Done Up - Eye of the Day

Hello beautyistas!
I have a little eye of the day that I did today. Simple bronzey eye makeup, bronze and gold looks are some of my favorites to do!






Products used:



Urban Decay Primer Potion 
Stila Acapulco trio, the outer color all over my lid
Urban Decay Half Baked all over the Stila shade
Urban Decay Smog in the outer corner
ELF Cream Eyeliner in brown on upper lashline
Colossal on my upper lashes (one coat)
NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Yogurt as a base on my lower lashline
Urban Decay Smog all over the Yogurt
Urban Decay Half Baked in the inner corner of my lower lashline, about 1/3 of my lower lashline has that over Smog
Urban Decay Whiskey in the outer corner of my bottom rim of my eye 


That's it! 
Sorry I didn't take a full face picture, it just slipped my mind. 

Today was the sister's birthday and we had a little party, it was fun. Lily got to come over and we hung out for a bit. We went through old yearbooks and laughed so hard! Yearbook photos are just NOT a good representation of how one actually looks. I got to drive for the first time in 2 weeks today, did a pretty good job, if I do say so myself.. And I am! 
I have a couple of things that I purchased yesterday (mom purchased for me...), I'm going to take photos and put them up probably Sunday or Monday. I didn't get much, only one clothing item, and it was pajamas!

Blue and Stars + Eye of the Day

Hello fashionistas!
I wanted to show you want I wore in honor of 4th of July.
We did a little BBQ action, but I skipped on fireworks because they are not my favorite thing. 
I'm probably one of the few people who aren't fond of them! 
Shirt: Liz Clairborne  Star top: Belk Shorts: Dockers (bought at Bealls) Watch: Avenues Shoes: Aerosoles Sunglasses:



I finally realized that I need to set my camera on macro mode to pick up makeup well, I used macro on all of these. The only thing I do not like about macro is that it makes me look so pale! 
Anyways, here's my patriotic eye makeup!



Urban Decay Primer Potion
NYX Yogurt pencil as a base on my lower lash line
Stila's Stone eyeshadow all over and in the middle of my lower lash line
Stila's Smog in the crease
Sleek original I-Divine palette dark, shimmery blue in the crease, and all over the bottom lash line
Urban Decay's Virgin in the inner corner, bottom inner corner, and highlight
ELF Studio Cream liner on my upper lash line
Urban Decay's Creep over the ELF Studio Cream liner
Rimmel London 1-2-3 mascara on upper lashes
Covergirl waterproof LashBlast mascara on lower lashes

This showed up a little bit more silver than blue, don't worry it was definitely blue! 


How'd you guys spend your 4th of July?

Sadly next week I have a biology test, so this weekend I'll be studying (weekend.... only 4 days away). Friday I have a geometry test that I have to do well on... I have a lot of studying to do for that! 

Enough of my ramblings!

I hope you guys have a great week, I'll post soon!

December Favorites



Hey fashionistas!
I decided that it was about time to do my December favorites, kind of sad this is my last favorites of 2010.

Anyways, on to my favorites. Not too many things this month, kind of stuck with the same stuff. When I was sick I didn't wear any makeup so, not a whole lot of variety.

L-R
Essence blush in 01 'Almost Famous' ♥
Wet n' Wild 'Vanity' palette ♥
Urban Decay 'Baked' pigment ♥
NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil 'Yogurt' ♥
Maybelline Dream Mouse Concealer 'Ivory' ♥

The blush is a peachy pink with subtle shimmer, it's quite a nice flush of color for the cheeks.

Ever since I bought the Wet n' Wild Vanity palette in the beginning of December I've been using it nonstop! The pigmentation is amazing, and all the colors work really well together. My favorites are the 2 top ones on the left side and the bottom one of the right side.

The Urban Decay pigment is a nice bit of shimmer for the eyes. My only complaint is that it is kind of messy.

The NYX pencil is not only a great base but, I also love putting it in the inner corner of my eye for an eye brightener.

I didn't love the concealer at first, but now I really like it. It works quite well to cover blemishes and under eye circles.

Secret Scent Expressions deodorant 'Cocoa Butter Kiss' ♥
Triple Body Cream 'Japanese Cherry Blossom♥

I know what you're thinking "deodorant?" but, yes deodorant! I had started using Secret with Olay in it a couple of months ago but when I went to repurchase it it was gone! They stopped selling it, major bummer. It lasted all day, so I switched to just original scent and I didn't love it but the other day I was out and my mom picked this up and I love it! It lasts literally all day and smells really good! Seriously if you are in need of a new deodorant you should pick this up.

The triple body creams are perfect for the winter months when your skin tends to get dry. I picked this up mid-December and I've been using this one more than the other scents. Every time I put this on my mom goes "you smell really good. What are you wearing?" and it has been this every time!


Well that's all for my favorites for December.

Thanks for following and commenting!

Once I get to 200 followers I'm going to hold another giveaway.

Oh and this is a scheduled post, so when you read this I'll be studying for my biology test!

Veterans Day Haul






Hello fashionistas!

I just thought I would share what I bought today (and my mom bought for me).

Ross
It's a Jessica Simpson bag and I'm in LOVE with it. This is one of my birthday presents, I told my mom to hold on to it until my birthday. First I had to share it with you guys!

Here's it with the long strap.


Ross
This was from New York and Company (which I love that store).

At Costco I also picked up a pair of dark jeggings (which surprisingly look nice on) and a pair of jeans. Nothing super special. So I didn't picture these.


Ulta
This is in the shade 'Almost Famous'.

Just In Case
By the way sorry for the poor phone pictures, my other camera was dead and I couldn't find any batteries.


NYX- Yogurt

At my ULTA there was a 2 for $10 going on select OPI polishes.
These are the two I chose.


*Image take from Google Images

This is 'Cajun Shrimp'



* Image taken from Google Images

This is Charged Up Cherry



That's all for now because I am off to work on my science fair board and journal. The whole thing is due on Monday. My partner is doing the conclusion and the research paper.

Hope you all have a great weekend! I'm so happy that it's Friday!

Outfit of the Day

Hey chickadees(:

Here is what I wore today, I tried to do a close up of my eye but the colors wouldn't show up on camera so I'm not going to put it in.








Dress: Ross
Cardigan: Ross
Shoes: Aerosoles from Ross
Bracelets: Forever 21
Hair clip: Target

My face is basically what I use on a daily basis so I'm not going to put it unless you want to know, then put it in the comments below!

On my eyes: Base Victoria Secret's creme shadow (and on a third of my lower lashline). LA Colors (12 thing I picked up at the Dollar Genral)
Victoria Secrets light purple shadow and a NYX purpley with gold glitter (barely noticeable) color from the palette I bought at Ulta in my crease. E.L.F. plum eyeliner with the LA color white shadow on top of it. Full n' Soft and Falsies on my top lashes. The same NYX color on my lower lashline.

Today I finished my first pinch pot in pottery and I will be painting it next week. I have a French, Geometry, and Biology quiz tomorrow. So off to study and do my geometry homework.

Mini ULTA Haul

Hey girlies as promised here is my mini (under 20 bucks!) ULTA haul.



1.) Essence eyeshadow palette- $2.99
2.) Sally Hansen Hard as Nails polish in 'Dahlia'- $2.29
3.) NYX Runway Collection palette in 'Secret World'- $9.99





Swatches are in the same order as in the palette. The 3rd color is actually a little more pigmented then pictured. I have not used these yet, but I am looking forward to (and really you can't beat $2.99!).




This is the NYX palette in 'Secret World'.


These are swatches of the top row.


And these are swatches of the bottom row.

This is the look I created today using the first 4 colors from the top row.


It reminds me a lot of a sunset. I thought they NYX shadows were incredibly pigmented and I will be buying another of these palettes (they had like 6 or so different ones).

Until next time(:
