Hello my beauties,

I haven't posted an MOTD in a while but wanted to share with you a look using the buxom customizable palette. I did pick out shimmery shadows opposed to mattes because I wil never replace or dupe my Kat von D shade and light eye palette! Therefore the buxom is a partner in this type of beauty crime <3these eyeshadows surprisingly did not have any fallout for me. SURPRISINGLY because I expected shimmery shadows to have tons of fallout like the urban decay solstice :( I returned that with the quickness. These are also easy to blend like no other, these remind me of nyx prismatic eyeshadows with MUCH more pigment. Did I mention they're pretty?

Complexion Products:

Too Faced Born This Way in the shade Warm Beige - I think this shade is a tad darker than my skin tone I am not sure about that but I kind of evened it out using the concealer. This foundation feels VERY light on my skin, I agree with their claim of it lookin and feeling skin like. I have no opposition to that. This can be a good everyday foundation. I'm combo skin and it's a perfect match to my skin type. I'm unsure of how this will work for oily skin, because I think it's pretty dewy. I like dewy so it's no problem for me. It's still not my number one choice foundation I recently am loving the new ultra MUFE hd.

Urban decay naked skin concealer in medium light neutral

Kat Von D shade and light contour palette in Sombre for contour and Lyric to set concealer.

100% pure powder in peach bisque to set foundation

100% pure bronzer in cocoa glow - another new product I've been using. This must be the most realistic bronzer shade I've ever tried. It's a very sunkissed warm finish and will not be multi use as a "contour"

100% pure blush in raspberry - The newest blush I own and it's so opaque this thing will last me years. One tap is all I need and the shade is to die for. It's the perfect flush of rosey pink and matches me very well. I have another called healthy but it is too warm for me sadly. Another plus, all natural ingredients for all you natural lovers out there

Becca x Jaclyn Hill champagne Pop highlighter - replaced my trusty beloved Mary loumanizer, perfect shade not too peachy for me, and major bling! enough said.

EYES:

Kat Von D shade and light eye palette in LAETUS to set eye primer, then Samael as my transition shade.

Buxom shadows: I started with NO FAUX on the outer corner and winging the end. Then I applied WILD NIGHTS on the center of my lid, then I used ROOM SERVICE in the inner third of my eyelid. For the lower lashline I used LA LA LAVISH all throughout then deepening the lower waterline with urban decay VOODOO eyeliner then smoked it out using a pencil brush to blend with the lavish shadow. Lastly I used SILK SHEETS for the brow bone and inner corner of the eye

Inglot 77 gel eyeliner using a Mac eyeliner brush and sigma small eyeliner brush

House of lashes in bombshell

100% pure mascara in Blackberry

Anastasia Beverly hills pomade in medium brown and blonde

Urban decay lipgloss in kinky

Questions for fun:

1. Did you pick any eyeshadows from buxom?

2. How old do you think I am?  ;P

You are absolutely beautiful Livi! Your makeup skill is incredible :) the only criticism I have is to blend the eyes a little more, however it may only be a fault of the camera.
Age-wise, I'd say early 20s

Hannah thank you!! I actually blended a lot at first then I ended up with shimmery muck mess. LOL so I did it again and blended it slightly so my shadows show. As I mentioned these are super easy to blend where you have to be careful... Yikes!

I absolutely love the dark hair and the make up is perfect. Ugh I have to get champagne pop but its ok because I don't own any of Becca's powder highlighters :)

Les, thank you my beautiful honey buns!! Buxom did a really great job with their shadows I'm still on the hunt for one of their gold eyeshadows that is sold out everywhere. And honestly, my roots on my hair was down to my eyes and I looked super ridiculous LOL therefore back to black I go so I don't have to maintain it ever again. I'm happy to be boring haha.

What a great look! Very pretty :-) I love your wing too! I haven't tried anything from buxom but these eyeshadows are on my list for my trip to new york. I'd say you are in your early 20's, 23 maybe?

Jul 27, 2015

Livi H.

Hey Rebecca thanks so much, what colors are you planning to pick? They're all so beautiful it was hard for me to pick!

You got contacts they look nice I've been wanting some colored ones but turns out they don't make them in my eye shape lucky you ☺😳... I really like the blending and I'm happy to know the shadows are good I'm actually thinking of getting one of there pre made palettes, I was actually going to guess 27 on age lol I was still off lol�...

Jul 28, 2015

Livi H.

Haha Lili! I know...I'm older than what most people think. Which is probably will be good when I'm in my 50s. Yes I actually have been wearing colored contacts for years, but only use it when I go out. I'm so cheap like that lmao. I'm wearing hazel in this one. Thank you these buxom palettes sold out very quickly so if you can get your hands on one, you'd be so happy with it. My friend has the buxom dolly and the nudity palette and they are so pretty! I was also looking to get the nudity palette but I was like yeah I don't need another nude palette.
