Sushi Blumen » Shroom http://www.sushiblumen.com A MAC junkie's bad attempts at good makeup and more! Sat, 04 Sep 2010 01:53:02 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 en hourly 1 And the time keeps on ticking away…. http://www.sushiblumen.com/2010/05/11/and-the-time-keeps-on-ticking-away/ http://www.sushiblumen.com/2010/05/11/and-the-time-keeps-on-ticking-away/#comments Wed, 12 May 2010 03:55:28 +0000 admin http://www.sushiblumen.com/?p=876 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 do believe this is the first time I’ve used Seeds of Love in a look!

    I’ve done some selling of some stuff, so I need to update my collection page. Housekeeping to do!!

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 :(

    It was pretty, but didn’t have great staying power like normal MAC shadows do. But I was happy to finally use these shadows, I’ve had them sitting around since last fall!

Decided to give a blue look another chance. I’m STILL finding blues awkward :(

    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.

    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 :)
