora earrings from Jewelmint. Absolutely adorable and very well made, packaged beautifully.

They'd be adorable with a dress, heels, a little winged liner on the eyes and glossy lips.

This is Halloween.

Or so it was Halloween...yesterday. Just wanted to share the makeup, nails, and costume I wore.
