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...

Bright Makeup: Yellow, Pink, & Purple

I felt like playing around a bit last night, so I ended up with this at the end of playtime! Thought I'd share :) I normally pair this kind of look with bright pink lips, but I thought I'd try something a little more orange, just for fun, so there are two lip...

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.

Easy Makeup: Soft & Sweet for Spring

I wanted to wear Stylesetter, so I figured a softer eye would be best, because Stylesetter is pretty bright on its own. I don't know if I've done a combination with these kinds of colors before, but I was pleasantly surprised at how it turned out.

Makeup You Wanna Eat: Pinks & Purple

This look reminded me of cupcakes or maybe ice cream. Either way, I was like, "Mmm, I want some food!" (Preferrably something sweet, much to the dismay of my thighs...) For those who follow me on Twitter, *this* was the look I just wasn't lovin'. ...

Valentine's Day Makeup: Lady Gaga Lips & Purples

Here's a fun look using Viva Glam Gaga! :) I wanted to warm up the eyes a bit, so I opted for a mix of pinks and purples with gold eyeliner (which was where I drew a lot of the warmth from), to pair it with the cooler pink from the lipstick. Happy...
