March Green FOTD

St. Paddy's Day is just around the corner and also is Spring.  I wanted to do something different from my normal neutral color routine, so I opted for Green!  

March Green FOTD

eyes closed ~
with the glasses ~

What I used:

Face: My Normal Routine, MAC So Ceylon MSF, NARS Amour blush
Eyes: MAC eyeshadow in Scrumptious Olive, Urban Decay NYC palette: Loaded and Kush, MAC Undercurrent and I get no kick liner, MAC Studio Fix mascara.
Lips: (not shown) Victoria's Secret Sheer Gloss Stick in Shy.


I rarely use bright green colors as I really have no where to wear them. I used a brighter green for the all over lid part of they eyelid then muted it some with a olive and darker green.  I know my eyebrows are messed up, I didn't have the time to fix them and now letting them grow more to fix it.  Other than that I think the color green is fun and vibrant, I just have to wear it more often!


Do you wear GREEN eyeshadow on a regular basis?

Valentine's Day Look

Here's a quick Valentine's Day Look that I did over the weekend!  The look is very simple, using just a few products and easy.

Valentine's Day is Almost Here!



Products used:
(sorry no pictures, I forgot)

Face: Neutrogena concealer, Smashbox Halo powder, MAC Tenderling and Peaches blush, Dior Blush
Lips: NYX lipstick in Pumpkin
Eyes: MAC Bare Study paint pot, Urban Decay NYC palette (Bordello, Last Call, Rockstar), MAC eyeshadow in Sketch and Shroom.  Urban Decay 24/7 Ransom liner, Essence brow powder, Shisem lashes, MAC Studio Fix mascara.

I love purples! I thought it would be a appropriate for Valentine's Day to do a more dramatic purple look instead of the normal pinks and reds.  This eye look is more towards creating a outer v with the purples and leaving the inner eyes goldish and brightening.  I lined the eyes with a purple eyeliner to give the eyes a nice pop to them!  With dramatic eyes, I left everything on my face a bit more neutral.  I used my blushes to contour my cheekbones and lightly dusted my cheeks.  For the lips I kept it on the neutral side and chose a more soft pink lipstick.

Let me know if you have any questions! Feel free to ask!
