Cranberry Smoke

I had no idea what to call this post. I asked Chris and he said "Hazel me blue"...men..especially him lol.. Silly silly.

This is a look I did the other night just out of the blue, I was going to work on some Halloween makeup looks until I realized I barely had any makeup remover, so it resulted in just ONE look for now. I know tomorrow is Halloween and I'm going to try and work on something awesome! I just hope that it works out! I need to see if I have the costume for it. >D Anyways, so this is the look I came up with! Thank you too Tricia for helping me think of a name! I was hung up on something else, but it didn't fit and Chris' definitely didn't fit at all! :P

Easter Face Of The Day!

Purchased Myself/Press Sample

Hello everyone!

I am so sorry that I've practically disappeared! D: I went from working 8 hours a week to between 26-36 hours a week! It's been pretty hectic and I never intended to let my blog pretty much lay dormant for almost two weeks! I do have some guest posts coming! I'm just waiting on the emails and I do have a couple of posts scheduled myself! I can't even describe how good it feels to be typing a post again! Anyways, anways back too the post at hand!

I hope everyone has an amazing Easter! If you don't celebrate Easter, then I hope you have just as an amazing day as well!

I have to work tonight and decided to do a full face of makeup! :O I typically only wear eyeshadow and maybe liner. bahha. I had this whole grand look planned out and everything, it's all I thought about this morning... then I realized the gorgeous pink Sugarpill eye shadow I THOUGHT I had, wasn't real. I do have a pink shadow but I thought I had Dollipop.. I don't know why I thought I had it, but I did. Alas. I made due though! I still love how my eyes turned out so woohoo!

EYES: 

• Urban Decay Primer Potion ♥ Original
• Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner ♥ Woodstock (entire lid)
• Sugarpill Cosmetics ♥ (Crease/Outer/corner)
• Sugarpill Cosmetics ♥ Birthday Girl (entire lid, overtop Woodstock)
• Sugarpill Cosmetics ♥ Lumi (Inner Corner)
• Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner ♥ Demolition (waterline/tightliner)
• Ellis Faas Mascara**
• NYX Gel Liner & Smudger ♥ Jet Black 
• Senna Cosmetics Brow Fix X ♥ Golden Brown X

FACE:

• Urban Decay Primer Potion (all over face)
• Stila Stay All Day prime & anti-shine balm*
• TEMPTU Pro S/B Concealer Wheel (Shade 2, 3, & 4)*
• TEMPTU airPOD Foundation ♥ 004 Sand*
• Rimmel London Stay Matte ♥ 011 Creamy Natural

And just because here is the picture that I posted on Instagram from my phone! I LOVE how my eye looks in this! *swoons*

This was pre-doing my hair and no glasses. I really love the pink and purple together!

As per usual there is nothing on my lips, it's going to be lip balm for me, like normal, especially at work it's one less thing to worry about! I'm also sure that you noticed my liner wasn't totally straight etc and both eyes are different. Yes girls and boys, if you have tried winged liner you know it's a complete B to do! I've been using liquid liner to do them as of late but have been trying this gel liner out. All I can say is ay dios mio! I still love how it turned out though!

Are you doing anything special on your eyes or nails?!

New Years Eve Makeup!

Purchased Myself | PR Sample

Here's the rest of the post! I was going to put this and the nails together, but I decided to split them up. 

I'm still trying to get used too my camera, plus I had the light WAY too close to my face. Lol. Amateur mistake. 

I don't know about anyone else, but wearing silver on my eyes for New Years Eve is a staple and traditional thing for me to do. I wear silver and black EVERY year, this year I decided to change it up though.

This was pre-mascara. I started taking pictures and realized I didn't have it on. Fail #2

EYES;;

Milani eye shadow primer 

Revlon ColorStay ShadowLinks Plum (Crease)

Urban Decay; Busted (crease)

                                Naked/Foxy (blending colors)

Sugarpill Tiara (lid)

Milani Eye Tech Extreme Blackest Black

Graftobian Magic Set Mixing & Lining Liquid

Rimmel MAX VolumeFlash Extreme Black

FACE;;

TEMPTU AirPod Foundation Sand

TEMPTU Pro S/B Concealer Wheel 4th Darkest 

Rimmel Stay Matte 011 Natural

NYX Blush Sand

Urban Decay Shakedown (contour)

I didn't do a lip color. I typically don't, I didn't really feel the need for one since we're not doing anything.

There's a reason I decided to show this picture even though it's mostly blurry. I love that is macro'd on my lashes. Uhm yes, love that!

I don't normally do cat eyes, but I'm really impressed with this one. I know they're a bit lopsided and what not, but I think it came out looking really nice!

What makeup are you wearing for New Years Eve!?!? I would LOVE to know and see it!

Birthday Makeup & Nails! :D

Purchased Myself/PR Sample/Gifts

Hey everyone!
I hope you all are doing well! Happy Birthday to me! :D :D

Today has started out wonderfully! :D Last night (12/18) Chris surprised me with a Canon Rebel EOS T3i so my pictures are going to greatly improve when I can figure out HOW to use it and what lens I need to take good nail and eye shots. So woohoo! There are going to be some new pictures in this post. They aren't well, I should have taken them outside but I took them quickly. Enough excuses!

Nails;;

Cult Nails Miss Conduct* (all nails)
China Glaze Water You Waiting For (all nails but accent)
China Glaze Glitter Goblin (accent nail)
Nail Veil * (there were 3 stones in it but I had to take it off last night and I took 2 of the stones out. I totally couldn't get this one out though. LOL it's all good though. I still like it!)
Glisten & Glow HK Girl Top Coat**

I bought a pair of imPRESS nails at CVS that were on clearance and painted over them (I tend to do that honestly) that's why my nails actually look uniform. 

EYES
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Urban Decay;
Busted (crease)
Verve (Inner half of lid/Inner corner)
Half Baked (center of lid)
Rimmel MAX VolumeFlash Mascara

FACE:
TEMPTU AirPod Foundation - Sand
ELF Golden Bronzer
MUA Blusher - Shade 3
Senna Cosmetics Brow Fix X - Golden Brown X

I used the Revlon LipStain+Balm in Fiery, but this balm is a total fail for me. It's shows that it is going to be a lovely red, but it's in fact ORANGE. My lips are too pigmented for it apparently because it didn't show up AT ALL, nor did it give my lips any kind of tint. I just have on a lip balm.

So that is my makeup look and my nails for my Birthday! :D I know it's nothing exciting, but I'm happy with it! I have some pictures from when Chris and I went out to dinner. Yes, I took my camera. I've been wanting to get pictures of the food at this place for years and just never take my camera with me. Anypiddle. If you want to see that plus a review of the restaurant (if you're in the Area) let me know :)


Best wishes! xoxo
