CD-Cover Palette.

December is a time for me to settle down from the past months of hectic schedules and deadlines. Of which, one aspect of me 'settling down' would be to rearrange stuff in my life, and recently, I've been rearranging my room. I would be utterly embarrassed to show you guys the current state of my room because I'm still arranging parts of it, and for tomorrow, on the list next is my vanity counter. I thought I'd be good this Christmas so I decided to start early, before I get a temp job and there goes my hours again.

Rattling aside, I was looking through my mini storage box that contains most of my make-up and all that beauty stuff, and I realised that I have a couple of eyeshadow duos - mainly from Silkygirl, and 2 single eyeshadows. They took up A LOT of space in that mini storage box that is about to burst open very very soon. So, I couldn't take it any further (drama mama me) and decided to depot them and place them in a makeshift palette from an old CD cover. It's a really simple DIY!

Yes, much neater and compact.

Anyway, just incase you're curious about the eyeshadows;

1st Column (Silkygirl):

1. Ying and Yang - white with slight shimmer (L), matte black (R)
2. Mocha Latte - shimmer medium brown (L), shimmer coffee brown - gorgeous by the way! (R)
3. Smokey Spark - shimmer cool pale blue-grey, shimmer cool dark blue grey - another beauty! (R)
4. Golden Emerald -  shimmer yellow gold (L), shimmer emerald - one more beauty!(R)
5. Purple Glitters - shimmer light pink (L), shimmer duo-chrome cool medium pink. (R)

2nd Column (L.A. Girls):

1. Unknown - it's this gunmetal grey with slight sheen that doesn't really have much of a color payoff. 
2. ES121 Snowflake - white shimmer.

3rd Column (Missha):

1. GA203 - sparkly version of LA Girl's 'unknown'
2. VL301 - violet with shimmer and slight sparkle.

Oh, how times have changed. Some of the colors in this makeshift palette were bought quite awhile back. I couldn't believe that I was such a hardcore shimmer/sparkle fan! I'm a full convert to matte eyeshadows right now - with the occasional indulgence in shimmers/sheens. Talk about ageing :(

I have quite a bit of Silkygirl products because they're wallet friendly and of a decent quality, so I will be reviewing them in the next few posts since there isn't much reviews on them! Stay tuned! :)
