Rockstar Love

I had originally thought about using Pinks, however, after applying Bordello, I was immediately drawn to Rockstar. This color is half the reason I caved and bought the palette!

Very QUICK BoS Vol. III Look

So, I did it... barely! When I woke up, I really didn't feel like putting on eyeshadow. I'm back on nights (11pm - 7:30am) and since I really don't see anyone until they start arriving in the morning, for months now, I haven't really put any effort into my makeup. However, I really wanted to come through for you guys, and went for a very neutral look. It was quick, easy and I'm fairy impressed with my choice(s).

One tip when using Urban Decay (or possibly any other brand) SUPER glittery shadows: dip your brush in, as you normally would, but make sure to tap it off VERY well. With a good brush (I use mostly MAC) the color will stay but the majority of the glitter will fall off. A bit of glitter is fine, but on your cheeks, it's not intended for!

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.

Face:
Clinique Pore Minimizer T-Zone Shine Control
NARS Primer with SPF
NARS Sheer Glow - Fiji
NARS Concealer Duo - Vanilla/Honey
NARS Pressed Powder - Flesh
MAC Blush - Dollymix
MAC MSF - Smooth Merge

Eyes:
Benefit Powderflage
Smashbox Brow Tech Trio - Brunette/Taupe
UDPP
MAC Paint Pot - Soft Ochre
UD Naked Palette Shadows:
- Darkhorse (Lid, Crease & Lower Lash Line)
- Creep (Lid)
- Naked (Brow Bone)
- Virgin (Inner Corner & Brow Highlight)
UD 24/7 Pencil - Zero (Upper Lash Line & Waterline)
MAC Opulash Mascara - Bad, Bad, Black

Lips:
MAC Lipstick - Angel
NARS Lipgloss - Turkish Delight

Urban Decay: Book of Shadows Vol. III

YIPPIE!!! It's here!!! But by a slim shot!

I was sitting at my computer, reading Google Reader, as I normally do when I get home from work, when I see someone else got theirs in the mail, today. CRAP! I FORGOT TO GET THE MAIL!!! I looked at the clock and saw it was 4:28! Our P.O. closes at 4:30! (I live in a tiny town without postal delivery, so we have a P.O. Box.) I quickly hopped in my car and drove the 4 blocks, ran in, opened my box and saw the slip for a package! The door to the main desk was closed, but I attempted to open it anyways. THANKFULLY the lady was still there and let me get my package. Usually she's not that nice... but that's another story.

This is so beautiful so grab one while you can! I really regret not getting the Alice in Wonderland one... maybe I'll be able to nab one on eBay for a decent price... someday. Someone out bid me by $1 for a fairly good priced one ($71 plus 10 shipping). I so would have won, but I was bidding on my slow BB as we were out shopping. :o(
