EOTD: MNY Mini Pink & Purple...

A few weeks ago I mentioned I visited Priceline, my first foray in months, and picked up three cute little mini Maybelline eye shadows for $1.50 each. I used the green one in this look, so now it's time to show off the pink and purple ones...


I think they are brilliant value, so if you see them in your local Priceline in a great big bin, dive in! Pardon the state of the purple pan below - I committed the ultimate bloggers sin of not photographing it before I dipped my moist brush into the pressed powder. Incidentally this is a totally matte shadow and doesn't like water at all - it's far more potent when applied dry...


I usually try out all my new shadows over the top of essence white kajal - it's sort of my benchmark test before I start experimenting with all the other gels and creams underneath. While this was reasonably successful, next time I'll use MNY Too Cool Tattoo to give them some glisten and gleam..


I love these colours together, but I'm itching to pair both the pink and purple with the green from the same set - honestly there's just not enough days in the week for all the combinations I want to create ha ha...



This is such a pretty soft and femine combo and partners beautifully with silvers, greys and blacks. Have you tried any of these baby pans yet?

Take care of you,

    1. I think these shadows are rather spesh themissus, and unbeatable value. Apparently some of the lighter colours aren't so hot, but I'm thrilled with the three I picked up :-)

  2. LUUUVVV this look Kats :D Purple and pink always go together so beautifully!
    And the way you have lined your bottom lash line really makes the colours pop out even more. I'm so jealous of your mini buys! I want some too and I want them now! LOL
    I hope next time you make it to Priceline you find another buy that's just as special :)
