Look: Shady Lady w/ Guerlain Gems!
Posted by Heather | Filed under Blue, Bobbi Brown, Bronze, Gray, Guerlain, Lips, Looks, MAC, Silver, Smokey, Urban Decay
Didn’t I tell ya I love this Shady Lady palette?! The colors blend beautifully. The little pop of green helped the eyes come together and not be too dark. But the real star of this look is the lipstick. Guerlain Rouge G lipstick are some of the most glorious and luxurious ones on the market. Gems was limited edition – a beautiful coral pink. So perfect, it doesn’t need any gloss on top. :-)
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPP (primer), Shady Lady palette: Jet-setting-jennifer (inner lid), easy wheezie (middle lid), all about alex (outer lid), jealous jordana (crease), MAC Solar White (highlight), Bobbi Brown Forest Shimmer Ink (upper lash line), UD Grafitti (waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Cheeky Bronze MSF
- Lips: Guerlain Gems Rouge G l/s

Look: Kat Von D True Love Palette
Posted by Heather | Filed under Guerlain, Kat Von D, Laura Geller, Looks, Purple, White, Yaby
It’s about time for a look, eh? I have to say that I really love the Kat Von D palettes. I have them all so far. There’s a new one out that I saw via Scrangie, and I’m super disappointed in it. I won’t be buying that one – 3 creme shadows (the quality of the creme shadows are terrible)?! Ugh. Ah well, I just ordered the new UD Naked palette, so I can’t WAIT to try that one out. I’ve heard so many good things…ok I’m off topic now.
The KVD shadows are of excellent quality in my opinion. They are soft, “buttery”, and have awesome pigmentation. If you haven’t tried them out, you really should. Head on over to Sephora and see which colors suit you best.
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPP (primer), Yaby white & purple PP (base), Kat Von D True Love Palette: Missy (inner lid), Shiba (middle & outer lid), Cholita (crease), Missy (highlight), Penultimate liner, Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Laura Geller Pink Grapefruit
- Lips: Guerlain Kiss Kiss Gloss #866

Hehe, like my math shirt?! I wear it like once per week because it’s comfortable. I designed it myself!

Look: Green Scheme
Posted by Heather | Filed under Green, Guerlain, Kat Von D, Laura Mercier, Looks, MAC, Smokey
That Green Theme look I did is one of my new favorites, so I’ve used it a few times already :-) Just changed up the cheeks and lips a bit. I know it’s lame of me to post the same look so soon, but it pops color, there’s contour and shading, and it’s just everything I’m all about, so I love it. I hope you do too!! I think I may need to do this one as a tutorial!

Look: Springtime Pink & Green
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bobbi Brown, Green, Guerlain, Laura Geller, Looks, MAC, Pink
I need new color combination ideas. I can’t wait for MAC Graphic Garden because those will be fun colors to put together. I was thinking about pairing up pink and green for this look. Not bright like the Barbie look; just soft colors, but that aren’t overly blended and muddy. I couldn’t think of regular e/s colors that I wanted to use for this look, so I went with all pigments.
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Fresco Rose PP (base), Apricot Pink Pigment (all over lid up to crease), Golder’s Green Pigment (crease & above crease), Antique Green Pigment (crease), Pink Opal Pigment (highlight), Bobbi Brown Ivy Shimmer Ink (upper lashline), Jealous Kohl Power (waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Laura Geller Pink Grapefruit mineralized blush + Bobbi Brown Pink Platinum Shimmer Brick
- Lips: Guerlain Candy Shine l/s + YSL Golden Gloss #10

For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPP (primer), Painterly PP (base), Jardin Aires Pigment (all over lid), Entremauve Pigment (outer lid & crease), Naked Pigment (highlight), Bobbi Brown Violet Shimmer Ink (liner), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Laura Geller Pink Grapefruit Mineralized blush

Look: Smoke in Vegas Casinos
Posted by Heather | Filed under Black, Bobbi Brown, Chantecaille, Gray, Guerlain, Looks, MAC, Smokey
This past weekend we went to Vegas for our end of the season bowling tournament. I got ready for the whole day/night in the morning, and I went for a smokey eyeshadow look. Casinos are usually filled with smoke, so smokey eyes is appropriate right? LOL! I wore a dress out that night – the same one I wore to my students’ graduation. Although I wore just a white t-shirt to bowl in for the morning (which is when I took these pictures). It’s a different look for this dress, and I kinda liked it with my new hair cut. Husband liked it too ;-)
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Blackground PP (base), Carbon (near lashline), Chantecaille Titanium (whole lid), Grand Entrance (highlight), Bobbi Brown Graphite Shimmer Ink (liner), Guerlain Loose Kohl Powder #01 Noir (waterlines), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Laura Geller Pink Grapefruit Mineralized blush
- Lips: Guerlain KissKiss Honey Shine lipstick

Look: For the Flight Home
Posted by Heather | Filed under Gold, Gray, Guerlain, Lips, Looks, MAC, Pink, Smokey
I know you’re probably super-duper tired of me forgetting the specific breakdown for my looks lately…I blame my “vacation” which made me unfocused. So I apologize for that! I DO know that I used Expensive Pink in the middle, probably Typographic on the outer lid & crease. On the lips was Guerlain Matte Lipgloss #2. This was the look I did for our long flight back to the mainland where we watched “Confessions of a Shopaholoic” which was great! I’m totally like her…except only with makeup haha! :-)
See more pictures! Even if I don’t have the exact breakdown, they’re still pretty hehe :-) Read the rest of this entry »
