Makeup Monday - Bad Habit Beauty Luna Palette

Welcome back! It's makeup Monday again and last week I used my Bad Habit Luna palette all week. Here's a photo of the product that used to be on the Bad Habit site:
If I remember correctly, Bad Habit was operated by ShopHush which is now closed. I tried looking on Bad Habit's website but they just have an image stating that they're off working on new things and they'll be back soon. I'm not sure if they're going to be putting out new product at some point, or if this palette will ever be available again but it was a dupe palette for the Anastasia Beverly Hills Norvina palette. I really liked the colors, but I didn't know if I'd use them enough to justify the price tag for the ABH palette so I was happy when this more affordable alternative popped up. for a $10 palette the quality is not bad. Here's what I came up with this week:
I feel like these always come out looking muddy, the eye makeup definitely looked better in person than it does in the photos. Hopefully I'll improve as we go so you don't have to look at eye makeup pictures that basically look the same for the rest of the year. I'm wearing the foundation I decluttered last Friday in the first picture, you can't tell because the photo is small but I swear it's a powdery mess.
I decluttered the foundation in picture two as well, it was the Too Faced Born This Way foundation in the color snow. Too Faced just doesn't seem to have a color that matches my skin tone, this one was the closest and it is way too light. I didn't like the formula either, it stuck to any dry patches of skin I might have had on my face and it generally looked cakey. One day I'll find a foundation that works for me, today is not that day.
The Magical Die of Makeup Picking has spoken and I'll be wearing ColourPop's Just My Luck palette next week. Because it's entirely green I originally bought this palette to create Slytherin inspired makeup looks for Awesome Con and the Renaissance Fair (both the Maryland and Pennsylvania fairs have wizarding weekends!) I also used it when I went as a female Robin Hood to the Pennsylvania Ren Fair last year. So it's come in handy for costume makeup but I don't typically use it on a regular basis. It'll be nice to try it out for daily use.

Ongoing Projects

And I'm back! This week I'm going to talk about how I plan to tackle my hobby spending. As I mentioned in my previous post I have a lot of unfinished projects and projects that I have supplies for that I would like to work on. I also have a lot of sewing and knitting patterns I've bought and never used that I'd like to get some use out of. I also have a MASSIVE stash of yarn and fabrics that I've been hoarding over the years. BEHOLD! My craft room closet in all it's, er, glory? Please not that that's not even all of it. I have yarn stashed all around the house as well as fabric that I've washed but haven't boarded and stored in the closet yet. In order to attempt to organize this madness I've created a couple of different means of tracking my projects. For my sewing I have made myself a spreadsheet with tabs for each pattern maker that I've purchased patterns from. I've made a row for each pattern with columns for a picture of the

Why Are Fabric Companies Trying Me Right Now?

Hi all! Here we are on financial update Wednesday. I know I missed declutter Friday and Makeup Monday but I've been recouperating from a minor procedure I had on Friday and didn't feel up to blogging. Nothing serious, and I'm fine, just needed some rest. Of course one of the things that I tend to do when I'm not feeling well is to spend way too much time looking at things on my phone I have no business looking at which led me to notice that a bunch of fabric companies have really cool fabric out right now that I'd love to buy but can't. While it's been tempting I managed to not get anything so I'm pretty proud of myself. Some of the preorders are going to be open for a while yet so I have to keep not buying them until the end of the month. I'm dodging fabrics with images ranging from The Witcher to Rainbow Brite here so it's not going to be easy. Helping me along the way is the fact that Awesome Con just announced that the cast from Back to the

Declutter and Crafting for a Cause

Image
Hello out there! This week I've decided to declutter something that isn't an article of clothing. I have lots more clothing items that I can get rid of but I think I'll save some of them for weeks when I can't think of something to declutter. I've decided to get rid of a powder foundation instead. Pictured: the driest powder foundation of them all I don't know why the description on the Ulta website says that this blends effortlessly for a flawless airbrushed finish but it made my face look dry as a desert. It also says that it has medium to full coverage but I couldn't get it to cover anything. If I tried to build it up it just started looking more and more dry. I really wanted to like this because I thought that it would be something easy I could just swipe on when I didn't feel like doing anything else but that isn't happening. I've tried this over primer, on my bare face, over moisturizer, with a hydrating setting spray, you name it a
