FOTD: Zoey Deutch

Lately I'm pretty excited for the Movie Beautiful Creatures to come out. I'm a sucker for the teen paranormal romance genera. Who knew that would ever be a genera!? I kind of want to read the book before I see the movie but that probably wont happen. But any way I came across this look of Zoey Deutch on the Beautiful creatures Facebook fan page. I thought it was really pretty and interesting and wanted to take a stab at recreating it.

FOTD: Deep Primary Colors

My face today was inspired by the colors in my leopard shirt that I got a last week. Normally I'm not much of an animal print person but I thought the colors were really interesting together, Burgundy, Navy Blue and Mustard Yellow. I wasn't sure how well the combo would turn out in an eyeshadow look but I was quite happy with how it turned out. 

FOTD: Tropical Face On A Snowy Day

The other day I was perusing photos on Beautylish  and came across this one photo that caught my eye. It was by Olivia D (click for photo) it was your traditional neutral with winged liner but with a twist. It had green under the eye and purple brows. Well with my love for purple brows I had to try it. Plus I'm down for anything that goes with purple brows.

 Oh yeah did I mention it goes with my new purple hair!

Wet N Wild Comfort Zone Pallet REVIEW & FOTD

Last week Rite Aid had a buy 1 get 1 50% off sale on Wet N Wild makeup so I picked up a few pallets that I had been meaning to try. Two pallets for $7.49 I couldn't pass it up especially after winning 20$ on a scratch off ticket the day before.

Naughty Not Nice FOTD

Ok so First off I made this spread on Beautysets.com, and I am in love with the site! Basically you get to make your own beauty magazine page spreads.It brings me right back to my typography and design classes.

I'm really digging this format for a FOTD post. I think it adds something more having pictures of the products used instead of just listing them.

Wet N' Wild Cool As A Cucumber Pallet REVIEW & FOTD

last week I was feeling pretty down and in need of some makeup retail therapy so I headed to the drug store. Not much caught my eye of anything that I needed or wanted except this Wet N' Wild Cool As A Cucumber Pallet. I thought hey here are some nice fall colors. I'm sucking every last bit of fall out that I can... it's supposed to snow today, Boo. I'm not ready for the cold weather.

FOTD: Sayanythingbr00ke's Royal Drama Eyeshadow

The other day I was catching up on my YouTube subscriptions and watched Sayanythingbr00ke do this amazingly bright blue eye and I had to try it out! I'll never know why I don't wear blue eyeshadow more often it's so muck fun. Lashes on the other hand are the bane of my existence. maybe someday I will be able to apply them easily and make them look good. I guess it's going to take a lot of bad practice to get it right.

FOTD Sugar Skull

Halloween is a little less than two days away and I can't help but to keep trying out different Halloween makeup looks. I keep seeing all of these amazing Sugar Skulls on all the beauty sites and realize I have never tried to make one. Plus seeing as we are in the midst of hurricane sandy here in the Berkshires I have nothing better to do than put makeup on my face. It's what I usually do when I get really bored. Hey who knows it might scare the hurricane away. Wishful thinking.

Maybelline Color tattoo 24hr Eyeshdow #200 Mossy Green Review/FOTD

 Maybelline Color tattoo 24hr Eyeshadow #200 Mossy Green is apart of the Limited Edition Fall 2012 fashion Week Collection. It is one out of 4 of the Color Tattoo shadows in the collection. It's the perfect color for fall if you want a fall color but don't want to go with the browns. 

FOTD (September 16th)

Oh boy do I love being able to pull out the Fall makeup colors again. You can never go wrong with a neutral pinup eye look and some plum/berry dark lipstick. The leaves are already starting to change here so que up the fall inspiration. It's time to have fun with the warm tones and vampy lips.

FOTD: Summer's Cooling Down

So summer is winding down here in the Berkshires and my favorite season autumn is right around the corner. The days have been sunny and warm but with nice cool breezes. Thank god because I was getting sick of the supper hot days.  I'm just itching to pull out the darker colors. Why hello jewel tones and plums I feel like it's been a while. I'm also excited that I get to wear my grandpa sweaters again in the early mornings and at night. Man I have missed them.

FOTD: Midnight Smokey Blue

So far it's been a pretty gloomy day. I can't complain though It's the first rainy day of my vacation and we need the rain anyway. I thought I would reflect that in my makeup today. Plus I figured I would branch out a bit I don't do smokey eyes often.

FOTD Feline Safari

A day off means having time to actually play with my makeup. I wanted to play around with an extreme cat eye with a defined inner corner. I'm really liking the combonation of the liner with the olive green it just makes me thing of African safari.

FOTD 6/27 Beat The Heat

Summer is here and with the heat and humidity no one wants to walk around with heavy caked on makeup so I wanted to go for something that was as light as possible. Plus being in the sun SPF is a must!

FOTD June 18, Summer Orange & Gold

Today I was watching a Pixiewoo video with a bold gold and black liner and I got inspired. I thought it needed a little something more so I started with an orange base and added a slightly shimmery peach over top. Plus if your a blue eyed girl the orange is going to make your blue eyes pop!

FOTD June 16th Purple Brows

Who says your brow color and hair color have to match! I don't know what it is but colored brows always make me feel saucy. At first this morning I was just going to go with a neutral taupe on the lid and purple on the lower lash line but I felt like the look needed something more, and nothing says a little more like purple eyebrows. And Yes! I dare to wear purple bows to work.

FOTD May 24, Monochromatic Lilac

FOTD May 5th Cinco de Mayo!

When looking through my make up this morning trying to decide what to do for a look I noticed that I didn't have too much in the terms of green eyeshadow. I also couldn't remember I I liked green eyeshadow on me, so my mind was made up green it was. this look has no real relevance to Cinco de Mayo it's just coincidences but I can bet 10$ there will be a whole heck of a lot of fireworks going off tonight in my neighborhood. I'd say a Margarita is in order to drowned it out though.

FOTD May 3rd: NikkieTutorials Neon Nights Inspired

So earlier in the week I watched Nikkie Tutorials video Neon Nights (video below) and loved it!
I was excited to find a way to wear the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on pencil in Woodstock that I had revived in my MyGlam bag and thought score an other way to wear it.

FOTD May 2nd

After having a little tast of spring the other week with the 80 degree weather and now back to gloomy and cold I thought I would brighten things up to will spring back with some bright color. I have got to say that OCC's wassabi is one of my favorite colors to put in the inner corner of the eye. It always seems to brighten things up.
