Do you ever believe about exactly how you got your name, or do you understand the actual story?

Dolce & Gabbana’s Contrasts Eyeshadow quad has me believing about names…

I was named after the actress Karen Black, however my mother practically named me Stephanie, which I can’t even begin to imagine… Not that I don’t like the name. Ich tue. It’s just that when I look in the mirror, I don’t see a Stephanie, Steph or Steffie. Nö. Does not compute.

Funny, though, that last weekend I satisfied a gal at the Bliss health spa who stated that she didn’t believe I appeared like a Karen. She believed perhaps a Leah, Leilani or a Lorelei. Something with an L, as well as I can kinda see that. certainly much more than Stephanie.

Anywho, I believe whoever named Dolce & Gabbana’s Constrasts quad knocked it out of the park, because it truly is strikingly different from the other daily quads in my stock of staples.

If I could, I’d provide that gal/guy a banana split with additional scoops of ice cream, whipped cream as well as cherries, since they nailed it!

And then, if he/she wanted, I’d go running with them, so we might shed off the calories as well as talk much more about Constrasts.

The long-running Unsung Heroes series features a few of my preferred long-term collection products from a range of bodacious charm brands.

This quad is a overall workhorse, one I might quickly see myself using daily, as well as yet it’s unlike the typical brown/beige/taupe/gray neutral suspects we see a lot.

Starting with the colors, ohmigosh! inside the golden compact hides four potently pigmented powder shadows that you can quickly take from day to night — a golden pinkish peach (a preferred for dusting around my lids when I’m in a hurry since it brightens whatever up), a pinkish beige, a warm purple as well as a plummy dark chocolate.

Versatile as well as lovely on numerous different skin tones, as well as just hella pretty.

From the left: shimmery golden pink, shimmery pinkish beige, shimmery plum as well as shimmery plummy brown (looks like a MAC Teddy in eye shadow form)

I like the two lighter colors for daytime looks. I’ll pat either the peach or beige around my lids, line my lash lines with one of the darker shades, as well as then line my water lines with liner.

Just like that, I’m prepared for a day of fast-paced pet helping in 5 minutes or less, as well as I look put-together sufficient to satisfy my demanding feline diva’s strict gown code.

Cheeks: Dolce & Gabbana Peach Blush; Lips: Dolce & Gabbana gentle Monica Lipstick
To kick it up a notch, like for a celebration or a date with El Hub, all I have to do is layer the plum shade on my lids, as well as sweep the chocolate shade into my crease as well as outer third, completing with a plum or reddish brown liner (MAC Prunella or Teddy work great) along my lash as well as water lines.

The look’s stylish as well as smokey, as well as it draws interest to my eyes without overwhelming the rest of my makeup.

More things to like…

The shadows have an opalescent, shiny surface that isn’t excessively frosty as well as kindly prevents my fine lines

The powders are as soft as spun silk yarn

I don’t spot any type of after effects whatsoever

Easy to blend

If I had to “Sophie’s option it” as well as select just one thing from the Dolce & Gabbana line to wear for the rest of my makeup-loving days, this quad would completely be it.

You can discover Constrasts now at Dolce & Gabbana counters as well as online.

On the prowl for recipes…

I like to believe I’m quite available to trying new dishes, particularly when I go out to eat, however when I cook for myself, I keep falling back on the exact same handful of meals.

Does you do that too? exactly how do you come across fantastic new things to cook/eat?

I’m getting exhausted of making the exact same dishes over as well as over again… I’ve been trying a few new recipes this week from this meal plan on the Women’s health and wellness magazine website, 3 ideal Weeks of Abs diet plan Eating.

For lunch today I made a salad called The two Chicks, subbing tuna for the poultry as well as swapping out the flaxseed for chia seeds, since I already had an open bag.

It was mighty tasty as well as only took 5 minutes.
