Lime Crime Makeup Aquataenia Swatches

I finally got my hands on Lime Crime Makeup's Palette in Aquataenia. I had been wanting to try out their palettes since China doll came out but just never got around to it. I decided to purchase this particular one because I fell in love with the bright colors.

The packaging/case of the tin palette is really cute. The image is embossed on the case.

 All of the colors in this palette are pearlescent which can give off more of a glittery effect.
The color swatches very easily as well with great color payoff.








The colors are above (left to right):
Nautilus Prime-blurple
Coral of the story- true coral
Seahorse Discourse- tropical green
Pearl-pl- pearlescent lilac
Atlanteal-Seafoam blue/green

Here are a few swatches using no eyeshadow base or flash.
The colors are gorgeous and I can't wait to try them.

Love & Hip Hop: Karlie Redd Inspired Makeup Tutorial

I'll be the first to admit that I enjoy the "Love & Hip Hop" reality show on VH1. I do have my favs and others that just urk me to death (Stevie!). However, Karlie Redd has intrigued me during the show and I have been loving her makeup. I was inspired to do a makeup look that I think she consistently is rocking during most of the episodes.

She keeps it neutral with just a touch of a smokey eye. She also has a very contoured nose and jaw line. Her hair is also for the most part always long and bone straight.
