Ife from the Magic Palette by Juvias Place. Then I applied Bye Bye Undereye in the middle of the eyelid, then I applied Kesi from the Magic Palette on top to set it to attempt a halo effect. Tried applying Faso on the whole lid, since it didn’t really want to stick to the middle of the lid. Didn’t really work out how I wanted, so then I applied Dive Bar by Urban Decay on the whole Eye for a better look. Lastly I applied Super Shock Shadow in Sunbeam (also from the My Little Pony x Colourpop collection, limited edition) by Colourpop.
Holy shit you guys this primer is a life changer! It’s soooo hydrating. I had a few samples of laying around, so I thought it couldn’t hurt to try it out. It looked so smooth with very little foundation needed on top of the primer.
Anyway, I bought a similar product from Nyx (called the Studio Perfect Primer) since according to one YouTube review, they were pretty much the same product, but for a $20 difference in price. The blogger noticed the half of their face that they used the Smashbox primer on, their nose was oily (which was something I noticed when I got home, and you can see in my end of the night picture). Granted the blogger said they don’t usually have an oily nose, I do, so this was something that I weighed for looking at a dupe. They said the side with the Nyx primer was more matte, so I’m going to test that out the next time I go to do a full face of makeup.
Lastly I wanted to show how the makeup held up post concert with setting spray. I had a lot more fall out than normal with the Super Shock Shadow this night, and I’m not sure why. I also had issues with blending the shadow, but was in a rush and had to just leave it as it was. Considering a drunk friend petted my forehead, I’m impressed how well the brows held up. I should have probably used the lipstick version of Unicorn Tears, but went with the gloss. Which means it didn’t really hold up, especially since I drank from a water bottle multiple times that night.
