    Bringing out the color…

    Sunday, March 21st, 2010

    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 :(

    (Nothing on my face today… just eyes)

    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.

    St. Patty’s Day Look

    Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

    I had to work, so I kept it on the tamer side. Trust me, I would’ve preferred to break out my green pigments and go to town!

    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 :)

    Playin’ with color finally!

    Friday, March 12th, 2010

    Figured out I don’t have to do neutrals every day, I can throw some color in there here and there :)

    I don’t know what went wrong, by the end of the day it looked like I had no shadow on :( I’m not the biggest fan of Hypnotizing, payoff seems to suck. I guess I’ll have to experiment with it more and see what happens!

    Bringin’ out the Greens

    Monday, March 8th, 2010

    My life is going to be a whole lot more neutral looks, so today I did something bright. And I realized that all the main colors are MAC Pro shades, weird!

    My take on a “professional, interview” look

    Saturday, March 6th, 2010

    Trust me, I can be at a lost on how to do looks like this! I’m so use to bright colors and a dark, smoky look so I actually have to carefully think about my makeup when doing a professional look.

    Overall matte, kind of dull look :D

    I used my liquid foundation as my skin has just been horrible lately, so I figured better coverage would be good. I have NO idea why I am breaking out like I am. I scarcely use my moisturizer, and I’ve been using my cleanser since November. So I am not sure what is happening. I don’t know if I’m breaking out because it’s so dry being winter? Ugh…

    I also need new MUFE Lash Fibers like yesterday. Living so far away from a Sephora or MAC store sucks!!

    Once again running a bit behind… I’ve come down with a cold which SUCKS! First time all winter that I’ve been sick, so I’ve been hiding out in bed trying to get better.

    I really like this look! Amber Lights and Cranberry blend effortlessly together and look gorgeous paired up!

    Cool heat in the club…

    Friday, February 12th, 2010

    This was posted today on specktra.net’s “Shop Your Stash Challenge” thread, and decided I’d try it out! I don’t think I’ve ever really used Cool Heat since I’ve bought it. Turned out well, a bit smoky and dark for a day look, but definitely something I’m not scared to try out again. A blue look I like?!

    Deflt makes a beautiful base for Cool Heat!

    Something I didn’t think of until now, but I bet MAC Blue Brown pigment would also go well with this look. I’ve had that pigment since last fall and still haven’t gotten around to using it, so I might have to repeat this look with that pigment sometime soon.
