    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!!

    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.

    Loathing Honey Lust…

    Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

    The topic of MAC’s Honey Lust eyeshadow came up last night when I was formspringing my friend… realizing I haven’t used it in literally years (that I can remember), I decided I’d give it a try today. I really loathe that eyeshadow, I really do. It’s just about the only MAC eyeshadow I’ll flat out say I hate. And guess what? Still loathe it. I think I ended up with more fallout all over my face than I did with actual product on my lid… sucks, because it is a pretty color! It’s just a glitterbomb. I suppose I could try applying it wet, but is it worth that amount of effort?!

    I paired it with Trax so I could have a look of what seems to be MAC’s two most hated eyeshadows according to people on the forums, heh. Now I do like Trax, so all hope wasn’t lost today!

    A little bit of Blackground…

    Friday, January 29th, 2010

    I haven’t used my Blackground paint pot too much, so I brought it out today. MAC Stars N’ Rockets eyeshadow over it looks gorgeous! Usually on it’s own or over a neutral paint pot it’s a very pinky-purple color, but over Blackground the blue duochrome really comes out!

    Playing with some lesser used purples

    Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

    As much as I use my purple eyeshadows, I have a few that don’t get used as often, so today I brought them out! I also used my liquid foundation today, and wow! I forgot how light it feels, and how great my skin looks with it!

    Tropical Teals

    Sunday, January 10th, 2010

    OK, I couldn’t take not wearing any makeup any longer! I have nothing planned today except for some working out, but I just had to do a look :) So here’s something tropical (tropical to me at least)… to remind me that winter won’t last forever :)

    I don’t do very many teal/blue looks… I guess because they don’t come off as being very wearable… but I definitely like today’s look! It’s fun and playful and doesn’t scream “crazy old lady blue eyeshadow.” Glad I finally gave it a try, and maybe I can try to work in more colorful looks. Neutrals can get so drab :(

    First Melon Look – Day Version

    Friday, December 18th, 2009

    I’ve had Melon pigment since October sometime… just finally got around to using it! It applied as a very bright yellow gold on my lids, which kind of disappointed me since it’s a orange-y pink in the container. I won’t give up on it, though, still a nice product.

    I might have two version to this look, day and night. This is the day version. I am going out with friends tonight so I’m going to freshen up my makeup and maybe make it a bit darker. So the night version will be posted in a few days when I’m back!

    Might as well do Christmas looks when I can, right? :D

    Yesterday I did a look with MAC Henna eyeshadow all over my lid, MAC Bronze eyeshadow in the crease, and MAC Ricepaper Eyeshadow to highlight. I was iffy on it, and so I didn’t take any pictures.

    November 28, 2009

    Saturday, November 28th, 2009

    I 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…

    New Old Gold

    Friday, October 30th, 2009

    My empty pans that I have coming so I can press my pigments have been out for delivery for 2 days now… it’s really starting to annoy me! I thought they were coming yesterday… no. So, ok, today! NO… Luckily I have stuff going on tonight so I wouldn’t have time to press anyway. But I swear if they don’t come tomorrow, I’m placing an angry phone call!

    Look of the day for October 29th

    Thursday, October 29th, 2009

    I think this is a pretty “neutral” look that could be toned down if needed.  It’s amazing how versatile these shades can be, and I wonder how I lived without them!

    I don’t know why I keep on using MAC Black Russian on my waterline when Urban Decay Zero goes above and beyond what any other liner can?!  Zero actually lasts longer than 2 minutes on my waterline, and keeps it’s vibrancy.  So I really need to stop reaching for Black Russian and other shades of black for my waterline, and use Zero.  *Pounds it into memory*

    Undecided…

    Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

    I’m not too sure about today’s look. Reminds me too much of what I did on Saturday for one. And overall it kind of makes me go ehhhh. But this was on my list of combinations to try, so at least I got it out of the way!

    • MAC Mineralize loose foundation in Medium

    • MAC Brow Finisher in Blonde
    • Make Up For Ever Smokey Lash Mascara

    Painterly applied as base.  Smoke & Diamonds all over lid with 239 brush.  Climate Blue blended into crease and outer V with 217 brush.  Lucky Tom used to darken outer V and crease with 222 brush.  Vanilla as highlight and to blend out crease, 272 brush.  Lined upper lashes and lower waterline with Binge, and using a 219 brush, lined lower lashes with Climate Blue.

    1028closeup

    1028closeup2

    Just ehhhh…

    And I never thought Smoke & Diamonds was so brownish until today. I guess I haven’t used it that much, but I was surprised. So yeah… too much like Saturday and not something that really makes me excited.

    Edit – I know what could fix it! I think if I left out the blue, and did just Lucky Tom and Smoke & Diamonds that could look nice! I’m going to write it down for future use!

    Friday, October 9th, 2009

    I feel like this is something kinda unusual for me… It is something off of my list of combinations to try (though I did my own highlight/blend and liners). I like it, though! I kind of did a messy job (especially with the liner), so it’s not perfect looking, but I definitely think this is something I would do again, and in different variations with different colors.

    Bleh, I’m so dark under my eyes :( But… I am too lazy to put on a bunch of concealer, especially when I am not doing anything special. Hence my powder foundation – I don’t like to be all gloppy with products.

    Crappy crappy pictures!

    Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

    Boo, my normal camera that I take my pics with had its battery die, so I had to use my fancier point and shoot. It’s flash is really powerful, so I had to take today’s pictures without flash so they don’t look the best.

    I got this idea off of macmakeup.net’s list of eyeshadow combination.

    Face

    • MAC Mineralize loose foundation in Medium (109 brush)
    • MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Blonde (168 brush)

    Eyes

    • MAC Painterly paint pot as base
    • MAC Lotusland e/s all over lid
    • MAC Smoke & Diamonds e/s in crease
    • MAC Vanilla e/s to blend
    • MAC Shroom e/s under brow
    • MAC Powerpoint eyeliner in Grey Utility along upper lashes (I later darkened it up a bit with Black Russian Pearlglide liner, but after I took the pictures)
    • MAC Clear Brow Finish
    • Make Up For Ever Lash Fibers
    • Make Up For Ever Smokey Lash mascara

    Lips

    • MAC Fast Friends lipglass

    god those pictures look like crap!

    Also, I feel like lately that the makeup just isn’t “sticking” to me. I’ll apply, and then 15 minutes later it’s really faded??? I don’t know what’s up :( It’s getting disgruntling.
