FOTD: Happy Easter




Happy Easter lovelies! As an adult, I have found that Easter is a holiday that I don't really celebrate anymore. I am sure that will change if I ever have children though. For now, I will do my makeup and eat some Marshmellow Peeps. It's raining and nasty here in the Midwest, so I thought that I could do some pastel like makeup to liven it up. I came up with this look this morning and am pretty happy with how it came out.

FOTD: St. Patrick's Day

Today's makeup look is inspired by today's holiday - St. Patrick's Day. I originally wanted to do a BRIGHT green look like I did last year, but the look came out darker. I was actually surprisingly happy with the darkness of this look. I also received a compliment while I was out eating breakfast with my boyfriend. I think that the darker greens bring out my brown eyes more. 


 Here is what the eye makeup looks like up close on the eye. I started with a lighter green in the inner corner and worked out to a darker green mixed with black to define the outer-v area. 

Products used:
Eyes:Urban Decay Primer Potion
L'oreal infallible in Golden Emerald (as a base)
BH Cosmetics 88 Standard Shimmer

Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara
ELF Liquid liner in Black

Face:

Tarte Amazonian Clay blush in Exposed

Fourth of July

 Happy Independence Day everyone! I really wanted to do a fun patriotic look to celebrate this holiday. I used shades of blue and white on the lid with some fun gold glitter to spice it up a little bit. I also created a winged liner look using some red eyeliner to give a little pop. I kept the rest of the face neutral to balance out the dramatic eyes. I'm really happy with how the look came out. Let me know what you think!
