When real things happen to imaginary people

Yeah, huge amounts of rain here in Seattle, which led to a flooded basement. Things are under control, but it was Not Fun to wake up to that, let me tell you.

But this post isn't about that. This post is about the AMAZING eye shadow idea I just found on Tumblr:



::flails and squeaks delightedly::

Look at that! I have GOT to try and duplicate that look. Because, let's face it, I do have the colors needed to recreate it. (Matte hot pink and matte black shadows? Oh yes. I have them.)

Is there a quick way I could figure out if a particular blush is safe to use on my eyes?

(What? Stop looking at me like that.)

I realized last night, after rummaging around in the makeup boxes, that I have a very good pink shade via a MAC blush I own ("Dollymix", if you're curious). I just don't know if it's one of the colors that is safe to use as eye shadow. Oh, and I don't have the ingredient list anymore, but that could probably be found online.
