Review + Swatches: LA Colors Jumbo Eye Pencils

Ok so I haul and haul stuff and never do a review or pretty good swatches of what I buy so I decided to do some swatches and reviews! The first few I have lined up are from LA Colors. So the first one I have is for the Jumbo Eye Pencil. 
I LOVE these pencils!! They compare to the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils and I feel that these are creamier than those and half the price! I got mine at a local dollar store for $1 each but you can find various sites that have them from $1.29-$1.45. These make for awesome bases for your eyeshadow and I have not used them for anything else. Because they are so creamy you have to be careful not to add to much and blend it out or you will get creasing. I highly recommend these pencils because you can't beat the price and like other LA Colors  products these are pigmented and amazing! 
Now onto pictures and swatches!
P.S. I am missing one in Pool Party.

L-R: Spring, Saltwater, Pretty in Pink, Desert Sun, Sand Castles and Relaxation

L-R: Sweet Wishes, Popsicle, Summer Love, Cherry Blossom and Bikini Time

L-R: Summer Time, Sun Kissed, Beach Resort, Iridescent Light, Limeade and Caribbean

I hope you guys enjoyed these swatches and it helps you in buying these if you decide to buy them! 
Thank you so much for reading!

FOTD: Pop of Color!

So I haven't done a FOTD in a while so I thought eh why not? So here it is! It's pretty simple but in person it  looks so much better! I love doing a neutral eye with a pop of color on the lower lash line! It adds a little something to a neutral everyday eye look. I had just gotten these LA Colors single eyeshadows about two weekends ago so I have a bit of an overdue haul that will be coming up soon. But for right now I decided to post this eyeshadow look. So on to what I used! 











I applied a bit of Popsicle Jumbo Eye Pencil from LA Colors on the inner 1/2 of my lid as a base and blended that out. 
I then added Bare Mauve eyeshadow pot from LA Colors on my crease as a transition color.
I then applied Just Peachy eyeshadow pot from LA Colors on the part where I applied the eye pencil.
After that I used the dark brown above the black in the 72 eyeshadow double stack palette to darken my crease a bit.
I then applied Fabulous Teal eyeshadow pot from LA Colors on my lower lashline to add a bit of some color to the look so it wouldn't be as bland. 
After taht I used Jane Black gel liner to line my top lash line and winged it out a bit. 
I applied Bare Naturale mascara from L'Oreal.
I applied a bit of some shimmery white eyeshadow from a Sephora Beauty Insider Birthday Present to my inner corner.
I then applied Peacock glitter liner to my lower lash line and then went over it with Lime Light glitter liner to add a little bit of something else.
For the rest of my face:
ELF Eyebrow Kit in Medium
ELF Contouring Blush & Bronzer in St. Lucia
Wet n Wild CoverAll Face Powder (Forgot the name and I don't have it near me)
Foundation I think I used Rimmel 100% Poreless also forgot which shade
Lips:
Fergie for Wet n Wild V.I.Pink

Thank you so much for reading! Oh and btw the LA Colors eyeshadow pots I got at a local dollar store and I might go back this weekend to get some more because I LOVE them! Well I love LA Color in general! Have an awesome night! 
XOXO
