Nail Art!

Some nail artsiness!  Fingers done with Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Blue Me Away!  and White On.

Toes done in E.L.F. Pearl as a background color with NYX skinny nailpolishes for detail in black and silver.

Greenest of Greens!

 Did I fluff my hair up?  No indeed.  This is just how it looks most of the time.  If I'm lucky.

So I just found this in my camera, can't remember when I wore this - it is SO GREEN.  I mean, it's not that green, but for me this is SO GREEN.


Now that the picture is all small on my computer screen though, it doesn't seem too bad.  Thoughts?







I can only assume this is one of the few times I was wearing mascara because my lashes look super long :)  Mysterious green makeup day must be solved.

The Daily Grind

Day in, day out, my look can best be summarized as...my Default.
I've been doing this thing lately where I actually spend time studying, so I don't linger so much over my makeup...despite using the same shades for about two weeks, there hasn't been much of a decrease in my eyeshadows.
I'll just have to keep using them til they finally disappear!

Homemade Beauty Goodies

Is this an obscene photo?  No indeed, it's my homemade lotion! 
So my dad orders tons of beeswax for his metal working dealies, so I decided it'd be awesome if I nabbed some and tried to make my own beauty goods!
So here are some of the results: two different colored lip balms (which I love incidentally), and a runny lotion.
The lotion was creamy when I made it originally - at home, in a cold environment.  When I brought the bottle back to school however, it became a much more gooey liquidy consistency. 
Conclusion?  Lotion making will require more practice, but lip balm is full of win.  The hyper-moisturizing nature of both of these seem to be working great with my oh-so touchy skin, so I'll probably try to refine my recipe over the summer.

Month of absence

Well I've been missing for quite a while.  Between final projects, exams, health issues, and insane pedestrians, I have just been too stressed to really bother with this.  It will definitely pick up over winter break, but until then, the blog will have to endure my absence.  Oh the horror!

Have a fantastic December everyone!

Teal Dream

 So this Teal Dream pallet from ELF is really nice....I like the blue color, it's kind of glimmery gold and stuff. 
The green is really nice too, but yeah.  This is the most color I've worn in awhile, so I'm kind of nervous about wearing it.

You can see the two tones in this picture here, the green is on the inner have of my eyelid and the blue on the outer half and tried to blend the middle part. 
You can also see my Nyx Diamond Sparkle lipstick in Nude here and it looks great :D  Typically does not look so glossy in real life, but it made for a really nice picture.

So here's my product list for the look:
ELF Eyebrow kit in Dark
ELF Eyeshadow quad in Teal Dream
Lancome eyeliner in Coffee
ELF Shimmer eyeliner in green and teal
Maybelline The Colossal Volum' Express
Nyx Diamond Sparkle lipstick in Nude

Rocker pallet

 This is me wearing my new ELF Rocker pallet eyeshadow (it came in with my Cranberry nailpolish a little while ago, I've been enjoying all the new goodies).
So this is definitely my new favorite pallet.  The purple is such a pretty color and it doesn't end up as some washed out lavender (as I expected).  Of course you can't see the purple in this picture, but yeah.

 So now you can see it here.  I also used the elf shimmer pallet blue shade to overlay the purple today to add a little extra shimmer to it.  Now that you can't see in this picture, but I'm just psyched the purple shows.  I'm usually so mild with my colors.  Ohwells.

So right to left are the colors.  Silver highlighter, a beige-y gold base color (it kind of just blended into the skin color on my hand, sorry about that), then purple, and then the black color.  Shimmery black is good eyeling :) yes it is.







So I scrapped the Avon idea.  I'm really an ELF girl through and through anyways, and I don't have the money to burn to just get an inventory.  Where would I keep it anyways?  My room is packed solid with utter crap.  Ohwells.  No money for me :( 
Emma Frost costume fell through too, but that was kind of a stretch anyways.  Will work on it this break with mom :D mwaha
