'Crystal Leaves' Look

'Crystal Leaves' Look

Happy Friday! For this look I'm using mainly Inglot products since they are now take over-the-phone orders! I really love their pigments and I'll definitely being checking out some more next time I venture into NYC. I'm so glad the pictures actually show the glowy effect of the lid color too....I was worried that the effect would be lost on camera.

What are your weekend plans? Did anyone pick up their items from the MAC Venomous Villains Collection yesterday? I *accidentally* went in to MAC and got the My Dark Magic MES, Bite Of Apple Blush (which I was avoiding...but the collector in me wanted it) and a back-up of the Magically Cool Liquid Powder in Cajun.

Note - I added links to the products in case you guys were interested. This way you can see pictures of what I used.
