Stila Kitten Eyeshadow

Ok, I caved. It seems that every beauty blog I read has some mention of Stila's Kitten eyeshadow. Now I know why, it is gorgeous. I love the pinky champagne color and the amazing shimmer/sparkle, it seems like it would suit a variety of skin tones.

 My only complaint is that if used without a primer you get some fallout, and you might have to clean up your under eyes after. But you can really use this everywhere, inner corner highlight, all over the lid, or  brow highlighter.

While it is on the expensive side at $18, you get 2.6 grams which is much more than MAC's 1.5 grams, I now understand why it is considered a 'cult classic' of the makeup world.

DiorShow Black Out Mascara

Initially I was very disappointed in this product. While very black like the name says it is has a lot of extra product on the wand.

Unless I want really clumped together lashes I have to scrape off the excess on the side of the tube. I don’t feel like I have the time to make sure I have taken enough product off of the wand to avoid lash clumping. If I do take the time, I really like how the mascara looks. Once I had the mascara for a couple weeks it dried out a bit and the clumping problem was gone! I didn't have to scrape off excess product and it worked great. I won't be buying this product again, I feel like for the money, I shouldn't have to wait weeks for the product to dry out to get what I want. ($25 for .33oz)

Kat Von D's Tattoo Liner in Trooper

Kat Von D’s Tattoo Liner in Trooper kinda kicks some ass. Seriously though, it is super black and doesn’t budge, and this is coming from a girl with oily eyelids. This is what I expect from a company when they call their liner; a tattoo liner. It doesn’t set completely matte, but it doesn’t have that sheen that some other black liners will give you.

This isn't your momma's liner, because this allows for a seriously bad ass flick. The brush tip is really awesome allowing for a thin line, and holds up. This means that with use my eyeliner hasn’t gotten squished at the top or is now ridiculously bendy, and over all, just crap. It doesn’t have the wear and tear that a felt tip eyeliner can get after just a couple of uses. ($18 for .02oz)
