This is a quick & dirty look--seriously, like ten minutes or less--using Chanel's spring collection. I love the lips more than the eyes, but what else is new? I think next time I use this quad, I'm going to try a shimmery gold base. Hmm.
Happy Monday!! (Yes, I'm sick and twisted... Mondays are...
This is almost like a two-for-one kind of look, because I took photos of two [drastically] different lip combinations -- the first is a deeper plummy red and the second more of a bronzy nude. I wanted to try out some of the products I've reviewed lately, so that's where I tried to draw inspiration...
So here's a tip about using all matte eyeshadows (or matte products in general): make sure you're exfoliated and well-moisturized. My eyelids were a touch dry on the inner lid, and the mattes really enhanced that dryness. The same thing is true if you have drier skin and opt for a matte finish...
This was a very quick, ten-minute look I created using MAC's Devil May Dare Eyeshadow Palette, which was one of their holiday palettes.

I really wanted to use Bobbi Brown's Pewter Chrome Eyeshadow, and I figured I might as well incorporate her Earth Metal Palette, too... so, I did! Let me tell you one thing about pewter-colored eyeshadow: it can be difficult figuring out how to pair cheeks and lips with it!

I did this look last night before we went out for my (early) birthday dinner at my favorite restaurant! I knew I wanted to take Chanel's Dragon out for a night on the town, so it was all about the lips for this look ;)
I hope your Saturday has been wonderful so far! I'm feeling a bit under the...
This is my incredibly easy and super fast natural/neutral eye. No matter what the occasion is, this eye is always appropriate, which makes it really useful to have in my back pocket. (Particularly useful on days when I can't come up with anything else!)

I did this look yesterday :) Just trying to use Bright Future from Style Warrior & make it work for me! It's better than the last round, but in truth, it doesn't top Going Bananas or Bright Sunshine -- I'd prefer both of those over Bright Future. I find Chrome Yellow to be hard to wear, because...
This was a really quick Style Warrior look I put together the other day. I don't think Night Manoeuvers is a very flattering color on me -- at least in this pairing! I think I could wear it in a more gray/purple kind of look. I was attempting to only use Style Warrior products, so, there ya have...
Easy & quick neutral eye :) This is the "I want to try out a bunch of new products" look -- I tried out Guerlain's Bleu Cruise mascara, Benefit Posietint, and Benefit 10! Yay!
HAPPY FRIDAY! We made it to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans coming up! I'll be spending my Friday afternoon...
