If you’re going for a super-blended eyeshadow look that effortlessly shifts from your lid shade to your crease shade, utilize a crease color (a shift shade) with a satiny finish, instead of a full-on shiny, shimmery surface or a matte.

Mattes are prominent as crease shift colors since they don’t show as much light as shimmery shadows do, so you can utilize them to make your crease appear deeper set, as well as make whatever you’re using on your lid *POP* more.

But matte eyeshadows are likewise normally harder to blend than shimmers, which have glittery shimmer bits that assist to scoot the pigment around.

If you’re trying to blend a matte crease color into a shimmery lid color, it can take A great deal of additional swiping as well as bit circles to produce seamless shifts between them.

By utilizing an eyeshadow with a satin surface as well as (just the faintest hint of shine) as your crease shade instead, you can still utilize it to make your crease appear deeper, however it must likewise be much easier to blend than a straight-up matte.

My preferred sure-fire crease/transition shades are MAC Soba, which is a medium golden brown with a satin finish, as well as MAC Texture, a warm peachy brown. Both are in the long-term line as well as look like they might pass for mattes at first, however they aren’t totally flat.

Basically, they’re awesome.

Bomb-@ss zucchini bread

Behold! Magic zucchini bread!
You guys! reason the bare deal with (it ain’t nothing you haven’t seen before), however I was as well ecstatic about this food circumstance in my hands to pause to put on makeup.

My workout class had a fun potluck holiday brunch get-together this morning, so I brought a loaf of my (now I refer to is as “my” since I like it so much, LOL) zucchini chocolate chip bread, as well as it was a hit!

I always get anxious bringing food to potlucks since I don’t have a ton of confidence when it pertains to my cooking… I mean, I can comply with a recipe, however I’m always terrified that whatever I bring is going to be the one meal that nobody touches. (Am I the only person who does this?)

Anywho, the entire LOAF got EATEN!

Well, except for one slice…

So, apparently, it was bomb!

I really hoped it would be since my household likes it, however when you hear it from people who you don’t cook for regularly, often it’s a lot more convincing, you know?

Oh, as well as before I left, a number of of the women requested the recipe.
