Hey Pumps and Gloss-ers,
Please add Purely Cosmetics to my list of favorite brands.
Purely Cosmetics is a mineral cosmetics company based in California. The owner, Robyn, is a mentch (just for you, Robyn). 😉 She sent me a few samples of the new, limited edition Cream To Powder Shadows. I absolutely love them. The shadows are solid, yet soft. The shadow has staying power and highly blendable. Some have compared it to MAC’s Paint Pots, but I think the Cream To Powder Shadows are better than Paint Pots *gasp* and I love Paint Pot as a shadow base, but not as shadow. The shadows glide on the eyelid with no streaking and the color payoff is strong. I tell you, I am in love.
In the FOTD below, I used the Cream to Powder shadow as base and shadow.
I created this look for church, a very soft and sassy look. *Yes, you can be slightly sassy for church* lol

Hey girl, yesterday I was pleasantly surprised with a door bell ring. Who was it I asked to myself lol. It was Fed Ex and I didnt know the name on the box. Opened the box and I had all the latest collections from M.A.C. all the latest lines coming out this fall and for the holidays!
What a pleasant surprise! I always forget that they send me things every couple of months lol. Im loving the Emanuel Ungaro limited collection(sold only at Nordstroms), and the Cremesheen line& Mineralize(real shimmery).
Blue always looks great on brown eyes. It really makes them pop! You did a great job!
@kia I didnt know you became a Paint Pot fan. *Noticed on Twitter* I am glad you are apart of the PP fan club. I think the matte pots work better as shadows. Anyhoo, u will be pleased with the CTPs.
@seymone and @marisol. Thanks. Barry M is definitely worth the hassle of ordering and waiting for the shipment.
soft and sassy has a new description! this is quite colorful for church. hey! omg… you dared to compare to paint pots? hmmm i shall see for myself! go purely cosmetics!
Pretty! The eyeliner is hot!
Love the look
You are totally gorgeous!
