Looks - Cult of Cherry Chartreuse and Brown

Looks - Cult of Cherry Chartreuse and Brown

I meant to do this look yesterday, but I got a bunch of bad news, so I just knew the makeup thing was sooo not happening. It has to do with Mellan, and if you're interested, you'll find the story after the look :)

You will need the following...

  • Eyes: True Chartreuse pigment (chartreuse base), Sharp...

Looks - Neutral with Subtle Green

Looks - Neutral with Subtle Green

I wanted to do some color, but since I was going to hang out with my relatives, I didn't want to go full-out with the color. I thought a more neutral lid with color in the crease would give me the best of both worlds!

Happy Friday! Weekend's almost here :) Any exciting plans?

You will need the...

Looks - Soft White Gold With a Touch of Green & Gray

Here's my first Starflash/Lustre Twins look! :) I'm hoping to kick a few more out over the next few days. It's been a pretty rough week over at Temptalia HQ, which is my excuse for lack of looks (that and I really wanted to play with Starflash, and I didn't have it yet!). Jury duty this week...

Looks - Pop of Bright Green with Olive Greens

Looks - Pop of Bright Green with Olive Greens

So, yesterday, I thought my shirt was green (apparently, it was brown, but it kept flickering between brown/dark green depending on the light), so I went with green. At least brown goes with most colors, though :) I didn't notice the mascara smudges on the lower lash line until after photos, but I...

Looks - Colour Forms Gilded Green Rocks

Looks - Colour Forms Gilded Green Rocks

You know that feeling you get when you do a look, and you just LOVE it? I totally had that yesterday. Admittedly, I haven't really loved, loved, loved anything I have done in awhile. Gilded Green is a pretty unique pigment, because I couldn't think of a great permanent dupe for it. Makes me...

Looks - Bright Greens and Teals, Over the Top

Looks - Bright Greens and Teals, Over the Top

Just had some fun playing around with the mineralize duos and went for something more over the top than anything else ;) I wanted to see how the green would play over a very green base. I also picked up two new duos and two new blushes to play with, which I'll share with you later today or tomorrow...

Looks - Fresh Green Mix with Dainty Is Lovely

Looks - Fresh Green Mix with Dainty Is Lovely

I tried out Fresh Green Mix yesterday over Cash Flow paint pot - interesting combo. I think I will try the same duo today, but over a green base instead. I LOVE Dainty - anyone who thinks it isn't pigmented enough for deeper skintones is nuts. Totally popped on my cheeks (I'm NC30) with EASE. I used...

Looks - Dior's Earth Tones Gets Earthy Indeed (AKA MUDDY!)

Looks - Dior's Earth Tones Gets Earthy Indeed (AKA MUDDY!)

You know, this combo got quite muddy, so I wouldn't really say this worked out well. It took a LOT of work to get it to be "presentable," you know? It was like, as soon as you put the colors on, it was mud-central. Really weird experience for me (I don't think I have ever had anything turn muddy on...

Looks - Antique Green & Teals That Aren't Over the Top

Looks - Antique Green & Teals That Aren't Over the Top

As you can tell, I'm trying to put together some looks using the pigments that will come out in Overrich! Today, I tried to kill two birds with one stone ;) I think I like this look, though I feel like it's actually subtler than I originally envisioned it would be (which is probably a good...

Looks - Green, Purple, and Pink -- Really, who knew?

Looks - Green, Purple, and Pink -- Really, who knew?

Mellan update: yesterday, he spent the day at the vet so they could monitor him and take chest x-rays. When we picked him up yesterday afternoon, the vet showed us the x-rays, and he said that he didn't see anything that stood out to him as abnormal. Today, our vet spoke with some specialists, aand...
