Urban Decay Naked 3 Dupes and Looks!

Ever since the Naked 3 palette came out, there has been a lot of talk about it. I have seen a lot of tutorials using it on Youtube. Immediately, since I first heard about it I was thinking about duping it. For some reason, it is more fun for me to find the dupes than to purchase the palette. I already have dupes for the first 2 Naked palettes. This was hard for me to find the dupes in my collection. I have given up a couple of times, to be honest. But I really wanted to dupe the palette, and be able to create the beautiful looks I've been seeing. I heard that this is a good palette for hazel eyes because pink and purple contrast well with the color.

To find the dupes I used websites with swatches, descriptions, and people's own dupes. These are my sources: Allura Beauty's Urban Decay Naked 3 Blog Post, Vampy Varnish's Urban Decay Naked 3 Blog Post, Temptalia's Urban Decay Naked 3 Blog Post, and Diva Makeup Queen's Youtube Video. You can find Mac dupes for this palette on this blog: My Eye Shadow Consultant.

Some of my dupes are the same as others, so I will say if I copied them. Sometimes Temptalia said a color was close, but not a dupe, yet I say they are a dupe. They are close enough for me.

1. Strange: Wet 'n Wild Lust, top left color (my dupe)

2. Dust: Wet 'n Wild Walking on Eggshells, bottom color (Diva Makeup Queen's dupe)

3. Burnout: Wet 'n Wild Sweet as Candy, pink shade (Diva Makeup Queen dupe)

4. Limit: Crown Brushes 36 Color Leopard Print Neutral Palette, 3rd row, 5th color in (Diva Makeup Queen dupe)

5. Buzz: Maybelline Designer Chocolate, crease color (Diva Makeup Queen)

6. Trick: Wet 'n Wild Comfort Zone, 2nd color (Diva Makeup Queen's dupe)

7. Nooner: Lorac Pro Palette, Mauve. (Temptalia says it is more purple. Diva Makeup Queen says it's a dupe. I think it looks the same too.)

8. Liar: Disney Sephora Cinderella Palette in Chateau (Temptalia says it is similar, I say it's a dupe)

9. Factory: Wet 'n Wild Comfort Zone, 3rd color (my dupe)

10. Mugshot: Wet 'n Wild Nutty (Diva Makeup Queen's dupe)

11. Darkside: NYX Butt Naked Palette, middle row, far right color mixed with Maybelline Eye Studio in Taupe Temptress, 2nd color (my dupe). It is a dark taupe mixed with a mauve.

12. Blackheart: Wet 'n Wild Lust, bottom right color (my dupe). This is a dark color with dark pink glitter.

The thing I find is good about the dupes is that none of my dupes are powdery or have fall out. I have heard that Dust and Trick are very glittery and have tons of fall out in the Naked 3 palette. If you don't have my dupes or want to see more inexpensive dupes I highly suggest checking out Diva Makeup Queen's video. She compares her dupes with swatches of the Naked 3, side by side. It's a very good video.

These are the products I used for a lot of the looks.

Concealer: Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Treatment Concealer in Brightener
Eye Shadow Primer: Milani Eyeshadow Primer, Lorac Behind the Scenes Eye Primer
Mascara: Benefit Bad Gal Lash (top lashes), Maybelline Lash Discovery Mini-Brush Waterproof in Very Black (bottom lashes)
Black Gel Liner: Essence Gel Liner in Midnight in Paris
Brown Gel Liner: Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Liner in Brown
Black Eye Liner: Rimmel Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner in Black
Brown Eye Liner: Rimmel Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner in Brown
Black Liquid Liner: Jordana Incolor Fabuliner Liquid Eye Liner in Black
Face Primer: Benefit Porefessional Primer, Neutrogena Shine Control Primer
Foundation: Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Normal/Dry Skin in Ivory
Powder: Elf High Definition Powder in Corrective Yellow, Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in Translucent
Bronzer/Contour: Maybelline Dream Sun Bronzing Powder in Matte Light
Nude Eye Liner: Rimmel Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner in Nude

These are the looks I found on blogs and mainly on Youtube that I wanted to recreate. Since this palette came out around the holidays, a lot of these looks are called "Holiday" somewhere in the title, but I don't think they only look good during the holidays. I think if it is a good look, it will look good any time.

f. Black Eye Liner, waterline, tightline
g. Black Gel Liner, upper lash line, wing
h. Mascara
i. Milani Lipstick in Best Red: Revlon Lip Butter in Cherry Tart
j. Illamasqua Blush in Katie: NYX Blush in Peach
My Thoughts: I like how she doesn't use all the eye shadows in the palette. She keeps it simple, and it looks really elegant. The cheeks look naturally flushed. I love this lip butter because it is a wearable red. I don't feel like a crazy red lipped clown. I feel like Snow White. Does that make sense? xD

r. Factory, lower lash line
s. Jordana Lip Liner in Tawny
t. 2 options for lips plum or nude: Maybelline Lip Elixir in Caviar or Revlon Lip Butter in Creme Brûlée, I used the Revlon Lip Butter.
My Thoughts: I bought the $20 eye liner by Em Michelle Phan in Ro's Gold, and it does not go on my waterline. I'm very disappointed. Even if it did the black liner on the tight line would still smudge on top of the lower waterline. It doesn't look bad though. I heard that NYX just came out with a rose gold eye pencil, and that should be good. And a lot cheaper! I feel stupid for spending $20 for an eye liner! Overall, this is a good look. The cheeks and lips are nude, and the eyes are rose gold with black liner.

4. Naked 3 Mauve and Grey Eye Tutorial by candicemagen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viGxPNUC3wI
a. Maybelline Color Tattoo in Nude Pink: I used my eye primer.

k. Brown Gel Liner, tightline, waterline
l. Blackheart, set the liner
m. Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso
n. L'Oreal Color Riche Balm in Caring Coral: Revlon Lip Butter in Juicy Papaya
My Thoughts: I think this makes my hazel eyes look green. I has mauve on the lid and dark grey on the crease. The eyes are heavily lined. It's a dark, smoky look. I like how she uses a peach blush, rather than a pink blush. It is too much pink if you wear pink on the eye and on the cheeks and lips. I have all of the Revlon Lip Butters! I love the way they feel on the lips. I sprayed Elf Makeup Mist & Set because I thought I looked like I put too much powder on.

5. Soft & Smokey - Naked 3 Makeup Tutorial by MakeupByTiffanyD http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAckkx5HhyY

j. Mascara
k. Brown Eye Liner, waterline

m. Chanel Lipstick in Radieuse: Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Pink Pout
n. MAC Lusterglass in Instant Gold: Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lip Gloss in Crowd Pleaser
My Thoughts: After doing the eyeshadow, I used makeup remover to clean up the sides of the eyes and the inner corners because I felt like I had too much shadow there. I think I use brushes that are too big for my eyes sometimes. The eyes look golden brown. The cheeks have no blush, but bronzer instead. The lips are pink with a golden sparkle. It does look like a soft, smokey eye.

6. Naked 3 Tutorial: Soft Smokey Eye by Dana Marie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mQ38Cb1lW8

m. Concealer
n. Powder
o. Bronzer, cheeks, forehead, neck
p. NARS Blush in Sin: The Balm Blush in Cabana Boy
q. Elf Golden Bronzer, top of cheekbones
r. MAC Lipstick in Angel: Revlon Lipstick in Pink Pout
s. Buxom Lip Gloss in Dolly
My Thoughts: This is a dramatic, purple smokey eye. The cheeks are a warm plum. The lipstick is pink and the lip gloss is a mauvey-plummy pink. I think the mauve colors bring out the green in my hazel eyes. I did do the wing. Practice makes perfect.

7. Naked 3 Soft & Romantic by Nicole Guerriero http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYF-TMVlilc

r. NYX Nude Truffle Lip Liner: Rimmerl Exaggerate Lip Liner in Addiction
s. Lime Crime Lipstick in Coquette: Revlon Lipstick in Pink Pout
t. Bare Escentuals Buxom Lip Gloss in White Russian: NYX Lip Gloss in Frosted Beige
My Thoughts: This has pink on the lids, and mauve in the crease. I didn't put bronzer on because I've been thinking that it looks a little weird on me, when I contour with it. The cheeks are peach, and the lips are a glossy pink. The pink makes the look romantic.

u. Kevyn Aucoin Candlelight Highlighter, top of cheekbones: The Balm Mary Lou-Manizer
v. Rimmel Exaggerate Lip Liner in East End Snob
w. MAC Angel Lipstick: Revlon Pink Pout
x. NYX Butter Gloss in Eclair: Prestige Skin Loving Minerals Lasting Moisture Lip Gloss in Delicate Mauve
My Thoughts: I did the wing, and I think the liner makes the eyes look glamorous. The lids are pink and the crease is a taupe brown. This look really brings out the green in my eyes. I've just noticed for a lot of these looks I've been using Revlon Pink Pout. It is a blue-toned pink. The lip gloss makes the lips mauve. The blush is rosy. This looks like a good Valentine's Day look.

9. Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette Look: Daytime Rose Gold by Beauty Gala http://www.beautygala.com/brands/urban-decay-naked-3-palette-look-daytime-rose-gold/
a. Buzz and Trick on eyelid, blend two together for rose gold
b. Nooner, crease, blending upward
c. Buzz, lower lash line
d. Strange, browbone
e. Nude Eye Liner, waterline
f. Black Eye Liner, small amount upper lash line
My Thoughts: I love rose gold. For bluest I wore Wet 'n Wild Pearlescent Pink. For lips I wore Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Pango Peach. It's an easy and pretty look.

i. Blackheart, over liner upper lash line
j. Black Liquid Liner, upper lash line
k. Mascara
l. YSL Lip Gloss in 202 Rose Jersey: Bonnebell Lip Lites in Grapefruit
My Thoughts: There is pink on the lid, and purple eye liner. There is a mauve color in the crease. I think this is good for hazel eyes. She didn't say what blush, so I chose a peachy pink one: Wet 'n Wild Pearlescent Pink. This would be a good Valentine's Day look too.

Too Faced A Few of My Favorite Things Palette Dupes!

                                                             (Source: Sephora's Website)

I don't remember when I first heard about this palette. It was probably from a blog. I was so enchanted! This is one of my all time favorite songs. It is from "The Sound of Music." This palette derives it's names from the song lyrics. If you have never seen this movie (and you should!) here is a clip of the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3aBB-J9vhg.

I had problems duping this palette. The palette comes with a look book (which I love) and I copied each look with my dupes, but each time I wasn't happy with how they turned out. I didn't want to make a blog post if the looks were no good. But I was so disappointed because I thought this palette was really cool. I think it just goes to show the saying, "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again!" Sorry if I'm being too corny. Today I decided to redo my dupes and look at other blogs. The blog that helped me the most was Temptalia's. She duped this palette already. Some of her dupes were from makeup I had or makeup that I had dupes of! So this was really handy to me. I also love her descriptions. So if you have duped something and it doesn't turn out well, maybe look for another blog review with different descriptions and it will help you get better dupe results.

This is a link to Temptalia's review, dupes, photos, and swatches. They are two different parts. Part 1: http://www.temptalia.com/faced-favorite-things-palette-review-photos-swatches-part-1
Part 2: http://www.temptalia.com/faced-favorite-things-palette-review-photos-swatches-part-2

I also had help from this blog: http://www.vampyvarnish.com/2013/10/faced-favorite-things-holiday-2013

I didn't find dupes for all the eyeshadows in the palette. Just the ones I wanted to find.

1. Whiskers on Kittens: Wet 'n Wild Newport Night, upper right color
2. Moon on Their Wings: Maybelline Enchanted Forest, upper right color
3. Chocolate Milk: Wet 'n Wild Nude Awakenings, 3rd color
4. Dark Chocolate: Maybelline Eye Studio Quad in Fall Temptation, 4th color
5. Cream Colored Ponies: Almay Trio for Hazels, cream shade
6. Evergreen: Wet 'n Wild Envy
7. Buche de Noel: Urban Decay Mariposa Palette in Wreckage
8. Blue Satin Sashes: Wet 'n Wild Pride, 3rd shade
9. Coquet: Elf Baked Eye Shadow in Pixie
10. Taffy: Wet 'n Wild Sweet as Candy, pink color
11. Woolen Mittens: The Balm Meet Matt(e) Nude in Matt Abdul
12. Soiree: Maybelline Eye Studio Mad for Mauve, 4th color
13. Tinsel: L'Oreal Hip Dynamic, left side
14. Snowflakes: Urban Decay Ammo Palette in Polyester Bride
15. Honey Honey: Urban Decay Ammo Palette in Chopper
16. Melt Into Spring Blush: The Balm Frat Boy
17. Raindrops on Roses Blush: Hard Candy Baked Blush in Living Doll
18. Chocolate Soleil Bronzer: NYC Bronzer in Sunny
19. Sun Bunny Bronzer: NYC Sun 'n Bronze in Fire Island Tan
20. Bee Sting Lip Product: Buxom Full-On Lip Cream in Creamsicle

These are the looks from the look book. If I find other looks I like I'll add them to this post later. I have a feeling people will be creating looks with this palette.

1. Weekday
a. Base: Whiskers on Kittens, I think the base is from the lashes to the eyebrow. Temptalia's dupe is Wet 'n Wild Newport Night, upper right color. The description is "pale peach with a hint of pink and gold sparkle." The dupe is a matte color though, but I think that is good for a base not to be sparkly.
b. Lid: Moon on Their Wings. Temptalia's dupe is MAC Retrospeck, and the dupe I have for that which unfortunately I'm not sure where I found this from is Maybelline Enchanted Forest, the upper right shade. When I first started keeping a list of dupes I didn't keep track of my sources. The description is "warm, golden beige with a frosted, metallic finish and gold micro-glitter."
c. Crease: Chocolate Milk. Temptalia's description is "medium brown with warm, orange undertones and a matte finish." My dupe is Wet 'n Wild Nude Awakenings, 3rd color.
d. Line: Dark Chocolate. I think this means to line the upper and lower lashes. Vampy Varnish's description is "dark brown matte." My dupe is Maybelline Eye Studio Quad in Fall Temptation, 4th color.
e. Mascara: Too Faced Better Than Sex. It comes with the palette. I just use the mascaras I have been using: Benefit They're Real! (top lashes) and Maybelline Lash Discovery Mini-Brush Waterproof in Very Black (bottom lashes).
f. Bronzer: Too Faced Chocolate Soleil. It comes with the palette. I guess it even smells like chocolate! Vampy Varnish describes it as a "light matte bronze." Somewhere I heard the dupe for this was NYC's Bronzer in Sunny. I put it on the hollows of my cheeks, temples, hairline, and under the jaw.
g. Blush: Too Faced Melt Into Spring. It comes with the palette. "Silver white winters that melt into Spring." I just remembered these lyrics when I was listening to the song again. Vampy Varnish describes this as a "bright peach matte." My dupe is The Balm Frat Boy. This is one of my favorite blushes.
h. Lip Injection Color: Bee Sting. It comes with the palette. I forgot what this had to do with the song. "When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling sad. I simply remember my favorite things, and then I don't feel so bad." Vampy Varnish describes this as a "pale pink/peach, shiny." My dupe is Buxom Full-On Lip Cream in Creamsicle.
My Thoughts: The eye look is really pretty and classic. The blush is a pretty peachy pink color. The lip gloss is like Bee Sting because it makes your lips plump up. The Creamsicle lip gloss smells like vanilla, and it doesn't sting, it gives a minty feeling on the lips. This look is really beautiful.

For the rest of my face I used:
Concealer: Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer in Radiant (under eyes)
Eye Shadow Primer: Milani Eyeshadow Primer
Face Primer: Pixi Flawless & Poreless Face Primer in Translucent
Foundation: Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Normal/Dry Skin in Ivory
Powder: Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in Translucent

2. Weekend
a. Base: Cream Colored Ponies. Temptalia's dupe is Bobbi Brown Bone. Somewhere I found out MAC Blanc Type is a dupe for Bone, and somewhere I found out Almay Trio for Hazels, cream shade is a dupe for Blanc Type. The description is, "pale, cool-toned ivory with a matte finish." My dupe is more of a satin finish, but it is close enough of a matte for me.
b. Lid: Evergreen. Temptalia's dupe is MAC Humid. Somewhere I heard a dupe for that is Wet 'n Wild Envy. The description is, "medium-dark forest green with cool undertones and a pearly finish."
c. Crease: Buche de Noel. The description is, "medium dark brown with a golden, frosted sheen." I found a good dupe for this is in Urban Decay's Mariposa Palette, Wreckage.
d. Line: Blue Satin Sashes. Temptalia's dupe is MAC Prussian. Somewhere I heard Wet 'n Wild Pride, 3rd color is a dupe for Prussian. The description is, "deep, dark blue-teal with a matte finish and subtle gold sparkle. My dupe has no golden sparkle, but it still looks good.
e. Mascara: Better Than Sex
f. Bronzer: Too Faced Sun Bunny. This comes in the palette. It has 2 shades. Vampy Varnish's description is "medium golden bronze metallic and a pale golden bronze with a slight sheen." I heard if you swirl all the colors together a good dupe is NYC Sun 'n Bronze in Fire Island Tan.
g. Blush: Melt Into Spring
h. Lip Injection Color: Bee Sting
My Thoughts: I wasn't sure about the blue on me, but it looks pretty next to the green. The Wreckage color is beautiful. I love my Urban Decay books. It makes me want to get more Urban Decay makeup, maybe for Christmas. I already said I love the blush and lip gloss. The eyes are green, brown, and blue, but it looks good. It sounds like a weird combination, but I like it.

For the rest of my face I used the same as the first look, plus:
Concealer (blemishes): Boots No.7 Stay Perfect Blemish Cover in Extra Fair

3. Pretty Playful
a. Base: Coquet, pale, light-medium pink with a golden, frosted finish and warm, yellow undertones. I used Elf Baked Eye Shadow in Pixie.
b. Lid: Taffy, light-medium, warm-toned pink with a slightly metallic sheen. I used Wet 'n Wild Sweet As Candy, pink color.
c. Crease: Woolen Mittens, medium taupe matte. I used The Balm Meet Matt(e) Nude in Matt Abdul.
d. Line: Soiree, burgundy matte with pink sparkles. I used Maybelline Eye Studio in Mad for Mauve, 4th color.
e. Mascara: Better Than Sex
f. Bronzer: Chocolate Soleil
g. Blush: Raindrops on Roses, candy-colored pink with fine golden sparkles. I used Hard Candy Baked Blush in Living Doll.
h. Lip Injection Color: Bee Sting
My Thoughts: Pixie is not very pigmented, but that is ok because I just wanted a wash on my entire eye space. If you want to have more pigment you can get it wet. I'm not sure about pink on the lid. I heard that it is a good color if you have hazel eyes. I think it does bring out the color in my eyes, but I also think it looks like my eyes are sore. It doesn't look so bad once the liner and mascara is on. I'm loving the Hard Candy blush. It took me awhile to get my hands on it because my Walmart was always sold out of it. It's the same lip gloss, and I love it. So the eye look is pink on the lid, taupe in the crease, and mauve as a liner. At first I didn't know if I liked it, but now that the look is complete I think it looks really pretty and feminine.

For the rest of my face I used the same as the first look, except:
Foundation: L'Oreal Visible Lift Foundation in Soft Ivory (My skin is getting drier, and I needed a more moisturizing foundation.)

Here are some more looks I found using this palette.

a. Face Primer
b. Foundation
c. Concealer
d. Maybelline Dream Lumi Concealer in Radiant, under eyes, nose, above nose on forehead, cupid's bow, chin
e. Powder
f. Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Diffused Light, under eyes, all the places where she highlighted: I used a cream product, Benefit's Watt's Up!
g. Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer, hollows of cheeks, a little bit higher onto cheeks, temples, hairline, sides of nose: NYC Sunny
h. Benefit Dallas Blush: Covergirl Cheekers Blush in Soft Sable
i. Lorac Spotlight, top of cheekbones, nose, cupid's bow: Hard Candy Tiki
j. Jordana Eye Shadow Pencil in Continuous Almond, lashes to brow: Milani Shadow Eyez in Almond Cream
k. Too Faced A Few of My Favorite Things Palette, Honey Honey and Snowflakes, eyelid: Snowflakes is a pale white gold with a frosted, metallic finish. Temptalia's dupe is Urban Decay's Polyester Bride. I have that in Urban Decay's Ammo Palette. Honey, Honey is a warm, golden copper with a frosted, metallic finish. Temptalia's dupe is Urban Decay's Chopper. That is also in Urban Decay's Ammo Palette.
l. Same Palette, Dark Chocolate, outer corner of eyelid and crease: Maybelline Eye Studio Quad in Fall Temptation, 4th color
m. Same Palette, Milk Chocolate, crease: Wet 'n Wild Nude Awakenings, 3rd color
n. Same Palette, Dark Chocolate, outer corner, outer crease, deepen it out more
o. Clean blending brush and blend out everything.
p. Dark brown eye liner, upper lash line, lower lash line, use a q-tip to blend it all out: L'Oreal Colour Riche Eyeliner in Black/Brown. It comes with a smudger on the end, so I used that instead of a q-tip.
q. Nude liner waterline: Rimmel Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal in Nude
r. Mascara
s. Too Faced Bee Sting: Buxom Full-on Lip Cream in Creamsicle
t. Nude Lip Liner: Boots No.7 Line and Define Lip Liner in Nude
u. MAC Lipstick in Blankety: Wet 'n Wild Perfect Pout Lip Color in Fergie Daily
v. MAC Lipstick in Myth: Elf Mineral Lipstick in Natural Nymph
My Thoughts: I'm writing this as I'm not done with the look yet, but I can already tell the face looks so glowy and pretty. I love the combo of Chopper and Polyester Bride on the lid. The step where you take the Dark Chocolate color and put it at an angle on your eyes was difficult for me because my eyes aren't like her's. I tried to do it with a pencil brush, but my eye shadow didn't come out even. It's ok because when I got the lighter brown I blended everything out. With the liner I did ok on the upper lash line, but the bottom lash line when I smudged it out the line got really thick, so I'm going back and removing it with eye makeup remover. With this look you may want to do the eyes before the face because I got a lot of fall out from the Urban Decay eye shadows. The eyes look really pretty. They are different shades of brown, copper, and the white just blends in to the copper to make it lighter. The lips are nude. The look is focused on the eyes and glowing skin. I like it.

For the rest of my face I used as mentioned above, except:
Mascara (top lashes): L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes Waterproof in Blackest Brown
Eyebrows: Wet 'n Wild Vanity, 2nd color (is a dupe for MAC's Wedge)

My Thoughts: The eyes look like a smokey green, brown, taupe, and gold eye. It reminds me of a Christmas tree. I like it. The cheeks and lips are the same.

For the rest of my face I used the same as above, except:
Eyebrows: Milani Brow Fix in 01 Light

I hope you like these looks and find the dupes helpful! You may not need to get the palette if you have the same color eyeshadows, blushes, and bronzers.

Too Faced The Return of Sexy Palette

September 2nd was my birthday and with money I received I purchased four makeup palettes. The first one I got from Sephora via mail and I'm so glad to say nothing got broken in the mail! The Too Faced The Return of Sexy Palette is a beautiful palette I had my eyes on. I always pay attention when Too Faced comes out with a palette. This is my first time owning one. I always try to dupe them. If you want to dupe it, I'll include descriptions of each eye shadow and what each face chart says. I took pictures of the different looks on my face, but the pictures didn't turn out well. You can barely see the makeup on me. It doesn't show how beautiful the makeup actually does look. I got the descriptions of each eye shadow from Vampy Varnish's blog: http://www.vampyvarnish.com/2012/08/faced-return-sexy-palette-swatches-photos-review. She has beautiful pictures too.

It comes with 15 eyeshadows, a Perfect Eyes Eyeliner in black, a Shadow Insurance Eye Shadow Primer, and three face chart cards. I also included the blush and lip gloss I paired with the looks which if you are interested my favorite blush Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso and Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Peony.

This is a description of each eye shadow and the eye chart that goes with it.
