Corn yellow & Teal blue (BTFE Cosmetics)



Okay let me just say, about %10 percent of mineral pigments that are Matte suck for me lol. Seriously, nothing I do can make matte pigments look good on the lid or crease. I can work it with shadows, but for some reason matte pigments are kinda tricky.

But the night before trying this look I decided to do a pre-run with Beauty from the Earth's "Sweet Nibblets." Honesty, guys this was the easiest matte pigment I've used in awhile. I was so surprised to feel how silky the matte pigment felt as it went on. It really showed up beautiful and I am quite impressed.

I was again inspired by what I wear. As most of you know I love to be inspired by many things including what fashion I seem to be wearing. I hope you like!


What I Used:

Beauty from the Earth pigment in "Sweet Nibblets" (matte corn yellow on lid and tear ducts)
Beauty from the Earth pigment in "Playful" (light purple blue color on lower lashline on the inner tear ducts only)
Beauty from the Earth pigment in "Caribbean" (tealish green color, crease blended into brow highlight and lower lashline)
NARS eyeshadow in "Kilimanjaro I" u can use MAC "Vanilla" as dupe (brow highlight)
NARS eyeshadow in "Night Flight" (sparkly dark blue to darken crease)
Urban Decay Liner in "Zero" (waterline)

Blush:
Allez Couleurs Blush in "Bubblegum"

Lips:
NYX Lipstick in "Thalia"
Sally Hansen Lacquer Shine in "Orchid"



Purple, Orange, Light Purple (Exposed Organics)


I got this shirt on clearance at Target, yes clearance lol. I am a bargain shopper ya'll! Anyway, Tulio loved the pattern on this shirt and wanted to see me use it for inspiration. This is what I came up with.

I wanted to use inexpensive items so you can keep cost down but still have a great look! I really loved these colors by Exposed Organics. They really showed beautiful and I got several compliments on my make up this day wearing these shadows.. I hope you enjoy!

What I Used:

Eyes:
Exposed Organics eye dust in "Purple People Eater" (crease and lower lashline)
Exposed Organics eye dust in "Marci" (Lid)
Exposed Organics eye dust in "Nymph" (tear ducts & under brow highlight blended into purple people eater)

Blush:

Neutral Eyes w/ Yellow Duo pop & Hot Gold Pink Lip


I did this look the other day while heading off to the mall. My mom was looking for a special ring my niece bought from Hot Topic. She is so cute, she saved up her money to buy the $16 ring. .. then a week later it broke. She was soooo upset. But Hot Topic being the cool company it is, replaced it for free!! It was so awesome.

I hope you like this look, I wanted to add a lil yellow duochrome in there for some pop on the eyes.

HOT PINK, Deep Purple, Lime Green & Dark Green (Shirt Inspired)

Beauty Marked is so much more in person. Seriously you can't see the flecks of red glitter on my lid which totally sucks lol. I hate that, because it takes away from the effect.

Anyway with that said lol I was inspired by a shirt I got at Target for $4.98!! yes, you read me right. I found this gorgeously bright and colorful shirt in the clearance isle I just love. I pair with leggings and flats, and I love the outfit so much. I always love a bargain and it was a great buy!!

Welp these pictures really suck, since I was rushing since busy with work, and we were on our way to dinner. Sorry!

Bitch Slap Pigment & NARS Smokey & RED LIPS!



I went to the movies the other night very late (12:00am) lol I had to work, and our friends who we double dated with came over, and one thing led to another .. we just talked and talked. lol and we missed two times we would have seen the movie lmao!

I just got this blouse from Target (which I love!) and knew right away I wanted to pair it with a hot red color. I also knew a nice smokey would look great to go with my hot lip color. The smokey color I patted on top I am in love with. It is made by Sigma makeup. I am quiet impressed.

MAC Olive & Light Blue & UPDATE!



Hey guys, so over the week and most likely all day Monday night I will be doing my blog. It took longer than usual because like I mentioned before our busiest time of graphics is like Oct-Feb14. So, again I apologize for not having time to update. I have some great new looks coming, and reviews on some great new affordable makeup lines!

Seriously, my natural hair color is so dark it makes me always look mean lol. I'm not damn it! *shakes fist*
