"100 Strokes" Eyeshadow Look

Hey, everyone!! I bought a new eyeshadow from Mac yesterday. It's called "100 Strokes." It is SOOOOOO beautiful! I decided to create a look with it today, and I really love how my look turned out! I really think that the Blackened Red glitter really added a POP to this look, but it is optional.

FACE:

Mac Studio Tech

Mac Studio Fix

Mac Studio Finish concealer

Black Radiance Plum Sorbet blush

Black Radiance Summer Shimmer bronzer

EYES:

Mac 100 Strokes

MAC Warm 6 Intriguing Eyes Palette

MAC Reflects Blackened Red

Black Radiance Ebony

Black liquid eyeliner

Black eyeliner pencil

Rimmel Glam'eyes Black mascara

LIPS:

Milani Mystique Mauve Lipstick

"Kim Kardashian Smoky Eye"

This was just a basic eyeshadow tutorial I put together. I did NOT do a full face of make-up (no foundation, blush, bronzer, etc.). Just the eyes. I thought it would be a good eyeshadow look that people could do if they are make-up beginners, since it only requires two eyeshadow colors. I hope that the tutorial is helpful! Constructive criticism always appreciated.

Products Used:

EYES:

Make-Up Organization!!

I know I said I was going to do a blog about brushes next. But I decided to do a post about my new make-up organization, because I am so excited!!! (Sorry, Ebonie!) :o) I have finally found a way to organize my make-up that I am happy with!! I wanted to share with you all. I bought a sterilite 5-drawer plastic container at Target. It was $16.99 plus tax.

The first drawer holds all of my eyeshadows, including pigments and any palettes I may have:

The second drawer holds my facial products (i.e., foundations, blushes, powders, etc.) and my lip products (glosses and lipsticks):

The third drawer has all of my other eye products, such as mascara, eyeliners, and false lashes:

The fourth drawer currently is just holding my make-up brushes. I plan on adding to my collection soon. :o)

The last and biggest drawer holds all of my nail products, including my many nail polishes:

Hopefully my pictures will help you come up with some ideas for organizing your own make-up! I got some of my inspiration from You tube and doing a search on Yahoo. I also recycled my old make-up organization case along with my new organization idea.

I also want to point out that I don't think I have a lot of make-up. I am a firm believer that you don't need to buy a lot of products to look good. :o)

Have a good night!
