Since I’m testing the waters with vibrant eye color, I dabbled in drugstore purples (Wet ‘n Wild Vibrant Violet palette). For what it is, the look was fine. I can’t go too crazy as a teacher, though. So, it fit my need just fine. As i get more confident using the color, I’ll move up the chain of HE makeup.

My last look’s inspiration?: i went with a look that I was inspired to do after seeing Sephora’s “High Voltage” spring theme.

How often do I wear makeup?: 6 days a week with a full face due to work and 1 day toned down for hanging around casually.

Where do i keep my stash?: In a train case & then in multiple little make-up bags under the bathroom sink. i could probably use 2 train cases at this point for everything.

I loved this look! When I saw it, I saved a pic of it to my lookbook so I can keep track of everything I want to try. Good choice for inspiration! :))I

My last makeup look inspiration was… SPRING! I did soft greens and purples.

During the week, I wear makeup every day. It’s part of my morning ritual. I do give my skin a break on Sundays though, which is also my brush cleaning day.

I keep my stash in one tiny bathroom drawer in the vanity – with room to spare! All my brushes and liners/mascara are on top of the vanity though. But everything else fits in my little drawer and I plan to keep it that way. =)

I did a base of Cakeshop with Paradisco on the inner half of the lid, Stars and Rockets on the outer half, and Nocturnelle in the crease. Lemon Chiffon as a highlight under the brow and a bit of Shroom to help blend it all together. Finished it off with Lollipop Loving on the lips and a bit of Refined MSF on the cheeks. I think I’m falling in love with mineralize items!

1) I just bought Pearl CCB and it’s been blowing my mind how vibrant shadows look layered over it. I cant believe I waited so long to purchase it. Today I wore Electric EEl over Pearl CCB on my lid. Texture in the crease, and for the highlight I put Femme-Fi over Pearl CCB on my brow bone. 2) I love makeup! I like being creative and trying different things out so I wont go a day without it! 3) I keep my stash for now in separate plastic pencil boxes. Really not a great way to store your stash.
