My 1st YBF products
The picture above shows an eyeliner, blush, finishing powder, and a primer.
So by now you should be aware that my mom loves QVC and HSN. She bought these items for me to try out. I love my mommy!!!

Cute name for a cosmetics line. I can't say that I've ever heard of them before. I guess it's pretty new. We shall see. :-)

Orange Smokey Eye with Coastal Scents Smokey Palette Pt.2
I'm determined to make this orange smokey eye work. I tried it again but I used M.A.C. Fascinating Eye Kohl pencil instead of M.A.C. Paint Pot. Honestly, I forgot that I had it. I very seldom use it. I was watching YouTube videos and almost everyone was talking about NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk. I figured, Fascinating can't be much different, both are white eye pencils right???
I definitely got a better pay off with using a white base instead of a golden coral base. All of the colors stand out more and I didn't have to use as much. I'll remember this from now on. Unfortunately, I still didn't get the orange I was hoping for, but it's prettier than the first attempt. I feel as though this orange looks more like a dark gold.
I still plan to get NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk one day. I just don't feel like I NEED it right now. I also have M.A.C. Chroma line in white. I'm sure this would work even better because it's creamier than the pencil. I forgot about having that too.
I'm quite pleased with this Coastal Scents Smokey Palette. Especially since I purchased it during a 25% off sale last month. #winning
