LOTD ~ Granite

I've had this old The Body Shop eyeshadow for years and I've been really thinking about what the colour or shade is called since the bottom where it's written has pretty much worn out so I can hardly read any of it. So blonde me figured out today that I can peel the bottom sticker off and ta-daa - it has the shade name and number inside it too with list of ingredients. So yeah, go me, this took me years to figure out.

And just for your information the eyeshadow is The Body Shop Colourings in shade Granite. I used it for my LOTD today.






I also want you to see my today's nails for one reason only - to warn you how bad the nail polish is:



5 coats and still can see my nail tips underneath. Also it's really streaky and I got bubbles even if I let each coat dry and used only really thin layers. I put Gosh's Rainbow on top of it to hide worst bubbles. And the nail polish is China Glaze Yellow Polka Dot Bikini. Neons are usually quite hard to work with and this is the worst this far I've come across. I'd really like the colour if only the polish itself was better.

But better news - I ordered some products from Evil Shades Cosmetics yesterday. 2 lipsticks, 1 blush and 1 eyeshadow. Can't wait to get them!

I also changed blog colours bit lighter since some people have had troubles reading text from black background. I might still change some things and please tell me if something looks stupid or colour suggestions :)

  1. What's the lipstick? It looks fab on you!

    And I do personally like this background color better, only now all red links are screaming at my eyes :'D

    I hope your Evil Shades order goes better than mine :)

  3. The lipstick is actually 2 lipglosses - sort of. Gosh's Jumbo Lipgloss Pencil in Cabana Orange and then some Primark orange lipgloss on top.

    I've never had any problems with my Evil Shades orders, they might take awhile but always gotten what I ordered in the end.

    Yeah, 5 coats is really a bad thing for any nail polish, luckily it dries fast but still would never like to do 5 coats.

    I will tone down the reds, yeah they're quite bright now :D

  4. Ah, I knew it.. Something I can't have; Primark. HAHA :D

    Ah.. My orders.. Well, you can read about them on my blog if you want to, but I'm glad yours have gone better than mine :)

  5. The Primark lipgloss didn't really bring that much to the lips so pretty much can get the same look with just Gosh's pencil :D

    Ready your blog for the orders and that's just really bad. My last order came in bit over a week which is fast from US so will have to see when I get my order this time and in what condition.

  7. Here's it on its own on my lips to show it really is quite similar, less glossy only :D http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pX5DTnmwXHI/TLizR1HtvXI/AAAAAAAACeA/kzVz0zmZm9c/s1600/goshhaul5.JPG

  8. Aika kiva silmämeikki! Nuo huulet todella sopii sulle! Ihanat! :)

    Mä kanssa vaihdoin oman blogini taustaväriä just siksi, että on raskasta lukea valkoista tekstiä mustalta taustalta... vaikka se musta tausta näyttääkin mageelta. ;D
