I'm pretty sure I've mentioned the fact that I am a product junkie.
I love nothing more than trying new things, but this is not a cheap hobby.
The good shit will cost you, some items you can cheap out on, like mascara and lipstick.
Eyeshadow is not one of those, you pay for pigment.
'most' of my eyeshadows.
I know, it's crazy.
I randomly came across the blog MaskCara, love BTW, and she gave a recipe for making your own eye shadow primer.
Which costs 20 bucks if you buy it, totally worth a shot.
Cornstarch, chapstick, foundation.
I used the blow dryer to melt the chapstick, then I added the cornstarch and foundation.
In hindsight I would have added the cornstarch last and a little at a time to get the right consistency.
Totally works.

The way I see it I just saved my husband 20 bucks, see I don't need a job :)
Plus, I busted out my first sweater of the season.
82 degrees is fall weather, right?
Happy Hump Day!

Whoa! Look at you being quite the makeup guru. :)
And I hope you saved your husband $20 because that box of makeup looks expensive! Haha
I love that sweater!
I'm going to have to try that! Mine always fades away a few hours into the day. And look at you, Miss Skinny Minnie!
Love the 5pm picture of you... I've tried different DIYs from Pinterest and have been disappointed, glad this one wasn't a letdown!
You look precious!
Love it... I am going to try it out. Loving the sweater. 82 degrees is most certainly fall weather - at least by my book:)
I probably have just as many eye shadows! It's an addiction, lol. Sure 82 degrees is fall weather! I would wear fall clothes everyday if I could!
I am totally going to have to make that primer! That is awesome!!!!! You are my hero :) Love the sweater, you look fab! Yay Fall!
thats pretty awesome!
I want that sweater! It is so cute!
I am loving the cooler weather. Here in Minnesota, we're getting highs in the upper 60s/lower 70s. Yay! :)
What a genius idea!!! Thanks for sharing! And yes, 82 degrees is fall weather. It's offically fall under 85 in my neck of the woods! You rock! Have a great day!
You are too cute! Love the sweater and I am totally trying this! Go buy yourself something nice for 20$! ;-) HA!
Wow - that's a lot of eyeshadow. Lol - good job saving the $20 :)
It's funny b/c I am a product junkie too ... but I do not skimp out on my mascara. I think that mascara and a (good) eyeliner are 2 of my must-haves, if nothing else!! :)
Oh my gosh Ic an't wait to try this!! Thanks for sharing:) P.S. I can't wait to start wearing sweaters:)
You look gorgeous!
I am for sure going to be trying this out. I feel like I had never even put makeup on by the end of the day.
Loving your decorated deer head. I have a pair of mounted horns hanging in my bedroom...the best part is that I am the one that shot the deer! I used to hunt alot with the family but now I stay home on the hunts and we make crafts while the guys are hunting! If you love what you hang on your walls then that is all that matters!
Glad to here that everything went so well with your surgery.
I can TOTALLY vouch for the primer cost!! I dont use it (not a big make up wearer) But ASHLEY is and I buy it for her all the time!! Totally forwarding this on!
Well aren't you the cutest thing ever - seriously! Sooo pretty!! And I'm a prodcut junkie, too!
Now you HAVE TO COME TO Blissdom so I can meet you and you can give me some tips!!
Gosh girlie you just look so super cute!! Love the trick... I would say you saved him at least 20 bucks... I think my benefit is at LEAST that much if not more... Next time I'm in the market for some I'm gonna come back to this post :)
Wow, who knew you could make your own primer?! Definitely looks like it worked...your eye makeup looked amazing all day! I'm a new follower :)

All that eyeshadow you own is insanity! And I should try this recipe. I usually only like to use the ones that are creamy, so this I may really like :-)
You look fabulous by the way!
