SMOKEY LAVENDER EYELOOK FOR FAIR SKIN

SMOKEY LAVENDER EYELOOK  With such extremely fair skin, I have a hard time pulling off these colors without looking washed out. Muted antique tones look amazing on warm or dark skintone but with cool toned pink skin it's difficult to pull off. I balanced out the color with deep browns and black to make it more SMOKEY. If I had used cool tones in the crease and outer corner it would have looked like a giant bruise on my eye. The wing got away from me, I don't know what happened. Let me know in the comments below what you think, everything I use to complete this look is listed below.

PINK AND GOLD DUOCHROME GLAM

PINK AND GOLD DUOCHROME  I did this look a month ago and decided to redo it now that I had better lighting and finally figured out the settings on my camera so the duochrome could really POP.  This look is one of those where the full glam aspects of it really shine through in real life better than on camera. The light hits the duchrome in such a beautiful way and it draws all of the attention to the eyes.

WHY GETTING MY SEPTUM PIERCING WAS THE BEST THING I EVER DID FOR MY SELF ESTEEM

GETTING A SEPTUM PIERCING If I can do this, I can do anything 3 days ago (Friday) I was struck with the sudden urge to do 3 things; get my hair cut, get a tattoo, and get a septum piercing. The hair cut came Sunday, since after spending months growing out my pixie cut I was FINALLY at the length I wanted. After having it at chin length for only a week I remembered very quickly why I kept it at the length I did for so many years and chopped it back off again. I tell myself I'll grow it out eventually but this being the 3rd time I've tried and failed to grow it out in the last 6 years I'm not going to hold my breath. Secondly, the tattoo. Something I've wanted for years, something I've always found attractive on others, but for several reasons (both personal and professional) I never ended up going through with. This was not something that I wanted to rush into, so I squashed down the urge for now and am researching artists, pricing, and design so that th

FROSTY BLUE SMOKEY EYE

FROSTY BLUE SMOKEY EYE I was SO inspired by the color Axis from the Anastasia Beverly Hills Subculture palette for this look. I saw that blue and was like 'you shall be my main attraction!'. I ended up mixing a few different palettes to get this look but I LOVE how it turned out so much. I used the white highlight from the Ofra Cosmetics Beverly Hills Highlighter Wheel on the lid and it's so frosty and metallic I love it. This whole look came out so much more wearable than I was expecting, and I hope you guys like it as much as I do.

CRANBERRY SMOKEY EYE

CRANBERRY SMOKEY EYE  For this look I was playing around with my Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette. I'm not always in the mood for such romantic colors but I was filming a video and wanted something really wearable but colorful. One of my favorite shades from the palette is Vermeer which is a somehow frosty shadow that looks like pale pink snowflakes on the eye. I LOVE it.  Let me know in the comments below what you think, everything I use to complete this look is listed below.

GOLD GLITTER GLAM

GOLD GLITTER GLAM Alliteration is apparently my strong suit. For this look I wanted to use neutral tones but give it some kind of POP to make it glamorous and bold. So I went with some loose glitter from NYX to really make the lid stand out. This is the first look I've photographed with my NEW SOFTBOXES! *Thunderous applause* I cannot tell you how excited I was to get new lighting, and it's amazing. It illuminates  everything so clearly and makes my pictures come out so clear! All my photos are going to be jumping up in quality and I'm so thrilled about it!  Let me know in the comments below what you think, everything I use to complete this look is listed below.
