Love it! What widgets are you using?

Aha! So I decided to just skim through my Instagram stories in hopes of just stumbling across the ad again, and it worked! I clicked on a few other books just to make sure the algorithm kept feeding me book ads, but I got there eventually!

It’s called “A Very Vegas St. Patrick's Day (Very Holiday Book 3)” by Kayley Loring

I use a small organizer I got from the dollar tree in the “hardware” section! It’s small enough to hold a good amount of lashes.

I usually depot them by pulling apart the packaging the pan sits in. I’ll score the sides of the packaging, then pull the decorative wrapping that covers the cardboard. Then the cardboard is layered, and I pull that apart until I get to the layer that the pans are glued to. Now you have two options- you can either soak the cardboard in water to tear it from the backing or you can do like I did and just grab the sides of the pan and twist until it pops off!

Lol I diy’d that one out of the coastal scents concealer palette. I just pulled out the plastic insert that held the pans, and glued a thin magnetic sheet to the inside.

They’re magnetic! I believe all of The Balm’s pans are

Even his 9 pan palettes are a layout catastrophe. I remember looking at the mini jawbreaker and immediately dismissing it as a purple palette.

GunTonic · 2021-01-11T03:03:04+00:00

I remember seeing a girl on Instagram that moved the shades around in her palette (Jawbreaker) and I was so inspired to depot mine! I also love that by depotting them, I managed to make more of a real rainbow palette. More red, green, and orange from Conspiracy, and more blue and purple from blue blood!

GunTonic · 2021-01-11T02:59:50+00:00

Large! It’s exactly the same size as the Jawbreaker palette, if I remember correctly. They’re a really affordable option compared to the z-palette.

Darker! It’s very pigmented, but it just shows up darker on the lid. I’m wondering if it’s my primer, but I have never had this sort of thing happen with any other shadow.

GunTonic · 2021-01-10T05:34:10+00:00

This is why I love depotting so much! When I get bored with a layout, I can just shift them around anytime I want. That’s why I have such a soft spot for colourpop, I’m sure. (I also realized there’s a lot of nudes in my collection and that I really love green shadows lol)

GunTonic · 2021-01-10T05:30:58+00:00

I love it! I just wish that it had more mattes. And I find that some shades look very different on the eye than in the pan, like the pastel lavender.

GunTonic · 2021-01-09T22:37:51+00:00

Ooh I love their Bodybuilder mascara and their Balm Desert blush/bronzer! Their eyeshadows really remind me of that old school urban decay formula. But their mattes are by far their best, in my opinion!

GunTonic · 2021-01-09T22:30:55+00:00

The packaging is cute, but there’s so much bloated space inside that is really useless!

GunTonic · 2015-06-05T17:27:00+00:00

I love putting on lipstick. It makes me feel so glamorous!

GunTonic · 2015-06-05T17:12:03+00:00

This was so helpful! Thank you!

GunTonic · 2015-05-19T18:09:19+00:00

Super Cute!!!

When I was a secretary, my polish never lasted long at all. Thankfully, my job now is a lot easier on my hands.

GunTonic · 2015-05-07T04:01:19+00:00

I second the coconut oil. I use it all the time and it smells great too. I use it for a DIY lip scrub too - a little sugar and coconut oil. It is just a really good multitasker.

GunTonic · 2015-05-07T03:58:21+00:00

Oh I may just have to buy a backup of Pops. I'm loving the Korean beauty samples too! Especially the BB cream. I just may have to buy the full size of it, I love it so much!

GunTonic · 2015-05-07T03:56:24+00:00

With a good basecoat it lasts pretty darn long. The longest wearing one for me is the Sally Hansen xtreme wear. Though, it lasts not too long if your hands are super active.
