Palace Pedigreed

Hey ladies,

So I used to wear crazy ass colors on a daily basis to work and what not, then I got a promotion and I seem to be wearing much more subtle colors... I need to do more of my intense looks though cause I don't want my blog to get b-o-r-i-n-g with the same looks over and over. So if you feel bored with my looks, feel free to let me know. Also if you want me to attempt any particular look just lemme know. Alrighty so now onto this look...

I have been shopping and buying makeup like a crazy woman! And I recently got a small haul from M.A.C.... yay! One of the products I got was the palace pedigreed palette (which by the way is fantabulous!) I love the colors, they're so feminine and just purtaaaay. Here are some photos of what I came up with. Let me know what you think! As always thanks for checkin out my blog and for following!!! :)

***Super side note... definitely liked my hair in these above photos! I got it cut and now it's shorter... but whatever... it'll grow... I just felt like randomly throwing that comment in there... okay onto more photos!

Thanks for looking!!!! :-)

Pretty In Pink

Hey Ladies,

This is a look that created back in January and I love love love it! It's very dramatic, but I wear dramatic colors everyday ;).... you can tone it down if necessary to make it to your liking. I am going to be making my next video tutorial on this look. I hope you like it... if you are interested to know the colors used or anything like that, leave a comment and I'll answer all questions. As always thanks for looking!!!

Here is the tutorial as promised on how to create this look. (note, the video I did today isn't quite as pink as the pictures...BUT, you use these three colors I show you in the video. Depending on how pink you want it, you just add more white to the inner corner and blend into the red and so on, the colors will turn more pink/purple the more you blend. I did the look very quickly in this video. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave comments. Thanks for looking and I hope you like my tutorial! :)

Recreation of Julieg713 Burning Sunset

So I saw this video of a look I really liked. you can watch the video here Julieg713 Burning Sunset... hers is most definitely better than what I did. But I was just playing around with my 88 matte color palette from coastal scents and I quickly tried to do a re-creation of her look. Below are the photos. If you are interested in what colors I used, just leave a comment and I'll post them. :) Thanks for looking!

Ben Nye Look

Hey guys,

It has been sooooo long since I've posted anything or updated my blog!!! AAAAAH. Well I am back and ready to keep posting different looks. Recently I got two makeup gigs!!! I did the bridal party for both weddings. I need to get the photos gathered and up here so you can see how they turned out :)

Right now I am posting a look I created last night using my Ben Nye Luminere palette. I love these colors and don't use this palette enough. I was very tired and kind of out of it so I didn't talk through the video. I just did the techniques and what not and showed you what I used. Hope you enjoy the video. Leave comments if you have any questions or would like to request any looks!

As always, thanks for watching!!!!

Ben Nye Look

Hey ladies,

I've been super busy so haven't been able to post for a little bit... my birthday was Monday (YAY!) and this whole week I've been working and then going places each night and getting home mega late, so I've been super tired... BUUUUTTT I ordered tons of makeup as a present to myself :) And one of the pallets I ordered was the Ben Nye shadows... first off they are GORGEOUS! and really pigmented... I love them.. I think it's funny that they are considered clown makeup, but hey whatever works, ya know... Anyway I haven't used it too much, but the first look I decided to try was a bright pink one. So here it is.... let me know what you think :)

Random Photos I Found of Different Looks :)

Just different looks I have done and had random photos on my computer... hope you like :)

Black and Pink

Just goofing off with different looks. This was with black and pink shadow... not a very good look, but I tried lol. I love heavy makeup with the smokey eye look. I am soooo used to it now that when I don't wear makeup I think I look like a beast! How awful is that lol...
