Long time no see

Soooo I don't really want to know how long it has been since I have posted here. Things have been very busy with family things and makeup just was not a priority. Currently Moon Rabbit Cosmetics is closed. I do not have the time to devote to it as I feel it deserves.

Now that I got all that business out of the way, I want to start posting again so I will share a NOTD and a weekly favorites.

Firstly the most work I have done painting my nails in months:

And now for all the things I have been using and loving this week:

1- Chinovi eye shadow in Whisper
I was organizing all of my indie shadows and for some reason Whisper kept calling out to me. Good think I listened, IT'S GORGEOUS! SO SPARKLY! I love patting it over a foiling medium to give a very nice sparkly look when you want to be "toned down" because of your nice bright lipstick!

2- ELF Flawless Finish Foundation in Porcelain
My Make Up For Ever Foundation is practically empty (I don't know why I am trying to limp it along) and I just don't feel like using my Illamasqua one because I am pretty sure the slight tan I have developed has made me just a little too dark for my current shade.

3-Darling Girl blush in Pixie
Apparently no longer on the site, this is a gorgeous subdued everyday blush. Not super bright, or pink, just perfect to liven up my face when I don't want to look like I am "wearing blush."






Everyday is an adventure.

Chinovi Cosmetics Swatches

So I finally caved in and ordered from Chinovi. I was not sure what colors to pick up, so I trued to get a little of everything. I had been looking for some good highlight colors and I have been really loving dark colors for liners and I have been trying to be less afraid of a dark crease color so dark colors it is too!


Cake pops - is an iridescent purple with turquoise sparkles
Superstar - is an iridescent gold and copper mix
Whisper - is a soft nude beige with golden sparkles
Cloud - is iridescent blue with purple shifts and blue sparkles
Nieces - is a peachy pink with a golden sheen
Princess - is a barbie pink with golden sparkles
Hiccup - is a golden purple with golden shimmer
Marquee - is a blackened purple taupe with a pink sheen
Fairy - is a dark periwinkle with purple and aqua sparkles

I was very pleasantly surprise with these eyeshadows and I cannot wait to play with them. I love cake pops. These photos cannot do it justice. I tried, but I just cannot seem to capture how pretty it is. The closest is actually the lid of the clamshell. So pretty! At first I overlooked superstar, but looking at the photos, this is also an amazing color. With a greyish base and buttery yellow sparkles I am in love. Nieces is a really pretty coral color. I have been trying to find the perfect coral eyeshadow and this may be it. Hiccup and Marquee look quite similar, maybe I didn't need them both. Bubbles is a very nice golden coral. I also really love unicorn and secrets. They are two very pretty dark sparkly purples! You must have these two. Actually you need all of the purples, blues, blurples that I ordered. They are very pretty and unique.
