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)

Eyes

  • MAC Painterly Paint Pot
  • MAC Fade Eyeshadow
  • MAC Aquadisiac Eyeshadow
  • MAC Deep Truth Eyeshadow
  • MAC Shroom Eyeshadow
  • MAC Cloudbound Eyeshadow
  • MAC Auto-de-blu Technakohl Liner
  • Make Up For Ever Lash Fibers
  • Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash Mascara

    Different I suppose :)

    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.

    Such a bleh day :(

    The weather is such a bummer today :( It’s felt so dark all day, and rain rain rain rain! Yesterday was sunny, so to wake up to this today is crappy.

    On Sunday night I ordered a few things from the Container Store to organize my collection with. Much to my disappointment I haven’t seen a change on my order status, and oddly enough, haven’t received a confirmation email of me ever even placing the order. If I don’t see a change tomorrow on the status, I think I’ll give them a ring and see what’s up. I’m overly eager to get these things! I ordered a clear acrylic DVD rack (thank you MAC for making the palettes DVD sized!) for, duh, my palettes. Along with that, I ordered an acrylic rack/tray that I am going to use to store all my pencils and mascaras “Sephora style” with beads at the bottom. The Dixie cup I am currently using just isn’t cutting it! Container Store has lots of awesome storage solutions, and they’re reasonably priced! So hopefully my order ships soon. The whole not getting the order confirmation email, even 2 days later, is worrying me. Woe is me.

    LOL, what’s a makeup blog?!

    I’ll be honest, I’ve been lazy… sometimes I just don’t feel like taking pictures, and then posting what I did. Or if I did take pictures, I never ended up posting them…

    Today inspired me, though, as it was something a bit unusual compared to my usual mascara only, or “normal” fall backs.

    • MAC Mineralize loose foundation in Medium (109 brush)

    Eyes

    • MAC Painterly paint pot as base
    • MAC Chrome Yellow e/s inner half, and lower lashes
    • MAC Electric Eel e/s in middle to blend the two colors, and lower lashes
    • MAC Atlantic Blue e/s in outer half
    • MAC Felt Blue e/s in crease
    • MAC Fade e/s to blend
    • MAC Crystal Avalanche e/s to blend
    • MAC Shroom e/s as highlight
    • MAC Auto-De-Blue Technakohl Eyeliner along upper lashes
    • MAC Brow Finisher in Blonde
