Gold, Olive and Brown Smokey Fall look with Morgana Minerals

I got up at my normal time (6:30 am) and instead of letting myself take the time to wake up fully, I did a makeup look while sipping...OK gulping down a HUGE cup of coffee. I don't think I look tired, but my eyelids tend to be puffy and weird for the first couple hours after waking up, so it was a little weird to apply makeup right away.

Also, I don't think I have ever said this before but Morgana Minerals has become my fav makeup brand. I think inside I've known it for a while but I've never posted about it. I just really love the eyeshadows, lipsticks and glitter so much! I find myself wanting to reach for my Morgana stash more than anything. I've also done more makeup looks in the past year with Morgana Minerals more than any other brand. It's like Morgana Minerals was made for ME! :-)  OK like a dork, I said Morgana Minerals too many times!
Does anyone have a particular brand they feel this way about? I would love to hear what is your all time fav and why.

So here's my look. I'm still not fully awake so I hope I describe the application correctly!

Yellow, Orange, Pink and Purple + Glitter look with Sugarpill Cosmetics

Soooo I was wondering if anyone would be up for trading some specific stuff with me. I'm interested in getting Sugarpill's loose eyeshadows, but I don't have room for the jars right now, nor do I want to pay $12 a jar for stuff I might not care for that much. I would like some samples in tiny baggies to save room. So I thought I would ask anyone who has the shadows if you would like to trade some samples with me so that I may try them. If anyone is interested, lemme know! Of course I have lotsa Aromaleigh shadows, TKB shadows/glitter, Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tars, Fyrinnae shadows etc. available to make samples to trade.
Please contact me if you wanna work something out: em at moonmaiden dot us

Thanks!

Now here's the look. It's more vibrant than I normally do. Jason said I look like I was beat up by a clown...
I'll have a more toned down look coming for you tomorrow.

Bronzed Golden Wine Glitter look with Morgana Minerals

This look was done using more shades from the Limited Edition collection and some gold glitter from Morgana that I have had for a long time. I was going for a sort of romantic evening look.
I ordered the new Kryolan Shimmering Vision 18 colour eyeshadow palette. I just received it and wanted to try it right away! It's a palette with creamy eyeshadow that can be worn alone or as bases. I got the palette to use them as bases and to try them on my water line. I will do a post more about it later with swatches! I applied this look using the palette. :-)
mmmm sparkles!
