A Teal Look

Sorry it has been a while since I've posted any looks. I have been busy with the end of the semester and trying to get everything ready for the baby.

I am hoping to get the Tarte Smoldereyes set from Sephora tomorrow and the Year of Beauty set from Bare Escentuals in the next few days. So hopefully I will be able to post some looks with both of those sets this week.

Today I decided to do a nice bright look with Buxom Stay There in Saint Bernard. In doing this look I discoverd that Max Volume (the teal from the Playlist) actually looks dark teal over saint bernard--so that was awesome.

EYES:

PTFE Brightening Pearl,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radiance all over,
Buxom Stay There Saint Bernard lash into crease,
Max Volume (R) in crease and outer corner and along lower lash line,
One Hit Wonder (R) under brow and inner corner,
Big and Bright liner in Midnight Moon upper lash line,
Falsies winged mascara.


CHEEKS: Pink Petal Blush
LIPS: Bavarian Creme lipstick

Purples: Skinny Dip, Magnificent Pearl, Merlot

Skinny Dip is an old favorite but I haven't worn it in a while so I decided to do a look around it. Magnificent pearl was on my mind beacuse it is one of the free gift eye shadows that BE.com is giving away with any $60 order. Merolt is a colour I thought I didn't like but I think I like it in this combo. I put mascara on my lower lashes today, which I don't noramlly do, I'm not sure if I like it.

EYES:

PTFE Brightening Opal,

Skinny Dip dry lash to brow,

Skinny Dip foiled lash to crease,

Magnificent pearl lash into crease on outer 1/3ish,

Merlot in T and blended into magnificent pearl,

Buxom 5" Stiletto lined on top,

Buxom mascara top and bottom.

CHEEKS: Pink Ribbon

LIPS: Bavarian creme lipstick with Birthday cake gloss over it.

Good Morning Gorgeous: Saturday and Sunday

Honestly I thought I would like Sunday the least out of this set but it is actually a really interesting colour. It is matte and a kind of nudish pink brown. Because it has so much pink in it it looks good with purples. I thought it would be hard to get it to show up but it really wasn't.

EYES:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radince all over,
Saturday under brow,
Sunday lash to crease,
Lucky Penny in crease and outer 1/3,
Deep Amythest wet lined on top, Lucky Penny dry on bottom,
Black Tea mascara.
CHEEKS: Smitten

Black Lab and Blue Moon

I've been wanting to wear blue moon for a while.

EYES:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radince all over,
Buxom Stay there in Black Lab lash into and above crease on outer 2/3,
Blue Moon lash to crease on inner 1/2,
Neptune under brow,
Caviar wet lined on top and dry on bottom,
Sephora Lash Plumper mascara.


CHEEKS: Miracle blush
LIPS: Bavarian Creme

Playing with Blue and Green

I thought I would use blues and greens today. I used two of each but I think this look ends up looking more blue than green. Refresh goes on almost white, and foiled it just looks light and bright.

EYES:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radince all over,
Refresh dry under brow,
Refresh foiled lash to crease,
Azure in crease and center of lid (in T),
Peacock in V and outer 1/3ish,
Lagoon lightly in v to darken,
Lagoon dry lined on top, peacock dry lined on bottom,
Tarte mascara.


CHEEKS: Avant-Garden blush

I'm not sure this look is very original but it does have the festive disco ball feel required of a new year's eve look.

EYES:

PTFE, wr/cr,
Moonstruck under brow,
Buxom Stay There Chihuahua lash to crease,

High Shine frost dabbed onto the tips of my lashes.
