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!

EoTD: The Tarot - the Sun

The Sun is the twentieth card in the Major Arcana. The card signifies glory, gain, achievement, and confidence. Colors associated with this card are orange, gold-yellow, amber, and red-amber.

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

I haven't posted a full face look in a while - so it's high time. (These past few weeks I've just done quick moisturizer-foundation-eyeshadow, and that's it.)

Face

  • Everyday Minerals' Mint color corrector
  • Meow Cosmetics' Pampered Puss foundation in Frisky Chausie
  • Everyday Minerals' Memphis Rose blush, apples of cheeks
  • Bare Escentuals' Ruby Radiance, lower cheekbones brushed backward
  • Bare Escentuals' Secret Radiance, upper cheekbones brushed backward and upward

Eyes

  • MAC Cosmetics' Cash Flow, lash to just below orbital bone
  • TSS' Fall From Grace, outer lid
  • Everyday Minerals' Oasis, center of lid and blended back over Fall From Grace
  • Bare Escentuals Sunshine, inner lid and brow highlighter
  • TKB Trading's Peach Pearl, inner corner of lid
  • MAC Cosmetics' Rich Ground, upper lash line

Lips

  • Aromaleigh v1's Pinafore Nourishing Color Creme
  • Bare Escentuals' buxom Joy lip polish

Several first-use items in today's look: Memphis Rose blush, a limited-edition blush from Everyday Minerals; Pinafore color creme from Aromaleigh, and Secret Radiance from Bare Escentuals. I've had the last two for a little while (under two months for both, though) but haven't used them until now.

I also replenished my color corrector from Everyday Minerals (it just arrived two days ago). I had been using a sample of this and liked it, but then I mixed it with another soft green matte shadow from EDM...and in a few days, that started smelling quite bad, so I didn't dare use it. I had previously ordered the mint color corrector from another company, and used that while I waited to have more than one item to order from EDM...but it just didn't do as good a job as EDM's Mint color corrector. Now I'm back on track, though.
