Still Glamorous Pigments.

Hey Dolls! I wanted to share some pigments I had gotten on Black Friday from Still Glamorous Cosmetics.

I love using pigments, they are such a versatile product and can always make your eyes look gorgeous. I picked up 5 shades at only $3/each (due to the sale they were having) but they're still at a good price of $6.50/each.

I'm really enjoying using these pigments, they go on smoothly, and last a long time. I was also sent a sample of another pigment with my order which was a nice gesture.

The only negative thing I can mention is that my order took over a month to arrive which was outrageous!

Other than that, these are a great addition to my makeup collection.

Has anyone tried Still Glamorous Cosmetics? Any thoughts on pigments in general?

Kim Kardashian Inspired Eye Makeup.

Hello my dearest Dolls! I think it was about time that I did a Kim Kardashian inspired look, who happens to be my style icon. Many of you probably know that I'm a huge fan. Kim always has flawless makeup and since she is not a big follower of bright and loud lips, her eye makeup is always stunning and automatically turns her into a diva. Let's recreate!

How I did my eye makeup:


1) First apply a primer on your eyelids. I used MAC's Paint Pot in "Painterly"
2) Then apply a light nude shadow all over your eyelids going up to your brows. I used MAC's Pigment in "Naked" my all time favorite pigment.
3) Then take a small brush and blend a brown eyeshadow into the crease of your eyelids. This will define your eyes and make them look more deep-set giving that sultry and sexy appearance. I used "Cocoa Puff" from the Natural Eye Palette from Two Faced (awesome palette!)
4) Then use an eyeliner to line your eyes and wing them out like in my pictures. I used MAC's Fluidline in "Blacktrack" with a small angled brush.
5) Afterward line the bottom and remaining part of your eye with a black pencil eyeliner. Also use a brush or a q-tip to slightly smudge the pencil so it's not to harsh looking. Don't forget to do your waterline. If you can do the waterline on the upper lid too. I used a black pencil from Tommy G.
6) Time for false eyelashes, my favorite part. They transform you! I used eyelashes that I had ordered from Hong Kong, you can use whatever works for you. I only recommend you spend money on a good eyelash glue. We must be careful what we put on our eyes! Also for a super vixen look, add 2 pairs of lashes one on top of the other. I've been doing it lately and I don't see myself ever going back to only one pair.
7) Finish off with black mascara on your bottom lashes and on the top to stick your real lashes with the false ones. I used MAC's Zoom Mascara.





I hope you all enjoyed this look and let me know if you tried it out! Wishing everyone a happy 1st of the month, kisses!

Lancome Event At The Mall Athens.

Today me and Dimitirios Konstandopoulos attended the Lancome event that is taking place at The Mall Athens. There I had the honor of having my makeup done by Lancome's head makeup artist in Greece, Panos Ermidis.

It was awesome to be taken care of by such a talented artist and he did such a beautiful job, I absolutely loved the look he did on me!

The event will take place until this Saturday July 30th at The Mall Athens in front of Galerie de Beaute on level 1. It's a great opportunity for any Doll to try out Lancome products, have their makeup done and to try out their new mascara 'Hypnose Doll Eyes' (a perfectly named mascara for all my Dolls).

Enjoy the pictures!

Tommy G Dual Transfer Lipgloss in No.4: Review & Look.

Lately I have been missing summer's warm and fun days and especially all the bright colors we wear, either in make up or clothing. But a season is not a reason to keep you back from enjoying bright and fun colors!

I really missed wearing yellow eyeshadow so yesterday I took the chance to create a look with a fun bright shade and a new lipgloss I had purchased recently.




 What I'm wearing

Face:
- MAC Studio Finish Concealer in NW25
- Tommy G Long Wear Foundation in No.2
- YSL Matte Touch Primer
- YSL Top Secret Primer
- Tommy G Compact Powder in No.605 (for contouring)
- MAC Blush in "Pink Swoon"
- MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural Powder in "Medium Plus"

Eyes:
- Any Jumbo White Eye Pencil (for the waterline)
- YSL Volume Effet Faux Cils Mascara
- MAC Plush Lash Mascara (on lower lashes only)
- MAC Eyeshadow in "Sunny Spot" (all over eyelids)
- Tommy G Eyeshadow in no.1032 (all over eyelids as well)
- MAC Fluidline in "Blacktrack"
- Sephora Black Eyeliner

Lips:
- Tommy G Dual Transfer Lipgloss in No. 4



The product consists of a lip color and a gloss to top it off. The lip color applies on smoothly and has a soft texture. After you have applied the lip color it dries out creating a long lasting almost matte effect. You can eat, drink and yes, even kiss and your lip color will be more intact than other. If you want a glassy and fuller effect top of the lip color with the clear lipgloss on the other side. I always do this, I love my lips to look full and juicy.



Overall: ♥♥♥♥♥ 

 Product: 5/5 ♥   Durable, lasts, great texture and smells amazingly (seriously like vanilla frosting)
 Packaging: 5/5 ♥  Simple and cute, the double-end wand comes in handy in your bag.
 Price: 5/5 ♥  At just 13 euro this 2 in 1 is very well priced for what it offers.


I would definitely purchase this again and can't wait to try out other colors from the line's range!
