Exquisite With Eczema
A blog of all my loves: beauty, books and other amazing things
This is Milani’s Shadow Eyez 12 Hr pencil in Brown Deluxe. It is an amazing product because it lasts all day with no fading and creasing. The pigment is wonderful, too.
the Balm’s BalmsAway eye makeup remover is wonderful. I have sensitive eyes, so most makeup removers make my eyes sting or turns my lids red. I also am prone to eczema flare ups on my lids, and this did not trigger anything. Not this. I have had no issues with this. In fact, it actually makes my lids soft. I was unsure about using a balm, but I love it now. It is $20 for 2.2 oz, but you might be able to find it at TJ Maxx or Marshalls. I bought a set for $8 and a full size tin of this product was included. It contains a blend of vitamins A, C and E so it also nourishes your eyes. One tin will last you a very long time because a little bit goes along way. I have been using my tin daily for a month and it still has a ton of product left (pretty much the whole tin).

My collection of eyeshadows from The Body Shop. These are my favorite eyeshadows. They are smooth, pigmented and long lasting. The Carbon Brown Eye Definer and Metallic Eyeliner in Brilliant Blue are also amazing. I have not used another liner since I bought these two. And I don’t like using another brand of eyeshadow. If you have never tried any of the cosmetics from The Body Shop, you should =)
EOTD using the Lily Cole Collection from The Body Shop
I have recently become a huge fan of The Body Shop, so I was very excited when my local store finally got the Lily Cole Collection in stock. For this look, I used the Lily Cole Shimmer Cubes (pictured above), the Lily Cole Liquid Liner in Ink Up Violet and The Body Shop Big&Curvy Mascara. The result is a soft, lovely pink and purple look.
I started with the lightest shade as my all over base and applied the lavender shade on my lid. I added the darker pink to the outer corner. I applied the plum shade on my lower and upper lashes. I added Ink Up Violet to the upper lash line, just over the plum shade.
This is one of my toned down FOTD ideas using the new collection by Sephora+Pantone Universe. It is a nice change from pinks, purples and neutrals. It really warms up the complexion and is perfect if you like a pop of color. Do not let the brightness fool you; it can easily be toned down and the lipstick is sheer, but very buildable. I used the Sephora+Pantone Universe Collectors Edition Set. Specifically the blush duo(Desert Flower), the orange liner, lipgloss and eyeshadow quad(Scallop Shell and Carnelian).
