Green Gold for St. Patrick's Day



HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!


I hope everyone has a nice holiday, and remembers to be safe! It's almost the weekend and hope everyone has a little bit of somethin' green to celebrate ;D

I promised to post another look, and at 4am I did this look. LOL Not bad for 4am I might say. Of course the pictures could have been better (in a rut) but I decided to pull myself out of it, and just have fun.

I hope you like what I came up with. I wanted to incorporate a lil gold action into the look, but you can barely see the flecks because of my camera. Sorry :( But the HN color really is gorgeous.

Anyway, Hope you remember to wear green today! :D

What I used:

Eyes:

Mehron Palette "Pastel" (green from palette applied all over lid blended into crease & lower lashline)
Luminous Cosmetics pigment in "Green Apple" (Middle of lid & mirrored on lower lash line)
Prestige skin loving minerals "Emerald" (Dark Green color, crease blended into brow highlight & corner of outer lower lashline)
MAC cosmetics eyeshadow in "Swimming" (Blended over Emerald in crease, to make a little lighter)
Luminous Cosmetics pigment in "Sunshine" (Tear Ducts)
Heavenly Natural pigment in "Pot o Gold" (Patted on top of Sunshine)
NARS eyeshadow in "Kilimanjaro I" (Brow highlight)
Urban Decay liner in "Covet" (Waterline)

Blush:
Revlon creme blush in "Precious Coral"

Browns & Gold (Bitchslap Cosmetics & Prestige Cosmetics)

YES, don't adjust your screens! I am wearing neutrals!.. almost. LOL I decided to keep it semi neutral and decided to go with some gold I haven't worn in awhile. I am dying to do another gold and teal look, but I'm sure you are all tired of me using teal lmao.

I hope you like this simple look. I find Prestige one of my favorite drug store brands to buy from. Their shadows are extremely soft and pigmented and work extremely well. I don't have to say anything for Bitch Slap's pigments because they speak for themselves. :) really really gorgeous.

Please let me know your comments below!

What I used:

Eyes:
BitchSlap Cosmetics Pigment in "Fuck you Bitch" lol (Middle lid & mirrored lower lash line)
Prestige eyeshadow duo in "CD-10 Cinnamon Stick" *brown side* (Crease & outer corner lower lashline)
Prestige eyeshadow in "CD-10 Cinnamon Stick" *lighter frosty creme side* (Brow highlight)
Prestige eyeshadow in "C-60 Coffee Bean" (To darken crease)
NYC liquid liner (top lashline)

Blush:
Wet & Wild "Strike-A-Pose-Rose" #346"

Lips:
NYX lipstick in "Ares"
Wet & Wild Speed Gloss "#942 Frenzied"

Date Night Look and Sally Hansen Swatches & Review (Dollar Tree!)

I did this look to go out on a date with my honey to see Ninja Assassin. Movie was ehh. I love martial arts movies, but this didn't impress me. We still had a nice time and had some goood nachos lol.

I recently went to the Dollar Store with my honey who pointed out these beautiful Sally Hansen lip glosses. They are quite larger than most lip glosses and for a dollar...pshh don't have to ask me twice lol. I wasn't sure what to expect but I have heard in the past that Sally Hansen lip glosses were very pigmented. I can honestly say that these lip glosses are amazing. The pigmentation are way better than any MAC lip glass I've purchased. The red is so gorgeous in person. Each totally multidimensional in color. The pink (Orchid) has a gold shimmer to it but not like glitter clumps like MAC dazzle glass. The nude rose color (Ginger) is my favorite after the red. It's sooo beautiful in person. I need to go back for a second purchase, because I can't get over how great these are. I will be probably trying more lip glosses from Sally Hansen. I know you guys will love these and more important they are affordable! I mean for $1.00 they really really shine.

My girl @thattallchick25 from twitter was able to find these at her local Dollar Tree, so be sure to stop by and see if you can get these for only $1.00!!

What I Used:
Eyes:
Heavenly Naturals eye primer
Heavenly Naturals in "Vanilla Crush" (brow highlight)
Heavenly Naturals in "Pure Bliss" (lid)
Heavenly Naturals in "Desire" (middle of lid)
Heavenly Naturals in "Soulful" (tear ducts)
Heavenly Naturals in "Swagger" (outer crease & lower lashline)
Heavenly Naturals in "Kitten" (to darken crease)

Blush:
Prestige Blushing Duo in "Raffia"

Lips:
Sally Hansen Lacquer Shine in "Poppy #70"


(TOP TO BOTTOM) Orchid #60, Ginger #20, Poppy #70
