...ramblings...

I did a holiday look a few days ago... Here it is... I'm having trouble editing.publishing the tut so that might be awhile... edited for you looking pleasure

ugh... yes I know it's been so long... I've been away for a while, mostly because I've been working a lot, and secondly my camera was on life support... But luckily, I was blessed enough to have a little bit of extra funds in my check to buy a new one... So yea, yesterday was Halloween... I went as a Rockstar/Rihanna (if you ask my father...) but mostly just a rockstar... Here are pics... I used my Mehron Pastel Palette for the pink section of my face, covered that with Ben Nye's Azalea, outlined it with my Milani Blackened Teal Double Ended liner. For the eyes I used Ben Nye's Ice (lid), Amethyst,(crease) Cosmic Blue (crease), Iced Gold (highlight) and Urban Decay's Perversion (cut crease). Cheeks are BN Azalea (right), and BN Cosmic Blue & Amethyst (left) My lips were outlined in black and then filled in with Maybelline's Wine and roses...  but then I ate... and the lips were gone... meh.. obligatory edited pic...

Yeah It's a little late in the day but whatever! Happy Valentine's Day!

I just came up with this look for those who aren't quite "in love".... It works for those who are though...lol! It's a little pinkier in person... and one in natural light... Eyes UDPP Revlon Eye Smoker in Noir (smudged on lid) Sally Girl Eyeshadow Single in Onyx (lid) Signature Minerals Pigment in Desert Sun (crease) Ben Nye Shadow in Azalea (crease) Concealer (highlight) Revlon Diamond Lust in Grab Me Gold (highlight) Face Random Face Products Lips Victoria Secret Lip Gloss Balm in Sexy Bomb CoverGirl WetSlicks in Pink Sequins And I did a tut for this...

As most of you know... I do makeup tutorials on my YouTube channel... So, Valentine's Day is swiftly approaching and I wanted to create a look that I would wear on Valentines... Contrary to my usual overly colorful approach... I decided to go a little more classic for my V-Day look.... So here it is.... Just a very neutral... yet enticing ... matte brown eye.... with juicy red lips... it's verging on pin-up... well almost ... and a shopped one.... for fun... Oh, and check out my friends blog... Click! He's all smart and informative and whatnot.... He touches on a plethora of topics, so you will always be surprised...

2008 is on it's way out! Excited Much? Anyway...This is a look similar to the look I would do if I were going someplace nice for New Years... I probably would just go more smokey with it.... Ehh, Whatever! Here We Go! And the pics do also feature the SAME dress from the other day.. Yep... Happy New Year! Slow FACES for the NEW YEAR!
