Are you going to New Moon when it premieres?
Are you going to sparkle?
The story behind the story
A few weeks ago on Aromaleigh's forum, for theme week, it was my turn to suggest the week's theme. I was telling Book Girl, and she suggested having a Vampire Week, based on the movie Twilight, and the book series.
So that's what I suggested. I suggested doing a vampire look based on Twilight, using any colors, so long as their skin sparkled in sunlight, which is easy to do with Aromaleigh.
Many entered into the spirit of it, even if they hadn't heard of the book(s) or movie. That particular theme week had 1582 views and 74 responses, to date. Even Kristin, the founder of Aromaleigh, contributed a look.
And then Kristin developed three powders based on Twilight.
The Twilight DVD came out at midnight Friday night, and we were there -- in two cities! Book Girl was out of town.
Twilight Sparkle supernatural powder
This is the first one I've tried in this set of three. The glitter is very fine and shows up on my hand. On my face, it is a very sheer, sheeny look, not a glimmer look. My own mix is more sparkly, though there is more sparkle in the AL. I applied it with a FO brush.
Twilight Sparkle contains distinct shimmering iridescent glimmers. In the sunlight or under bright light, it shimmers like radiant tiny diamonds. Apply over skin that you have applied lotion to (preferably with a high SPF, of course!), the effect is even more pronounced, and the product will stay longer on your skin. Twilight Sparkle may slightly lighten your skin, but it is formulated to be suitable for many skintones, in a transparent base.
FOTD
I chose to wear it in my FOTD today in honor of the DVD debut.
Tomorrow I will show a second powder which you can find here.

hmm, I don’t know how I feel about those. It looks interesting, but I don’t like my face to sparkle unless its blush or eye shadow that doesn’t look like glitter, you know?
I find too many bronzer or sparkly powders make you look sweaty…not with a glow.
I think I had too much glow with the flash.
You look vampirey to me!
In the nicest possible way, LOL!
Sasha, I was thinking about this again this morning. I don’t want to look sweaty. I really never sweat. I want to look dewy, not matte. Most folks have a T-zone that will give a dewy glow, so long as it isn’t excessive and looking sweaty.
