Summer Makeup: Molten Lava Goes To the Beach, v. 2

Summer Makeup: Molten Lava Goes To the Beach, v. 2

Summer Makeup: Molten Lava Goes To the Beach, v. 2

I had a few tutorial requests for a coppery look I did last week, so I decided to modify it a bit so it used only permanent products on the eyes rather than limited edition ones.  This is the modified version, and the tutorial should be up on...

Spring to Summer Makeup: Pretty in Purple

Spring to Summer Makeup: Pretty in Purple

Spring to Summer Makeup: Pretty in Purple

I ended up layering two eyeshadows in this look, because I felt like Da Bling was really just too pink/dark for the look -- I put Digit on top of it to lighten it, and I liked it, but I think you could omit Da Bling and just use Digit instead.  I also had to...

Sultry Sunset: All About Funbathing!

I was completely determined to use Funbathing lipstick, since it's the only To the Beach lipstick I hadn't yet used in an actual look. I already had a good idea of what I wanted to do -- kind of a smoky berry/burgundy eye -- and this is kind of ended up. I...

Summer Makeup: Go Blue or Go Home!

Thank goodness it's Friday! :)  I am a big fan of blue eyeshadow, and I really do think everyone should try a totally, full-on blue (I totally wanted to say Bang On Blue!) look at least once in their lifetime, even if they never wear it outside of the house.

I will...

Summer Makeup: Molten Lava Goes To the Beach

Happy Thursday, everyone! :) I hope everyone's been having a fantastic week -- almost to the weekend (a long one, if you're in the U.S., too!).  I totally went to my comfort zone with this look -- metallic, bronzy, coppery shades.  I can't remember if...

Mix & Match with Urban Decay & MAC

Here's a look I did test-driving NARS' new eyeshadow base (got a sample of it with a recent Sephora order) and new Urban Decay eyeshadows.  Plus, even though I still don't feel like Lazy Day is a must-have (and I really thought it was going to be higher on the sell out...

Five Minute Looks: Green & Greener

I was in a rush yesterday, but I wanted to play with some new makeup--I was desperate to do a look with YSL's Slate Green. The nearest to it was MAC's Sweet & Punchy and my new Make Up Forever Aqua Creams... and thus, this look was created! Lashes are a lil'...

Korres Look: Greens & Coral

Korres Look: Green & Coral for Spring

I did this look using some of Korres' highlighted products for summer -- #42 Eyeshadow (a beautiful summery green) and #45 Coral Lipstick (a moisturizing orange-coral with a glossy sheen). I also used several other Korres products to bring it all together, but...

MAC To the Beach Look: Gold & Green

I had ten minutes to do my makeup from start to finish, and this is what I ended up with! I'm pretty satisfied with the results -- I went with a combo that I'm sure I've done before, but I used some of the newer MAC To the Beach shades.  As suspected, though, Get-Away...

MAC To the Beach Look: Clarins + Neon Orange

This is the look I ended up wearing to attend my local MAC's To the Beach event.  I had originally planned to do something bolder and brighter on the eyes, but I ran out of time, so I just went with the look I started the day with!

I'm happy to say I...
