I was watching Lady Gaga's Bad Romance Music Video yesterday, and I felt a little inspired by the bold makeup she's wearing around the four minute mark. At first, I thought she was wearing this look while dancing a bit, but I think the looks are different--the one she wears while dancing (also around...
I wanted to try and do a look that used some of MAC's new holiday palettes, and of course, I really wanted to use Hold My Gaze from the Sorceress palette. As much as I like Hold My Gaze, I don't really love it with the other shades in the palette, so I decided to use it alongside the Mystic Cool...
I really wanted to use Bobbi Brown's Pewter Chrome Eyeshadow, and I figured I might as well incorporate her Earth Metal Palette, too... so, I did! Let me tell you one thing about pewter-colored eyeshadow: it can be difficult figuring out how to pair cheeks and lips with it!

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...
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...

Here's an attempt at using MAC's Photorealism eyeshadow quad :) The photos are a little wonky, because silly me forgot to change the white balance settings before taking these photos, SO I had to muck around with them (to get the right color) in Photoshop. I think they're *fairly* accurate, but...
Easy-peasy smoky eye :) I consider this the "traditional" smoky eye, since I've always thought of a smoky eye as silver/gray. Video tutorial for this coming soon, too!

This is the look I wore to the Benefit breakfast yesterday :) (This is, obviously, before Benefit made me over!) I didn't think something this simple would turn out this lovely!

Quick and dirty smoky eye :) So, I finally get my foundation to match my skin in *natural* light... but then either the foundation or my setting powder reflects light and it doesn't match in photos! Apparently, my bathroom light is terrible, because so many foundations looked like they were a match,...
