LOTD: apricot

When I see that coral colored eyeshadow in it's packaging, I think of apricots... lol. 

A few months ago, I got a sampler pack for mineral foundation from The All Natural Face. So the first color that I tried, which is the foundation I have on right now, is "brandied peaches." I would say it's a pretty good match, though I could go a litttleee bit darker, just a little. Unless (hopefully) I come a litttleee bit lighter, which could happen. After all, my NC44 is too dark for me as the weather has become colder. I definitely like the coverage of this mineral foundation. It's the first time I've actually tried such a thing. It does a good job in concealing my dark circles too.

Before I put the mineral foundation on, I primed my face with Monistat's chafing relief powder - gel. 

My nose is super dry and it's peeling. D: That always happens during this time of the year.

Today I received a package of some eye shadow primers that I wanted to try out from the all natural face. Included in my package were samples of three mineral eye shadows that I figured I would try out. Boy did I hate trying to get product with my brush from the bottom of the bag, it was such a mess. 

The primer seems great but the eye shadows I do not like. The blue seems to be more like silver, and the gold didn't appear. I couldn't blend the black all that great so I ended up using my own eye shadow from Sephora.
