How's your Wednesday treating you? By the time this post goes live, my butt will be taking a midterm! Can't wait for that to be over! :)

I wore this look out to lunch this past Sunday and used Urban Decay's Book of Shadows Vol. II Palette to do so. I was shooting for a subtle, yet colorful, look, so I...

Look: Peach & Smoky Purples for Autumn

Look: Peach & Smoky Purples for Autumn

Here's a quick look for fall that I put together to go out to dinner with my parents and boyfriend (for my birthday). It's pretty simple, and surprisingly, I used all permanent products (without trying--that's an accomplishment!). :) Hope your Wednesday is off to a fantastic start! Halfway...

Pucker Up: Peachy Pink Passion

I wanted to do something that wasn't a dark/bold lip, and I kind of went to a fall back... peach and pink. I started with a shimmery bronzy shade with peach undertones (MAC Honeymoon lipstick), which I then topped with a slightly orange gloss (MAC Nice to Be Nice...

Look - Red Lips with Chanel Dragon

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 ;)

MAC Style Black Look: Dark Smoky Eyes

Just a quick Style Black I through together this morning before I took a shower. I'm not sold on mineralize eyeshadows whatsoever! I applied these mineralize eyeshadows wet using water-based mixing medium (for better adhesion and to minimize fall out). ...

Pucker Up: Glitzy Midnight Media

Again, applying MAC's Midnight Media Mattene does yield better results when used with a lip brush than straight outta the tube. (To reiterate:  it's important to know that distinction--you want to know just how much...

Look: Stila All Doll'd Up Palette - Pink & Purple Eyes

Here's another look using the from Stila! :) I also tried to fit in some purply-lips, too. I probably wouldn't re-use the lip combination with this look -- there's just not enough of the eggplant-y purple showing through to tie them together. I'd most likely go for a lighter, paler pinky lip with...
