Please pardon the gaps...

The site is in mid-migration now (manual migration of over 7,000 entries, so there's a lot to be done.) The entry stubs are created for older content, but for the most part, the actual content isn't there quite yet. I am working on it. Unfortunately I have no ETA. But feel free to link to any page! When the content does get populated, the URL will stay the same.

EoTD: The Tarot - The Moon

The Moon (esoteric name “Ruler of Flux and Reflux”) is the nineteenth card in the Major Arcana. The card signifies the unknown, feminine energy, instinct, and intuition. Colors associated with this card are red-violet, silver-white, translucent pink-brown, and stone-grey brown.

Part of the One Year Eyecolor Challenge (new colors used: 4)

After creating this look, I pitched Pavlova. The Vincent Longo cream shadows always held more promise than they actually delivered; and they just don't apply evenly. Hence the whole "ditching" scenario. I'm much happier with the MAC paint pots, the MUFE flash colors, the Lady Burd cream shadows, even the Benefit cream shadows (which are arguably my least favorite ones, other than the Vincent Longo ones.)
