As you can tell, the updates don’t come as often anymore
For work during the week I usually just slap on some neutral colors and call it good. And then I’ve been sick lately, so last weekend I didn’t get to play with makeup like I usually do.
I’m falling out of practice!!!!

I wanted to do something with color for work (like I’ve said over and over… all neutrals every day gets me a bit down) so I decided to re-try an old look. I think it came out a lot better, but then again, all my looks from a year ago looked downright scary! I hadn’t started using products in my crease, and I’m not sure I even attempted to blend. Oh what a difference a year can make!!!

I really ended loving this look! It’s fun, but still in a subtle way. Lime green that’s wearable?!

I had to work today, but I still took some quick pictures of the looks I did. Usually during the week I just throw random neutral colors together, but I took this combination out of my list of combinations to try!

Brought out the colors from the Pandemonium Eyes quad that was out several years ago. I really like these colors in combination (unlike other quads where it seems like it’s just random colors thrown in).
I finally figured out how to use Blacktrack on my waterline… I have to hold it away from my eye and let it dry. That stops it from sticking to my contacts. In one of the pics the Blacktrack on my contact is visible, gross, haha. After I took the pics I cleaned off my contact and put it back in. The good thing is that Blacktrack has UBER staying power on my waterline! I’m in love!!!

Later after work I decided to add some Blacktrack Fluidline to my waterline because I heard it’s awesome on waterlines. Well… ha. It adhered to my contacts, and wouldn’t come off! I ended up having to take my contacts out, putting them in to soak (I think they might be ruined honestly), and wearing my glasses the rest of the day. BUT… it DOES last longer than Urban Decay Zero does on my waterline, so that’s a good sign! I’ll just have to figure out how to apply it and not get it all over my contacts. Did I finally solve my black waterline liner issues?!
I received some new goodies as well from a sale off of Specktra… I got Sunbasque blush and a vial of Teal pigment. All for $15 shipped! I’m pleased. Sunbasque gives me a nice warm glow, and luckily it’s fairly sheer so it can be built. Teal was just an impulse buy, I figured for that price I might as well get it!

Sundays are my day off, so I took the chance to do a look I wouldn’t otherwise do, especially for. Decided to give a blue look another chance. I’m STILL finding blues awkward

The last few days of work last week I did this look:
Eyes
MAC Painterly Paint Pot
MAC Woodwinked Eyeshadow
MAC Tempting Eyeshadow
MAC Soft Brown Eyeshadow
MAC Retrospeck Eyeshadow
MAC Vanilla Eyeshadow
I love it! I think it might become my “routine” look for work, maybe with substitutes here and there for some of the colors. It’s quick and easy, and all of those shades easily blend together, so I don’t have to spend a lot of time blending out difficult finishes.

Later that night (I’m writing this entry on March 20th) I redid my makeup, but didn’t get any pictures. I used Lucky Green all over my lid, and then Bottle Green in the outer V and crease. Really dark and dramatic green look

Painterly applied as a base. Bright Sunshine applied all over lid. Bio-Green applied in crease and outer V. Bottle Green used to darken the outer V. Shroom used to blend out the top of the crease, and Ricepaper applied as a highlight. Graffiti applied under lower lashes and on waterline.
