Favorite Eyeshadow looks for every season!

So in my extended hiatus, I've certainly been experimenting with a variety of eyeshadow looks. I recently acquired the Urban Decay Book of Shadows IV palette, and the Ammo palette, which has given me a variety of colours to work with. I wanted to share some of my favorite eyeshadows for spring, summer, and fall, and once we get snow, I'll share some of my favorite winter eyeshadows!!

Spring 2015: I really enjoyed using Sin (the lower shadow on the right) on the lid, and a variety of other shades in the crease for a quick, polished look. Last Call (the burgundy) looked great in the crease, as did Smog (the golden brown shade). Maui Wowie is another gorgeous shade on the lid, though it does have a a decent amount of glitter.

Summer 2015: I didn't wear too much makeup during the summer, but when I did, I turned to bronzes and coral shades...they are perfect summer colours!

Fall 2015: Now that the leaves have changed colour and I'm wearing scarves again, I've turned to more taupes and deeper shades.Specifically, the lower half of the Book of Shadows plaette has some great neutral colors for fall. Bust is one of my favorite transition shades in the crease, and Missionary is great for an all-over shade. As well, I just love wearing purple...purple tops, sweaters, scarfs, and eyeshadow! Fall is the perfect time to break out the purple eyeshadow!

Well, those are some of my seasonal favorites! Let me know what favorite shades you have for every season!

Topbox!!

Hello, everyone! It's been a while, that's for sure. I wanted to update you all and let you know that I have jumped on the subscription box bandwagon and just signed up for TopBox! TopBox is a Canadian subscription service where you receive about 4 beauty products a month! It's $12 (plus tax), so it is one of the less expensive boxes out there. There is a wait list to get the box, but it varies from within a week to about a month, so not too long. If you all are interested, you can post your email and I can send you an invite so you can skip the waitlist!

Topbox charges you the month before they send you the box. Mine should be coming in a couple weeks, and I'm excited to share and review the new products with you!

Have any of you tried beauty subscription boxes? What do you think of them? Let me know in the comments below

Hitting Pan!!

What have I hit pan on, you might ask? Well, not a whole lot. Here's a look at my eyeshadows I've pan on:

Revlon Cream Shadows

Powder Shadows:

I've had most of these eyshadows for 2-3 years, so that tells you how long it takes me to hit pan! I hope to use up more of my collection in the years to come.
