A Pop of Color for Work or School

There are those times where you just can't go all out with your makeup, doing smokey eyes or bold colors, be it at school, work, a meeting, whatever. Your left doing a neutral which is boring, so add a little color to it.

20's/Flyleaf Inspired look with Glamour Doll Eyes

One of my favorite eyeshadows by GDE is Big Brother and that color just screams 1920's to me for some reason. In Flyleaf's music video for Missing, the lead singer is wearing a green eyeshadow that looks a lot like Big Brother and the video is set in the 20's. This is not an exact redo of her makeup or is it how they wore it in the 20's per say, but I was definitly inspired by both. This could also be a fall look, it is similar to the green one I did before.

Cotton Candy Happiness!

I recently saw a few friends I haven't seen in years, they're 2 of the most amazing 30 year olds you could meet. I was really happy after having spent time with them and I went home and thought of this bubbly look. I've never done anything quite so pink but I really like it. I hope you all have someone, our someones, out there that make you really happy to be around and can relate to this look :)

Mini Urban Decay Haul and Review

Urban Decay is currently having a sale on a few of their items, the loose pigments, smoke out eye pencils and ultraglide lip gloss' are all $5 each so I decided to order some.

I got three pigments in:

Protest a forest grey green with multicolored sparkle

Asphyxia a bright pink with a purple sheen

Rockstar a dark purple with silver glitter and multicolored shimmers
I also bought a smoke out pencil in Maui Wowie, a dark khaki colour.

They came with a Stardust Eyeshadow sample and a primer potion sample as well.

Swatches: With Flash

Natural Light

*swatches done over Urban Decay Primer Potion*

Protest and Rockstar had 1.2 grams while Asphyxia had 1.0 gram. They come in a tube and when you unscrew the tops there is a brush attached to the end. They are very pigmented except Asphyxia needs a bit more of a build up to get as bright as it should be. The only bad thing to me is that the brushes are rather stiff and end up dropping a lot of the eyeshadow when you pull it out so there will be a mess.

Maui Wowie is exactly what I thought it would look like, perfect! It comes with 1.16 grams  and attached to the bottom is one of those sponge blenders. It's smooth but you have to press for the color to show up good.

Basically, with the loose pigments normally being $20 and the smoke out eye pencils being $14, $5 is a great price for some good makeup.
