  So I hope you all are enjoying all the fantastic Halloween looks out there. I know I am! I love this time of year. So today's question is : What was the best costume you've ever had & why? I think one of my all time favorites had to be when I was growing up. I was probably around 9 or so, and it was a homemade gypsy/ fortune teller costume. I wish I had a photo of it! It was wonderful!  :D Thanks for looking beauties! Have a great day!

Thanks so much for reading guys! I love the fall. One of the best things about fall is that there is finally something to watch on TV again. I've been trying on Person of Interest, Terra Nova, and happy to be watching the new seasons of Big Bang Theory and Boardwalk Empire.  So what are you watching? Is there some gem out there I should check out?

NTMS : Punk Rock & Roll Challenge - Jeni Only

Never Too Much Sparkle Facebook Group Challenge:
Theme:
Punk Rock and Roll!!

For Challenges I'm not going to list off products used. It will just be a photo entry for the most part and how I was influenced by the challenge. If you are curious about a particular item I used, please feel free to comment below and I'll do my best to answer!

My influence:

I decided to go with the first band that came to mind for me. The Misfits. I grew up with them. They very much influenced me as a teen, and I continue to adore them. I chose my look to be based on Jerry Only's signature skellie makeup. Because it's on me.. I've called this look "Jeni Only" :D

The one and ONLY! Jerry Only (photo courtesy of Google image search)

This is a Ghouls Night Out!
Die, Die, Die My Darling!

EOTD 10.07.11 Candy Corn

Good News Everyone! A New EOTD!

Yeah.. I know you've seen this kinda thing a million times before. Well.. I have too, but I've never done it. So here's my version of the pretty candy corn eyes. The liner wing is suppose to represent the curved bottoms of the candy corns, I think it looks neat close up (which was how I was applying my makeup with my magnified mirror) but.. I think from a distance the wing isn't so cute. I think I just over all prefer a pointier wing. The idea of why its there, and why its curved like that kinda gets lost from further a way.. but oh well. Now I know.. and knowing is half the battle. Go Joe!

What I used:
2FSI - Primer
Evil Shades Spectrum Pot: Vitrum - white base
BFTE: Crystal - inner corner/ inner 1/3 lid
Evil Shades: Mad People - mid 1/3 lid
BFTE: Lemon - outer 1/3 lid
Maybelline Expert Eyes Quad: Urban Scene (White matte from top right) - Highlight
ELF Liquid Eyeliner: #00908 black - eyeliner + wing
Wet n Wild Color Icon eyeliner pencil : 656A (White) - waterline
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Very Black
Brazen Cosmetics Lipglaze: Make Out (I put it over a clear lipgloss so it's more opaque than this shows here)




Thanks for takin' a peak at my candy coated eyes today! I think my  favorite Halloween candy has to be black jelly beans. I just adore them. Sugary anise/ black licorice has to be one of my all time favorite smells also. Anyone out there know of any perfumeries that carry something that is riddled heavy with sweet sugary anise notes? What is YOUR favorite Halloween candy?
