Valentine's Day 8/14 - Fun Pink Look With ELF 144 Palette

Here is yet ANOTHER pink and purple look. I really like this combination. The reason I did this is to show that you can get a beautiful look without having to spend a ton of money. For this look, I used the ELF 144 palette and Rimmel Nostalgia lipstick. The ELF 144 palette is a great investment. Not every shadow is a winner, but the ones that are, are great to work with and have great color pay off. Just see for yourself!

First I used Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin. Then I used Column 7 Row 3 for a wash all over the lid.

Next I used Column 8 Row 10 on the outer half of the lid.

Then I used Column 8 Row 3 as  highlight on my brow bone.

Then I placed Column 7 Row 9 in the crease and outer v.

I then used Jack's Lantern from Darling Girl as a liner.

I created a small wing and smudged a little on my lower lash line as well.

I am really loving these colors together, what do you think?

What are you going to be wearing on Valentine's day? Anything special or is it just another day?

Valentine's Day 5/14 - Smokey Brown Eye Using Kat Von D Evelyn Palette

Today is day five of my Valentine's series. I wanted to do a smokey look using Kat Von D's Evelyn Palette. This palette contains my favorite browns from her line and can create a few nice simple looks. The quality of the shadows is good, and it would be great for a beginner or someone looking for something to throw in their purse that can create an everyday work appropriate look and then be able to add a little to take you from day to night.

Urban Decay Primer Potion
Kat Von D Evelyn Palette
Jane Fan Club Curling Mascara

 Here is a face chart to make it easier to see what I did. I will also have a video up soon to help as well. I also thought that this would help if you wanted to create a look similar but without using the Too Faced palette.

 

What do you think of this look? Would you wear this out on a date? everyday?

I am also testing out some ideas for makeup for my wedding, do you think this eye look would be nice?

Do you like the layout I did here? Do you like the face chart? What would make these posts more interesting/helpful?
