LOTD: Fashion Fair palette

This is actually my mom's palette that I decided to take because she doesn't use it anymore. She probably doesn't know it's even gone.

I've never heard of the brand Fashion Fair, but I know that she bought it at the Navy Exchange. It looks like a cheap, tacky make up palette that you would get for Christmas and would never want to use just because you know drug store make up serves with better purpose. However, I googled up the brand and apparently they sell it at Macy's for quite a bit.

The colors on this palette weren't ones that were vibrant enough to my liking, or colors that I would use in general... but I just wanted to play with it for fun.

Btw, I plucked my eyebrows so that when I fill them in they're pencil thin as viewed on the photos below, just the way I like them.

LOTD + Review: Halloween look using a VS palette

I didn't have much time to get ready because I had gone to work on this day. I didn't really have an outfit either... so I had an hour to put on make up as well as cough up an outfit that portrayed a pirate. Initially, I had worn a red and white striped top and my sister goes, "What are you supposed to be? Wanda?" I think that's what she said... but I understood what she meant: the Waldo girl. But anyways...

This was the first palette I ever bought that wasn't from the drugstore. It's actually a limited edition palette from Victoria Secret, and I think I bought it about exactly a year ago. On the top of the over it says "Heidi Klam" and I have no clue who that is, but the palette's exterior caught my eye and I argued that it would be beneficial to the girl I was who lacked a decent eyeshadow palette.

I believe it costed $25 and it was worth it. My favorite colors are the shimmery champagne and matte black colors, of which are the only colors I used to achieve this look. Don't you just love what it's able to do? I know I do.
