Look: Mineralized Mosh Posh
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bronze, Brown, Gold, Looks, Pink
Well peoples…today’s look post is going to just be pictures. I must have forgotten to write down what I used in my look the day these were taken, because I can’t find it anywhere! :-( Well, it wasn’t spectacular or anything, so at least you probably won’t miss the break-down too much. :-P I labeled the pictures Mineralized Mosh Posh, so I do know that I used a bunch of mineralized e/s to create this look. One of my favorite MA’s, James, from the MAC counter at Nordstrom South Bay Galleria gave me a tip when applying the mineralized shadows: spray some Fix + to your brush first, then pick up the color, and voila! It’s much more vibrant and less fall-out. Genius!

Look: Gold and Black Smokey Hawaiian
Posted by Heather | Filed under Black, Gold, Looks, MAC, Smokey, Yellow
For my last day in Kauai, Hawaii, I did this smokey gold and black look. Of course you know that I didn’t bring my entire collection with me…no, not even close. I brought a fraction of it and it was so painful to leave some things behind, but I managed. And the other thing about being here…I don’t want to spend over an hour getting ready, which is difficult for me to do especially when my stuff is all over the place in different bags and containers. My family gets on my case when I take too long, and it’s so much more difficult without my close-up mirror and everything. Anyway, I was wearing my favorite black shirt and kakhi pants for a day of shopping, hanging by the pool-side bar, and just walking around. So this is the look I chose to go with it. Aloha!
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Black Tied (outer lid & crease), Goldmine (middle lid), Gorgeous Gold (inner lid), Motif (highlight), Feline Kohl Power (upper lashline), UD 24/7 Honey (lower lashline), Guerlain Loose Kohl Powder #1 Noir (waterlines), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Dior Bronze Couture Palette Bronzer + Chanel gold highlight powder
- Lips: YSL Rouge Pur #59 + Chanel Gold Shine Glossimer

This was from my first “real” night in Kauai. We spent all day at the beach right outside the Marriott where we’re staying. Beautiful day.

I just couldn’t resist using my Dior Bronze Couture Palette again because it’s pure LOVE! Seriously so beautiful! Oh, and I’m looooooving the lip combo of the two Clé de Peau products.

Look: Smokey Browns Oh Baby!
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bronze, Brown, Guerlain, Looks, MAC, Smokey
FOR DENNY!
This look is completely centered around the Oh Baby lipglass because I was so excited that I found it and wanted to do a look with it. I wore brown and everything! It’s an amazing lipglass color and it has glitter all throughout. I really liked the way this look turned out now that I’ve seen the pictures. Too bad I returned the Holy Smoke e/s, but it was for the best. I’m sure this look can be duped with what I’ve already got…which is a lot :-) I did this look last week, but all the looks I’ll be posting for the next 7 days will be from the island of Kauai in Hawaii! So I’m putting up this post right before I walk down to the beach to get a drink and catch some rays (with SPF on of course!). I really hope I don’t burn. Aloha!
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Guerlain Holy Smoke Mineralized e/s (middle lid), Satin Taupe (outer lid), Ochre Style (inner lid), Guerlain Eye Kohl #1 Noir (waterlines), UD 24/7 Zero (upper lashline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara, and that’s all I can remember…sorry!
- Cheeks: Dior Bronze Couture Palette Bronzer
- Lips: Oh Baby lipglass (yay I found it!)

Coloruza in Hawaii!
Posted by Heather | Filed under Uncategorized
Hello my dear readers! Sorry for not posting yesterday or today. I spent literally all day today flying to get here (Kauai). It’s been insane…but I made it and my makeup did too, so here’s hoping it’s going to be a great…non-stressful week! Traveling in general tends to stress me out, and this is not really like what I was expecting…so…we’ll see what happens. I’ll do my best to keep posting looks as I can, but right now it’s midnight according to my body which has been awake since 5am so I’m gonna try to sleep for now. Aloha and mahalo! :-)
