    This turned out great! I went ahead and added in most of the products onto this post from the database, but on your blog, you called the black MUG shadow “Carbon” — I’m guessing you meant “Corrupt” :)

    This is gorgeous! Especially the blending!
    Just wanted to put it out there but I think people fail to make the distinction between Arabic and Islamic. The makeup is Arabic; the Hijab, or head covering, is an Islamic symbol based on faith and certain beliefs. Arabs only make up 15% of the Muslim population :)
