Glittery Fail + Hot Pinkk Lips

 I tried out that NYX glitter cream palette , but I had already applied some e/s & didn't like that so I used it under Pixie Epoxy. I guess it wasn't really a fail I just couldn't get it to blend in the outer corner. I will try it next time on its own, but when I was picking it up with my brush it felt like chunky glitter that was not creamy at all.
Lips are NYX soft matte lip cream in Addis Ababa (not as bright in these pix as in real life!!!) It doesn't look so matte coz I left too much lip balm on my lips before I applied it, but it didn't take long for it to go matte.

Silly Face :P




So I basically used the 2nd lightest colour & then the gold in front of that & the darkest purple in the outer corner ,which was the one that was hard to blend. I think that could have been from the Epoxy though.
The purple e/s I used first was the one from the Stila Palette I received from Amalia, I used the lightest colour on the lid but that looked not so good so I wanted to amp it up.

Anyhoo not much of an exciting post but thanks for looking! <33
