How's everyone doing today?  What have you...

Look - Soft Neutrals for Thanksgiving

I did this look for Thanksgiving -- something natural and simple, but still noticeable :) I did my makeup today for the first time since Thanksgiving, and it was horrible and felt SO, SO very unnatural.  I was like, "Wow!  Talk about rusty!"  By the by, I used Too Faced's Shadow Insurance for the...

Look - All Matte Neutrals

Look - All Matte Neutrals

I try to get some all-matte looks in from time to time, because it's basically "out of the box" for me. I gotta tell you, while I don't have anything against mattes, I just don't do them often because I don't have a lot of mattes! But after doing this look, it made me so sad to see all those...

Today's hair is brought to you by FHI Heat's 1 1/4" Curling Iron (review will come later). I really do need to practice sooo much more with a curling iron. I just get the crimped look with it! Not that I don't like how it turned out, it's just not what I was aiming for, LOL. I also just got...

It's been a tiring weekend! I hope everybody did something fun/relaxing/exciting this weekend :) Are you ready to start the week? I'm sooo not. This is from yesterday, and I tried to "style" my hair, which did not work out so well, LOL. Oh, well, practice, practice, practice!

After yesterday's experimentation, this is my actual look for the day. Sometimes it's fun just to have, well, fun with makeup - to be able to try out things and combinations that are gloriously over the top. Obviously, this is pre-hair cut!
