I will admit, I was originally scared of the Evil Eye Shadow Quad from MAC. Part of the MAC Me Over collection, the shades in this palette seemed way too dark for ordinary Mommy day-wear. I simply couldn’t imagine how an eyeshadow palette this dark would translate. The good news for we soccer mom types is the palette mixes two higher-pigment shades (Moody and Palace Pedigreed) with two lower-pigment shades (Spellcaster and Evil Eye) that have more of a soft, watercolor appearance. As a result, MAC’s Evil Eye Shadow x4 CAN actually work during the day providing you make use of the sheerer shades for some balance. [Read more…] about MAC Evil Eye Shadow x4

Lavanila’s Latest: Vanilla Blackberry
Near my house, there’s an adorable farm that also happens to have an amusement park. My family is a fixture at this farm–it’s way too fun during the summer months! They also happen to make the most fabulous baked goods, using their own fresh produce and other locally grown produce as ingredients. Since discovering their Marion Berry pie, I’ve stopped baking for Thanksgiving dessert. Their pie is 100x better than anything I’d make! [Read more…] about Lavanila’s Latest: Vanilla Blackberry
