Today's Look... Suicide Squad Inspired

For those who may not know I am super excited for the moive, Suicide Squad. Originally I was not planning on doing a look or blogging a look today. I was going to try and keep it pretty basic (minus the purple brows). Instead I decided to continue to adding and ended up creating this look. I want to say it is loosely Suicide Squad inspired simply because that was what came to mind when apply my purples and lime green.

Unfortunately my photos do not do the make-up real justice. (I am working on getting a better lighting set up soon.) My eyeliner and under neither my eyes had a beautiful green sparkle, as well as a fun purpple shimmer in my brows.

Today's Look...

Today's look is a great example of how one can achieve a more toned down look, but still have that bright pop of color. 

The fun thing about this look is that it can be dressed up as the day goes on. For example, you could always wear the more neutral top lid eyeshadow through out the day (going to work) and then leave the pink and purple eyeshadow for the evening. Simply add it when you do your touch up before going out for the night. You can also achieve this very easily by using diffrent lipstick shades. 

I would consider my look to be a pretty toned down version of what it could be. I personally would dress it up with a bighter lipshadow, maybe some more shadow if I was going out for the evening.

Today's Look... Current "Everyday/Work" Look

Today's look is all about those days when you don't really want to put in the effort to do a full face of make up or those days when you're running a little late. You're already rushed to get to work and there just isn't enough time.

This is what I do when I'm running late, or don't have enough bag space to bring all the make up I would usually wear. I try to cut some corners by not using any eyeshadow. To give my eye a bit of depth I just add my contour color into the crease of my eyes. I complete the "shadow" by highlighting my brow bone with my highlight color. I also tend to skip such steps as an eye primer. I simply lightly apply my foundation across my eyelid before apply any powders. I also don't usually apply my Nyx jumbo pencil in milk unless I have some extra time, mind you it is only a 5 second step. Same goes for my second foundation shade. I would only apply the lighter shade if I had time to do a liquid highlight. On the day I did this blog I did have the extra time.

As always below is a list of all the products that I used as well as more picture of this look.

-Urban Decay Primer Potion

-Nyx Jumbo Pencil (Milk)

Today's Look... Smokey Midori Green

Today's look is a light and dark green combo on the eyes, with neutural natural lips. This look is all around this is a pretty simple and straight forward look to do. I used some of my favourite eyeshadows which of course are made by Sugar Pill. 

I do apologize for the lack of lighting in my photos. Unfortunately this was the best spot I could find today so I had to make due with what Ive got. These photos sadly don't do the shadows any justice. They are a lot brighter in person. The lightest green in the corner of my eyes had a lovely shimmer as well. :(

Lots of photos and of course a list of products used below so keep scrolling!!

Today’s Look… Shimmering Violets

Simple but super fun, this look is young and flirty. With bright pops of color and light catching shimmer this look is great for almost any out.

Like many “day” looks you can transition this makeup into something a little suited for a night out just by simply adding some darker eye shadow just on the outside corners of your eye. You can also adjust your eyeliner or add lashes for a bolder effect.

Remember you can always tone down your look just by using a more natural lip color or maybe choosing an eyeliner that isn’t as bold.

Today's Look... I kissed a Smurf

Today I was limited with the amount of time I had to do my make up but still wanted to rock something that was bold and colourful.  I decided to do a super simple eye with a bold Blue lip.

Wild lip colours have been on trend for a while now, especially over this past summer. You can pretty much get anyway with any shade of lip colour right now. This trend or look seems to work best when you pair it with a really simple and neutral eye.

Today's Look...

Hi everyone!! Sorry I keep disappearing. This summer I got signed onto a new TV show that will be airing in October. Can't wait to blog about it. Coming soon...

With that said this fall I will be committing more time to my blog and posting more looks, reviews and other awesome goodies!! Now onto some make up...

Today was the first time in a while that I actually went full out on my own make up. I miss having the time to do my make up the way I usually want to wear it. This look is very similar to the last one I posted, with slight differences. This smokey but colorful look is super fun to wear and easy to do.

Today's Look... Spring Fling

Finally!! Spring is upon us (or should be). I am OVER the Winter.

To celebrate I wanted to do a shimmery fun spring time look. I wanted to keep the theme of spring so I went with mostly blue and green shadows on the eyes, and then grounded the look with a more natural berry tone lipstick that had a slight shimmer as well.

Today's Look... Mardi Gras

Today's look was inspired by some of a gorgeous colors you may have seen during Mardi Gras this past weekend. Definitely not as dramatic as some of the amazing costumes & masks in New Orleans, but still quite colorful for a look that could be wore any day.

Today's Look... Purple Haze

I have been subconsciously using different shades of violets in all my blogs recently. I'm thinking this will be the final Violet blog for a while! :)

This look was created while trying a couple new products for the first time.
I really liked how Sleek Makeup's shimmery Purple looked on top of the Mary Kay Cream Color. Using the cream base really helped the lighter shade pop.

Color Match Tip: Shades of Purple or Violet look great on Brown eyes.

Today's Look... Valentines

This was the make up I wore on Valentines day this year. Yes, a little late on the holiday but a look for almost any day of the year none-the-less.

 

I choose a soft but smokey purple for my lid and blended out into a darker purple at the outer comers of my eye. I choose to use a white liner on my water line instead of black because white will open the eye more, making your eyes in turn look larger & brighter. I choose to stay very pale and neutral with the lips to contrast from my eyes.

Today's Look... My Evil Twin

Today's look is a balance between dark and light. At first glance this make up may seem to be dark, almost gothic, however looking closing you will notice the eyes are very neutral and simple. They are given a edgy look but adding a winged liner and by using shimmering metallic shades on the lid.
