FOTD: Dame Edna "Wisteria trio"

I was very inspired by Temptalia's "Look -Dame Edna Wisteria Trio Eye". So i decided to recreate it. I followed her look & directions mostly, but i substituted her base (Mutiny pigment) for mine (Bell bottom blue pigment), and used a white pencil in my waterline compared to her teal liner. I wanted a more cool toned, blue, look, instead of her warm teal one. I used a light hand, compared to her obvious intense pigmented look.

The following was used:
::eyes::
Too Face Shadow Insurance
MAC Bell Bottom Blue Pigment
MAC Fineshine eyeshadow
MAC Wisteria eyeshadow
MAC Divine Night eyeshadow
Loreal Carbon Black Lineur Intense Felt tip eyeliner
Beautique Eyeliner in Black
MAC ZoomBlack Zoom lash Mascara
MAC Frost Pigment

::Face::
Bare Minerals Summer Bisque
Bare Minerals Mineral Veil
MAC Blush in Dame
Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm
MAC Marquise D' Lipstick
Benefit lipgloss in Magic

Kim Kardashian's Makeup!

I love Kim's makeup, all the time. Here is the breakdown of products used for her look for the promo shots of the 3rd season of "Keeping up with the Kardashians". Her look was done, by i guess its her new makeup artist, Troy Jensen.

Ofra Concealer Magic Roulette (blemishes)
Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil (all over face)

When i get more comfortable with taking pictures (and my skin clears up more... fingers crossed) of myself I'll start doing a FOTD. And I will make them more vibrant, smoking, and colorful!

Till next time! :)

My new HG!!

My skin has been acting up lately. Since the late November. And real bad.

I was reading lollipop26's blog and i was totally sympathizing her cause the same thing was happening to me. The same type of acne, too. But unlike her i wasn't using biotin. Mine was happening cause........... well i still can't figure it out. But anyways, i been trying EVERYTHING to get rid of it. I got Philosophy's On a clear day H2O2 and BE's Rare Minerals blemish therapy. I even tried that damn toothpaste thing and the aspirin mask. They either made it worst or did NOTHING at all. Until i stumbled upon a blog thing called "Ask Meta Filter" and they recommended Burt's Bees Blemish Stick. And i got it 3 days ago and its already making my face go back to NORMAL.

So if anyone is dealing with cystic acne, definitely give THIS a try. If this worked for me, and let me tell you i have very sensitive skin, and very acne prone skin, it WILL work for you. Well that just my opinion anyways.

Got IT!!

It came today, ladies & gents... Sephora by OPI's Metro Chic. And I love it already. As soon as it arrived i took off my existing polish and applied it! And its totally awesome. I actually went to 2 sephora's and they were both out of the color, so i had to get it online. The delay sucked, but i eventually got it. I also get to post those cute pics of your nails holding the nail polish bottle. :)

and p.s. sorry about the blurriness of the pics.
I am still trying to figure out how to take those shots...

up and running...

First post. Whew!! I have a haul coming, and some other makeup stuff.
I'm not that sure of what I'm going to be posting, but i do have my fingers crossed.

Till next time.

:)
