I've posted my tutorial about the false lashes.
To show the glitter line of the lashes:
Eyes:
Base: Nude Frost + BE Queen Phyllis
Aromaleigh shadows
Center of lid: Clara en pointe
Outer corner and crease: Pique en pointe
Inner corner and drylined lower: Arabesque en pointe
Interesting how all the different shimmers work together, and you really can't tell by looking in the ziplocks.
Arabesque: A refined bluish green with highlight shimmers of green and gold. Multi-facted and rich frost. (Frost)
Piqué: A lovely mauved purply brown with light-changing lustre, travels from purply-blue to blue-green. (Sheen)
Clara: Festive warm purple with a twist... an unexpected smokey base and a sweet blue and pink traveling iridescent highlight. (Frost)
Mascara: Stiletto Black
Lashes: Ardel Glamourous Lashes -- black with glitter along skin edge
I wanted to try something really different, not just plain lashes as I used to wear. Why not!
Upper Inner Lid lined to match into lashes: White glitter gel -- I might put some on the lower later.
Upper Inner Lid beneath the glitter and lower tightlined: MAC graphblack -- doing this beneath the glitter made the line of the lashes blend into my own eye.
Lower Tightlined: MAC Navy Stain pencil
Lips Borghese Chilled Wine
This is a pretty color in RL, more luminescent than the picture shows. I prefer more of a gloss look. I should have used 1/2 gloss, but was going for more of the lash thang. It matches the shadow color though!

Ooh, I love this look!
I’m not really into false lashes of any kind, but I love bright colours!
Have you tried foiling your mineral eyeshadows or using them wet?
I really only got into doing it recently, but I really like the way it brightens up a lot of colours.
Thanks, Sasha. I don’t foil much, because most colors are bright enough on me to begin with. Also, I am mostly using ziplock bags with samples so it isn’t very easy to do. I don’t want to wet down the product in the baggie, and I don’t want to spill too much of it out in order to wet some of the product down. I occasionally do it for wetlining. And I occasionally will use a damp brush to go over it, once I applied it dry.
