EOTD 03.04.11

Hey there. I just wanted to share my pin-uppie type look for today. I wanted something neutral and pretty to go with my bold red lippie and this seemed to work really well. I absolutely ADORE this palette. It came out this winter with a few other palettes and the pigmentation and smoothness of the shadows I have been getting from them lately have made me fall in love with Wet n Wild all over again.

I used the lightest cream shade (located in the upper left) for all over the lid & packed on under the brow for the high light. I blended the medium golden brown shade (located middle right) from the outer corner lid to the inner 2/3. The crease color was the darkest shade in the palette (located at the bottom right) and I blended that into the crease and up to the highlight shade. Used a dark winged liner for this and I think it turned out pretty great for a nice brown smokey eye.

A brief review of Wet n Wild in general: 
In revamping their formulas, and updating their image, they aren't just affordable, they are holding their own to MUCH more expensive companies out there. Not everything is a WIN, per se,  but certainly more now than ever! During these rough financial times, that is something I for one can be grateful for! I hate the stigma that you have to spend a small (or large one for that matter) fortune to get good quality, high pigmented makeup that does what it claims to do.

Happy Birthday To Me!

Well.. my *garbled/muffled age* birthday just came to an end. Thanks so much to my family who made it so nice! I just got done playing DJ Hero 2 (I got the first one on my last birthday) and its just as much fun as the first one, if not more so. I love that you have a lot more ability to mix things yourself. But I still think it's missing a "create your own DJ" feature as well as I don't like that they pulled back on the ability to customize your tables as much. Thanks mucho to my hubby who got it for me.

We went out to dinner (yummy Italian food), and I was in a hurry to get out the door. Did a really super fast EOTBD (eye of the birth-day! lol) today. Here I've used Face Candy Couture shadow in Seed all over the eyelid and as under eyeliner and then added the darkest shade of brown from the Wet'nWild Golden Goddess palette in a "c" shape in the outer corner & in the crease. The lightest cream/off white shade from this palette was also used as the highlight.

Happy Birthday to me!

EOTD 12.15.10

I just wanted to share with you all today my eye of the day. I was actually one of the lucky ones who found all 4 of the WetnWild holiday palettes not only all in the same place, but I actually got them B1G1 50% off. I was grinning from ear to ear as me and the hubby stepped up to the check out. So, I was thinking of a few looks on how to use these newly found pretties and today I was going for a shimmery brownish fall look incorporating a modern twist by integrating some pretty pink into it as well. I really adore how these compliment each other in such an interesting way, don't you?
