Thursday's UD Look....Dramatic PINKS and a new Foundation.....

This was my FAVE look of this week!

My foundation is different too.  I bought a small Sephora haul this week, but this was prior to that.  I had a sample of Too Faced Amazing Face SPF 15 Powder foundation that I hadn't tried yet, and used it on this day.  I'm planning a comparison post to compare it to NARS powder foundation.

Eyes:

UDPP in Eden
Indelible Cream Shadow in Bare Necessity on browbone
Indelible Cream Shadow in Carbon on lid
UD Blackout on lid
UD Vanilla on browbone
UD 24/7 liquid liner in Perversion
UD Junkshow in crease
ELF Volumizing/Lengthening Mascara

Face:

Hourglass Mineral Infused Primer
Meow Equilibrium Powder
Too Faced Amazing Face Powder foundation in Warm Vanilla
MAC Dame Blush

Lips:

Shiseido Lipstick in Almond Pink
Shiseido Gloss in Cafe Creme

I got lots of complements this day on my makeup and my hair which was funny...I've been debating on going a little darker again, and asked about 10 people if I should and to a person they said "NO STAY BLONDE!!"  I even got some extra complements from people who I didn't ask that volunteered that I should remain blonde.  SO Blonde it is for awhile I guess!!! LOL.....

Be sure to look for my haul post from Sephora as well as my foundation comparisons!  I'm going to try to get them up by tomorrow but it may have to wait for next week.  Have a FABULOUS SATURDAY!!!

Makeup Looks Theme of the Week.....Christmas in July!!! Sugar Plum Fairy

So all the Christmas in July sales have inspired me....I'm going to start setting a weekly theme for my looks each week, and the first one is Christmas in July!

I  managed to get in on two Christmas in July events.  First off I got six of the Limited Edition Christmas shadows from Meow Cosmetics that I wanted to get this past Holiday Season but was unable to.  Then I placed my first order at Spectrum Cosmetics!  I just happened on the site when searching Etsy, and she was having a Christmas in July sale that I took advantage of.  I got a set of 10 3 g eyeshadow jars (your choice!) as well as 4 seperate jars for other shadows in the same size.  She also carries 5 g jars.  She has some GREAT irridescent shadows that I can't wait to try and to review....the pictures of them over a deep black base are GORGEOUS!

On to my first look this week.....in honor of these shadows that I purchased from Meow, the first look is a sugar plum fairy look.  :D

Eyes:

TFSI all over eye area
ELF cream eyeliner in ivory on browbone
Indelible gel liner in marcasite on lid
Shiseido hydra cream shadow in Violet Visions over Marcasite
SN Blue Butterfly on inner 1/3 of lid and inner corner

AL Phaedra on outer 1/3 of lid
SN Mystic on lower 1/2 of crease
AL Dulcinea on upper 1/2 of crease

SN Blur
SN Lady blush

Lips:

Morgana Cryptoria Sugar Plum Rum
Morgana Cryptoria Lillian

Here's another pic of the whole thing, with a different lip.

Lips:

SN Mirage
SN Icing Gloss

I like that lip, but there's something about the deep purple lip that goes with the Sugar Plum Fairy theme.

I also colored my hair today...here's the top.  It's more ashy blonde now, though pics still bring out the warmth.

I was considering changing it again, but I am still LOVING the Blonde.....so it's staying for now!  :D

Last Look this week!!! :D

Friday felt like a purple day....so I did a bit of a mix of some of my fave colors/brands.

Eyes:

TFSI
ELF Cream liner in black on lid
ELF cream liner in ivory on browbone
Shiseido Blossom Trio....Darkest color on lid, Medium color in inner crease, lightest in outer crease

Maybelline Great Lash Big Blackest Black

Face:

Smashbox Photo Finish Light
NARS Powder foundation in Fiji
MAC Dame Blush

Lips:

Shiseido Perfect Rouge Glowing Matte in Whisper
Shiseido Luminizing gloss in Cool

Cool is an awesome purple toned wash of color that works really well for layering.  I'm looking forward to trying it in other looks too!

That's it for now....hope to catch up on comments tomorrow!

And for Thursday's look....a quite dramatic mostly NARS look....

This was probably the most dramatic look I did this week.  LOVED it though!  I'm all for drama in the makeup department.

Eyes:

TFSI
TFSI Glitter Glue on lid
ELF Cream liner in black on lid
ELF Cream liner in ivory on browbone

NARS Powder foundation in Fiji
MAC Dame Blush

Lips:

Shiseido Perfect Rouge in Almond Pink
Shiseido Luminizing lip gloss in Sunlight

I loved the little bit of golden shimmer in the gloss paired with the lipstick!  I got a lot of complements for this look this week, it made my day!

Have you noticed how long my hair is gettting?  I'm growing it out a bit and it's brushing my shoulders now.  We'll see how long I can go without cutting again LOL....

Catching up....this weeks first look...Tuesdays look with Nars....

I totally forgot to take pics of Monday's look.  Oh well....I have the rest of the week as well as a couple hauls and I'm planning on doing a look once my deep treatment is done on my hair.  :D  I took out the teal....got bored to tears of it....right now it's just a nice blonde shade in my bang area.  I may decide to do a funky color again soon, but for now I like it how it is.  Blonde is so totally not usually what I would do!

This was from Tuesday.

Eyes:

Smashbox Photo Finish Eye Primer
ELF Cream Shadow in Eggplant on lid (purple)
ELF Cream Liner in Ivory on lid

I'm falling in love with NARS Products.  My only thing is the price of them means that I'll be getting my collection going SLOWLY.  Price Points mean a big deal for me, but I'm still willing to pay for quality.  Especially if it's gluten free.

I LOVE Catfight, it's a favorite of mine!  Does anyone else have it?  What do you think of it?

LOTD: Lots of Silver Tinsel....

Here was today's look.  I did gold yesterday, today it was silver.  :D

Eyes:

Smashbox Photo Finish Eyeshadow Primer
Indelible cream shadow in marcasite on lid
Indelible cream shadow in bare necessity on browbone
AL Air and Light on browbone
Morgana Tinsel me on lid and dry over lower liner
AL Tangled Tinsel in crease
Smashbox black pencil liner
Maybelline great lash big mascara in blackest black

Face:

Monistat Chafing Gel as a primer
Larenim Mineral Silk powder
Mix of equal parts Meow Pamperred Puss foundation in Naughty/Frisky Abyssinian
Larenim Mineral Silk Powder
Meow Hissy Fit Blush

Lips:

Shiseido Shimmering Rouge in BE 702 Alabaster
NARS Gloss in Striptease

Alright, I have a few observations from today.

1.  I think the Larenim Mineral Silk bothered my skin
2.  Monistat makes an AWESOME primer!  So far so good.  It blurred my pores better than any of the others and kept me pretty matte all day!  I'm still going to continue to test it though.  :D
3.  I can tell a difference in the color from yesterday's too light AL 2YL and today's just right Meow Pamperred puss mix of Naughty/frisky abyssinian.  It's faint, but it's there.

Monday's LOTD....I have NO IDEA what to call it....Purple haze????

This was Monday's look this week.  I loved how it turned out!!!

Lips:

Smashbox The Nude Lip pencil in Light
Shiseido lipstick in BR702 Almond Pink

I'm REALLY loving Nars and Shiseido's lippies!  They're divine, and don't feel overly heavy.  However, they're both fairly expensive.  I'm planning on an order from Silk Naturals that I'm very excited about, and it will be full of their lippies to try!  I'm sure I'll continue to add to my Nars and Shiseido lippies as well, since I'm basically starting over where lippies are concerned.  Lippies are one of the most important things to watch when you're gluten free as you ingest them.
