Hello hello! I hope you all are doing well! I wanted to start a thing where I showcase an eyeshadow palette like once a week, where I only use that palette on my eyes? Something like that. We shall see how it goes!

FOTD 16 Bold Eye Liner!
Hullu!
I hope you all are doing well!
This is the eye look that I wore yesterday (May 17th). I wanted to do something simple, but use a "bold" eyeliner.
I'm a little frazzled on how this turned out. One moment everything was okay and the next minute there was bumps, lumps and smudges! Seriously. it's my luck! When I started taking pictures everything looked good, then by the end of it, it went downhill. Pft.
It's all good though. it's not crazy noticeable unless you are in my face.
Blurry, but you kind of get the point of the look right?
I wanted the blue eyeliner to be the main focus of my eyes, I didn't make it crazy because it's pretty bold itself. I've had this eyeliner a long time but never tried it because I was too afraid it would compete with my blue eyes, but I quite like it! :D Whoopie!

EYES:
Milani Eye shadow Primer
Urban Decay Naked Palette:
Naked (lid)
Creep (outer corner/crease)
A mixture of Buck, Smog, Darkhorse & Hustle smudged along the bottom lash line.
Myface Cosmetics SLINKY Metal Liquid Liner - Bell bottom Blues
Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner - Radium (tightliner)
I used the Maybelline Shine Free Pressed Powder in Soft Cameo and dusted it all over my face.
I'm testing this but so far am not impressed.
Have you tried a bold eyeliner before?!

Hello Buttercups!
I hope you all are doing well!
Today's look was a relatively quick one! All I was doing today was bathing the dogs, cleaning the bathroom, and doing a few other bits and bobs outside.
As you can tell this was a pretty neutral eye look, I didn't want anything too crazy or bright.

100 FOTD Challenge! #1
Hello everyone!
In 2011 I saw Sirvinya do this challenge and I wanted to do it then, but just wound up deciding against it. She finished her 100 days in September 2012 after starting them October 2011.
The name of the game is to do 100 Face Of The Day's in 1 year.
The rules are you have to use everything from your makeup stash at least ONCE. No wearing your same look EVERYDAY and counting it as a FOTD. My makeup stash isn't as big as it used to be, but I've been in such a rut and only ever use my Naked Palettes anymore, so I am taking on this challenge. I want to give everything in my stash a fair chance, and secretly I miss using fun colors! I just can't bring myself to switching it up!

French Mermaid NOTD
Hello everyone!
The inspiration of today's nails were that I wanted to use 2 nail polishes from companies I've never tried before. Yesterday (Saturday) was the Central Florida Beauty Bloggers Meetup and there was a swap and I picked up a few nail polishes. I got a couple of brands that I've never tried before and have been lemming over! I've got fake nails on because mine are misshapen and growing back out and my nails just look hideous! Bah.
Anyways, I KNEW I wanted to try the Bettina nail polish that I had gotten from Cristina (Let Them Have Polish) I had never heard of Bettina before, so I knew I wanted to at least try and get one polish. I had 2 in my hand, but I decided to put the other one back. The second polish is from Julep. I've been wanting to try Julep before but I can't justify a $14 polish at this moment, and I've not signed up for their subscription box. I've almost done it a dozen or so times, but at the checkout I ALWAYS wind up just cancelling it.
I'm so grateful to the ladies who brought them because I couldn't be happier with these two polishes! Thank you so much!! :D (I'm not sure who brought the Julep one honestly :( there was no name on the box)
I don't know why, but Piper and Jingle Belle together reminded me of mermaids.
Jingle Belle is absolutely PERFECT. I'm in complete love with it and kicking myself in the booty for not getting the other one (it was purple)! This polish has so much depth that it's not funny. I wish my camera would have picked it up! Gah its 100x more gorgeous in person! And the formulas! Gah! Don't even get me started on them! Bloody perfect! I did not have one problem with the formula's of either of these! Oh! The couple of bubbles on the nails were from my top coat, not the polishes!
Piper is a sheet color so it took about 4 coats to build it up to color which is okay. I still love it! Jingle Belle is 3 coats. It's a fantastic everyday manicure in my opinion that has a nice pop of color.
I am so happy with these nail polishes that it's not even funny. I keep starring at the bottles because they are so gorgeous! Oh! Sorry about the cuticles, especially the split one. For some ungodly reason, while we were sitting at the meetup, my cuticle split. :( I spent a majority of the time rubbing it because it hurt and.. well I'm not sure why I rubbed it, but it helped it stop hurting! Bah. I need to bust out my heavy duty moisturizer!
I hope you all are doing well! I want to give a HUGE thank you to everyone who was at the meetup. I was psyching myself out for no reason, which is why I was terrified. In general meeting new people kind of scares me because it's out of my comfort zone, especially when it's in a larger crowd. It was SO relaxing though! I enjoyed meeting all of you! I promise I'm not normally that timid. Now that I have met you all, I'll be fine! It's just the first time that gets me! Thank you for such a great day and for being so welcoming!
Hey everyone. I just made a facebook page. I'm going to give it another shot. So CLICK HURR and another page will open :)

I didn't use a base coat because I have a pair of imPRESS nails on.
The neutral color is Bettina Jingle Belle.
The blue is Julep's Piper.
