PF Shimmer Strips Swatches (Smoky Hazel Eyes)

The lovely Jenny sent me this Physician's Formula Smoky Hazel Eyes Shimmer Strip palette in one my my love packges (Thanks, Jenny!). So I thought I'd share the swatches with you all.  She noted that this was her favorite neutral eyeshadow palette prior to the UD Naked palettes � and so far I�m loving the shadows/colors in this palette, too! 


The 9 colors included in this palette range from dark to light � making it a very versatile palette where you can easily create both day and night looks with just this one palette.  Moreover, the packaging is very compact � making it great for traveling.

Here are the swatches -- they're all nicely pigmented and beautiful neutral shades! They also apply smoothly and fall out was minimal for me. Creasing is minimal when used on top of an eye primer (I use Too Faced Shadow Insurance)

The only con of this palette is that there are no matte shadows. The darkest color (on the furthest right) is almost matte � so it can be used to set your eyeliner � but all other colors are shimmer shadows.

Overall, the PF shimmer strip for smoky hazel eyes is an amazing palette that I would definitely recommend to others. Plus, it�s a drugstore product, so super affordable!

Maximize Comfort: Walking in Heels

Walking in heels isn�t always the most comfortable experience, especially if they�re loose-fitting and/or slippery due to lack of grip on the bottom of the heels.  I already shared a quick fix for how to make loose-fitting heels fit; here�s a quick post regarding how to fix up those heels/flats that have no grip.

Whether shoes come with no traction or they get worn down, I can�t stand it when there is no grip at the bottom! It makes walking so difficult and dangerous! Lack of grip is especially dangerous when walking on smooth tile floors or slick, wet surfaces.  There are many adhesive products out there that add traction to the bottom of your shoes � I just happen to come across Sole Stopperz at Marshalls (I love Marshalls!).

These Foot Petal Sole Stopperz retail for $6.95 on footpetals.com, but can be found at more affordable prices at Marshalls. They are also sold at Amazon.com, Target, and other stores.

I bought mine at Marshalls for $2.99 (2 pairs/package):

Notice how textured it is:

Back has a peel-off adhesive:

Clean and dry the bottom of your shoe very well, then stick it on:

Yes, it�s that simple to make walking in heels that much easier.

Happy Walking : )
