Look: Shady Lady w/ Guerlain Gems!

Heather — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 01:34:18 +0000

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: Shady Lady Amazing!

Heather — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 23:13:45 +0000

The last time I did a haul at Sephora, I came across this small square palette. It’s called the Shady Lady palette. Now, if you know me, you know that I’m somewhat of a makeup snob. I stick to brands I know and rarely branch out. Something compelled me to swatch these beauties, and they are so buttery soft, so well pigmented, *sigh* I just had to buy them. It was a palette, and around $30, so I felt it was a score. I’ve used every color and never looked back :-)

I’ve used this palette so many times, and I love the color variety! This is the original palette, but it looks like Volume 2 is out now at Sephora. If you’re looking for an awesome quick-look-and-go palette, this does NOT disappoint. And this is coming from me, and I’m verrrrrry particular about my shadows :-)

Now on to the look. This is one of a few I’ve made with this lovely palette. It was back in January, so I’m still dressed for cold weather :-)

Hehe…that’s my big fuzzy sweater!

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Shady Lady Palette: jet-setting jennifer (inner & middle lid), shameless-shana (middle & outer lid), caught-in-the-act-courtney (crease), Femme Fi (highlight), Bobbi Brown Chocolate Shimmer Ink, Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
Cheeks: Cheeky Bronze MSF
Lips: Lancome Neutral Current lipgloss

Look: Something Blue

Heather — Mon, 17 May 2010 06:08:39 +0000

Wowie, can you believe this look is from way back in November ’09?! Sheesh! Although, to be fair, I haven’t recorded any new looks since January. I’m gonna have to get back into the habit again! And I will very soon because I only have one paper left until I am officially DONE with my MA. Woot!!!!! So excited! Tomorrow is my last class *does happy dance*. Ok time for a look finally!

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

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPP (primer), Painterly PP (base), SMH Glam (inner lid), SMH Something Blue (middle lid), Contrast (outer lid & crease), Vapour (highlight), Bobbi Brown Cobalt Ink (liner), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara

Look: Bobbi Brown Goes Green

Heather — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 21:33:41 +0000

You just can’t beat the silky smoothness of Bobbi Brown shadows. Buttery soft and so pigmented; they’re just amazing! The lipgellee on the other hand…it was brighter than it showed up in the pictures. I ended up returning it. It looks pretty with this look, but it didn’t wear well for me.

I hope everyone has a Happy Valentine’s Day!!

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Moss Scape PP (base), Bobbi Brown Golden Leaf (inner lid), Bobbi Brown Bash (middle & outer lid), Bobbi Brown Ivy (crease), Femme-Fi (highlight), Bobbi Brown Ivy Shimmer Ink (liner), UD 24/7 Grafitti (waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara

Well, for this look, all I know for the shadows is that I used the ones from the Kat Von D Metal Palette. I never wrote down which ones, but luckily there is a limited amount in there. It’s very blue. Not sure if I like it that much, but here it is…

Look: Easy Browns for Stress

Heather — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 22:37:49 +0000

I did this look the week I started my masters program last semester, so needless to say, I was super stressed. I didn’t want to take that much time on my makeup, so I decided to do some easy browns. For me, it seems like browns are the easiest to work with, and they take me the least amount of time. And of course, like Denny would say, brown is always a winner!

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Yaby PP browns (base), SMH shadows, NARS Mekong (crease), NARS Night Star (highlight), Bobbi Brown Chocolate Shimmer Ink (liner), UD 24/7 Underground (waterline), Plushlash mascara
Cheeks: NARS Love Joy + NARS Albatross (highlight)
Lips: Partial Nude l/l + Young Think l/g

Look: Pink & Blue

Heather — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 17:22:48 +0000

This is a slightly older look that I forgot to post! I think this look is better in concept…the middle looks too gray I think. But the pink on the lid makes the look less bold, and blue tends to be quite bold. It’s a nice combo that didn’t come out looking purple. And oh, how I love frosty pink lips!!! :-)

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Fresco Rose PP (base), Ego (inner lid), Smashbox Flamingo (middle lid), Moon’s Reflection (outer lid & above crease), Deep Truth + Contrast (crease), Solar White (highlight), Bobbi Brown Cobalt Ink (liner), Blooz Kohl (waterline), Plushlash mascara
Cheeks: Gentle mineralized blush
Lips: Madly Creative l/s + Take A Hint Tendertone

Look: Chameleon

Heather — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 06:45:57 +0000

I call this one chameleon because that is what it looks like to me! It’s like it could change color depending on how you look at it…like a duochrome nail polish! It’s got greens and teals and golds… Whoa! I loved how it turned out :-)

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPP (primer), Yaby PP in greens (base), SMH Olive Branch (inner lid), SMH Fresh (middle lid), Bottle Green (outer lid & crease), Nylon (highlight), Bobbi Brown Ivy Ink (liner), Exceptionnel mascara
Cheeks: Superduper Natural mineralized blush
Lips: Chanel Rouge Allure Laque #77 + Nice Mix Up l/g

Look: Notoriety w/ Some Glitz

Heather — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 06:17:36 +0000

For this look I used the MAC Notoriety Quad. I added some NARS Mediteranee and some Reflects Copper Glitter to make it more shimmery. Unfortunately I don’t think the camera picked up on the glitter much because it’s so fine. Oh well. I rarely use the reflects glitters and I thought it would be fun. I did this look on a Sunday when we were going to Roy’s for my sister-in-law’s birthday. It was very ME because it’s bright, colorful, and dramatic! :-)

For this look I used

Eyes: UDPP (primer), Painterly PP (base), Notoriety Quad: Skintone 2 (inner lid), Rich & Earthly (middle lid), Notoriety (outer lid & crease), Skintone 1 (highlight), NARS Mediteranee (inner & middle lid), Reflects Copper Glitter (middle lid), NARS Mekong (crease), Bobbi Brown Chocolate Shimmer Ink (liner), Plushlash mascara
Cheeks: Notable
Lips: Buzz lipglass
