EOTD: Dramatic Rainbow with a Cut Crease

>> Friday, March 19, 2010

I have been rather bored lately and pretty un inspired with my makeup so I decided to sit down last night and let my makeup brushes go to work... I wasn't going any where so I wanted something over the top and totally not wearable....  I came up with this drag-esqe rainbow look.  I have seen similar looks like this before in the blog-o-sphere with the rainbow bottom and dark black cut crease... but I did my own interpretation of it.. and well herrrre it is!   Leave me your feed back! :)







Believe it or not I used NO mac products for this look except my Base (Painterly Paint pot)

Other Products used: NYX Milk Jumbo Pencil in Milk as a base for the rainbow part
And all the shadows came from the 120 and 88 palette.

Gaga-glamorous!!!

>> Wednesday, February 10, 2010

FINALLY Ladies....
Its Heerrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!


Many of us have been awaiting the debut of the Lady Gaga & Cindy Lauper Viva Glam co-lab! 
I didn't waste any time in picking up the Viva Glam Gaga!


MAC decribes this l/s as:
A high lustre finish and a cool blue-pink shade



 

This Pink is beyond perfect for Spring time! Even though it's a lustre finish it is very bulidable in color.
It's like a more wearable version of Saint Germain.

I only picked up one, but after putting this on my lips.. I might have to stock up on a few back ups!! 
I mean after all, you are DONATING $14 to the MAC aids fund. What better way to donate to a great cause while making your lips look

LOTD: Valentine's Day Daytime Look

We alllllll know that Valentine’s day is fast approaching, as soon as the stores take down their masses of Christmas and New Years displays they quickly become flooded with Red and Pink!!!  Valentine’s Day is always special for me and the boyfriend; we usually try and do something different together every year.  Last year he made me this *Delicious* gourmet dinner at home, it was very romantic; he did all the shopping, cooking, and serving… it was the best!
This year Courtney and I have decided to take advantage of the AMAZING deal that’s going on over at DISNEY!!!  If you’re from Florida you already know that Disney has a 4day-4Parks Pass for $99!!!!  So this year were headed to O-town for a romantic weekend get away! I can’t wait!!

I was playing with a new eye shadow color today and did what could be a great day time look for V-Day.
