A Birthday request

Today is my husband's birthday so I asked him what I should wear. He told me what he wanted it to look like and I picked the colours. I think it turned out pretty good.

I curled my lashes first then used mascara, and it doesn't really look like I curled my lashes at all. Maybe I didn't hold them long enough or something. I'll try again tomorrow.

50/50 mix well rested/clear radince all over,

Bare Escentuals: Big Smile

During the most recent sale the Get Happy kit was on sale for $14.50 and even though I now have 3 glee radiances, I just couldn't pass it up. I'm very glad I got the kit. Big Smile is a really pretty pink. When I saw it in the jar it remined me of Cherish but once I compared them side by side they are not that similar. Big Smile is a purple leaning pink and I think that is why I thought it looked like Cherish.

Some girls on BEA were talking about using just the brightening primer with the Gold Mineral veil over it instead of foundation so I decided to give it a try. I just have on the brightening primer, concealer and the GMV. I think it looks okay but I like my skin looks better with foundation.

EYES:

Primetime for eyes,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radaince all over,
Big Smile lash to brow,
Queen Marie in crease and outer 1/3ish,
Angel in middle of crease and lid,

Buxom Stay There Saint Bernard and Shih Tzu and an old dog

Before there were the Buxom Stay There pups Bare Escentuals did a kit with eye shadows named after dogs. It had Kiko (Leslie's dog), Dakota and two others that I can't remember. So I thought it would be fun to mix one of the old dogs with the new pups.

I used the crese brush from a set of Eco Tools brushes I just got. I also used the smudge brush to apply Energy in the outer corner. I like them so far but I'll have to use them for a while longer to really get a sense of how well they work.

EYES:

PTFE, wr/cr,
Gold Mineral Veil under brow,
Buxom Stay There in Saint Bernard lash to crease on outer 1/2,
Buxom Stay There in Shih Tzu lash to crease on inner 1/2,
Dakota in crease,
Energy blended into the outer corner and wet lined on top,
Flawless definition mascara with Flawless volumizing over it.

A Neutral Look

I don't wear browns that often so I thought I should post this look. This is a good look if you work in an office that perfers minimal makeup. I really like Happiness because even though it is brown it has a hint of purple in it.

EYES:
TFSI, wr/cr,
Heavenly diamond under brow,
Blissful Pearl lash to crease,
Happiness in crease and outer corner,
Kir Royal wet line don top,
mascara.
