Makeup Geek eye shadows and pigment review + Drugstore makeup LOOK

Hey dolls, so I ordered some makeup geek shadows online on makeup geek website and I did a swatch of the pigment called Afterglow which is on the right side of the page. It is so pigmented and has a beautiful sheen. It has a light pinky gold color to it  that also looks light yellow too, its very hard to explain but once you see it in person its so pretty. and its gorgeous for a highlight too on top of your cheeks. I am using it for a highlight on the picture, it looks so pretty in person. Sorry I am using a phone camera so you cant really see it in the picture but that's why I have a picture close up on the page so you can actually notice that glow and sheen.

On my eyes I am using make up geek: Frappe and chickadee. Frappe is a light brown color similar to MAC's soft brown. And Chicakadee is a yellow shade. They both have a matte finish to them. I really love the colors on my skin tone but I know they will look gorgeous on any skin tone because they have amazing color payoff and they are noticeable.I also lined by eyes by using Lancome Waterproof black nior eye pencil (i purchased it from Abu Dhabi) I think you can find it at Macys. Lancome has amazing eye liners and eye pencils. Very black. I did not find any eye pencil THAT black!

On my face I used Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream in Medium. I put MAC loose powder on top to set it, in a medium shade (I think it was nc35 shade).
I also added a bronzer by Rimmel London (you can get it at Wal-Mart)
I did not contour my face but I did highlight it using the makeup Geek Afterglow pigment.

For lips I used: Stormy Sahara by Maybelline (their nude lips line). It is my favorite nude pink lipstick for this year, I am in love with it! You can get it at Wal-mart, Target or any drug store!
I filled in my brows by using loreal brown eye shadow that I had (i need to buy a new brow powder!) Any you have in mind that wont make the brow hair fall out?

Thanks for Reading, I hope this gave you an idea of a natural makeup look! 
 This is my natural makeup look, basically I do this when out and about.

Are your eyes itchy and red? MUST READ!

Hey guys, so I always suffer from eye allergies and it is seriously a pain! My eye allergies are so bad that my eyes become swollen and the red blood vessels turn blood shot. I cannot control it and I cannot feel better at all! I want to wear makeup and stuff but even hypo-allergic eyeliners cause my eye to turn red and itchy.


But now, I has prescribed eye drops and I sometimes use the Visine allergy eye drops that calm my eyes and relieve the pain.

I just want to give some advice to you guys if you are dealing with this eye allergies and how to prevent it or how to notice the symptoms. What you can do to make yourself feel better.


  • First you must understand eye allergies, and how it can happen to you. When you have allergies your body reacts to things that are not harmful such as dust, dander, animal hair, feathers and pollen. When your immune system encounters with these reactants your body releases histamine, and that causes swelling and inflammation.
WHAT ARE YOU ALLERGIC TO?


  1. you can be allergic to dust, pet dander,
  2. pollen and grass
  3. Makeup or perfumes/chemicals
  4. allergy to contact lenses


  • Symptoms to watch for:
  1. Red eyes
  2. Itchiness
  3. swelling
  4. Burning/pain
  5. sensitivity to light
  • Treatment (Antihistamine Pills)
  1. For quick relief buy the counter eye drops that say: Allergy relief. 
  2. OR buy Claritin (loratadine), or Allergra (non drowsy) which contains a ingredient (fexofenadine) that can relieve your eyes from the itchiness and burning sensations. 
  3. If you want a drowsy solution that is available over the counter, there is Benedryl and Zertec (they contain diphenhydramine or cetirizine). 
  • Prescribed Eye Drops:


If your eye allergies do not stop and become worse, then you must consult an optometrist and tell him or her your eye condition. They'll prescribe you antihistamine eye drops. 
IF you just want temporary relief you can get over the counter eye drops such as: Visine allergy relief, Red Eyes. But remember the relief is only temporary, and your eye allergies won't vanish if you just put 2 drops in. So, if you keep using it daily your eyes will be addicted to the sensation and the temporary relief and after a while they will start itching again. So you need to take some type of medication to stop it. 

  • Home Remedy+ extra advice
The best way to stop the itch is put a cold ice cube on your eye lids. 
Wash your eyes, and stop poking and touching your eyes, just leave them alone. 
It will stop the itchiness plus your swelling. Never use any eye make up until the redness and itch is gone. The chemicals in the makeup trigger your eyes and therefore, they will itch again. 

I hope this helped you guys! 
If you are dealing with the pain I hope you feel better! :)

Benefits of Castor Oil

What is Castor Oil: 
Castor oil is derived from the seed or bean of the castor plant. It's most commonly used as a laxative, but it has many other reported functions. Castor oil may help eliminate warts, boils, menstrual congestion disorders, ringworm, and fungal and bacterial infections, according to The Analyst website. It may also improve the condition of your hair and aid in hair growth, although little scientific evidence exists to support these claims.

Properties of Castor Oil: 

Castor oil contains vitamin E, minerals, proteins, antibacterial and anti-fungicidal properties. The Castor Oil website attributes its healing benefits to its unusual chemical composition, which consists of a triglyceride of fatty acids with ricinoleic acid of up to 90 percent. In addition to healing benefits, castor oil also contains anti-inflammatory properties, all of which are related to healthy hair growth.
I use castor oil on my eyelashes and eyebrows. It is very beneficial for the lashes and brows because it moisturizes them and stimulates the cells so the hair can grow long and full. You can buy it online at Amazon.com or buy it from a local indian grocery store or arabic grocery store! 
I hope this helped!
