So a few days ago I went to Bipa with Tom and we saw a great eyeshadow color called Turquoise Forever from Maybelline. He said if I'd wear it he would buy it for me, and I said, okay, I'll try it, but I'm just wasn't so sure about wearing turquoise colored eyeshadow with blue eyes.
Normally I don't wear any eyeshadow, because I'm long-sighted and I mess up every time I try... It's even hard enough for me to put on eyeliner and/or mascara without poking my eyes out >,<. If it's messy I just call it smoky eyes XD. There are days when I'm leaving the house, arrive at work and when I look at the mirror I just see a desaster... So that's about it...
But this color really is gorgeous so I just had to try it:
So it's a gel cream eyeshadow and the color I bought is called Turquoise Forever. I think the 24hr show how it's very long-lasting. Even better! Every time I try to use eyeshadow it seems to vanish within a few hours to whereever...
When you open it, it looks like a small creme pot, really cute and the color looks even better. I just used my fingers to apply it on my eyes. The texture is really nice, very soft and smudgeable. So you can apply more of this eyeshadow to get a stronger effect or less to make it look a little softer. The color is great and sparkles very pretty. Here you can see the result on my eyes. Unfortunately I'm not very good at taking pictures very close to my own face, but this is the best result I got:
Looks really pretty I think. Makes my eye color look like turquoise, too in this picture. I applied a second layer later to make it even shinier, but I really stayed on my eyes until the evening. I even got compliments... And I thought noone will really notice this anyway... Surprise! Too make this even cooler, I also used a matching nailpolish:
It's my favorite nailpolish color at the moment. Beach Bum Blue (96) from Essie. What a perfect color! It's a wonderful metallic turquoise, even one layer looks really good already, here I used two layers for a longer lasting finish.
Okay, that's it for today. I'm thinking about buying another color, maybe the dark grey they had, to make an even better look with two colors... They had 6 different colors at Bipa, for € 7,99 each, I'll definitely checking them out the next time!
Okay, see you again next time! Bye!
