06.10.12 EOTD Muddy Runaway Corpse


Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!


Hey guys! I was in a really awful mood this weekend. Turns out my car is broken beyond repair and its a really hard blow for us because we are a single car family, and this is the only way my husband has to get to work and for us to go anywhere really. We needed to go out quickly for some groceries (thankfully a family member is allowing us to borrow a vehicle atm) .. this weekend, so I threw this on. The full face photos really didn't turn out, but I'm sure it had mostly to do with the terrible mood I was in. So .. I apologize for that. But I really hope you guys still enjoy the look just the same! :D 


What I used:
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Muddy Waters - lid
Moi Minerals: RunAway  - crease
Coastal Scents 88 Palette (original) : Dark Brown - Outer V (&blended into the crease area)
Coastal Scents 88 Palette (original) : White - Highlight
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Corpse Candle -Highlight (sparklies) & inner corner
Moi Minerals: Zim - Lower lash line (2/3rds from outside edge)
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Black Drama
Milani Infinite Liquid Eye Liner: 05 Everlast - liner & wing
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline


Lips: Brazen : Peep Show on top of Haus of Gloi: Banana Lip Balm (I wanted Peep Show to be a bit more sheer/less sticky ) 


.... After mashing my lips together too many times my lip choice didn't really pan out ... I eventually switched to my favorite gloss which atm happens to be: Milani 3D glitzy glamour gloss in Fashion Diva (No photos of this look with this lippie though sorry!)

05.20.12 EOTD

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!

Hi there! I've been kinda lacking on showing you guys my EOTD lately. Partially because my husband just started a new job, so we are hardcore budgeting, so I'm barely leaving the house! LoL.. This means less makeup wearing and more house cleaning, haha! I'm sure we've all been here right? The other reason is that I just keep finding myself drawn to those shifting taupes and Im basically doing the same eye over and over again. SO instead of boring you with the same thing all the time. I decided I would do something different, even if it was just a midnight jaunt to Walmart.

What I used:
Moi Minerals: 2nd Chance - lid
BFTE: Starstruck - high crease area & inner lower lash line
Moi Minerals: Master of Puppets  - crease & outer lower lash line
BFTE Cosmetics: Butt Naked - Highlight
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Black Drama
Milani Infinite Liquid Eye Liner: 05 Everlast - liner & wing
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline

Lips: Philosophy angel kiss lip gloss : be sweet

gah! the flash is washing out all the rich beautiful color here, and drowning all the sparkle! I need to learn how to take better photos!






Hope everyone is doing well! I hope to be doing some more challenges and stuff just to be able to have things to post for you guys! I'm sure we've all gotten into color mantras. Doing the same look over and over again while our other colors sit around collecting dust. Today's EOTD question is :  What do you do to get yourself out of the rut and back into color inspiration town again?  Comment below and give me some ideas! Thanks!

Moi MInerals Cosmetics Swatches

Hey everybody!

Let me start out by saying I just love getting sparklies in the mail.. I checked yesterday and my order from Moi Minerals Cosmetics had arrived all the way from Canada! Yay!  I'm just doing this to show you guys the pretty colors. I haven't used them on mah face yet, so I'm not going to make this a review. However, I might give you my first impressions & descriptions of the colors.. while I'm here I might as well, no? :D (The color descriptions are mine, not from the company)

Everything swatched over ELF :P 1$ Eyelid Primer


Zim: dusty forest green with red & green sparks, Gir: Greyish/Cornflower blue, with blue,turquoise & green sparks

2nd Chance: Bronzed, liquid metal I'm going to be using this one for a steampunk inspired look! It's PERFECT! Rush: Greyple, leaning more towards purple with a bunch of multi sparks





Diego: Plummy taupe with a SUPER strong blue shift, Blades of Glory: Seafoam with a really pretty violet shift, Dirty Girl, a Greyed Brown with golden sparks

My RunAway looks VERY different than the website, this is a dusty rose/med to light brown with a baby pink shift (im pretty sure it was a darker color shifting blue on the website, its pretty , just not what I was expecting) Master of Puppets: a lovely darkened royal purple with tons of purple,teal ..multi sparks, Copper Heat: a copper liquid metal, this looks quite similar to 2nd chance in photos but IRL copper heat is MUCH more copper/orangey.

Diego is stunning. Shifting blue for you :D

Master of Puppets. Screaming with SPARKS!
 I love this song. I use it as an anthem while playing my  <3 Warlock. I think it fits perfectly. Gets me all hyped up to PvP. "Dedicated to.... How I'm killing YOU!" "Master of Puppets, I'm pulling your strings, Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams!"*evil grin*

These are the lippies I got. :( I thought Piggy would be WAY more pigmented and opaque by the swatch photos, You can see that its quite sheer in the drop down.  Chiller Attraction is pretty nice/ very pigmented and has lots of silver sparks. Mauve is a purple and shifts blue.. which is really pretty but it has a weird grainy texture and feels like its melting on your lips when you put it on.. (does that even make sense to anyone but me?)
There's definitely some must have's in here guys. :D Have you tried Moi before? Do you see anything here you like? Do you have a favorite from them I don't have yet?
