Swatches of BFTE Greens

A friend of mine, and fellow BFTE lover, Jenn asked for a comparison swatch of two different colors. Since I had the two she asked about and a few other greens from BFTE, I decided to swatch them for everyone.

These are swatched over Urban Decay Primer Potion, on my Sweety's back. Good husbands, will let a makeup obsessed wife, do those kind of things. Ha ha :)


This is direct flash


This is with the flash bounced off the ceiling


I did a few at odd angles. Minerals are so vibrant & sparkly. One pic can't show how awesome they are, so I'm adding these.




A close up of each









Thanks for looking everyone!

EDIT/UPDATE : BFTE no longer carries Sage or Shamrock. The colors By Golly, Ying Yang, and Glimpse all seem to be very close dupes to me. If I order these colors in the future I will update this post again.

Super Brights BFTE Contest Look

This was a fun, I fell into super bright paint, I am trying to blind you look!
BFTECosmetics is having a contest. They posted a pic of two prom dresses for inspiration. This is the one the look is based on....

How awesome is that! Who could resist the bright, fun colors in that dress? Certainly not me. :)

Wow! It isn't every day I use that many colors! I had fun doing this look and I have received some nice compliments so far. :) I also was planning to visit Sephora on the day I wore this. I had so much fun talking to everyone! The customers and employees were great!

To Be Reviewed ...

While browsing around in Ulta, I came across the new Maybelline Gel Eyeliner...



I've read mixed reviews from various bloggers, so I went ahead a decided to try it for myself. I like to wear products several times before I make a judgment call.

After a trial run I'll update my thoughts.

Laters :)
