Shiny Lids With Tarte Quick Stick | Thoughts of Sunshine and Spring

January 13th, 2023 by Karen 1 Comment

I think the more makeup feels like you’re just foolin’ around in art class, the more fun it is! I definitely get that vibe from the Tarte Quick Sticks ($25 each).

The artsy girl gang of eyeshadow and pencils comes in six wearable neutral combinations. On my lids is Rose Gold Luster/Brown, which has a shimmery warm golden pink eyeshadow stick on one end and a creamy brown pencil liner on the other.

I like to line my lash and water lines first, smudge-smudge-smudge with a finger, then do a few dashes of the shadow on top. A quick swish of my blending brush and my lids shine bright like a diamond. Totally recommended if you’re like me and currently into looks that don’t require a heavy lift.

I want to try the Matte Tan/Brown and the Bronze Luster/Black combos next. I bet any of the combos would layer well with the Tartelette In Bloom Palette, too.

Happy Friday to you, my friend. How’s it going today out in your neck of the woods? If the sun is out, please do me a favor and bow down and worship it, LOL! It came out yesterday for the first time in weeks, and it was a truly dazzling sight. It’s raining again today, though, so for now I’ll enjoy the sound of raindrops on my window while I dream of the spring days that are coming…

Can’t wait!

Speaking of spring, this new Guerlain perfume is giving me warm weather vibes! It’s a Mattise collaboration, which I think is pretty cool.

The colors make me feel like this scent could be sunshine in a bottle!

What do you think?

    I love how soft and glowy it is! No sun here, pretty typical for this time of year. I saw a Facebook comment saying that NASA was blocking the sun… No, you just live in Michigan, ma’am.
