EOTD 02.26.12 Mad Unicorn Pee

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!

Today's eye started with a little inspiration from Nicki Minaj. I first saw it looking for inspiration for my last look. HOLY MOLY.. have you seen the way she wears yellow? Yeah.. that's my AWE face. LOL! I don't generally take inspiration from celebrities. But when I saw that blue/ purple gradient from her Super Bass video my heart skipped a beat. This is just inspired by her look, I don't have professional MUA skills plus I don't have any mattes, so instead I used lots of shimmery metallics and glitters. It looks really sparkly and pretty in person. However my photography skills have yet to improve enough to capture the beauty of holo glitter on camera.. but believe me when I say the portion of this look that includes unicorn pee is a FABULOUS GLITTER BOMB! :D

What I used:
NYX Jumbo Pencil: Milk - White base
Beauty From the Earth: Butt Naked - Highlight & inner 1/2 lower lash line
My Pretty Zombie: Unicorn Pee - Inner 1/3 lid/crease
Sugarpill ChromaLust: Starling - Middle 1/3 lid/crease
My Pretty Zombie: Mad Cow - Outer 1/3 lide crease
Beauty From the Earth: Midnight Kisses - outer 1/2 lower lash line flicked out to wing
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Very Black
ELF Liquid Eyeliner: #4203 black - eyeliner + wing
NYX Jumbo Pencil: Milk - waterline
Brazen Cosmetics: Peep Show - lips

Indoor Lighting

Natural Light

The only photo where the holo glitter showed at all.

So hope your weekends are going well. Mine is going pretty good too thanks! The power company is coming in and doing some work on Tuesday this week. This means at minimum the power will be off for 8 hours. So my question for you all is WHAT the heck do you do when the power is out? I need lots of ideas! That's a long time without heat, heated food, light, internet, etc... Thanks for looking! 

EOTD 12.16.11 Belated 1st Blogiversary

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!

So yeah.. I missed my 1 year Blogiversary. /sigh.. (Bad Jeni, bad blogger!)  It was 2 days ago, but meh.. I've been not really feeling up to doing my makeup lately. I have depression and serious amounts of fatigue something fierce right now. I have a lot of negative personal things going on in my life at the moment, but what doesn't kill us makes us stronger... right? After applying my eyeshadow no more than 5 different times today... all were utter failures, I decided to do something purple. Its my favorite color and that in itself made me grin. Hysteric is freaking gorgeous! The turquoise sparkles in it are to die for. I also added some Paperdoll to not only help blend my colors toegther, but it has the prettiest dark purple sparklies in it also. :D  I think this turned out well considering I'm so out of practice lately.

What I used:
Sugarpill: Paperdoll - high crease area & middle lid to blend out
Sugarpill: Hysteric - Outer 1/2 lid, crease & 1/3 outer lower lash line
Brazen Cosmetics: Millennium  - Inner1/2 lid & 2/3 inner lower lash line
BFTE Cosmetics: Butt Naked - Highlight
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Very Black
Milani Infinite Liquid Eye Liner: 05 Everlast - liner & wing
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline

Turquoise Sparkles, how beautiful are you?!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you all are having a very happy holiday season! I would have really loved to have done a giveaway for all you beautiful beasties out there, but I'm struggling just to keep my home right now. It'll just have to wait till we are back on our feet. We have sacrifcied everything from Christmas to my medication just to stay afloat. Its a tough road don't get me wrong. I know we have ALL shared times of struggle, but things DO get better if we just hang in there. I am so thankful for many things. I just want to say how much I appreciate each and everyone of you who take the time out of your day to spend some time with me. I love you all! Here's hoping nothing but wonderful things for you and your loved ones in the new year! Cheers!

EOTD 05.25.11

Today I wanted to try out my Brazen pigments today.  I got the LE Spring Lovelies collection. It comes with a purple shade, blue shade and a light lime green shade.

I used:

Too Face Shadow Insurance
Nyx jumbo pencil- Milk
Brazen- Visionary - all over lid
Brazen Clarity- crease
Face Candy Couture- Carnival- Outer V
BFTE- Crystal- inner corners/tear duct area
BFTE Butt Naked- Highlight

Just a quickie today guys. I really thought this was too bright when I first put it on, but when I got home and checked myself in the mirror, It had grown on me. I was in love with this look. It was so pretty and pastel and it ended up being the perfect spice of color to add to this grey & wet Seattle day.

So hows the weather in your necks of the woods? Anyone ready for summer yet? *grins*

**EDIT** In my blaze to get this posted quickly I seem to have forgotten to thank Christa @ Play Hard Look Fabulous for hosting the giveaway in which I won these pretties. SO sorry!! Thank you hunnie! You are amazing!
