Monday Fun Day?.... Yes Please!

So we all know that Monday was invented to make sure that members of the workforce had something to genuinely hate every week... but just because we absolutely despise this day and everything that comes with it, doesn't mean that we can't Dazzle the shit out of our fellow worker bees. ;-)
And what's my favorite way to add Razzle-Dazzle to the day??? MAKEUP!!! lol!
(just the word brings joy to my life)

Anyhoo... today I actually took pictures AND did a step-by-step of my makeup so i shall share in 3, 2,......

Here are the steps to the look (the ones i took, anayway) and u may notice that there are a few more steps than the average look... don't be afraid.

First off, know that this look was created with the BH Cosmetics Party Girl Palette

1. is the green located on the bottom row, fourth from the right. 2. fuchsia pink located on the second row from the bottom and second color from the left. 3. use the purple located on the second row from the top and fifth from the left on a smudger brush to blend the green and fuchsia. 4. add the black, located on the second row from the bottom and third color from the right, to the outer corner. 5. use the smudger brush to blend the black and fuchsia and then to bring the black into the crease. 6. sweep the gold located on the top row and fourth from the left across the top of the crease and blend with the shadow on the lid....

7. i used Prestige Total Intensity Eyeliner in Daring Green along 3/4 of my lower lash line. 8. i lined the remaining space on my lower lash line with Wet 'n' Wild Coloricon Pencil in Turquoise. 9. u sed a smudger brush lightly dipped in the same gold from step #6 to smudge/ blend the liners. 10. i highlighted my browbone with the color located on the top row, third from the left. and added some white eyeliner on my water line and Mary Kay Ultimate Mascara on my lower lashes. 11. I used <ary Kay Limited Edition Gel Liner on my lids. 12. Lashes on, and i'm done!

BOOM!!!!!!!!

Ok, I know what you're thinking.... well, ok, i don't. I'm assuming that you're thinking that this look is pretty heavy for a monday... but it's not! it's fun and eye-catching and shows everyone that u are ready for the day... even if deep down you're planning to only pretend to do work at your desk for as long as possible. HA!

So try it, enjoy it and send me pics if u like!

Brows Anyone?

So.... i get complimented on my brows pretty often.. about as often as i get complimented on my makeup in general. so i FINALLY decided to to a little step-by-step of how i draw these bad mamma jammas. lol! anyhoo.. i've used a lot of different techniques over time but this way is the best way to get some neat and, from someone else's mouth not mine, "crisp" brows...

the first box on the right is just my brow so u can see what they look like bare... they're there, but they aren't anything special... at all.

1. take a brow pencil and start at the top of where u want your arch to peek and bring it down to where u want ur brow to end

2. take that same pencil at the inner corner of the top of your brow and meet up at the peek of your arch... ps: this is where u can get creative and make some crazy high arches happen if u want.

3. make another line at the bottom of your brow and bring it into the bottom of ur arch. if u have no brows or super thin brows, take the pencil down to meet up with the outer corner so you have some good shape going.

4. color it in. ha!

5. take a spiral brush (holding it sideways like so ^^^) and brush the brows so they look a bit softer... i brush to the side, following the direction of my brows

6. and then it looks like that ^^^

7. use a concealer or foundation that's a shade or 2 lighter than your skin to outline the brows (it makes the pop more if you use a lighter color... but if ur not wearing any other makeup... go with your skin color cuz nobody wants to look crazy)

8. blend it out! i use my ring finger to blend from my brow outward

and there you have it folks! it's simple but makes a big difference in the way your face looks! try it and enjoy! ;-)

Can't Get Enough!!!

I know! I know!... Everyone and their grandma (including myself) have been so serious about fall colors and whatnot, but I just can't get enough of Mary Kay Mineral Eye Color Peacock Blue!!! I swear, this color is good for any weather... but it got a little cold and rainy these past few days and... i'm not gonna lie... I got the urge to go blue. It's such a true color! (i can't describe it any other way) it's loud and you can build it to be as intense as you want/need it to be... Can we say PERFECT?! Ok, now that i've made everyone uncomfortable with that little rant... let's take a look at today's Peacock Blue and the steps I took to make this look happen:

Starting off with the Peacock Blue on the Lid (Tell me this
color isn't ridiculously amazing!... oh wait.... u can't!)

Next is using a tapered blender brush to add Black Pearl to
the lower lash line and out (however far u desire) toward
the brow bone and then back in

BLEND!... i took a short haired blender brush and dipped it
into Silky Caramel, shook off the excess, and used that to
soften & blend the Black Pearl out toward the brow as well
as blending the Peacock Blue and Black Pearl together. 

Liner!.. I used the Mary Kay Limited Edition Gel Liner and
brush to line my lid... I'm really into extreme winged liner
right now, if you're not trying to go that far, then simply
don't ;-)

Lashes!!! I use Kiss Lashes #05 (they r my favorite right
now) but you can use any lashes you like as well as opting
to rock your naturals with some..oh idk.. Mary Kay Ultimate Mascara?
;-)

What's a great eye look without a little photo grid action?

So there you have it!!! It's actually a very simple process to get some extra Razzle-Dazzle and fun onto those peepers of yours. I'm such a huge fan of this blue, that I'm recommending that EVERYONE make it a part of their makeup collection! MUAs and simple Dazzlers alike. ;-)
