Look: In the Gallery Quad
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bobbi Brown, Looks, MAC, Pink, Purple
I wasn’t sure about this quad when I first got it, but it created a really nice matte look. It’s soft and chic. The shadows looked pink and purple, but it comes out more brown on my lid. It’s so interesting to see how different colors turn out differently on various skin tones. I did a girl’s makeup when I was working at MAC - she was going to be in a beauty pageant - and I started using Satin Taupe. It looked totally purple-ish on her! It was such a cool color, so I had to warm it up with more yellow toned browns. Ok, I digress, but it was interesting!
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPP (primer), Painterly PP (base), In the Gallery Quad: Lightfall (inner lid), In the Gallery (middle & outer lid), Private Viewing (crease), Look at the Eyes (highlight), Bobbi Brown Violet Shimmer Ink (liner), Feline Kohl Power (waterline), Plushlash mascara
- Cheeks: The Perfect Cheek
- Lips: Hold the Pose l/s + Personal Taste l/g

COLORUZA TURNS 1 !!!!
Posted by Heather | Filed under Uncategorized
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! Yep, one year ago today (on the very first day of 2009), I wrote my first post on Coloruza.com. This isn’t a large blog, but I really enjoy running it and can only hope for bigger and better things to come for us in 2010. Though I will be busy when school starts again, please know that I will not be too far away. So far, I’ve done 250+ posts, probably 95% of which were actual looks!
First, I want to thank you so much for reading, watching, lurking, and commenting. Each one of your page views and comments really mean a lot to me…so even if you can’t find another way to say it, keep on saying it, because I love it! Over the past year I got two Z-Palettes to test for free, but everything else is bought by my hard earned money. I do this blog for me, and now also for you, my dear readers :-) Thanks for all of your encouragement and feedback.
I wish that I had something to give away…and maybe someday soon I will…but in the mean time, please help me celebrate by doing one thing: Leave a comment telling me 1. Which Coloruza look is your favorite, and 2. What else (looks or otherwise) you’d like to see on Coloruza in 2010.
Thanks to everyone! Happy 2010!!!
Look: Smokey Electra
Posted by Heather | Filed under Black, Bobbi Brown, Gray, Looks, MAC, Silver, Smokey, Yaby, Yves Saint Laurent (YSL)
This is a take on the smokey gray eyes with a MLBB (my lips, but better) color. It’s simple white, gray, and black blended together to make it look smokey. It’s a great look for going out (even though I’m wearing this one to work…in a t-shirt ha!). But that’s just the way I am I guess. :-) Happy New Year to you and your families!
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Yaby PP silver (base), Rondelle (inner lid), Electra (middle lid), Typographic (outer lid), Carbon (crease), Unbasic White (highlight), Bobbi Brown Black Ink (liner), Plushlash mascara
- Cheeks: NARS Super Orgasm + Shell Pearl
- Lips: YSL Rouge Volupte #3
