Gold Persimmon

I love creating looks on face charts! I made a couple of eye looks on face charts that I will attempt to duplicate on my eyes. Enjoy!! And yes it's another orange looks.. I need to retire that color for a while :(
Now it's not going to look exactly the same because colors are more intense on white paper. I did change a couple things like the liner extended on the inner eye and the darkness of the mascara.

ChinaGlaze : Peachy keen

I don't really care for entries about nails but I thought I'd share this because I've received soooo many compliments on this nail color. I purchased it at Ulta and was actually looking for a specific color (one similar to Ravishing lipstick by MAC.) So basically a very milky peach/salmon. I love this color so much! It gives a nice opaque coverage with a cream finish. Nice and long lasting!
