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!










What I used :

 Face-
Too Faced Primed & Poreless Pure
Revlon Colorstay Foundation in 110 Ivory


Eyes-
Wet N Wild Brulee
Urban Decay 24/7 Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Sabbath
Maybelline Mega Plush Volum' Express

Lips-
NYX lipliner pencil in 851 Black Berry
Geek Chic Cosmetics Geek Gloss in Banished

Fragrance-
Tom Ford Black Orchid





Everyday is an adventure.

EOTD : Darling Girl London Calling and Fyrinnae Orangutan - 7/21/2014

Ah so we meet again! I wasn't entirely happy with the last look I did, so I did another one today. Seems legit. I decided to go nice and simply, using only three eyeshadows in total. I think sometimes that simplicity is best, but I will leave that to you to decide.






What I used:

Milani Eyeshadow Primer
Glamour Doll Eyes Foil Me
Fyrinnae Orangutan
Darling Girl London Calling
Wet N Wild Brulee
Urban Decay 24/7 Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Perversion
ELF Eyebrow Kit in Dark



So what do you think, better? I think the blending is better and the overall shape is more what I am going for. I am still trying to figure out how to place and blend a dark color in my crease and outer lid area.

Urban Decay 24/7 Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner Swatches

Finally. I have had this post done forever and just never published it. No reason. So lets just get this started! =]

I just want to start out by saying I love these. Seriously I can't tell you enough about how wonderful they are, but I will try anyway. I was never very good at applying eyeliner properly. I once tried a gel liner and thought I found my holy grail. Then I tried these and I think this is my new holy grail eyeliner! When I first tried them I was very much intimidated. Once these are set they are -SET- I was very much afraid that with my lack of skills and the seeming permanence of these just made it so they sat in a container with all my eyeshadow brushes longing to create a beautiful graphic winged liner on my face. One night I must have been insane because I thought I could actually use these successfully. (see here and here)To my surprise I did and an unhealthy love/obsession was born. I have six of the eleven colors:

Radium - bright blue with silver sparkle
Sabbath - deep matte navy
Smog - deep brown with golden shimmer and iridescent sparkle
Demolition - deep matte brown
Retrograde - dark purple with purple sparkle
Perversion - carbon black


Top to Bottom - Radium, Sabbath, Smog, Demolition, Retrograde, Perversion

applicator

 Swatches
swatched over bare skin - no primer


Top - Radium, Smog, Retrograde
Bottom - Sabbath, Demolition, Perversion



Top - Radium, Smog, Retrograde
Bottom - Sabbath, Demolition, Perversion




What do you think of these Urban Decay eyeliners? What is your favorite color?
Do you prefer a different eyeliner medium (pencil, gel, etc)? Have any tips or trick?
