Current Obsessions - Dark Lips - Part One

If you are anything like me, you know the importance of a good base. I find if I want my dark lips to last all day, I need to use some kind of lip liner. I have three dark liners, so that makes my choices pretty easy. Do I want black, dark red-berry or dark brown-red. Easy! I really enjoy the NYX liners, but I do prefer the normal pencil liners to the retractable ones. I think they work better and break less often for me.

FOTD : Birthday Makup - 7/31/2014

Today is the day I turn 25. When I was younger 25 was the age I always thought was the greatest. You had all your shit together, you had a job you enjoyed (at a coffee place), a boyfriend (starving artist type), a cellphone (?), and just generally had a say over what you did.This is mostly true. I have a job that I mostly enjoy, just not at a coffee shop. I don't have a boyfriend, but I do have a lovely husband that I love with all of my heart. I do have a cellphone! And I mostly get to do whatever I want 'cause I'm a grownup!

Because I am so grown up I thought I would be seriously appropriate to wear some sweet blue lips - as I have been obsessing over them like crazy!
