How about a Kiss?

I have ordered a lot of TSS colours lately and I am trying to use them at least once before I put them into their colour catagory in my tool chest. I will probably be doing TSS looks at least a few times a week!

The most recent arrivals were from the Kiss of This and a Kiss of That collection. I think faith without words is from one of the astrology collections, but I'm not sure where one special star is from. I really love One Special Star. At frist I thought it was going to be really similar to BE Amythest but once I wet lined with it I could see some baby blue sparkles. It is really pretty!

I also just got my stuff from the BE preview. I only got the natural lip gloss set cherish and girlfriend kathleen. As it turns out I already had all of the lip glosses in the set except Birthday Cake. I am wearing Birthday Cake but I wanted to show you what it looks like in the tube--it's really pretty!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

I, of course, wanted to use green today. Lots of people are doing chartruse and emerald green looks--a combination which I love! So I decided to dosomething different and use green and a silvery blue-ish colour. This was also a great opportunity to use my NYX glitter liner. If you are in the market for a glitter liner the NYX liners (the ones with the tassels on the cap) are great. They go on really easily and I bet you could dab it on your lashes for some extra sparkle if you wanted to. They come in a bunch of colours and you can get them at Ulta.

EYES:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance (TFSI), 50/50 mix of well rested and clear radiance (wr/cr),

Angel Food Cake is 1:1 Nude Beach and Red Velvet Cake--Created by mislaurah
Bermuda is 1:1 Denim and Oz--Created by marcie9972
Dazzling is 1:1 Drama and Puzzle--Created by barbnowinva
Bloomin' Surprise is 1:1 Surprise and Bloom--Created by ornelaskm

Angel Food Cake and Bloomin Surprise

This is the look recommended for these colours on the tip card (above). I think that these colours would look better with other colours, but they look okay like this.

Bare Escentuals Face Fashion: Fab Fresh, Two Ways

I recently got the new Face Fashion kit. I mostly got it for the blush and lip gloss. The colours in this kit are silimar to other BE colours I have so I wouldn't say this is a must have.
Here are my subs for this kit:
Lilac Vibe = Jolie, Hugs, Embrace
Blushing Bronze = Long Island Iced Tea, Bali, Tan lines
Wild Jungle (This is the one colour I don't think there is a good match for in my BE collection--so the suggestions are not exact) = Grass, Lush Topaz, Mermaid (with some grey added in)

Azalea blush is a darker version of Cheerful (both are pretty and Azalea has some sparkle in it)

Version 1
EYES:
TFSI, wr/cr,
Lilac Vibe lash to brow,
Blushing bronze lash to crease and blended in the crease on the outer 3/4,
Wild Jungle lash to crease in outer 1/4 and wet lined on top,
mascara.

CHEEKS: Azalea Blush
LIPS: Straberry Shortcake gloss

Version 2

I like this kit much better this way. I think I would skip the blushing bronze on the lower lash line next time.

EYES:

TFSI, wr/cr,

Lilac Vibe lash to brow dry then foiled lash to crease,

Wild Jungle lash and into crease on outer 1/3ish,

Wild Jungle wet lined on top,
