Teal Eyes Tutorial


Hey guys! Long time, no see! I've been SUPER busy with work, still am, but I enjoy doing tutorials so much, that I decided I'd sit down and film one. I have a particular Harley-Davidson shirt that I love wearing, this time with black capri's, and I just love the colors in it. I've used one of MAC's pigment stacks before (Surf the Ocean), which looks great with it, but sometimes that takes a bit of working with. 

In the video I said Aqua was Permanent at PRO, however it looks to have been discontinued since I bought mine. :-( At this time, it is still available in a pot with the Fashion Flower embossing, so pick it up if you like it!

Please let me know how you like this "style" of video, the distance, the angle, the single eye application, etc.

Smoky Naked

Yippie, I succeeded in using my Urban Decay Naked Palette all week AND taking pictures! Lets hope I can do the same for my Book of Shadows III, next week! Today you get a FULL Face of the Day, and not just eyes. I wore different foundations this week to see what looked best/lasted, and while I can't pick a clear winner (yet), I do love my NARS Sheer Glow. :-D This is actually the first day this week I wore any lip color. I generally drink water all day long (out of a bottle) so I find it kind of pointless to wear lipstick.

3.25.09 - MUFE #92

I picked this up with Smoky Lash Mascara and some Clinique Scruffing Lotion 3.5 for the hubby, to get the Philosophy Miracle Workers trial kit and free shipping from Sephora.

I haven't used the Philosophy, because I stopped at the Clinique counter, to see what they suggested for my splotchy cheeks and clogged up pores on my chin. She said the pores weren't bad enough to need a "pore minimizer" but she suggested I use the Redness Solutions Cleanser & Cream for 2 weeks and see how my cheeks were. That was Saturday and I've used it every morning & night since then and I LOVE IT!!! I've been wearing just a tinted moisturizer (tiral) and some powder and picked up some full size for the summer. And my chin even looks cleared!

Today I tried Maybelline's Dream Matte Mousse Liquid Foundation & Powder and I actually picked the right match! (Light 2) It goes on beautifully and covers my problems (which since the Clinique, my cheeks aren't as bad but it covered my acne scars well, too). I used a damp wedge sponge to apply it... I really want to pick up the BeautyBlender, but the Duo w/ Cleanser is sold out on Sephora, and it's the best deal, so I will wait.

Tonight I did a quick look with the MUFE #92 and my Stila Red Carpet Look Palette, which I LOVE.
