Liquid Liner; why I normally don't wear it

Since I work 6 days a week I really have no need for a more dramatic look. That and I work with mainly guys who don't understand ''cosmetics''. I do really love liquid liner my favorite being Urban Decay's liquid liner. I own Perversion, Ecstasy, Acid Rain, Minx, Revolver, Radium, Shattered, and Smog. They are really great colors, and are awesome liners. So if you get a chance you should pick one at. They sell them at Sephora for $18, and I believe at Ulta too.

EOTD 2/14

Today I used MAC's Softwash Grey Pigment all over my lid with Bare Escentuals Praise Eyeshadow on the outter third up into the crease smoked out. MAC's Brule eyeshadow was used as my brow highlight. I used Urban Decay's 24/7 Liner in Binge on my lower water/lash line. Covergirl's Last Blast was used on my upper lashes.

What are other good ways to use these colors??

My Everyday Staples and the Beginning of my EOTD ( no pictures for now)

My main staples I use everyday are:

- TheBalm Hot Mama
- Too Faced Shadow Insurance
- Covergirl Lash Blast (Black)
- MAC Studio Concealer (NW25)
- MAC Brule Eyeshadow (as brown highlight)
- MAC Skinfinish Natural (Medium)

I know my EOTD (eye of the day) doesn't really include the rest of my face, but I figured I'd post what I use anyways :) I'll add pictures once I finally have everything set up computer and camera wise. I'll be running my EOTD for around a month. It may be longer depending if I can keep up something different everyday. You will notice I prefer to use pigments over shadows. I use pigments/mineral eyeshadows from companies such as Bare Escentuals, MAC, Fyrnnae, and Heavenly Naturals.

Thank You Laura!

I just wanted to say thank you to Laura from Vanity's Edge. She posted my previous post in her blog. I'm glad I have such a great best friend as her! And to think we met by swapping! I'll post her site link as soon as I figure out how to.. I'm using my phone.. :) Check her out she has some great posts!!

In Need of Foundation... Concealer? Why yes it is!

I currently have been trying to figure out a new foundation to use. I like ones that are more on the matte side since I feel those do last longer. So as usual I stopped by MAC on my trip to the mall.


The MAC MA suggested that since I wanted a foundation that lasted longer than my current foundation (which is a mixture of face and body, tinted moisterizer, and studio sculpt) that I could use a concealer. She said that since I have good skin I could use the Studio Finish concealer on problems spots, and then use their Prep and Prime powder to set the concealer. My main concern when going in was finding something that would last through work, and was matte. If you have a more labor intensive job this might not work as well. I was finding that even with a desk job my little mixture was melting off halfway through a normal work day. After the MA applied the concealer ( which she only used a very tiny bit with their small stippling brush) I could see a difference. It didn't look like I was wearing foudation/concealer, and it was matte. Perfect!! 

January Favorites

I'm really starting to like the Urban Decay 24/7 Liners. I'll swatch the ones I have, and if I stop over at Sephora I'll swatch the rest.

On a side note I'm not too impressed with the way MAC changed their pigment containers. The containers themselves are nice, but I'm not too crazy about the price staying the same.

Why I'm Upset

For one thing having a little sister (She's 14 almost 15) who takes your stuff is really annoying. I normally can find it in her room somewhere, but there are things I was never able to find after my mother has this urge to clear my room. Some how I lost items that were in my make up drawers.. .. like my Too Faced Shadow Insurance (NIB), Buckwheat eyeshadow (NIB), Mac's Holiday Pallets in Warm Eyes, Napoleon Perdis Loose Dust in Leaf just to name a few. I've found my Prada Perfume in her room before, and my mother had no idea. She claimed my sister hasn't been home . . yeah okay . . I come home after moving out, and I can't find my stuff again . . big surprise. That's not cheap stuff either! I gave my sister all the stuff I decided I didn't need, and she still steals my stuff. Makes me want to grab all her Abercrombie and Fitch clothes and sell them. . See if she likes her stuff taken. Sorry just had to vent. . I miss my stuff :(

Ugh I made a oops this morning.. .

So when I was doing my daily face routine I totally put Lush's Karma Karma on my face instead of their vanishing cream.. .. I hope I don't break out . . Oops!

I LOVE Lush!

Lush has this current promotion where 100% of their sales from the "Jungle" Soap (which is limited edition, and palm oil free) go to the Rainforest Foundation. So if you like their solid Jungle conditioner you'll absolutely love this soap, I know I do! It goes great with my green themed bathroom. They also have a limited edition soap wall with 9 of their best selling soaps in this "wall" like container all of which are palm oil free to support and protect the Rainforest, and the endangered orangutan's who existence is threatened by the Palm Oil Industry.
