So this video is a tutorial for my Royal Sugar Look I previously did here.

First time actually doing a live makeup tutorial. It was so hard to stay under 10 minutes and I do not have a program to merge different  videos so I wasn't able to add an Intro or an Ending. But here it is....feedback welcomed... : )

Sugarpill Loose Eyeshadows

Sugarpill Loose Eyeshadows

I received my second order from Sugarpill Cosmetics! YAY! I ordered 5 more of the loose eyeshadows because I loved the first one (and only) I bought before - Magpie.

 

First off, the color descriptions are dead on for all these colors. I was going to interpret the colors myself based on how they looked on my skin but I really didn't have to since Amy (Shrinkle) does a great job already.


LUMI - Snow white with turquoise sheen and flashing bursts of blue and green.
Nice highlight color to use with greens and blues. I would use this in the inner corner rather than for a brow highlight. 

STARLING - Vibrant, metallic turquoise with intense sheen.
This is darker than I had expected. I was hoping for a light blue but it is still a great color. I can see using this a crease color.

JUNEBUG - Luxurious forest green with a burst of diamonds.
I am happy with this color because I do not have a true dark forest green in my collection.

ROYAL SUGAR - Striking bright blue with a heavenly burst of turquoise diamonds.
Just gorgeous! I love this color. It's it truly a 'royal' blue and is more vibrant dry than wet. I have no clue why...I thought this was the other way around.

ABSINTHE - A mischievous vivid lime green with yellow undertones. Shimmery!
My favorite color of all 5. I mean WOW! This is the most beautiful lime green I have ever seen! Awesome! It's more shimmery when applied dry and subdued when applied wet...

So here are the swatches...
