No Video But a Hot Look

So I FINALLY (with the aid of my mother-in-law) found out how to take these close up shots and will now use my OWN eyes for the looks!!!!! I am SO excited. This eye uses Nylon on the inner corner faded into Bitter then Electric Eel and finally Deep Truth on the outer V. To soften the transition from the Nylon to the Bitter I patted a little Chrome Yellow. On the brow bone I used Vanilla. On the bottom lash line I used the darkest to the lightest color starting from the outside going in. Black liner and mascara finished off the look. Try it out ladies!!!!!!

Posts To Come...

Hey ladies. I just got some WoNdErFuL pigment colors from Beauty From the Earth and I am SO excited to get back to doing tutorials soon!!!! I spoke with the owner Crystal earlier this week and have some great things to tell you all about their company and the benefits of buying from them =). I also have new looks that I've been working on. One uses All That Glitters (a shimmery gold with pink undertones), Era (soft brown) and Deep Truth (deep navy blue). The navy on top of the brown is AWESOME!!!! Sky blue & lavender, peach & maroons. Also, some Holiday looks and New Year creations. I am also working on tutorials for doing liquid liner, working with smaller eyes, and how to apply perfect false eyelashes. Stay tuned!!!!!!

Headband HEAVEN!!!!

Okay, so right now at Forever21 you can get these amazing headbands!!! They remind me of when Gwen Stefani wore those perfect flowers in her hair to an awards show. The only catch that I have found with such an enormous flower is to match the height with your hair. It looks best when you do the retro look I showed you for Twilight. In this case I put my hair in a tight bun in the back. This headband is a MUST and I can only hope that they will come up with more colors. They have other sizes and shapes but this one was my favorite. It was $5.99 and SO worth it!!! Go and get em ladies!!!!!

Are You All Down For a Little Test?????

Okay, it is official. After hearing all of your reviews and doing some looking on the net I am OFFICIALLY going to go out and get the Voluminous mascara. I saw a review on YouTube where a girl used a really expensive brand on one eye and then the Voluminous on the other. At the end of the day (and even through out) she kept us updated on how well the two held up. Did they flake, did they weight the lashes down. From what I could see the Voluminous was BETTER!!!! She said that they were the exact same but the one side seemed to fan out more and I am for SURE a fan of that!!! Go out if you haven't already and you can do this test with me. We will start on the 22nd of December and see what we think after a week. I want to hear comments from ALL of you. If you use it now, then tell us why you are hooked and don't want to change. If not, then tell us what you are seeing good and bad from this mascara. I'm excited!!!!! Go out and get your mascara on!!!!!!

Tipsy Tuesday....just written on Wednesday =)

Moisturizer!!!!! Even if you have oily skin (like I do). Your makeup application will go more smoothly, evenly and cover better. I LoVe Mary Kay's Time Wise age fighting moisturizer. It is like a DRINK to your skin but not greasy at ALL!!!!! It's oil free and great for sensitive skin too. I can put on my makeup immediately following. Go find something that works for you and USE it!!!! If we are going to do our makeup everyday, we might as well give our skin the hydration it needs. Also doesn't hurt that it helps with the elasticity of your skin as well. This is a win win people!!!!!

Tipsy Tuesday

Is my mascara running?????

So, you have done your eyeshadow and it is PerFectIoN!!!!! You go to apply your mascara with precision and ease when......NOOOOOOOOO. You get it all over your lid messing up the magic of the eyeshadow that was once there. Instead of totally lifting up your eyebrows and getting a headache, just tilt you head as far back as comfortable thereby separating your lashes and you lid....you gotta keep 'em separated!!!! Whoah, bad joke!!!!

Sad News

So, my husband sold our laptop that had the camera on it. Yes this means that I can no longer do tutorials for the time being. He is trying to set up our other camera as quickly as possible!!!!! I will start doing "Tuesdays Tips"...or "Tipsy Tuesday" (as I like to think of it) and "Thrifty Thursdays" with pictures and reviews, but don't lose hope!!!!!!!! I am still here and I am still loving the fact that I get to interact and share with you =). "See" you soon!!!!!!
