Faith Collum Cosmetics: Crystal Chameleon Review

Crystal Chameleon by Faith Collum Cosmetics

https://www.facebook.com/Faithcollummakeup/?pnref=lhc

Faith Collum is a Certified Professional Makeup Artist and Licensed cosmetologist. She is also a wife, mother and beauty vlogger. Somehow, between juggling all of these things she has accomplished what some of us girls could only dream of... having our own cosmetic brand.

Faith was nice enough to give me one of her palettes (my favorite of the 3 because I love bright colors) in exchange for a product review (I think I am the one that lucked out here guys, seriously)! So here goes...

This 15 color palette includes highly pigmented, soft, blendable, and super affordable compared to other more expensive brand name palettes. Some of the colors are matte and some shimmer. I like this mixture as I usually wear a form of shimmer everyday so the range is nice.

The bright colors are great for under eye liners if you like a little pop! This palette gives you a lot to play around with and creative freedom because of the range of colors.

Here is a view of all the colors of Crystal Chameleon along with a few close ups:

What I like best about Faith Collum Cosmetics Crystal Chameleon palette is the fact that it does not crease and it lasts! I work at an inside/outside bar and grill in Florida and it can get super hot during the day and humid at night. With all the running around I do I can get pretty sweaty but this shadow is dependable and I do not have to worry about my makeup staying in place when I wear it.

Here is an arm swatch I did to show off the pigmentation and beautiful brightness of the colors:

As you can see, Faith leaves out nothing, as you can go for a natural look, bright and vibrant or dark and sultry smoky eye. The range of colors also means that it is the perfect palette to travel with since everything you could possibly need is all in one place!

If you are interested in speaking to Faith regarding this or one of her other palettes she is super nice and would love to talk to you!

Trip to Sephora!

I made some time to shop at Sephora last weekend and was it worth it! It was my first time. I had been inside a Sephora before but I had never purchased anything. I am glad I went back. Check out what I got!

Naked Skin by Urban Decay. This color is called Naked Light. Ultra Definition Pressed Finishing Powder. Luminous Finish. It's very silky if used very lightly. I apply it with a powder brush after my usual foundation regimen. The box says it's invisible and flawless and I can say that it is! I really love this finishing powder! I think I am addicted! Not a bad deal for 34$.

Stila, In the Light Eye Shadow Palette. I have been looking for a brown palette for a while. I was going to buy the Naked 2 Palette by Urban Decay but the Sephora store was out at the time I was there. I found this palette and saw that the colors were very close, and/or that I liked these colors even more. This palette is perfect for the summer. Gold, Bronze and Brown eye shadows for matching bronze skin. I can't wait till I am tan enough to apply bronzer as well! The best thing about this palette is that it comes with a brown smudge stick eye liner. Which I need as well! 39$.

Intergalactic Moon Dust by Urban Decay. I love this stuff! It's a light shimmer that is easy to apply and perfect for when you don't feel like you want to use a lot of make up. If used on top of a deep purple shadow it really makes it pop with the sparkles. I have been using this on my crease, with silver on my lids and white on my brows. I will have to post a picture of it soon! This is a great shadow if you love shimmer! 20$.

Cuff (silver) and Woodstock (pink)24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil. 20$ each. These eye liners are so smooth and easy to apply. They also stay where you put them! Even after a 14 hour work night bar tending. I feel like the Cuff pairs perfect with the Intergalactic Moon Dust Shadow and the Woodstock is perfect for lower liner with a smokey eye look. Both will make your eyes pop!

I hope you enjoyed my new buys and reviews! Hopefully I will have more pictures to come with more great buys and make up applications!

Eye Make Up Pictures from the Last Year or so.

Google

I love doing my eye make up. No. I don't love it. I am obsessed. I love my eyes. I have been graced with big brown eyes. Huge eyes. They make the perfect canvas for eye shadow play. I have also been lucky enough to have an aunt that works for Lancome who purchases and gifts me with a lot of make up! Here are all the pictures that I have taken from about the last year of my eye make up. All the make up used in these pictures is Lancome.

That's all... Like I said, I love doing my eye makeup. As you can see I can get pretty creative and I am lucky to have a plethora of shadows and liners of a palette to work with.

I hope you enjoyed these pictures of my eye make up over the last year. I do all my eye make up with my fingers. No bushes are ever used! I hate brushes! Please share tips and tell me what you think!
