Okay y'all, today I went ahead and did my makeup with the new Kat Von D Metal Crush shadows that I got! I asked my mom what color to do my shadow today and she said green, so I ended up using Iggy, Electric Warrior and Static Age! Iggy is the deep green, Electric Warrior is the lime green and Static Age is the bright silver on my inner corners.

These shadows are amazing! They're super soft, they apply beautifully and stay super true to color. I used flat shader brushes to apply them by patting them onto my lids, but when I went over the edges a bit with windshield wiper motions it didn't dull the colors or the shine. They are also incredibly easy to blend together, the texture and pigmentation on them doesn't change when you do, and they create new, gorgeous colors. I will say that there was a touch of fallout but nothing at all major and it was easily cleaned up. All in all, I think these shadows are beautiful, amazingly pigmented and wonderful quality. If these interest you, I strongly recommend going to pick them up!

Additional products used include:
-Kat Von D Shade and Light Eye palette (not my favorite, but good for building eye looks on)
-Urban Decay Primer Potion
-Urban Decay 24/7 Liner in Zero
-Tarteist Clay Paint Liner
-Touch in Sol Stretchex mascara
-Stila Lush Plumping Lip Primer
-YSL Glossy Pop lip gloss in 207
-Tarte Cheek Stain in Blissful

The jury is still out on the Tarte liner since I just used it right along my lashline, but I cab say with authority that the YSL gloss is 100% for me. I adore it, it's such a pretty color and it's so easy to just throw on for the day. So, here's my look, and of course comments, questions, suggestions and opinions are very welcome :)

Also, it's sort of a lazy gal's cut crease, I know that the greens aren't blended out, but they're not supposed to be :)

Green is really a perfect color for you!

I love it!! I'm thinking of getting some green eyeshadow tomorrow... This is just gorgeous!! I haven't been wearing much makeup at all lately, I'm off my game!

We're going to Sephora, remember?? You can look at all of them :) thanks so much, I've been a little out of it lately but of course makeup makes everything better. I also brought Danzig and Raw Power with me so expect some red and purple eyeshadow in the near future! Haha.

Soo pretty! I think it'd also look cool with the inner corner color placed like halfway across the lid instead of just the inner (I know that's not what you were going for I just think that'd look nice!) love the greens!

Don't worry Julie I plan on doing a lot of experimenting with these, I'm sure I'll do that at some point! :) thanks so much.

Thanks Sandra! I can't wait either, I wish I could do multiple looks in a day.

Haha! I'd be getting some weird looks on this airplane, that's for sure. Tomorrow, though...

The green is blended enough to see the color the way it's intended to be! I understand trying to go for a couple colorful looks, then over blending totally beats the purpose. I've done a couple looks that were critiqued that it needed more blending, but I totally get you and I love how you love color! The Lippy is gorgeous!!

Thanks Livi :) I actually think you would really like them! They're a great compliment to the Shade and Light palette.

Omg! Those are very pretty. I'm attracted to the maroon, silver, and that green!

The maroon is on my radar for tomorrow's makeup look, so we'll see how it goes!! They're really all so gorgeous and super worth it.

Yeah I saw them! I'm still in love with Iggy I have to get it.

Iggy is definitely pretty, but my favorite still might be Electric Warrior, it's just so crazy!!
