Silver Bells, A dramatic smokey look for the holidays!

It's 10 day's until Christmas! who's excited?? i know i am! I love this look for holiday party's and you can even use it for new years!


I used a white base then packed on a light shimmery silver, I was going to use black for the crease then i decided to use a dark blue, I used a shimmery white for the inner corner and brow highlight, i then lined my upper lash line with a black liquid liner I added a little bit of silver glitter on top of the liner to give it a little something extra

 I then used a red lipstick from Maybelinne called Red Revolution

Have a great day guys! <3's

Girls Night Out:Party Look

I LOVE this color combo! it's sooo pretty and funky!
I used my 15th anny UD palette 

 I started out with the crease and i used Junkshow which is a vibrant hot pink, On the lid i used Half Truth which is a dark purple with pink reflex, It's a beautiful color and i LOVE how pigmented and easy to blend it was, i then put a light pink in the inner corner i lined my waterline and lash line, then topped it off with mascara
 I contoured with bronzer and then added a matte hot pink blush to my cheeks
 For my lips i used a midtoned pink topped with a clear gloss,








I love how this turned out!
Stay classy!!

Chocolate & Peach smokey eye

I Love fall! i love the trees and the chill in the air I also love that you can wear more smokey eyes and it not look like it's too much. I was in my beauty room (I LOVE saying that) when i stumbled across a E.L.F palette from last Christmas, 
where i saw a lot of neutral colors, and a matte peach color really stood out to me so i decided to play around and see what i got, 
 And this is what i came up with I started out with the peach color and swept it across the lid and into the crease, this makes a base color and it also allows the other colors you put on the eye easier to blend
I started working a dark matte brown from the same E.L.F palette into the crease I was amazed at how dark and pigmented this shade was, and being matte how smoothly it blended. I took the color all the way from outer corner to inner corner I also took a little matte black and gave the dark brown a little more depth in the outer corner, Then i ran the dark brown under my lashline, i then added eyeliner and mascara to finish off the eyes

     I warmed up my face with a little bronzer then i used a matte pink blush
 I used Rimmel's Pink Chic for the lips then i topped it off with a pink gloss from Revlon
 I hope you guys have an awesome Thursday!

Stay classy!

Wow, so most of you don't know, Myself, my sister and my mom have been trying to get out of the apartment we were in, it had gone from a pretty nice place to the ghetto.. so we were blessed with a fantastic opportunity and we jumped on it, so the past couple of weeks we've been packing and moving, and today was the final day. whew, it's like a huge weight has been lifted. we are head over heels in love with our new home. it's got 4 bedrooms 2 bathrooms, the living room and dining room are wood floors and the kitchen is tile! we have a 2 car garage and a fenced in back yard, and guess what i got to turn the extra bedroom into? a beauty room! im soooo excited! a room for all my makeup,hair,perfume and other goodies, so we are extremely happy to be in our new home, and i will be posting pictures as soon as we get everything situated! <3 you all!

HALLOWEEN!

Man i was a busy bee the Saturday before Halloween,I did the makeup for 2 friends my sister and myself, whew, it was FUN though I loved EVERY second of it! I will always love the high i get from doing makeup, the most rewarding thing is making my clients happy, making them glow..

Up first was Katie! i seriously LOVE this girl. she is beautiful inside and out and i hope i get more chances to do her makeup!


I did a simple purple smokey eye with a pop of really light pink in the innercorner, I added fake lashes and mascara. i then did a tiny bit of blush and bronzer with a clear gloss
My sister did her hair, she rolled it then teased at the crown then pinned it in what i like to call a Snookie poof (lol) and Katie was done! I had so much fun on her (I call dibs on wedding makeup)
Thank you SO much Katie for giving me the opportunity to do your makeup!

Next up was my friend Veronica! I've known her for it seems like forever! she's sweet and so cute! love ya girl! now she was going to a zombie prom so i pictured in my head mix a prom queen/goth/zombie and it came out GREAT!

 I did a cut crease eye with a red lid and black cut crease, i just did the same zombie face that i did with my sister except with a different eye and not so severe undereye circles
My sister again did the hair she used hot rollers and then teased it to give it more volume, the whole look turned out great and i was super happy with it! Thanks Veronica for being awesome and letting me put a ton of crap on your face lol! love ya!


My sister is next, she was a circa 1960's playboy bunny
 So this was pretty simple to throw together, I did a skintoned matte color all over the lid then a warm brown in the crease i wanted it to be pretty dramatic so i did a cut crease and winged eyeliner, for her lips i used a warm red by Maybelline Colorsensational line but im not sure what shade it was, but any red would work, I used a good amount of a pink sparkly blush and topped it all off with super dramatic lashes
 She curled her hair with a half inch curling iron then pin curled it to her hair so it would set





 This is what it looked like all pulled together, i kept calling her Marilyn, something about the way she carried herself and of course the blond hair and red lips, made me think of her
this is my favorite picture of the night, she's with one of our good friends Amber

Last but not least is me, It took me awhile to come up with what i wanted to be, i was Snookie last year, so i wanted something more creative, i was settled on a witch until I saw a Florence and the Machine video where Florence was different kinds of birds and that's when I knew, i wanted to be a black bird
so here is what i came up with

 I did my normal foundation routine then i added bronzer to my cheeks for my eyes i took liquid eyeliner and simply started drawing lines, it was actually super easy and really cool to look at, i added fake lases and kept my eyelids and lips pretty nude
 for my hair my sister again did it, i did my hair like normal then she teased it all like crazy (this was not fun to brush out) and we added feathers

 My costume was pretty easy to come up with and cost 16 dollars, i got my black dress on clearance and the feather boa's were buy one get one free at the mall

I had so much fun that day! it was awesome, and i hope that there are many more times!

Braiinnsssssssssssssssssss (Zombie)

This was supperr creepy to do, i am not a fan of zombies but i really wanted to do it so i did,

I made her super pale mixing her foundation with a white cream makeup. then i suppeerr contoured her face and added alot of bruising around her eyes using a purple and blue eyeshadow, i used a matte brown and grey for the contouring add mascara and eyeliner if you want


she kept looking at me all creepy.. ick! lol all i did for her lips was apply the white cream foundation and put fake blood all over her mouth and down her throat, and i've learned the more random the more natural it looks




I tried to get her to take a walk around the neighborhood all casual like, but she wouldn't.. haha
I hope you guys have a spooky night!!

Next up is Marie Antoinette

Blooper!

I told her not to smile, Zombies DO not smile and she started to laugh!

Something wicked this way comes! (Witch)

So I'm pretty much in the Halloween spirit.. and thankfully in the midst of all the crazyness in my house my sister is more that happy to let me borrow her face,

this was NOT easy, omg the green was a MONSTER to blend.. but none the less here it is!


 I Blended a green cream makeup all over her face very veryyy carefully then i contoured with a grey/brown mix both matte finishes i then gave her a black smokey eye and cherry red lips i topped it off with a very red blush



she looks completely different! she had a crazy black wig from last Halloween and an old witch hat
im going to try to tackle a Zombie for the next blog post..

Have a spooky night everyone! <3
