Look: Don’t Scare the Newbies
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bobbi Brown, Chantecaille, Looks, MAC, Neutral
The day I did this look was the first day of a week-long training that makes me want to pull my hair out. Seriously, it’s way below me, but they pay me to go, so I go. Unfortunately for them, I wear my thoughts on my face…and I really can’t hide how I feel. Apparently I’m hilarious to sit across from because I constantly roll my eyes or make faces when I don’t approve which makes others who know me laugh like crazy! It’s pretty subconscious, and something I need to work on for sure!
Anyway, so being the first day of a training, I figured I wouldn’t go OTT with the color, so as not to scare the newbies who don’t wear makeup (but SOOOO SHOULD!). It’s pretty much the same as my look with the glasses, but sleeker. Amazing what some liner on the waterline will do :-)
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Bare Study PP (base), Bobbi Brown Shimmering Nudes Palette, Bobbi Brown Black Ink (upper lashline), UD 24/7 Zero (waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Honey Light + Margin blush
- Lips: Chantecaille Luna l/s + Bobbi Brown Glacier Shimmer l/g

Look: Quick Nudes & Glasses!
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bobbi Brown, Looks, MAC, Neutral
Ugh, getting up on a Sunday morning is NOT my thing, but it was for a good cause. I went to Fry’s with my friend Ruth to get some technology goodies, and she doesn’t like crowds, so we tried to go when there would be as few people as possible…when it opens on a Sunday! Well, of course I can’t go out in public without my face on, so I put a quick nudes look together. I saved a pair of my contacts though by wearing my glasses 8-)
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Bobbi Brown Shimmering Nudes Palette, Bobbi Brown Black Ink (liner), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara, D&G glasses
- Cheeks: Honey Light + Margin blush
- Lips: Bobbi Brown Silver l/s

Look: Oh Sweet Honey
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bronze, Brown, Looks, MAC, Neutral
This was my first attempt to recreate that awesome look that James (my MA) did for me. I think it was fair…not perfect, but definitely not a fail. :-) I don’t have very many pictures though because I was running late and I had to get to work earlier than usual. Plus…I was in a sad mood because husband and I got in a tiff the night before. No worries though, all is now well in the Coloruza household :-) So what do you think?
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Rubenesque PP (base), Buckwheat (outer lid & crease & lower lashline), Paradisco (above crease), Creme de Miel (inner & middle lid), Nylon (highlight), UD 24/7 Zero (liner), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Margin blush + Honey Light High-light powder
- Lips: Coach Spice l/s + She’s A Star lipglass

Look: Gray with Dark Lips
Posted by Heather | Filed under Chanel, Coach, Gray, Laura Geller, Lips, Looks, MAC, Neutral, Smokey
The lips looked great when I looked in the mirror…forgive the close-ups :-) I wore this look on a day when I had to make a really important presentation to the whole faculty! Despite some technical difficulties, it went pretty well. And apparently people think I’m “dressed up” when I wear darker lips. Go figure!
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPP (primer), Painterly PP (base), Seedling (inner lid), Remotely Gray (middle lid), Print (outer lid & crease), Daisychain (highlight), Penultimate Liner (upper lashline), Guerlain Loose Kohl Powder #01 Noir (waterlines), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Laura Geller Pink Grapefruit Mineralized Blush
- Lips: Chanel Perplex l/s + Coach Freesia lipgloss

Look: Jupiter for Graduation
Posted by Heather | Filed under Chanel, Lips, Looks, MAC, Neutral
The day I did this look, it was C-Track 8th grade graduation day at my school. I wore a new dress that had pink and red flowers, so I centered my look around wearing the Chanel Glossimer Jupiter. I don’t know why I found it so surprising that I got so many compliments on it, but I did. Probably because I just thought it was “ok, another red gloss” on me, but others were like “wow, that looks so great on you!” Thanks! :-) Since I wore the red lips, had to do something semi-neutral on the eye.
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPP (primer), Painterly PP (base), Bisque (inner lid & highlight), Kid (middle lid), Coppering (outer lid & crease), UD 24/7 Zero (liner), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Dior Bronze Harmonie de Rose Brazille Blush
- Lips: Cherry l/l + Chanel Jupiter Glossimer

Look: Neutral-ish Grays
Posted by Heather | Filed under Black, Gray, Looks, MAC, Neutral, Smokey
The day I did this look I had to go to a Principal’s Conference at a hotel as an instructional support provider. It was interesting…just sitting in some meetings pretty much. I like being on that side of the educational world though. I wanted to use more matte colors and slightly neutral, but a little smokey and gray all at the same time. This is what I came up with!

- Eyes: UDPP (primer), Painterly PP (base), Clue (inner lid) Innuendo (middle lid), Typographic (crease), Carbon (outer crease), Bisque (highlight), Black Russian Pearlglide (upper lashline), Chanel Graphite (lower lashline), Feline Kohl Power (waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
