Stepping out Nigeria style/ makeup

Coastal Scents 42 Color Double Stack Shadow and Blush, Matte

I love bold colors!! i love Coastal scents 42 double stack eyeshadow pallete, this is my first pallete from coastal scents,gorgeous eyeshadow colors, it also came with a set of 10 blushes. I have watched so many videos, heard so much about their palettes but never bought or thought of buying one, I was searching a website for a bold, beautiful pallete that was not to expensive when i came across coastal scents and purchased it online. when my pallete arrived i fell in love with coastal scents and purchased 4 more palettes from them including the "42 double stack eyeshadow and blush,shimmer". This is a set of bold, beautiful colors in matte, highly pigmented and very good quality for the price, i could not believe it when i started trying different looks with these pallete. I love their color payoff and the fact that their products are so affordable that you don't have to break the bank, although there are some colors in this pallete that are chalky but not so bad, you will need to either apply a concealer on your eyelid or a very good primer like urban decay primer portion or other quality primer to provide a good lasting look. If you are just starting off as a makeup artist or you are a lover of makeups, I recommend this, if you are a pro makeup artist i also recommend this.

Wet and Wild baked eyeshadow

I created this look using the wet and wild baked eyeshadow (baked-off contest). a drugstore cosmetic, you can find in drugstores like walgreens, CVS. These baked eyeshadow, can either be used wet or dry but i will suggest using it wet because you will get the color payoff better that way. wet and wild cosmetic company is one of the very best drugstore cosmetic, i love all their eyeshadows and i really purchased a whole bunch of their cosmetics ranging from the coloricon, baked eyeshadows, lipliners , lipcolors etc. and they are worth every penny you spend on them, they are pigmented and their are some MAC dupes in them (MAC cosmetics). I will definitely recommend their products to anyone.
