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!

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. ;-)

Lime Love!

Last week, I tried out a new (not very new, but new to my collection) Mary Kay Mineral Eye Color called Lime right? well, i totally fell in love with it! it's one of the fall favs and it can be (and has been) used to brighten up an eye or two... well, last week, instead of just putting a dab here or there, i totally made it the center of attention!

BOOM! lol

And what better way to showcase my appreciation for the use of a brighter color in the fall than to Step-By-Step it on up!....

it's pretty self-explanatory... it goes left to right from top to bottom (obviously) and the colors used are Lime, Espresso, Amber Blaze (over the top of those) , Honey Spice (at brow bone), a look at the blending, Jet Black Gel Liner and Ultimate Mascara.... BOOYAH!

Warming up a Smokey Eye...

First of all, i wanna say that this title has got me singing "Warm it up chris! i'm about to! warm it up chris! cuz that's what i was born to do!" (don't judge me)
Anyhoo, today i decided to keep with these fall-themed colors and add some fall warmth to an otherwise cool smokey eye....

Starting with a primed eye, i add Mary Kay Mineral Eye Color in Midnight Star... It's dark but not super dark and it has a fun shimmer. Next i added Sweet Plum (remember that on the list of fall favs?... well.. it was there). Blend the Sweet Plum into the Midnight Star and up toward the brow. Next it's Amber Blaze at the inner corner! (another fall-fav). it totally warms up this smokey eye. now it's just a bit more fun.. and hot! hahahaha! *clears throat* I like to use Silky Caramel from the Sweet Plum to the  outer brow. it softens the line of color and it's less of a highlight and more of a filler color... it's there but not there. From there, it's gel liner (my love), Ultimate Mascara, Foundation, a Mineral Cheek Color called Golden Copper to play into the Amber Blaze warmth (i'm gonna fire the word warm after this post btw) and on the lips?.. Creme Lipstick in Fuchsia! BOOM!

...CLOSE UP OF THE EYE.. fun right?

...Collage fun with photos of the products used

And some fun art by my bestest Joshikins!

The New Love Of My Life...

so... about a year ago, i decided to try out a gel pot eyeliner from a drugstore because i wanted the look of a liquid liner with the ease of application of a pencil. and i immediately fell in love! so of course it was like the worst day ever when i lost it somewhere in my car and couldn't find it for shit. (yes, my car is a cluttered mess. i have 3 kids and spend 80% of the day in it.. don't u judge me) anyhoo, this season (like all seasons) Mary Kay came out with some limited edition products that were fantastic...

it's called the Hollywood Mystique Collection and it's full of super glam products...including a gel liner!!!!!

Well, of course i bought it! and it's AMAZING!!! the gel has a creamy texture, it goes on really smooth, it lasts for forever and ever, it's EVERYTHING i need it to be! plus it comes with a cute little expandable brush! i'm so excited about it, i had to give it it's own post so... yea, that's what this is. lol!
This gel liner also comes in Tempting Teal and that's super yummy... i'll have a look or 2 to post using that color soon!
