Hmm, I was trying to do a combo I haven't done before. It came out... interesting! :) I think it's one of those looks-better-in-real-life kind of looks.

How's your Tuesday going? I'm excited--my Nubar order arrived this afternoon, so I can't wait to go play with...

MAC To the Beach Look: Humid, Shimmermoss, and "Sweet & Punchy"

If you've been collecting MAC for years, you and I both know that we own near-dupes of coming attractions, no matter how pretty the newest, shiniest thing may look. Since MAC To the Beach is out in the UK already, I thought I'd try a...

Bright Makeup: Sky Blues

I got the BLUES! At least, when it comes to the next week... because it's study, study, STUDY! I feel like my focus is off, too, which is very annoying and frustrating. I managed to get through one outline yesterday, and today, I hope to get through another today... and...

Softly Smoky: Drama, but Not Too Much

Quickie look I did before I took my midterm to test out the wear of some new products I'm trying out! :) I will say I refuse to use Urban Decay's Maui Wowie eyeshadow again. I'm through with it! It is fallout city, and even when I use it with a sticky base,...

Softer Makeup:  Going Coral -- Once More, With Feeling!

Just a quickie look here... something neutral so I could do some lip swatches! Ironically, this combination of eyeshadows recreates the look I did last week in a way--it's subtler, softer, but the strength of Coral Crepe really seems to keep...

Pret-a-Papier Look: Coral Crepe as a Base

I wore this look to photograph lip swatches from Pret-a-Papier yesterday, but here it is in detail :)  By the by, I prefer the lighter Chromagraphic Pencil on my waterline -- the darker one is a bit too subdued and runs a little yellowish on me.
