...ramblings...

I got a request to recreate this look from a few years back... Original... New... Tut....

So I'm obsessed with doing basic lanyard stitches and turning them into jewelry... Yes I know... I'm 25... I've made them using gimp and micro suede cord... I plan to get some bright colors soon because summer is coming and they will look soo awesome stacked... -------------------------------------------- So Sunday was Easter Sunday/ Resurrection Sunday.. Here is my hair and makeup...totally planned on talking pics of my whole outfit... but by the time I got home I didn't feel like it... The eyes were just simple gold on the lid and brown and black in the crease... I think the gold color is actually Urban Decay's Baked... I used Red Cherry #213 lashes...very natural for church... And I primed my eyes with Jesse's Girl Eyeshadow Primer (love this stuff...) and NYX Eyeshadow Base in White... (also love...) ______________________ Super old look that somehow never got posted... I don't know why I did this... Meh, cute green look.... -------------...

hello lovers... So I was off today...  So I recorded some videos...  Which I'm too lazy to edit today... but whatever... Anyways. I did a little makeup...  And here it is... I used Electric by Ulta as the main purple color (inner and outer corner)... the green is Absinthe by Urban Decay (middle of lid)... The inner-inner corner has some Techno by Hard Candy...I have a little bit of Urban Decay's Perversion & Ben Nye's Amethyst in the outer crease...  The lower lash line is Nyx's Morocco and the highlight is my trusted Butterscotch by Hard Candy. Obligatory Edited Pic And I see I have a few new followers... How Y'all Doing?

So I don't know exactly when St. Patty's is.... but I knew it is/was recent or soon, or whatever... So I mistakenly did a look for St. Patty's...yeah.... I guess that's it...

Well, I had an interview yesterday... But I am definitely still looking! ------------------------------------------------------------- Thursday 17 2009 My mom went to her 40 Year High school Reunion...And I made the favors... Friday 18 2009 Ride the Wave!...Roots...I'm 14 Weeks Post... Saturday 19 2009 Um... I did a look...So here are the pics and the link to the tut... Monday 21 2009 A flower from my garden...it's a Zinnia...It has grown to be as tall as me... (I'm 5'2)... ...don't know if you can tell but it's nowhere near the ground... Ruff and Tuff with my Afro(like) Puff....

So, yesterday (Sunday), started Senior Week.... We had a Ball... This is what I rocked...

Boredom...and Curiosity created this.... once again it was a one eye type deal.. Just thought I'd share! in these last two...I tuned up the contrast a little bit...

So this post is going to be all over the place... But you can expect a blurb about: -my hair -makeup -cost of textbooks - and maybe something else? So, let's start with my hair.... I decided it was a good idea to take my twists out... Um...Wow! I have way more new growth than I thought...it's about an inch and a half of curl... So yeah...Due to my inability to really take care of my hair in this state... or wanting to ... The twists are going to make a comeback, this weekend.... The main reason is that I don't want to fight with my hair...It took me two hours to straighten my hair yesterday...no curls... just straightening...Also since I'm stretching (probably for another 2 or 3 months)...I'm going to have a hard time maintaining the two textures.... So yeah...Here's a picture... that shows it all... click to enlarge Ok...so now to the makeup... A couple of things I've done in last couple of weeks... This is really simple...I wore ...

Nye, That is... So yesterday I was playing around with my Ben Nye Palette (which I love!)... And I was like "hmm, I wonder If I can get all of these colors on my eye"... Turns out (for now) I can get 8 on top and I put the other four on the bottom! So yeah... Before you judge... I wasn't really going for a super blended look....more like a pretend editorial jazz... So yeah... And my stupid lipgloss feathered, which has been happening to me lately...Maybe I need to invest in a better wax pencil for me's lips... And my eyebrows suck, they hate me lately.... And you can see my lady lip hairs...lol! quick change Eyes Ben Nye Grande Lumiere Palette L'oreal H.i.P. Cream Liner in Black Ardell Lashes and I went to see "Not Easily Broken" I really liked this movie, the quality of it really surprised me... not what I usually expect from black cinema... and I wore this look...
