Sugarpill Cosmetics

I just love theme parties, especially when someone has the guts to do a theme wedding. One of my friends got married this weekend and made it a Moulin Rouge themed wedding. I couldn't be happier, because that meant I could go all out with make up.

Here's a picture of my boyfriend and I, I'll talk about the make up afterwards :)

I recently celebrated my birthday and was spoiled rotten with all kinds of new make up. But the products that came in so handy for this wedding, were the very bold eyeshadow colors by Sugarpill. I absolutely love their pigment called Asylum, the red shimmery color on my eyes.

<---- That's Asylum






I also have two of their pallettes and I used the purple color called Poison Plum to give a little more depth to my eyes, so I applied a little of that color on the outer V arrea and in the crease.

I used some of the white eyeshadow named Tako as a highlight underneath my eyebrows and a golden creamy eyeshadow from the Dutch department store Hema in the inner corners of my eyes, topped it of with a black cateye eyeliner (Bobbi Brown's gel liner in Ink Black) and voila the eyes were done.

For me this look was all about experimenting with the Sugarpill eyeshadows for the first time. These colors are crazy pigmented, the pressed eyeshadows as well as the pigment I used. They actually look the same on your eyes as they do in the pan. I used the Urban Decay Primer Potion underneath and they didn't crease at all.

I've tried all the colors from the Sugarpill pallette called Sweetheart, containing the colors Afterparty (the babyblue color), the pink color Dollipop, the light green color named Midori and the white color Tako.

These colors I tried on top of a base of NYX jumbo pencil in Milk. They looked great at first, but started to crease within 3 hours. So I suggest using these lovely eyeshadow with a good primer that actually enhances the colors and doesn't crease. For me that's the Urban Decay Primer Potion.

So after trying all these Sugarpill eyeshadows and the pigment, I have to say this brand is a true blessing for all the ladies who love to wear intense colors. These eyeshadows are not for the faint of heart.
A big plus is the great packaging they come in. The logo is pressed on each product and looks like a tattoo artist produced it...what can I say I am a sucker for good looking packaging :P

The individual pressed eyeshadows cost $12 each, the pallettes cost $34 and the pigments cost $12 each as well. I think they are well worth the money. Especially considering the little amount of product necessary to really make these colors pop.
