EOTN


The other night I decided to do some eye creations.  I got wild and came up with this.  I am not kidding, i have no idea what I used!  I do know that I don't have false lashes on, but they look quite nice, with my Falsies mascara!

EOTD- The Purples


For this eye, I used Kat Von D's True Love palette.  Literally everything that comes with the kit you can get... I used (the eye primer, the liner [which is sparkly and easy to smudge] and about four colors from the palette).  Incidentally, I don't see that kit any more, but you can get any of those items individually.

She's releasing some more palettes, which look delicious.  And they come with her eye pencils which are totally great.  When you go to Sephora next, swatch her line.  It's truly, one of my favorite out there.  Yes, I like Kat Von D, as a superstar.  Yes, I like that she's all tattooed up and I related to a tattooed woman.  Yes, she's terribly beautiful, but all that aside, I take my makeup seriously!  I like her line because it's tremendous!  Seriously.

Lisa Eldridge- Golden Smokey Eye



She has SO MANY wonderful videos.  The biggest perfection collection I've ever seen.  It's hard to pick one to post, but this one is the kind of look I would call a "daytime" look.  My daytime looks are not like most people's, so maybe that's why this is a good one to repost.

Sela


Did beautiful Sela's makeup for a wedding today.  Couldn't believe how it turned out.  She looked so nice.  I was so proud!  You simply can't see how lovely the colors looked, in this shot.  (If you click to enlarge, the colors are much more noticeable.)


Vixen


Not the easiest look to pull off, but Olivia Wilde does it in spades.  I will try this look, tomorrow and post a pic.  Hope I can pull it off, half as well!

EOTD


Navies and golds.  Much of it is the Victoria's Secret collection (Hello Bombshell!), which comes with incredibly beautiful, pigmented shadows with no names.  It's SUCH a lovely palette.  Excellent value as everything in it, is quality (there are also glosses and blushes/bronzers that I use every, single day).  

And, as usual, Wet N Wild liquid liner.  If you find black, buy two!  It's often sold out.

EOTD



Again... this eye was a little while ago, so all I know is, I used the Naked palette as well as my Ardells- Demi Black 110s (actually, that's what I normally wear, but I think these are longer ones).  I liked this eye... it was simple but pronounced.

Temptalia

I could go on for pages, about Temptalia and how incredible this blog is.  Instead, I'll simply post a link to these Makeup Forever pics, that they (she?) took at the Sephora store, in The Venetian in Vegas.  Don't be hungry when you look... you will salivate...



In All its Splendor

Found a beautiful blog...

In All its Splendor

It's created by a woman, named Soyoung.  She's an old friend, a designer, a mom, a wife and a lovely lady.  I'm excited by the things she finds to post!  We're coming up with a special EOTD, inspired by her.  For now, here's another from a few months ago...


I believe the entire eye is done with the Urban Decay Naked palette.  As soon as I start posting new eyes, I'll have a better product list!

EOTD


I liked the way this eye came out.  This was done a good, few months ago, but I do recall some things about it.  I did Milani, 03 Green in the crease, smudging it with some teal on top.  then the same Milani liner on bottom.  I do believe the light color on the lid, was simply my face powder (I use Wet N Wild in color 821A).  I also use Wet N Wild liquid liner.  Black is the best (opacity wise).

(Yay)

EOTD


This is an Eye Of The Day, from a couple of weeks ago.  I don't remember the products, but they're all, surely, easily dupe-a-ble.  I am pretty sure there is some brown/black in the crease, which might be helpful.  One thing I'm posi about, is my mascara being Mabelline The Falsies.  It's so good, for so many reasons!  My new fave.

OOTD- Monday


Jeans- Vanilla Star.  Got them at Ross for $20!  Cotton tank given to me by my neighbor and a black vest given to me by a neighbor.  The belt actually came with the jeans (similar to these).  Little, F21 rings (little stackers, like these, but silver).  And they're hard to see, but these awesome, porcupine quill earrings.  I love them.  They're delicate, but kind of look rock.  I can't seem to find out where I got them, easily, but this link is the exact pair.

That's it!  Oh, and I wore kitten heels with it.  Little, cute, brown ones.

Yay!

Peaches and Pixie



I went on a Peaches and Pixie tear, last night.  I didn't realize they're rock royalty.  I actually just thought they were regular royalty.  Due in large part to the names of the people in their family:

Trixibelle Geldof 
Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence Geldof

Lots of those royal families have crazy names with like seven middle names.  

Anyhow, I like these girls.  They're like... they're normally pretty but they have so much fun with their looks, they end up being extraordinary.  I also like them equally, when they're all scroungy.  That's why I've included some of those pics.





And I have to say... I NEVER feel like celebrities and I have similar faces, but there is something about the shape of Peaches' face that makes me fee like we kind of look alike.  On FB, when people are supposed to pick the well known face they look like, I'd prolly pick hers.

Soft Lips


Lisa Eldridge did this incredible makeup.  Easily the most talented makeup artist, I've ever come across.  I am going to do this look, for sure.  Lisa Eldridge... I have never been more mesmerized by a person making makeup art.  She does everything.  This woman seems like she was BORN for making-up.



I think this vid is one of the most amazing makeup tutorials I've ever seen.
