MAC Venomous Villains - My Dark Magic Mineralized Eyeshadow

I am a big fan of MAC Mineralized line and these shadows are up my alley. I love the depth of these colors, love the sparkles and the fact that with just little bit of Fix+ these  shadows turn into awesome eyeliners. If you feeling like rocking some deep fun smokey eyes - go for it! "My Dark Magic" is a great hue of purple and blueish tones with some drama and for long staying power please don't forget to use eyeshadow base. I swatched color without base and I can see the difference in application, and in not a good way. For something so chunky and glittery you have to have your primer.

Mascara gone bad

OK, I think it's time for my first negative review of a makeup product. I have to say, that I am not that picky when it comes to mascara. All it has to do is give me some nice volume and make my short lashes appear slightly longer. At this point I have about 6-7 mascaras that I am trying and sadly I am very disappointed with Maybelline Volum' Express the Falsies Washable Mascara. 
First of all I have a problem with a brush. Sides of it look pretty good but front part is kinda flat and it is totally doing weird things to my lashes, like depositing too much of mascara on certain areas. Second - is the formula itself. Super clumpy! I mean my lashes looked like a big mess! I am a makeup artist (keep in mind) and I can truly say this is not a "false lashes" effect. 
Despite my disappointment, I will try to use it a few more times, maybe our relationship will turn in the right direction but I doubt it. Too bad, because actually I used to love some of their mascaras. What about you? Do you have any mascaras that just not working for you?

MAC Louder, please - Dare to wear color

Wanted to share my recent dramatic look, with my new favorite eyeshadow "Louder,please" from MAC Dare to Wear collection.
You have to excuse my short lashes, I didn't have time to put false lashes on, so I feel like this makeup is not finished.
What I used: Painterly paint pot, Louder, please e/s, Carbon e/s, Shroom e/s (highlight) and Blacktrack fluidline - all by MAC

Chanel "Enigma"



Okay dolls, I finally got my hand on the already famous "Enigma" Chanel palette and I think I found my new favorite. 
All 4 shades are just great for smoky-eye lovers. Beautiful shimmery  light pink is great for highlight, medium-tone brown with an olive hue is perfect for all over or crease. But my favorites are the steel-chocolate gray and purply deep-purple shades. Love-love-love them. I can create the perfect smokey eye that is suitable for work or play. Texture is incredible, this is actually one of the best that I've ever tried, super silky and smooth.  Blends very easy and staying power is superb.
If you loving dramatic, sexy "bedroom" eyes, please do stop by your local Chanel counter and test this palette out before it's sold out. You'll be glad you did.
