Colorful Makeup Look


This is the makeup I came up with for StillGLAMORUS's YouTube contest. It was supposed to be colorful w/ the option of doing a design in the eye/lip area only... I was inspired by this little sketch that I came up with. The little inversely shaded circle design ended up reminding me of bullet holes or something, haha. This look ended up taking a long time, a few hours... I was getting impatient, especially since I had to show the steps I did. I don't know how some of you YouTube gurus do it! Hah.


Most of the eye colors used were from my WALES palette except for the orange which was NYX Golden OrangeI also used Mary Kay eye primer, MAC Blacktrack fluidline, Rimmel London blue eye kohl, MAC Hello Kitty Tippy blush on my cheeks and Salon Perfect 45 Black lashes.

Valentine's Day Makeup & Nails







This is the "sultry" look I did for Tknokitten's Valentine's Day contest on YouTube. I used neutral colors & glitter on the eyes and a little pink on the cheeks & lips. This actually reminds me a lot of a look I did inspired by my dog, Coco, a while ago.















Products used:


Eyes:

Mary Kay (MK) e/s primer
L'Oreal wear infinite e/s '825 Gilded Bronze'
MK e/s 'Golden'
NYX e/s 'E509 Deep Bronze'
Lash Grip adhesive
Emani Minerals glitter '815 Fever'
Mac Blacktrack f/l
Salon Perfect false lashes #45
MK waterproof mascara
NYX jumbo e/s pencil 'Milk'

Cheeks:

Colorworks blush 'Bronze'
Mac Hello Kitty blush 'Tippy'

Lips:

NYX l/l 'Barbie Pink'
Sephora lip gloss 'Precious Pink'





These were my nails. For the lips, I followed JulieG's tutorial on YouTube. I had been wanting a non-shimmer baby pink nail color and bought this Wet n Wild one at Rite Aid for .99. It's so pretty but chips really easily, but then again, I didn't expect amazing quality for something less than a dollar.





WetnWild Wild Shine '451C flirty rose creme'
L.A. Colors Art Deco glittery red

Lush haul 12/09-1/10












I've gone crazy with bath products, especially Lush, in the last month, especially with the B1G2F soap sale that they had this month. Yesterday I recieved my two retro items that I ordered through phone-Banana Moon Soap & Sonic Death Monkey shower gel. The shipping was pretty expensive since it shipped here (California) from Canada...They also sent me two small samples of Herbalism cleanser & The Blonde solid shampoo (My hair isn't blonde though). I'm in love with Snow Fairy, I don't know what to compare its scent to, but I lovelovelove it.


These are the products my mom, sister, and I got:


-Chox away soap

-Noubar soap

-Snow cake soap (Holiday limited edition)

-I shouldCoco soap

-Honey I washed the Kids soap

-Angel's delight soap

-Banana Moon soap (retro)

-Snow fairy shower gel (Holiday limited edition)

-Sonic Death Monkey shower gel (retro)

-Vanilla body dust

-Coconut deodorant powder




I haven't used the Sonic Death Monkey yet, but I was kind of dissapointed that it's very strong on the coffee/hemp smell, I was hoping the chocolate would be stronger but we'll see. I also want to try 13 Rabbits, hopefully that will be more chocolatey.



Banana Moon smells a little like those Banana Head candies that used to be in candy machines.






I also got the Philosophy Pumpkin Spice shower gel for Christmas, which I am in love with also.


Let me know if you guys have any questions about any of these products :)
