MOTD: Purple Glittery Smokey Eye
I LOVE PURPLE and I LOVE GLITTER!!!
I am going to make this quick and edit later, I just wanted to get these pics out before I post MYMOTD on Instagram this evening.
Please subscribe to my blog as I will be hosting a special contest for all my blog readers out there. Please leave a comment on what type of contests you would like to see :) I have lots of makeup to share.
Time for a glittery purple smokey eye! Eye Shadows - white, purple, light brown and black from the #Wetnwild Color Icon Palette I Love Matte. This palette is amazing especially for a brand that can be found at a drugstore. I could only find it at Walgreens. Swatches and in depth review in a later post. Lips are Covergirl Lipstick #330 Divine
To make this look extra special I packed on
glitter in Tiny Tart. P.S. The Liquid Sugar Glitter Glue is AMAZING! Did not irritate my eyes at all. They have a large selection of glitters, literally colors of the rainbow. I will be featuring more colors for future MOTD's.
Now to top off my glittery purple smokey eye why not pair it with some Violet Noir lashes from
. Look closely, do you see the purple feathers mixed in with the falsie?? Adds an added dramatic flair to the makeup.
Here's more close up pictures!
MOTD: Golden/Pink Eye with Masquerade Cosmetics
Recently, I found Masquerade Cosmetics on Instagram and was instanly drawn to their bright colored shadows, I knew I had to get my hands on them. From their pictures the eye shadows were so richly pigmented very similar to Makeup Forever. I couldn't wait to try some of their products. Masquerade Cosmetics is an Australian based company but they do ship Internationally.
The colors I used to create this look are the following :
Masquerade Shimmer Powder #67
Warm golden shimmer placed on the lid
Masquerade Eye Shadow #87
Pretty golden pink shade blended in the crease
I've been looking for a color like this forever. It's hard to find a shade like this that's not too gold this shadow has just the right amount of pink and gold. Looks fab with medium to tan skintones.
Masquerade Shimmer Powder #96
Bright magenta pink with touches of silver sparkle added to the outer corners of the eyes. I adore this color especially when you mix it with the gold shimmer powder, looks lovely!
Masquerade Eye Shadow #495
Muted purple grey to add depth in the outer corner crease. I can't wait to pair this with a smokey eye!
Lashes are the SASHA Lash from FAUXLASH.COM. Check out my post about these lashes
Can't wait to create more looks with Masquerade Cosmetics!
MOTD: Gorgeous Gold with a mix of blues and turquoise
MAC Gorgeous Gold, Freshwater, Plumage and Haunting (Limited Edition).
Trying a new layout for the MOTD'S on Instagram. Thought it would be nice to showcase the colors that I use so you can see what the actual colors looked like and see if you have colors that are similar.
I am sorry that I have not been posting any new material, been busy planning my wedding, vacationing and beau-TIFF-ing up brides for their special day. Promise I'll post more on a regular basis. :)
MOTD: Neon Trend With Sleek Acid Palette
Every time I see neon colors especially the electrifying yellow I always think of the 80's. I am a 80's child, I was always drawn to the sparkle of Gem And The Holograms and the wild bright outfits of Punky Brewster (what happened to that girl? hmm). Summer 2012 you can see neon everywhere from fashion, to home decor and of course beauty.
If you like BRIGHT, BOLD colors the Sleek Acid Palette is for you. I mentioned in my other posts with looks from this palette that you cannot get this palette in the US through
you will need to find a reputable seller on Ebay. I have bought all my Sleek Makeup through there and they are legit and at times get free shipping which is a major plus!
I was inspired to use these colors from a shirt that I found at H&M.
I added MAC Waveline Fluidline for the pop of blue/purple for the lower liner. I thought it would add a different more colorful approach then using ordinary black.
