FOTD: Sunset w/ Strong Crease

My intention for this was for it to be a sunset look... it didn't come out how I wanted really but I still like it. I'm having major issues with either my TFSI, eyeshadows, or brushes. I feel like I can't get vibrant color payoff lately, everything I do is just shimmery with a hint of whatever color I want intending for it to be. I'm gonna give my brushes a good deep cleaning this weekend and see if maybe they're just worn out and need replacing. But in the mean time, it's been awfully frustrating.

I was slightly inspired by Marlena's recent Cherry Coke tutorial, I loved the sharp purple crease. I also realized while trying to do this that I need better brushes... mine just seem to blend the color away no matter what I do.

I also incorporated my To The Beach goodies! Love the lipstick and lipglass :)

Enjoy!

^ Was trying to get the teal reflects in Flurry of Fun... not much luck.

Oh, and... my outfit of the day, a dress I got at H&M, love its fluffiness! I wanted to go all black and use accessories for color.
