Ludanmei Coverstick - $1.00
Inspire Shimmer Brick - $2.00
Fate Of Flower - $3.00

Ingredients:

1 CUP of Water
1.5 TBSP of Baby Shampoo (I used Baby Wash/Shampoo combo)
1/8 TSP of Olive or Coconut Oil

Combine into a container and shake well before using.

Recreation Look: Supernova



I found a look very similar on a makeup blog and wanted to recreate it.  The blogger called hers Supernova as well because that was the name of the black shadow she used.

If you have a chance, check out the above blog.  She's very creative!


List Of Products:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
88 Ultra Shimmer Palette
Wet N Wild - I Love Matte
