Playing a bit of catchup!
Wednesday, October 13th, 2010I like it!
Wednesday, April 21st, 2010I really ended loving this look! It’s fun, but still in a subtle way. Lime green that’s wearable?!

I think I finally felt like Nice Kitty Lipglass was wearable. Neon pink can be intimidating, but it worked for this look! I really need to try to use my lipglasses more often, they are so neglected

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!
Look for March 3, 2010
Friday, March 5th, 2010Once 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!

Tastes like cake!
Monday, December 21st, 2009Not that I’ve advocating the tasting of Shadesticks 
Face
Eyes
Cakekshop applied all over lid and crease as a base. Warm Chill applied over lid. Satin Taupe applied in crease. Humid used to darken outer V. Vex applied as a highlight under brows. Zero applied to lower waterline.
This was my first time ever using a Shadestick. Cakeshop is pretty… it’s a sparkly beige with some green in it (at least I see some green). Gave an extra sparkle to the shadows I applied over it.
On a neutral kick…
Monday, November 30th, 2009I have been doing a lot of neutral looks lately.. probably a good and a bad thing. Good because out there in the “real world,” usually neutral makeup is what’s acceptable; bad because I feel like I’m neglecting all my pretty, bright colors when I have the chance to use them.
So here is a soft neutral look I did for November 29, 2009. It didn’t photograph as well as I wanted it to unfortunately, but the point gets across.
Face
Eyes
Painterly applied as a base. Solar White applied to inner corners with 219 brush, and as a highlight with 275 brush. All That Glitters applied over the rest of the lid with a 239 brush. Satin Taupe applied in crease and outer V with 217 brush. Corrupt applied along upper lash line and lower waterline.
It’s a very gentle that still brings some pop to the eyes, especially the Solar White in the inner corners.
And I’ll try to do a bright look soon, haha!
November 28, 2009
Saturday, November 28th, 2009I completely forgot that I had Star Violet! So I finally got around to using it today. It definitely is a unique color, had to classify into a color group really. I’ll have to get it depotted and into my palette soon…
Eyes
Painterly applied as a base. Beautiful Iris applied to inner corner of lid with 239 and 219 brushes. Star Violet applied over rest of the lid with 239 brush. Satin Taupe applied to crease with 219 brush. Vanilla used as a highlight with 272 brush. Zero applied to lower waterline.
Neutral with a pop?
