Wet n Wild came out with a palette during the holidays called I <3 Matte. I picked this palette up solely in hope that the purple in it would be decent. I could almost see the disappointment but in search of the perfect purple, I just had to try. This is the first of the new 8 style palettes that I picked up. The 8 pan palettes sell for $4.99, which makes them a pretty great value. However, half of the I <3 Matte palette is basic brown matte shades that I have from a previous Wet n Wild palette. I would have liked to see more brights instead.

It's October, which means Halloween. And for the first time ever I really don't have a costume. I honestly don't feel like spending the money on a costume, even a cheapie DIY one. Most likely I'm just going to go with some "spooky" makeup for the day. Over the next couple weeks I'll have a few creepy FOTD's for you, if you have any requests please let me know! I would love a challenge :)

Here's the first one...
Products used:
MAC Bare Study paint pot
Urban Decay Naked palette- Gunmetal
Fyrinnae Looking Glass (inner corner)
Urban Decay Polyester Bride

For the lips:
I applied chapstick (I like Carmex's new Vanilla Twist, maybe I'll write a review) and then patted on Urban Decay's Gunmetal eyeshadow. I dabbed a little of Sally Girl Glitter Gel and then applied a gray/silver glitter. For the second photo I dabbed some clear gloss over.

This is pretty pathetic but I seriously can't remember for certain what I used on this FOTD...at all. I *think* it is a Fyrinnae shade (one of the darker super shimmer ones) possibly over MAC Blacktrack paint pot but I really can't say. I do remember that I was told I looked like Snow White. I don't recall her ever wearing dark smokey makeup but I'll take it as a compliment ;)

Quick pin-up FOTD using Revlon Fire & Ice lipstick because it's a vintage shade and I'm like that ;) I have no clue what I used on my lid tbh! Seems to be UDPP + UD's Naked Palette's Virgin to highlight and Wet n Wild's Creme Brulee all over. Cheeks I think is Jane in Baby Doll. When I wear red lips I try to keep my cheeks as neutral as possible. Finished off with Milani's Brow Kit. The hairband? From $10 for $10 clearance at Claire's. Loves it!

And that concludes today's lazy-catching-up-post!

Toot-a-loo my dears!

I've been bad. Really bad. I have barely updated in months. Honestly, I got massively overwhelmed trying to keep up with the new job, family, friends and it being summer. And then when I tried to get back on track, my netbook died. Now I have a fancy new laptop (that I got lucky with and got for $100 or I wouldn't be here typing) but with the number of posts I had built up I'm a little lost. I lost track of what I had already posted and most of what I used is no longer fresh in my mind. So here's what I'm going to do. All the posts I have built up (most are FOTDs because I've been horrible at swatching polish) I'm just going to do no-frills posts. I'll write the products I remember, if you want to know something specific I'll try to recall but no promises. No other writing, just pictures until I have all my back log cleaned out.

So here is your first no-frills FOTD post.



Products used: Fyrinnae Looking Glass, Fyrinnae Bali Mynah, Make Up Forever Aqualiner #9

I have trouble sometimes with hitting my lid with my mascara brush. I've been using the Lash Blast BIG and yes, that brush is BIG.
