Battle of the Bases
by Amalah
Amalah, Oh please oh please, help! I am FED UP with my eyeshadow. It creases and streaks and clumps — all by lunchtime! My eyelids look greasy and my lovely shading job goes all to hell. I admit I use fairly cheap stuff most of the time, but I am ready to change! (It’s either [...]
Smashedbox
by Amalah
