New Coastal Scents Metal Mania 88 Palette

Metal Mania Palette 5

I just received this in the mail yesterday. This is the newest 88 palette from Coastal Scents. I love the colors. All of the eyeshadow colors seem to be shimmery so far. And like the rest of the 88 palettes, the pigments are very bright! Can't wait to try this out. :)

The shades are best described as being a nice combination of the 88 Warm Palette and the 88 Ultra Shimmer Palette. The 88 Metal Mania Palette seems to fit nicely between the two.

I've put them side by side for comparison.

That's all for now. If anyone else buys the new palette, let me know what you think about it. :)

Bright Spring with BFTE

Hello Everyone!

Long time, no post, eh? Well I am going to remedy that now. So, lets get on with the pics & products!

BFTECosmetics asked, on their fan page, to post pics of everyone's eyeshadow collection from BFTE. Well here is my collection :)

So, since I had all my shadows out, I wanted to do a very springish, bright, everything is blooming now, pretty, look. The following pics show what I came up with. Products will be listed after the pics.

Also, I would like to give a special thanks to my husband for helping me take these photos. Thanks Sweety :)
