OFFICIAL BLOG NAME CHANGE!

Hello Lovelies!

I just wanted to inform you that I have changed my blog name from Marine Wife Beauty Blog to Beauty Junky. I wanted a different name that sits well with everyone and doesn't target only Marine or Military Wives (Yes my husband and I are still very happily married =]). New year, new blog name and MORE posts to come very soon. My blogging has been off lately but I miss it and will resume very soon!!! I hope you all had a happy holiday season!! <3

WHAT'S IN MY Z - PALETTE...

Hi Lovelies! 

I had been wanting a Z-palette for quite awhile now so about a month ago I finally bought one and I have to say, I love it! I picked the 4 U Z-Palette ($17), which is bigger than the small palette but smaller than the large, honestly it should just be called a medium palette. I actually regret not getting the pro-palette instead, which is the biggest one, since this one is already filled up a bit and I have more eyeshadows and blushes I want to add. I will definitely be buying more in the near future, they are really handy! I don't like carrying multiple items in different compacts so this was really nice! I was lucky enough when I depotted my Urban Decay Naked2 palette that I didn't have to use my flat iron, although I did end up having to use it for my MAC eyeshadows. (Don't forget to save your compacts from MAC after you depot them so you can return them for a free lipstick!)

My Z-Palette

 Swatches:

From top to bottom:

Benefit CORALista Blush (Deluxe sized sample)

Urban Decay Eyeshadows from Naked2 in

Foxy

Half Baked

Snakebite 

Chopper

Cargo Eyeshadow in Ceylon

The two rectangle purples underneath are from a Covergirl Quad that I am pretty sure discontinued. It was the Covergirl Eye Enhancers Eyeshadow Quad in Blossoms 257. 

The swatches are eyeshadow is actually horrible now since I have had them for a long time but I keep them in my Z-Palette so that while I am out I can find dupes of them because I really like the colors! If you have any suggestions for dupes let me know =] 

These two pink eyeshadows are also from the Covergirl quad and I am looking for dupes of them too =]

 Cut off at the very top and not swatched is my Covergirl Fresh Complexion Pocket Powder Foundation in Ivory, I love to use this over my L'oreal True Match Liquid Foundation!

The top eyesahdow is MAC's Romp, which is now sadly discontinued, I love this shadow!

And the last eyeshadow is MAC's Soba!

Do you have a blog post about your Z-Palette? Post a link down below and I will check it out!

HOW TO FIX BROKEN MAKE-UP!

 

 

Hello Ladies!

 

Today I wanted to do a post on how to fix your broken make-up! Sadly my item that I had to fix is my MAC Archies Girl Pearlmatte Face Powder in Flatter Me. My 3 year old decided he wanted to play catch and the result ended in my holy grail blush being broken! Yes, I said it, this is my holy grail blush! I have only found two make up items that have been put into my HG category and this is what happens =(  (The other HG is Too Faced Perfect Eyes Eyeliner in Perfect Black).

 

What it used to look like (Stock photo from MAC)

 

What it looked like when my son was done with it...

 

What you will need to fix it:

Something to chop your blush into powder (Not pictured but I used a spoon)

Rubbing Alcohol

Paper Towel

 

Poor some of the alcohol into the compact with the powder, don't use too much or it will be too liquidy and won't set right.

 

Use a wet paper towel to press the blush (or eyeshadow) back into place.

And Voila! 

 

Swatch (sorry it is a horrible photo and I had horrible lighting)

It still works perfect and is my go to blush!
