Living It Up

Eyeshadow

To feed my recent interest in eyeshadow (i’ve been surviving on mint green, purple, and blue eyeshadow so far), i decided to diversify into other colours available.  I know that i can’t take pinkish tones (makes me look like my eye kena boxed) but i thought i’ll experiment with browns.

So i bought this “Mocha Latte” eyeshadow from Silkygal last week.  I liked the brown very much… but the “latte” shade had a pinkish undertone and didn’t suit my skin very well.  Yesterday, i was at Parkway Parade with Azure and i decided to try some other shades of brown.  So i bought this 3-shade eyeshadow from Canmake.  Tried it on this morning but had a lot of problems getting the colour to show up on my eye.  It’s like you can apply layer after layer but the colour just doesn’t seem to appear… compared to Silkygal eyeshadow where just 1 stroke of the brush and the colour’s on the eyelid.

Anyway, decided to warn Azure against buying the dud of an eyeshadow.  Here’s an extract of our conversation on MSN.

Me: the canmake eyeshadow is not good. 

Me: very hard to get the colour to appear on the eye. 

Me: not good. 

Me: don’t buy.

Azure: ok.

Azure: they should rename it to canNOTmake it.

Wahahahaha… corny.
