BLOSSOMING FACE OF THE DAY: KALEIDOSCOPE GLAM

Hey Blossoms,

I am in LOVE with color you all know this! Well today's BLOSSOMING FACE OF THE DAY is packed with it! An amazing duochrome eyeshadow! Duochrome eyeshadows reflect 2 colors and are so amazingly beautiful. I love duochrome eyeshadows. For more popular duochrome eyeshadows think of 2 of my favorites: MAC's Stars & Rockets E/s, MAC's Club E/s There are many duochrome pigments too! Many other cosmetic companies have their own so don't be afraid to experiment and check them out. In this look I used the duochrome E/s, from Wet & Wild's Limited Edition Holiday Palette in Night Elf , it can definitely be a dupe for MAC's Club E/s! Duochrome E/s remind me of a kaleidoscope. I loved kaleidoscopes as a child because as you looked at them the more it would start to look different. So much fun was had just peeking through its little opening and oohing and ahhing at the different shapes and colors! OHHHH the memories! LOL! Now let's turn this childhood past time into a great modern day KALEIDOSCOPE GLAM eye thats frisky, spunky, cool and down right FUN!
