GDE April OTM: Ladies Love "Fellas Love Yella!"

     I am finally able to share photos of the OTM!  My computer is pretty sick and on its last life, so I had to play around a bit with my photo card to finally get it to work. Thanks for the patience! :) On that note:

  

     This April's OTM arrived in a bag with a  beautiful golden foil damask design! I'm a huge fan of damask patterns, so it was lovely to see.

     The bag opened to reveal delicious Lemonheads (appropriate to the color), pigment, and description card with additional business cards.

The pigment itself is called Fellas Love Yella:

     Glamour Doll Eyes describes Fellas Love Yella as "A pale yellow marigold yellow with golden/copper shimmer.  Safe for eyes, lips, nails, face."  It reminds me very much of the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 Hour Cream Gel Shadow in Bold Gold, with more of a yellow pop to it. I think this would serve as a great top color to wear over the gel shadow, or in its own glory with primer, since I tend to have major creasing problems with the Color Tattoos.

     For the following look, I applied Ahoy Sailor all into the lid and crease, Premonition on outer crease, and Skin of a Killer in the brow bone and inner corner of the eye. Then I brushed Fellas Love Yella on the top of my lid and lined it in the inner rim of my bottom lashes for that burst of color!

Sandy Beaches- EOTD featuring Glamour Doll Eyes

FTC Notice: All items were purchased out of pocket.    

      Hi everyone! First off, I would really like to thank everyone who visits and checks on my page- I appreciate it more than you know. My schedule is a little strange for now since I recently started a new job, but I have several future ideas set and would like to implement an e-mail notification list and Facebook page in the near future.

With flash.

     For this look, I patted a little Glamour Doll Eyes Control Freak primer all over the eye area.  Next, I brushed Mannequin onto the lid.  It's a beautiful sheer neutral that has a gorgeous sheen in the light.  Using Peep Show from the Easter 2013 Collection, I brushed all along the crease, above the lid. It's a pretty, pale matte blue shade.  To give a nice pop, I brushed Celestial Crow into the outer half of the crease and outer "v."  It is a highly-pigmented, super shimmery blue with loads of glitter in it. Next, I applied Skin of a Killer onto the brow bone and inner corner. To finish off the eye, I used my finger to dab a little Hippity Hop from the Easter 2013 Collection onto the center of the lid. It was a mystery color being sold, and is a matte sea foam green. It puts just a slight variation of texture and color on the neutral lid.

With flash.

     For the lips, I applied the Shiro Cosmetics' Ridiculously Photogenic Intertube on as a base, and topped Triple Dog Dare on top for added shine.
