    I should’ve done Parrot under my lower lashes, not sure why I didn’t?! I didn’t realize Amber Lights was so orange-y, or so it appeared today. Still a neat look. Still plugging away on my journal of looks I need to try!!

    Loathing Honey Lust…

    Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

    The topic of MAC’s Honey Lust eyeshadow came up last night when I was formspringing my friend… realizing I haven’t used it in literally years (that I can remember), I decided I’d give it a try today. I really loathe that eyeshadow, I really do. It’s just about the only MAC eyeshadow I’ll flat out say I hate. And guess what? Still loathe it. I think I ended up with more fallout all over my face than I did with actual product on my lid… sucks, because it is a pretty color! It’s just a glitterbomb. I suppose I could try applying it wet, but is it worth that amount of effort?!

    I paired it with Trax so I could have a look of what seems to be MAC’s two most hated eyeshadows according to people on the forums, heh. Now I do like Trax, so all hope wasn’t lost today!

    Hmm, trying to use more pinks lately :) One of my more neglected palettes indeed. Today was a fairly calm/simple look…

    I rarely line my upper lashes, let alone with Blacktrack, so this was something different. Just felt that it was too plain and needed liner. :)

    Making a “night look”

    Saturday, January 30th, 2010

    Yesterday’s look with Stars N’ Rockets and Carbon wasn’t quite a “day look” by any means for most people… but later on I did darken it up and added more eyeliner to take it to a more “night look.”

    I added more Carbon in the crease and outer V. Under the lower lash line I used Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil in Ransom, and did a thin line along the upper lashes as well.

    Here’s the updated look:

    0129extra

    Little darker, little more dramatic! Ransom blended in beautifully with Stars N’ Rockets, and sure does have lasting power! I love how those particular Urban Decay liners do not smudge or budge!

    A little bit of Blackground…

    Friday, January 29th, 2010

    I haven’t used my Blackground paint pot too much, so I brought it out today. MAC Stars N’ Rockets eyeshadow over it looks gorgeous! Usually on it’s own or over a neutral paint pot it’s a very pinky-purple color, but over Blackground the blue duochrome really comes out!

    1 Minute Eyes

    Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

    Today I was in a rush, and didn’t have time to go through my usual makeup routine of multi eyeshadows, foundation, etc. So here’s my “1 Minute Eyes” look I came up with!

    Eyes

  • MAC Fresco Rose Paint Pot
  • MAC Vex Eyeshadow
  • Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero
  • Make Up For Ever Lash Fibers
  • Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash Mascara
  • 0126closeup

    Didn’t photograph too well, but it’s a simple and pretty pink-ish look. Just a bit of color to spice up an otherwise boring look! I was thinking how easy it’d be to take something like Contrast, and darken up the outer V, and transform the look, too.

    Fun look for today

    Monday, January 25th, 2010

    This was on my list of ones to try… crazier than what I usually would do, but today is laundry day, and what’s neater than crazy eyes for laundry day, right?!

    Eyes

  • MAC Painterly Paint Pot
  • MAC Chrome Yellow Eyeshadow
  • MAC One Off Eyeshadow
  • MAC Electric Eel Eyeshadow
  • MAC Crystal Avalanche Eyeshadow
  • MAC Cranberry Eyeshadow

  • Make Up For Ever Lash Fibers
  • Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash Mascara
  • Painterly applied as a base all over lid. Chrome Yellow applied on inner third of lid. One Off applied in middle of lid. Electric Eel applied to outer third and crease. Crystal Avalanche applied in crease, and under inner half of lower lashes. Cranberry used as a liner for upper and lower lashes. Zero applied to lower waterline.

    Playing with some lesser used purples

    Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

    As much as I use my purple eyeshadows, I have a few that don’t get used as often, so today I brought them out! I also used my liquid foundation today, and wow! I forgot how light it feels, and how great my skin looks with it!

    Pictureless Post for Today!

    Friday, January 22nd, 2010

    On another makeup free kick… UGH! I did wear some last week, but didn’t take pictures. I did another variety of my Hypnotizing with Mulch, a bit more smokier. Then just some neutral stuff.

    I have no pictures for my look today (it just wasn’t that impressive), but I can give the rundown…

  • MAC Ricepaper eyeshadow

  • Make Up for Ever Smoky Lash Mascara
  • Not the biggest fan of 100 Strokes… always comes out a muddy black color. Definitely one of those things that look a lot better in the pan!

    I have my eye on Lucky Green eyeshadow that just got re-released. It was funny… people had theirs for sale for $40, and then MAC went and released the eyeshadow again. Sucks to be them! :D Since it’s out permanently now I have time to think about if I want it.

    Bringing more blues into my life…

    Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

    Gotta shop that stash and do more stuff with blues!! :)

    Definitely like this look… not too blue! I think I’ll have to try mixing my blues with other shades to find stuff that’s wearable to me. All blue looks just rub me wrong.

    On a side note, I’ve been at this blog for over a year now! Yay! And WOW, I’ve come a LONG way in application technique/blending/etc! It’s so nice to be able to look back and see improvement :) Which is exactly why I started this blog, because I wanted to document my looks and see improvement, and perhaps help a few others along the way :)

    So I’ve been a bit behind on updating!! I have two looks to post… unfortunately I didn’t get pictures of my New Year’s Eve look… but it was just my typical smokey purple eye look, just a bit heavier than usual. Also did a few neutral looks without pictures…

    Bringing out Pure Ore!

    Sunday, December 27th, 2009

    Wow, I feel like I’ve owned Pure Ore for ages! It’s been over 2 years since it was released, and I’ve used it maybe 5 times tops, usually as a liner :( I was browsing specktra.net’s “Shop Your Stash” thread for ideas, and came across a look using it so I had to give it a try!

    I’m loving it!! It’s not too harsh of a look in real life (so my mom says, she often says my makeup is too dark :D ). Nice and sparkly and shiny. I’ve never used Pure Ore like this, so I’m glad I tried something new! Makes me wish I had the silver product from Metal-X, or hell, all of the colors!

    First Melon Look – Day Version

    Friday, December 18th, 2009

    I’ve had Melon pigment since October sometime… just finally got around to using it! It applied as a very bright yellow gold on my lids, which kind of disappointed me since it’s a orange-y pink in the container. I won’t give up on it, though, still a nice product.

    I might have two version to this look, day and night. This is the day version. I am going out with friends tonight so I’m going to freshen up my makeup and maybe make it a bit darker. So the night version will be posted in a few days when I’m back!

    Time to go to the defense of Trax… what the heck is everyone’s problem with this shadow? It applies fine… sure, not as nice as a veluxe pearl finish one would, but it’s NOT that terrible. And it’s a pretty color? Yeah, I just don’t know. I have my faith in this shadow!

    This look was for December 4, 2009. I was going out with a few friends, and it was about 20 degrees out, so quite chilly! So I figured this would be the chance to try out Warm Chill. The “Shop Your Stash” thread on specktra has really pushed me to start using stuff that I have never touched before, and Warm Chill, Bottle Green, and Goldmine were 3 products I had yet to use.

    Yesterday I did a look with MAC Henna eyeshadow all over my lid, MAC Bronze eyeshadow in the crease, and MAC Ricepaper Eyeshadow to highlight. I was iffy on it, and so I didn’t take any pictures.
