Hey everyone!
So here is a look I did using ONLY MAC Coppering as an eyeshadow all over. I really love the colour and it's so unique, so I decided I would try and really make it stand out (instead of just blending it in with other colors like I usually do). This look was so simple/fast to do, and I felt like it just really made my eyes glow. I think that this is an eyeshadow that would look beautiful on other colored eyes (most especially blue eyes). I was worried about how it would look but I think it turned out to be pretty flattering! I saw a Youtube tutorial where Pixi2woo paired Coppering with Creme Cup lipstick so I thought I would try that at first. My sister said it looked really horrible and "too clashy," so I switched it up with just a nude lip. I kind of liked it with the soft pink lip though... What do you think? I'm not entirely sure, I don't really think the two lip colors look that different from each other... I like both... Anyways I hope you like it!

Hey everyone,
So today I was looking at random pictures of birds online, and was kind of inspired by the beak of a bird for a makeup look! It had yellow and bright orange in it and they looked so beautiful together. I decided to take the colours from the beak and do a matte look with them, and I added some shimmery purple underneath the eye for fun. I did go out with this look, I was kind of nervous because it was SO bright but I received some compliments which felt kind of nice ha ha. Anyways I hope you like it! Here is the inspiration photo:
