<span style="font-size: x-large;">Calling all nail polish fanatics! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I was sitting around interwebs and my bestie sent me a link to another blog where this girl had her dad build her a nail polish rack. For months and months I had been looking for a rack that I could hang on the wall. To no avail, did I find one I would like. I would find a nice acrylic one, but it would be way pricy. I would also find dinky wall hanging displays, but they just were not meant for volume. One day I saw one in a catalog from one of my vendors I buy from at work. They had one that was really not meant for a wall, but I figured at the time it was better then nothing. It was a graduated, kind of stair step design. I put it together and it was ok for a while, but it soon was over flowing, and was too bulky to sit on top of ANYTHING!! I did do a previous blog entry showing pictures of it, Here is the <a href="http://zombies8herbrain.blogspot.com/2012/02/nail-polish-storage-solution.html" target="_blank">LINK</a> to that entry. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Well after seeing what this girls dad built for her, I figured my brother, being as handy as he is, could build one better. The original one was built with wood, that over time could start to splinter and bow. Mine is made from something else but I cant <span style="font-size: large;">think of what its called. </span>I bought all the materials which was less then $35 bucks including the pricy paint. I think my finished product came out WAY better, so here are the pictures of what I have now! Enjoy :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This was what it looked like before I painted it. Sorry for picture quality (cell phone picture). I was so sad knowing I was going to have to wait longer<span style="font-size: large;"> to get to use it, it still needed to b<span style="font-size: large;">e</span></span> painted. My brother primed it with white spray primer and I painted it with a Martha Stewart Glitter Specialty Finish paint. Pictured below:</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This is what it looked like after it was painted and hung, my brother just anchored it with some screws right into the studs of the wall. That thing can hold some serious weight and isn't going anywhere!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In the top, I store a lot of make up (mostly becuase I haven't acquired enough nail polish to fill it with JUST nail polish). This makes it easier to get to some things faster, rather then pulling out my train case and grabbing stuff from that. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This is my nail polish collection as of right now and as you can see I have room for 70+ bottles with plenty of room to go. I love being able to display my nail polish in a nicer, cuter way, less bulky too!</span></div>

Well for starters, I would like to say hello, and happy New Years to everyone! I do realize it has been a long time since seeing me around these parts, but the latter half of 2012 was less then stellar for me. Needless to say Im here now and ready to make 2013 better by far!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I first started up with Ipsy (formally known as Myglam) and Birchbox, I had every intention on doing comparison posts. Considering I have been with each company since April 2012, and never did one, my intentions have not come to fruition until now! Better late then never I say...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This month, I received both my Ipsy bag and Birchbox on the same day, and I don't know about anyone else, but it felt like christmas alllll over again!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So starting with my Birchbox, the theme of this months box was all about a new you for the new year. Kind of cliche but great none the less.</div>

</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have only tried the perfume sample so far. It smells better to me in the tube, but does not mesh well with my body chemistry and kind of turns when I wear it, most likely will be passing that on to someone else. I am always excited to receive a moisturizer sample becuase I'm constantly hunting down a better one then the last (but aren't all women ;) ). The Eyeko liner is also exciting becuase I wear liner everyday I wear make up, and if it lives up to the "user-friendly" statement, I will be very pleased. Anything that makes my life easier is welcomed, especially if it might save me some time in the morning getting ready for work. Shampoo is not usually something I like seeing in my box but seeing as how its clarifying shampoo, I might save it until its starts getting warmer, and oil and build up worsens (lovely living in the desert). And finally, the beauty extra, ugh... That is all that comes to mind. It does say that it contains acetone so its got that going for it, but I'm not giving up plain nail grade acetone for these things anytime soon. I understand the concept...but its not something I would buy. </div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">I cant complain at all. This mon<span style="font-size: small;">ths bag was great! The bag was also cute<span style="font-size: small;"> by the way... </span>First off, I love getting new brushes, and you can never h<span style="font-size: small;">ave too m<span style="font-size: small;">any. The <span style="font-size: small;">las<span style="font-size: small;">t Soho brush I <span style="font-size: small;">received<span style="font-size: small;"> was<span style="font-size: small;"> <span style="font-size: small;">one I had purchased a few <span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">months</span> <span style="font-size: small;">before getting one from i<span style="font-size: small;">psy (so I passed it on to my bestie) but it was an aw<span style="font-size: small;">esome brush <span style="font-size: small;">and I still use it quite of<span style="font-size: small;">ten. I can not wait to try this o<span style="font-size: small;">ne. I am also happy to see red<span style="font-size: small;"> nail polish, I am a fan o<span style="font-size: small;">f red<span style="font-size: small;"> (more so with lip stick but n<span style="font-size: small;">ail polish is just as nice<span style="font-size: small;"> to get). The blood orange body butter smells amazing, and already has a home <span style="font-size: small;">come <span style="font-size: small;">tuesday in my desk drawer a<span style="font-size: small;">t work<span style="font-size: small;">. The argan oil is something <span style="font-size: small;">completely <span style="font-size: small;">foreign</span> to me. I have never used anything like it but <span style="font-size: small;">upon doing a little bit of research, I found it has many uses<span style="font-size: small;">, one <span style="font-size: small;">I'm</span> interested to try is as a way to soften lashes run down and br<span style="font-size: small;">itl<span style="font-size: small;">e from mascara. Lastly we have the hair spray<span style="font-size: small;">. I have thin hair so knowing its good for all hair t<span style="font-size: small;">ypes is good. This <span style="font-size: small;">will be going in my <span style="font-size: small;">car for the "oh crap I was <span style="font-size: small;">running</span> late and forgot to sp<span style="font-size: small;">ra<span style="font-size: small;">y these pesky fly aways..." days. Thanks Ipsy!</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span> </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So overall, I think if I HAD to choose a favorite item from the two would be the Eyeko Liner. I am always striving to perfect that timeless and precise skinny line across my eye and if this can deliver, its a home run! Hope you enjoyed reading! </div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> As many of you Sugarpill freaks know, they just released their new palette, The Heart Breaker Palette, May 18th. I was pretty excited about it. I ordered mine at 12:15 am on the 18th, kind of expecting it to sell out quickly. Needless to say, I was happy with the purchase, but even MORE happy when I finally got it. No, you will not see un-boxing pics becuase that's just boring. Rather, I did some comparison shots compared to my other two Sugarpill palettes (The Cold Heart and Burning Heart palettes). SO without further adieu, let the fun begin!</span></div>

Like always, I got a free sticker with my palette as well as a sample of magentric which wont be pictured becuase I gave it away before I took pics. I really like the new stickers too!! </div>

This is a no flash picture. The colors by name are (clockwise from the top):</div>
<ul style="text-align: center;">
<li> <span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">Acidberry<span style="color: black;">-<span style="color: white;"> A super neon chartruse green matte shadow. I will say this one is my fav color in the whole palette.</span></span></span></li>
<li><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: blue;">Velocity</span>- <span style="color: white;">A deep royal blue matte shadow, reminds me of a pressed, non-sparkly version of royal sugar.</span></span></span></li>
<li><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #b6d7a8;">Mochi</span>-<span style="color: white;"> A light seafoam green with a silver sheen. I would love an old chevy painted this exact color...</span></span></span></li>
<li><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #a64d79;">2am</span>- <span style="color: white;">Light red based purple magenta with a tiny hint of blue, sparkly sheen.</span> </span></span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the next picture, I took the new Heart Breaker palette and put it next to my Cold Heart palette. I mainly did this so that everyone could compare 2am to poison plum, and velocity to afterparty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a close up of the pans with flash. This is a good picture to see the blueish sheen in the 2am and silvery sheen in the Mochi. Acidberry and Velocity appear to have some sheen, but I dont think they do, they apply very matte.</div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
One thing I did notice about this palette is that 3 out of 4 of the colors are kind of powdery upon swatching. Later, I used it for a look to put on this blog, and they applied with very little to no fallout which was good for me. I was a little worried with I saw how dusty they were. Ended up being not being a big deal... </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
AFTER I blew off the powder. My swatch was done over dry skin, no primer. Also, with no flash in natural sunlight. Even for being on dry skin, they are very pigmented and velvety. </div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lastly, this is the look I created only using colors from this palette. The colors are wonderful to work with, easy to blend and build-able. The only editing I did to this pic was a crop. Those are true to the color with a flash.</div>

Sugarpill was having a sale on the Chromalust Loose Eyeshadows and Palettes to celebrate their 2nd birthday! It was cute becuase the coupon code was "Cake". I have somewhat of an obsession with this independent indie makeup company straight outta Cali! How could I resist splurging?! I don't know becuase I couldn't LOL! I already have all the pressed shadows, BUT I am still working on my Chromalust collection. I did pick up three more and got some lashes, not to mention some more stickers. I also got a second sample of Lumi. </div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This next color is the one I was most excited about. I have been waiting forever and EVER to finally buy this color. Every time I watched/read a review, there is nothing bad to say. Its simply gorgeous!!! If you have not guessed already, I was talking about the famous GOLDILUX!! This is a high shine gold dust. The color is an amazing, lovely pigment that glitters for days! I am in love. </span></div>

This was the first time I got lashes from them. They just recently added a bunch of new lashes, so I was curious. I went with something more natural looking. Sure, I get fake lashes are far from natural, but I wanted something to enhance what I already have going. I went with the "Saint" set. They are full and fluffy. I am going to wait until I pick up some good adhesive before I try to apply them. So, what do you think?! GORG right?!</div>

Last picture is of my Lumi sample. I love how they do the samples. Despite how much might look like is in the little baggie, there's enough for more then a few applications. This is the second time I have received a sample of Lumi, so I decided to give it to my bestie. Hope she loves it as much as I love this line. I can not wait to collect all the loose shadows!! </div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I wanted to show you some things I got from Urban Decays clearance section on their website. Both products purchased were marked down beyond NOT indulging! So I did just that...with shipping included I only paid about $22 for both and it came with a cool free sample. So enjoy the pics to come...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What I purchased was the 24/7 Glide-On Pencil Duo (in Whiskey and Flipside) + The Grindhouse Sharpener and Matte eyeshadow in Chronic. The free sample I got was the Afterglow Glide-On Cheek Tint in Quickie smart card. </span></div>

The Duo pencils in Whiskey & Flipside. Whiskey is a rich, chocolate brown, and Flipside is a bright, aquamarine blue thats kind of shimmery. These pencils work great for lining your lid to add color, as a base to add color and dimension to eyeshadow, and they even work great on your waterline. </div>

My free sample was of this cream blush. Its kind of funny I got it becuase for a few weeks I was pondering the thought of a cream blush, and I had never tried one before. After opening and trying it, I was hooked. At first, I was kind of shocked to see the color and thought "Wow, what am I going to do with this <span style="color: magenta;">HOT PINK</span> blush?!" But once I tried it, its a lot more sheer. With just a dab, I applied it over my foundation the last few days, and I'm in love. I want to buy this product full size, but in a peach tone. Its super easy to blend and buildable. Definitely some good marketing UD, you got me!</div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> Today's entry is about a recent purchase I made in order to keep my
small polish collection in check. Its just the right size for what I
have, and if I get more, I just have to give older ones away to make
room for the new. There is no sense in having so much that I will never
use it all. I purchased this rack for about $30 and change, and I
really could not really see myself committing to one of those $60+ wall
racks. I love this product and I can not wait to get my desk back in my
room so it can be proudly displayed on it. I have two different angles
of the rack, and if you have any questions about colors you see, please
feel free to ask about what they were. Honestly, it would have been just
WAY too time consuming to list every single color here. Following the
pictures of the display rack, I took a picture of my latest and greatest
buys (which names I will list). Hope you enjoy and don't forget to
follow! </span></div>

1. <b>China Glaze</b> #872 in Pool Party is a HOT HOT HOT pink! I love this color, After all hot pink is my favorite color. It dries to a matte finish but with some top coat it shines for days. I adore this color and I think its a must have for all California girls :) This polishes name reminds me of an Aquabats song</div>

2. <b>Revlon </b>Top Speed #730 in Royal, I had been searching forever and ever for a royal blue nail polish that had no shimmer. I wanted for a color forms look I have been contemplating. I found this one on a fluke at rite-aid one night. So glad I found it, it dries to a perfect primary blue. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. <b>OPI</b> <b>Nicki Minaj Collection </b>#N16 in Pink Friday, I love this color. It dries to a shiny bubble-gum pink. Its adorable! What more can I say...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. <b>Essie Luxeffects </b>#954 in A Cut Above, this is a rosy pink metallic flecks. Its really cute to layer for a disco ball effect, or to top coat over color. Super cute and fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5. <b>Hard Candy Matte Top Coat </b>#324 in Matte-ly in Love. I bought this on a whim, saying if it worked, great, if not it was worth trying right?! It does work and very well. Opposed to matte finish polishes which you can not apply a top coat over (becuase that would basically defeat the purpose of matte finish polish in the first place), you can apply your polish, top coat it and then use this over the top coat so your color is protected and its matte. I have used it on many occasions and it turns out lovely every time.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Well its a new year and time for some reviews and swatches on new products. To break the ice for 2012, I am doing a short review for the Nicki Minaj Collection of OPI Nail Polishes. As of right now, I</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> only have the three solid shades. I was not really impressed too much in the glitter polishes or the shatter polish. The three shades I did buy (from Ulta) are "Pink Friday" which is a very fun bubble-gum pink, "Did it on 'em", a bright lime green, and "Fly" which is a beautiful teal. Going into the purchase, I </span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> already had my heart set on loving Pink Friday the most becuase one, I have been looking for a pink JUST LIKE THIS FOREVER. The color payoff for the amount of coats applied is what I wanted exactly. And second, becuase pink is my favorite color. After I applied two coats on my nail to swatch, I loved them all! They are very cohesive as a collection, and I can't wait to do my nails with them. They could easily all be worn at the same time! Very gorgeous 3-peice set so lets see some pics...</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hello ALL!!! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">SO recently (black friday) I ordered the Kat Von D True Romance Eyeshadow Palette in Metal Orchestra. This is the third KVD palette I have purchased. The first two were planned, this was a spontaneous splurge. This, like the other True Romance palettes, comes in a sleek black soft case adorned with super edgy fabulous artwork. Its the attention to detail that adds to the satisfaction of the purchase of this product. I bought this from sephora.com, and I got it on sale for $24. They were originally $34, and upon trying to swatch the colors, I think I know why they were on sale...</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The outside of the box has the same said artwork, and the box kind of opens like an accordion. Kind of cute little twist on just a regular box. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">SOOO now we get to the REAL fun! The colors look stunning inside the palette, I was skeptical about buying a mostly blue palette just because when I think of blue eyeshadow, my brain tends to gravitate towards those women who love to pack on the "80's whore royal blue eyeshadow". Blues done right look fantastic, but when its bad, ITS ALLL BAD!!!!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">My overall thoughts are, little less then expected but still happy with the product. All the normal pressed shadows are wonderfully pigmented and very plush.They look as gorgeous on as they do in the palette. My only disappointment was in the cream shadow (Slayer). I was hard right out of the box, and I really had to manipulate the cream to even get some on my skin. Even then, it was so cakey! Its almost impossible to work with.It would have been a beautiful color to work with had it been easier to use (or better formula). Either way, just like the other KVD palettes, its very versatile. With just one palette, you can create many day and night looks, ranging from neutral to smokey and dramatic. The possibilities really are endless. I have a lot of fun with these, and they are very much go to product for daily use. Until next time...</span> </div>zombies8herbrainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00921895084385434163noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059734537302523566.post-20111164106917836552011-11-13T12:25:00.001-08:002012-06-03T11:08:23.472-07:00Kat Von D Palettes & Swatches ::pic heavy::<div style="text-align: center;">
Back in early October, I purchased two of the Kat Von D palettes. Checking out the palettes available, I made the decision to get the Ludwig palette and True Love palette. Prior to my purchase, I did some YouTube research to kind of see what other youtubers/bloggers thought about them. There were some people that could not praise them enough! After receiving them, I now know why. When I bought them from Sephora, the True Love palette was on sale for $24 (usually it would have been $34) and I got the Ludwig palette for $34. You will get more then your moneys worth! So how about we get into some pictures!</div>

The Ludwig palette is AWESOME! There is many looks you can create with this one set, and never get bored, EVER! The colors from left to right are as follows:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<b>Lucifer</b> (rich matte black)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<b>Orbi</b> (goldish olive green shimmer)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<b>Dimebag</b> (frosty mint green shimmer)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<b>Tequila</b> (cream colored shimmer)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<b>Clay</b> (neutral very light)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<b>Downtown</b> (copper-ish tan shimmer)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<b>Baroque</b> (chocolate shimmer)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<b>Leather</b> (rich matte dark chocolate)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This swatch was done over Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion (original). For almost ALL of my swatches, I swatch over a primer. In my opinion, primer should always be a part of a good eyeshadow look. If your going to take the time to apply eyeshadow, at least get the full power and intensity out of the colors. You might also notice you have to use less product when using a good primer/base. </div>

The packaging for these palettes was super cute. They came in accordion style boxes, as pictured. Also, they came wrapped inside the box in the gray steel colored shimmery tissue paper with a KVD sticker holding it closed. The case itself it very well made and sturdy, not to mention that silky, suede feel to the outside. Inside both cases, there is a HUGE mirror (which will be missed from her new cigarette style palette cases). The designs on the outside are also very cute. </div>

On the back it says (in english and french)</div>

All the colors are very plush, smooth pressed eyesbadows. The only exception is the color Benji from the True Love palette. Upon watching videos and reading reviews, I heard a lot of people say their Benji dried out and was unusable. I have found this to be untrue or else my luck has turned around. The cream color is a little tricky to use, but it has yet to dry out and remains to be one of my fav colors from the set. It looks gorgeous as a liner of as just a shadow color alone. If I HAD to choose a favorite color from both palettes, my vote would be:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Orbi</span> from the Ludwig palette</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- It stands out so wonderfully on my blue eyes and is beautiful worn one its own. The finish is yummy for the lack of a better word.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #fff2cc;">Peanut</span> from the True Love palette</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-It is my go to high-light color. Super plush and shimmery, it makes any look stand out that much more. I love applying it to my inner eye and under my brow.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Overall, I am beyond satisfied with my purchase, the only...ONLY, complaint I think I could ever have is that the applicators that come in the palette are worthless. But then again, who ever uses applicators that come in sets unless its a full size nice brush...NO ONE!</div>

Here is a picture of my eye close up. I placed the tape at the end of my eye, lined up with the natural line on my bottom lash-line. I then applied my UDESPP on my lid, followed by a generous application of the NYX pencil in milk. I then patted the Midori on just my lid. Over that I smoothed on a layer of the Absinthe. Then from the outer corner I started to blend in the Poison Plum across my crease, followed by a light application of dollipop to blend it out to my brow. I then went in with the Bulletproof and applied that to the very corner down slightly into the midori/absinthe. I then put a tiny bit of the nyx milk under my brow/ inner corner of my eye to apply Tako under my brow and Shimmers Green in my inner corner. I applied the Orchid In Violet the blend the poison plum into the tako and blended the inner corner up just a bit. The last steps were to fill in my brows, line my eyes on my lid with the MAC Blacktrack, and line my waterline/tigh-line the top lash line with the UD pencil in zero. Last but not least, I added the lashes and blended my natural lashes in with the falsies mascara.</div>

After I finished my eyeshadow, I removed the tape and proceed with my usual face make up regimen. I start with the Revlon smoothing primer, and apply a very thin and light layer. I then follow with my foundation (revlon colorstay), stipple it on with my foundation stippling brush. After that I brush on a light layer of the blush in passionate kisses and blend some of the true match blush over for a more flushed/shimmer look. Lastly, I set the remaining spots of my foundation with the MAC studio-fix powder.</div>

As you can see in the next two pictures, I put my vampire fangs in that were used for my "Dr. Acula" costume. None of my halloween party pictures showed them off very well, so I decided to show them off here!</div>

I'm not sure how many of you readers are Dexter fans, but for the few that might be, YOUR AWESOME!! I only say that because if your a Dexter fan, you totally understood the title of my post. Dexter is a show on Showtime , its about a Blood Spatter Analyst/ Serial Killer named Dexter Morgan. While after seeing a look that inspired me, I decided to take it my own, horrific and twisted route. I named this look after the blood lust Dexter has for being a <span id="goog_1251596590"></span><a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/vigilante">Vigilante</a><span id="goog_1251596591"></span>, which he refers to as his "Dark Passenger". So, now that we are all on the same page, check it out:</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In order to create the "spatter" effect, I used a coffee straw, cut into three pieces for the three colors. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1KDyc7bG8U1Rg0s-vV7rXyMeL_6lzOKiBk6JoxEq0hz5JE4B089xePKKI_N5reZz2BlLMpp9M1KdF9lribTNq9fKrLbneErZKXrYTUzbI2UQbHXA2TEn0vJvda50I5ThNg74IulbaG8w/s1600/DSCN0573.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1KDyc7bG8U1Rg0s-vV7rXyMeL_6lzOKiBk6JoxEq0hz5JE4B089xePKKI_N5reZz2BlLMpp9M1KdF9lribTNq9fKrLbneErZKXrYTUzbI2UQbHXA2TEn0vJvda50I5ThNg74IulbaG8w/s320/DSCN0573.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After Applying the base, I used the coffee straws by dipping them into the polish, then blowing them on my nails, one color/nail at a time. For the base and the top coat, I wanted to use something more study as far as quality to retain the look as long as possible (or until I felt like taking it off), but for the spatter colors, I used inexpensive brands because they would be covered with top coat anyways. It took about 20 mins and made a giant mess (both on my hands and on the paper towels I laid down).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><u>MAKE SURE TO MESS PROOF YOUR WORKING AREA IF YOU ATTEMPT THIS EFFECT- ITS MESSY!!!!</u></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Really, I almost threw in the towel half way through because I wasn't up for cleaning up the big mess I was making. This was my first attempt with making a spatter look, and having done it once now, there are a few things I will be doing different next time to make it less messy (like tapping my fingers off and getting smaller straws). I hope you enjoyed this scary look that would be ideal for a gorey halloween look. Make sure to follow my blog! </div>

If you were in Barstow the last few nights, you would know we have been going through a HUGE thunder/lightening storm. Watching from my window, I get a glimmer of inspiration. The clouds were dark and the lightening would cut through like a warm knife to butter. The sky would light up this brilliant violent VIOLET! I loved it...so I re-created it. Im keeping this short and sweet, only one pic, so I hope you enjoy!! </div>

Today is Labor Day, so with that being said, maybe I should WORK on getting this new look posted to my blog! This look was not only posted on <a href="http://www.themakeupbee.com/user_Genevieve-J_954">The Makeup Bee</a> by me but...BUT the page from makeupbee.com was re-posted by <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sugarpillcosmetics">SUGARPILL COSMETICS on facebook</a> and, AND, also re-tweeted by <a href="http://twitter.com/#%21/sugarpillmakeup">sugarpill on twitter</a>. Thus far, that was one of the most exciting moments as far as my make-up work goes! I was super happy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_mYMm-YLX-u0t8fmUrg2l8uE91JTDxa1IqC8rpAa-eE23z-2eOzGa4TcjJaCszgeHzENV4eaRs7hpDVuMQp3zDQAGWEKt6c_uKxlhjgTtGCZa-gvTHds0uWTRCKmt0ltJf-MQGo7UOTU/s1600/DSCN0238.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_mYMm-YLX-u0t8fmUrg2l8uE91JTDxa1IqC8rpAa-eE23z-2eOzGa4TcjJaCszgeHzENV4eaRs7hpDVuMQp3zDQAGWEKt6c_uKxlhjgTtGCZa-gvTHds0uWTRCKmt0ltJf-MQGo7UOTU/s320/DSCN0238.JPG" width="320" /></a>SO today I am posting my EOTD look from Sept. 3rd 2011. I'm posting it just a few days late becuase I went with a haul blog yesterday. I wanted to spread them out a little instead of posting two posts in a day. So on saturday (9/3/11) I was about to get in the shower. Being the OCD freak I am, I needed to lay out what I was going to wear after I got out. I went with some shorts and my favorite Sublime shirt. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The bright green wording on it reminded me of one of my newest sugarpill purchases (which was still like 5 months ago). Sugarpill has this Loose Eyeshadow called "Absinthe". It's a yummy, bright, acid-ee green! It will have you seeing "Little Green Fairies" all day!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The products I used were:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion Original</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil "Milk"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil "Cottage Cheese"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-MAC Pigment "Vanilla"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-The Body Needs Pigment "Lemon-Lime"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-The Body Needs Pigment "Lemon Drop"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-Sugarpill Chromalust Loose Shadow "Absinthe"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-Sugarpill Pressed Shadow "Tako"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-MAC Fluidline "Blacktrack"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-MAC Impeccable Brow Pencil "Blonde"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-Maybelline Falsies Winged Mascara "Blackest Black" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hey zom'b lovers! This is officially my very first Haul blog post! As you could probably tell by the title, its from the <a href="http://www.makeupgeek.com/">makeup geek online store</a>. The haul contains products I got from two separate orders, just added them together becuase I was waiting to get my new camera and in the meantime I got more stuff from her store. The owner/creator, Marlena, is such (as far as I can tell from her videos) a very sweet person and she does EXCELLENT video tutorials. Everything is simple enough for even beginners to be successful in creating either gorgeous, edgy, colorful or neutral looks. So without any further adieu, lets get started!</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
The First thing I want to talk about is the brushes. She has her own line of make-up brushes. They are all very good quality brushes, very VERY reasonably priced for the product you are getting. These are the ones I got:</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
-MUG Deluxe Foundation Stippling Brush</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
-MUG Crease Brush</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
-MUG SMall Crease Brush</div>

Next we can start in with ALL the NYX products I got. I just want to mention something about the palette shown in the picture. The one I chose was very similar as far as colors to a Kat Von D palette I was looking at on Sephora's site, when I saw the NYX one I was pretty excited because I do enjoy the texture of their pressed shadows. Here is a complete list:</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
-NYX 10 Color Eyeshadow Palette "The Runway Collection" in Champagne & Caviar</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
-NYX Professional Makeup Puff</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
-NYX Pressed Shadow in Sahara</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
-NYX Pressed Shadow in High Light</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">

What is next is the Ben Nye pigments I got. I have heard a lot about their pigments so when I saw that Make-Up geek sold samples of them, I ordered a couple to try. The two I got were:</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">

Its that time of the year again, school is back in session! Exciting for me becuase I do not have to worry about classes, for now. I figured for my first "Look Blog", I would do something school appropriate. This look is complied of neutral shades, and is very wearable for school or work. Its a look that I have been trying for a couple days, and I finally think I have got it down, finally! This look would also be perfect to pair with red lips for a classic pin-up look. I hope you enjoy dolls!</div>

OKAY MUA's, I know a lot, A LOT, of us have tried and loved Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion. For most of us, its an instant hit! I know that first time I tried it, I wondered how I ever managed without it! From loving the awesome names UD uses for their products to the cutesy packing, they have been one of my favorite companies thus far. With all this said, when it comes down to the UDEPP, I have not only been let down once, but TWICE by packaging. I bought the original $18 genie bottle-esque p.p., came home and used it right away. Upon my first use, the top where the wand goes in and out snapped clean off, I was UPSET to say the least. Mostly becuase I really had no way to take it back since it had been purchased at an Ulta store 80+ miles from my house. After cooling my jets a tad bit, and coming to a realization that it was not the end of the world. I came up with a little solution to the problem, just pot the remaining product. I took an empty container that once held a sample of my FAVORITE MAC pigment of all time (helium). After washing my hands and everything I was using, I emptied the bottle as best as I could.</div>

After doing so, I had really seen how much really fit in that skinny bottle. I had also come to find out, its way easier to gauge how much I really needed to apply. I took the box it had come in, cut the words off and tapped them to the lid.</div>

A few months later, I was at said Ulta again, and had seen a "Professional Size" that came in a squeeze bottle with a lid! I was ECSTATIC! I was sooooo happy to see that Urban Decay came out with a larger size, but also that this packaging might not fail me like with my first bottle. </div>

I bought the $30 professional size and took it home and added it to my collection of primers in my case and didn't actually try it for a few weeks. When I finally did get down to using it, I removed it from the box and took the lid off and proceeded to squeeze a tiny bit on to my finger. After I did I felt something on the inside of the hand that was squeezing to find out the bottom on the tube blew out, and it was coming out from TWO ENDS! <br />

I could not believe I was having ANOTHER issue with packaging of this product. Just like the first time, I ended up potting another batch of UDEPP. </div>

Granted I STILL love the product, and still use it religiously, I have just become acustomed to the fact, that maybe this will happen again (hopefully not) but it won't be the end of the world and with the right know how, you can (Just like Tim Gunn says) MAKE IT WORK! </div>
