Trying to remember what I used...

Urban Decay Deluxe eyeshadow in Zero

5 minutes to create an EOTD? Here's one of my favorite quick looks and way to wear sheerer shades.

UDPP

MAC Blacktrack paint pot on lid, blended out

Fyrinnae Anemone over blacktrack

Wet n Wild Brulee for highlight

L'oreal Telescopic liquid liner

L'oreal One Million Lashes mascara

Anemone is an absolutely freaking gorgeous color but for me it's a little sheer and hard for me to work into a FOTD, but over black it brings out all those gorgeous shifts in the color (Rapunzel Had Extensions is another favorite for this). The reason I really love to do this kind of look is it's not neutral, it works for day or night, you can drop the liner and even the highlight if you must.

What is your go to quick FOTD?

Done using a random pigment received in a swap only known as Psyche. I can't seem to find where it came from but it's a beautiful dark silver. If anyone has any idea what this product is please let me know!

EOTD? Okay not really, but I'm not sure what else to call it?

Sometimes when I'm bored I like to play with my makeup- experiment with different ways of shading, colors, contouring, shapes and all that good stuff. Typically I don't intend to leave the house with this makeup on and I usually end up doing two different things on each side of my face. Today's post is one of those, I'll post the other half tomorrow but today I offer you this:

Products Used:

MAC Painterly Paint Pot

Wet n Wild Brulee eyeshadow (highlight)

Milani Melange marbleized shadow (inner corner- swatches coming soon)

Fyrinnae Shrouded in Gold (middle lid- I think this may be DC?)

Fyrinnae Polar Bear- (outer corner)

Maybelline ultra liner waterproof

Lash blast mascara

Covergirl natureluxe liquid silk foundation in alabastar

Mary Kay mineral powder foundation in Ivory 1

NYC Mosaic bronzing powder in Heart of Gold

I realized it had been a while since I had worn a simple silver smoky eye. I recently have been trying more drug store products and the only thing in this entire FOTD that isn't drug store is my primer- MAC Painterly Paint Pot.

*I decided to give these another try despite harsh memories of greasy mess all over my lids from the first time I used on back when I was what? 16? I have to say I was happier with this than I thought I would be.

It doesn't have as harsh a tingling cooling effect as I remember and it managed to not crease after a couple of hours wear without a base when I tested it- so I was pretty impressed. I wore it as a base color to amplify my black shadow. When I got home 10 hours later from my errands and looked in the mirror it hadn't creased. It had however bled above the crease (and by bled I mean like when pencil liner does this and creates a weird arch over your crease, I've been trying to think of an easier way to explain this- do you gals know what I mean?) but it was easy to smudge with just light strokes of my fingertip to blend it. I'll fill you in as I test these more but I just wanted to put my thought on them down!

I was asked by a friend to do makeup for her and a few other people and two of the costumes were a devil and gypsy. I decided to play around and do a "practice" run and this is what I came up with.

Devil...

She suggested flames but I find things like that hard to work into something flattering so I took the idea and played with it. When I did her actual makeup I brought the point up to almost her brow and a little bit sharper. I also added red glitter lightly to the outer corner. And false lashes of course! For this I used my Manly 120 palette.

Gypsy...

I went with a simple smoky eye and for that extra Halloween glam I added some holo glitter. And once again, of course fake lashes! For this I used some Fyrinnae shades and the glitter is from Fantasy Makers.

For a night out I decided I wanted a smoky eye but with a pop of color. While my hair is blonde for the moment (with a little bit of pink here and there) I am taking advantage of my ability to wear pink without clashing.
