Looks - Warm Eyes Palette for Smoky Greens

Looks - Warm Eyes Palette for Smoky Greens

As promised, here's a look using the holiday '08 warm eyes palette :) For those wondering, I really do not think Femme Noir looks anything like Grand Entrance. Femme Noir is almost a black-green on me, but it's an olive, muted green. Grand Entrance is a rich forest green.

You will need the...

Look - Urban Decay Book of Shadows Olive Greens

Look - Urban Decay Book of Shadows Olive Greens

I feel like I haven't done a really green look in forever! Of course, forever just might translate to a month or two, but that's too long, right? ;)

By the way, did you know the blog celebrated its two-year birthday on October 3rd? Yep! The first post on Temptalia went up on October 3rd, 2006.

Happy...

Look - Dior Twilight Quint for Sultry Blue Smoky Eyes

Look - Dior Twilight Quint for Sultry Blue Smoky Eyes

GRR!! I really, really LOVED this look and how it turned out, and of course - I didn't do close-ups in front of a mirror, so they didn't turn out as well as they normally did. I included more full-face shots as a compromise, since I just uploaded them this morning (aka, the makeup was removed!). ...

Look - Smokey Browns & Blue Liner for the Weekend

It's been a tiring weekend! I hope everybody did something fun/relaxing/exciting this weekend :) Are you ready to start the week? I'm sooo not. This is from yesterday, and I tried to "style" my hair, which did not work out so well, LOL. Oh, well, practice, practice, practice!

Looks - Pop of Bright Green with Olive Greens

Looks - Pop of Bright Green with Olive Greens

So, yesterday, I thought my shirt was green (apparently, it was brown, but it kept flickering between brown/dark green depending on the light), so I went with green. At least brown goes with most colors, though :) I didn't notice the mascara smudges on the lower lash line until after photos, but I...

Looks - Super Black Smoky Hot Contrast Eye

Looks - Super Black Smoky Hot Contrast Eye

I did this two days ago, because I really just wanted to see how black I could get Hot Contrast to be. I wasn't disappointed per se, but it definitely didn't get as black as I envisioned (even when used wet). I tried my super black smoky eye I do from time to time, so the look follows that (so it's...

Looks - Super Smoky Black, Green, and Gold Eye

Looks - Super Smoky Black, Green, and Gold Eye

I don't think I've done three days of makeup in quite awhile! For some reason, the upper "liner" is 1) not very prominent, 2) looks separated from my lash line even though when I applied, it looked fine. Don't you hate when you're all good to go, then you upload photos, and you're like, "Oh, oops!"...

Looks - Deeper Smoky Eye for Evening Out

Looks - Deeper Smoky Eye for Evening Out

This is part of a tutorial that is "coming soon," about how to go from daytime look to darker daytime look to subtle evening look to dramatic evening look. Yesterday, I posted the subtle evening look. The difference? I added Silver Ring eyeshadow to the middle lid with Vex all over the inner lid.

I...
