So...I wet set my hair.... And this is what it looked like fresh out of the rollers with a slight comb through... And while I love wearing it big like this....the roots where just too tight for my liking...so I had to straighten them ( well my mom actually... ) Before & After ( click to enlarge ) So then....With my hair all flowy and whatnot...I had to/ wanted to play in my makeup.... One eye is based with Mehron AQ and the other with Styli-Style Shadow Base.... Can you guess with is which? YEA! they look the same....( I am painstakingly aware that the colors are out of season...and I'm still trying to decide whether or not that's something I care about.... ) then i glossed them up with some makeup remover... yeah..I'm fun....lol... Eyes Styli-Style Shadow Base (Right Eye) Mehron AQ Pastel Palette-Pink (Left Eye) Ben Nye Azalea (Lid) NYX Africa, Hot Orange (Crease and Above) Lancome Contrast [?] (Crease) Ben Nye Sun Yellow(Inner Corn...

So, I've had my Styli-Style L3 Shadow Base for like 3 months now... And I've come to the conclusion that I love it.... Product: 4 out of 5 Packaging: 4 out of 5 Quality: 4 out of 5 Overall: 4 out of 5 Price: $8.50 @ CherryCulture.com Would I buy again? Yes What does Styli-Style say about their base? Imparts a luminous glow and sheen to eyes with an opalescent shimmer. Ensure long-wear glamorous colour. Pros: Very good base, a little sticky and totally clings on to the eyeshadow. Reasonably Priced. No heavy shimmer in the product like other paints and creamy bases (shimmer is barely noticeable).Allows for easy blending of colors. Easily removed with soap and water. A little goes a long way. Cons: Very white in color. Sometimes hard to blend out(the product itself, not the shadows). Too much product will result in creasing of eyeshadow. It comes in a screw-top container (Yeah, I know it sounds silly but it would be so much better without the screw-top)...
