URBAN DECAY EYESHADOW PRIMER POTION PALOOZA!

Hey everyone! This is finally the Primer Potion Palooza I've been promising you! Basically, I'm going to be telling you what I think about all four of the UD Eye Primer Potions and also showing pictures and what the potions look like actually applied to the lid! I own two of the Primers: Eden & Original, and I used samples of the Greed & Sin Potions, which were enough for me to review them!

URBAN DECAY PRIMER POTION PALOOZA

ORIGINAL


I'm going to start off with the Original Primer Potion! I do own this one, but I figured I would use the sample for pics because my bottle is a little messed up ;) Anyways, basically, it's the primer in the light purple packaging with darker purple writing. It was the first of the potions to be released from the line and retails for $19 for the tube in the United States.


It's a pale nude color but when applied to the lids, it is basically transparent depending on how thick you apply it. Be careful not to layer too many layers of it though, or it'll become goopy! 


On my lids, it is completely transparent, as you can see by the vieny lids (sorry ;) Honestly, it's not my favorite primer of the bunch because it makes my lids a little more oily, but it works good if you are using chunky glitter or something of that nature because it is more sticky. It does last the whole day on me without smudging my shadows or creasing!

LOOK OF THE DAY: SUGAR & SPICE AND EVERYTHING NICE!

Hey everyone! Here's my tutorial I promised ya using the Revlon Copper Spice Quad! I just think that the copper really reminds me of the spices of the holidays and gingerbread men, and especially the fall colors! Anyways, here we go!





LOOK OF THE DAY: SUGAR & SPICE


STEP 1: First off, I primed my lid with my MAC Painterly Paint Pot to prevent creasing or smudging.


For this look, I'm going to be using my Revlon ColorStay Quad in Copper Spice.

HAULIN' TIME: CVS...AGAIN ;D

Hey everyone! Again, sorry I didn't post any posts for the whole last week, it's been super busy with school work and studying for tests pretty much every single day--man I hate those things. Anyways, I managed to stop by CVS and pick up some things so here you are!



HAULIN' TIME: CVS...AGAIN ;D


First off, it was time for me to get a new toothpaste so I'd seen some commercials for this one: Colgate Optic White, and thought I should try it out! I am always looking for things to whiten my teeth anyways, so when I heard that this had the same whitening ingredient as strips and was enamel safe, I was hooked ;D Plus, when I went to CVS, it was the last one... that's a good sign right? ;)


Here's the color: white with little granules. Flavor: Sparkling Mint (: So far, I've used it for a couple of days and really like it, I haven't noticed whitening yet, but I'll give it a week or two. It's very foamy once you start brushing and has a rather strong minty flavor, but bearable.


I also really needed some new nail polish remover, so I decided to get the Strengthening one, cause that's always a plus. And so far, this removes my nail polish very quick and easily, yess ;D


I also really needed to get an anti-residue shampoo to clear up all of the buildup I imagined I probably had, especially since my scalp has been getting dry. So I used this Neutrogena Anti-Residue Formula Shampoo yesterday, and it's like completely cleared up my itchy, dry scalp! So if you have an itchy or dry scalp and you use a lot of products on your hair (like me),  then definitely try this out! It could be the key to your problems..
