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!
For this look I used:
- 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
- Cheeks: Hot Planet Mineralized Blush Duo
- Lips: NARS Bahama Velvet Matte Lip Pencil + Chanel Aqualumier #66 lipgloss
See more pictures! They came out nice this time!! :-) Read the rest of this entry »

Look: Silver Smokey with Some Color
Posted by Heather | Filed under Blue, Gray, Green, Looks, MAC, Silver, Smokey
This is the look I used for my first tutorial. What I discovered is that it’s difficult to do a tutorial without deciding exactly what colors I wanted to use and without having a close-up mirror. It ended up being 25 minutes! So needless to say, I will have to do some major editing and cutting down. I talk too much lol! Also, I’ve never used any video editing software before, so we’ll see…it might not be posted for a while, but at least I’m getting started on it and I’m learning!
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Rondelle (inner lid), Silver Ring (middle lid), Typographic (outer lid & crease), Humid (upper crease), Deep Truth (crease), Vellum (highlight), UD 24/7 Dime (inner lashline), Feline Kohl Power (outer lashline & waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Bobbi Brown Coral Shimmer Blush
- Lips: Arbonne Echo

Look: Holiday ’08 Classic Eyes Palette
Posted by Heather | Filed under Blue, Bronze, Green, Looks, MAC
Funny story. So my DH (dear husband) and I were cooking dinner last night (using the microwave and the toaster oven lol) when all of a sudden the electricity in only the kitchen went out. No problem - I went to the circuit breaker and flipped some switches… well something went wrong and none of the lights that were connected to switches in the whole apartment worked! All of the plugs worked still though. So while getting ready with this look, the ONLY light I had was the little light around the mirror…so if this comes out not as good as some of my other looks, I apologize, but it was really hard to see lol :-)
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Soft Ochre PP (base), MAC Holiday 2008 Classic Eyes Palette, YSL dark liquid liner (upper lashline), UD 24/7 Baked (waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Tippy Beauty Powder Blush
- Lips: Arbonne Prep & Plump Echo lipgloss

Look: Quick Browns with a Touch of Pink Using Pigments
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bronze, Brown, Looks, MAC, Pink, Smokey
With this look I successfully used only Pigments. I wanted something bronzy and brown with a little bit of pink, but something quick and easy because I had to be at work early. This is what I came up with!
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Indian Wood PP (base), Revved Up Pigment (inner lid), Museum Bronze Pigment (middle & outer lid), Chocolate Brown Pigment (crease), Naked Pigment (highlight), Brownborder Technakohl liner, Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Earth to Earth Mineralized Blush Duo + Bobbi Brown Copper Diamond Shimmer Brick
- Lips: Chanel Aqualumier lipgloss in Pink Diamond #67

Look: Reader Requested Purples
Posted by Heather | Filed under Looks, MAC, Purple, Smokey
This is a darker look - requested by Lynn :-) I didn’t particularly care for it, but that’s because I couldn’t get much depth out of it. Creme de Violet muddied together with Vibrant Grape so they looked like the same color. My Librarian friend Leslie loved it, and my fellow math teacher Lucy didn’t like it at all (and told me so). Ah well, can’t win ’em all right? hehe
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Blackground PP (base), Creme de Violet (inner lid), Vibrant Grape (middle lid), Graphology (outer lid & crease), Vellum (highlight & lower lashline), Feline Kohl Power (liner), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
- Cheeks: Bobbi Brown Plum Wine Shimmer Blush
- Lips: Arbonne Va Va Voom Sheer Shine l/g
