If I were you, I’d leave my twitter page and Youtube page linked to everything I do online, including on questions and answers on here. You never know who might see it and click on it. Also, on Twitter, I’d start interacting with my followers about the product/service.
If you haven’t checked it out already, you should try http://www.etsy.com. It’s a website especially for crafters to sell their products. They’ve got all kinds of categories there, including makeup (subcategory of Health & Beauty), and handbags/purses.
Good luck!
Make sure that the people in your own area know that you make wonderful items. Look at your local grocery store, bank, post office, library and see if there are bulletin boards where you could put up a well designed flyer. Also, check the local gift shops to see if you could do consignments. Check with the local beauty shops for your eyeshadows to have space on display. Go to any resort areas nearby for gift stores. One of our local restaurants showcases local artists of all kinds including jewelry, fine art, hand knits, etc. There may be something like that in your area.
