SHOWFACE Mascara Block in Black

I have had a few emails asking what my 'Showface' products are. SHOWFACE is a professional makeup school/shop.  Basically I have a friend who gets products from Showface really really cheap. Like 1/4 of the price.  So she recommended me the 'school' pacckage which is apparently what they offer to makeup schools (such as Tafe). 

So below is my collection. Please feel free to ask any further questions.

A friend of mine had a christmas party on the weekend. We were meant to get 'doll'd up'.

Here is what I wore make-up wise:

IF you can't 

already notice this was at the end of the night when I took my falsies off.

Lips. (Sorry they are messy in this pic)

What I Used:

UDPP

MAC Paint in Stilife

MAC e/s in Shroom (all over eye + highlight)

MAC e/s in Da Bling (all over eyelid - not going over brow bone)

MAC pigment in Pink Vivid (on crease/ brow bone)

MAC e/s in Texture (brow bone)

SHISEIDO Fine Eyeliner Pen

MANICARE False Lashes

LIPS

LA FEMME Lipliner in Tawny

NATIO Lipstick in Rush ♥ (this is the best 'red' I have ever seen)

MAC l/g in Venetian

Desperate to think of something that represents me I came up with a twist to what the others were doing by choosing to show my star sign (scorpio) as it represents me and my personality. 

Take a look:

AND NOW FOR MY "I just got stung" face:

I attempted a 'lips' look last night.

What I Used:

LA FEMME Lip Liner in Sierra

LA FEMME First Lipstick from Paris Berlin PB/Pal20 Lip Palette

CLINIQUE l/s in ____________ (will find this out soon)

MAC l/g in Hot House

In a collision of boredom and inspiration I painted my nails in a Black AND White theme. I don't win anything for neatness but hey its something different to plain white or plain black that every man (or woman) and his (or her) dog has on! 

I impulsively purchased Newly Minted from the Matte2 MAC collection. I used it once and didnt like the outcome. It has been untouched ever since. So I decided to pull it out again and give it another go.

This is without Liner or mascara

What I Used:

UDPP

MAC Shadestick in Beige-Ing (all over eye)

MAC e/s in Newly Minted (outer corner of eye)

MAC e/s in Firespot (inner corner of eye)

MAC e/s in Carbon on outer edge of eye towards eyebrow)

MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack (top and bottom lashline lightly)

L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara in Black

So you want to de-pot your eyeshadow and/or blush? BUT! You don't know how? Well never fear as I am here! :)

Below is a detailed tutorial on how to de-pot using HEAT.

WARNING: Cream does MELT. Do not try and de-pot your CREMEBLUSHES with heat! Why? Here is Why

Have Fun!

While in a state of euphoria and accomplishment while depotting all my eyeshadows I did something really really stupid.

So there I was depotting my very last blush. I had placed it on the straightener to loosen the glue and after a couple of minutes I went to transfer it over to my placemat to depot it. As I did the CREAM BLUSH that was now melted due to the fact that HEAT MELTS CREAM spilled like a colourful peach painting from Jackson Pollock all over my mat. (luckily it didn't spill THAT much...it could have been worse)

Needless to say I questioned my intelligence for a moment while I cried at the ugly remains of my blush. 

This is what it looked like:

After some helpful advice from the Specktra's I ended up throwing it out as I didn't want to be putting it on my face :(

FOR FUTURE DE-POTTERS: mandilovesmakeu from specktra suggested Koren's tutorial for depotting WITHOUT heat! 

My boyfriends Soccer final is on this weekend (late! but still) and since I was bored stiff last night I decided to do a test on the colours I will use.

Sorry can't remember what I used.
