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!!

Lime Crime China Doll Palette

“Chinadoll is fragile and bold, soft-spoken and out-spoken, a free spirit of undeniable presence. I created a romantic duality by casting watercolor gradients against sharper lines — Lotus Noir was applied under lower lashes, blended into Jade-o-Lade, then faded seamlessly into Parasol. Finally, I added soft-red accents to her cheeks, brows and around the temples for an innocent glow evocative of vintage Chinese advertising posters.”

As many have heard, Doe Deere's Lime Crime is now coming out with their first pressed eyeshadow palette. For those who don't know this will be Lime Crimes first time release any pressed shadows. I am very excited to see how they will compare to other loved names & colors.

The China Doll palette will be featuring 5 new shades. Fly Dragon Fly (Red), Parasol (Baby Blue), Goldfish (Golden Yellow), Jade-O-Lade (Jade Green), Lotus Noir (Matte Black), all promising to be richly pigmented with color.

 





They are said to be launched on February 15th/12. The palette will be priced at $34.99 US & can be purchased on the Lime Crime website.

Can't wait to review.

Today's Look...Gimmie Shelter

Today's look was inspired by Gimmie Shelter by The Rolling Stones. (<3) I wanted to create a really bold, and bright eye, but also include that sexy smokey darkness towards the end.  I love using pruples for smokey eyes. I like to switch it up from the same old black. Dark purples pair beautifully with bright greens. They pair so well together I decided I would use to duo on my eyes to give myself a look that would pop.

Todays Look... Dirtyy Blue

 I am in mad love with this look. (Ha, props to me!) I just really love this shade of blue. I knew I wanted to use this color for sure, and maintained the crisp-ness with white on the lid.

This look is hella easy to create, however is propably not for everyone. It is very bright and bold. However you can always switch colors in and out of a look, and control how dramatic or bold you would like it to be.

Today's Look... Helena Beat

Today my makeup was a struggle. This was the second attempt at it for the day. I originally was using green, blue and purple, but in the end decided to narrow the lid color to blue and purple, and bring the green down to my lower lid.

The colors I used where inspired from some other amazing looks I have seen recently. I named it Helena Beat because today I have been obsessed with that song by Foster the People. (lol) <3

Here's what I managed to come up with...

Today's Look... Yellow Cat Eyes

Today's look was inspired from two things. One being that fact it's already Fall, and my favorite holiday, which isn't really a holiday Halloween is fast approaching, fitting right in theme with the Yellow Cat Eye. (Yellow being the shade of shadow and cat being the crazy liner.) The second reason being, and truly the original reason, is this craptacular weather we have today. It is so grey, dark and gloomy. Sometime I do like these rainy days, but today I am not feeling it. I wanted to do a really bright, and out there look to contrast the day.

This look had to do with a lot of experimentation. I just wanted something boardering edgy and fun.

Note: I don't think I would actually wear the lip stick out, its a little bit too pale for my liking. Once I went to work I replaced the lipstick in the photos with a nice pink.

Here's what I came up with...

Today's Look... Bubble Gum Yum

This look is defiantly the biggest super-bubble-pop look Ive ever done. It almost reminds me of a Barbie Doll. I didn't intentionally do this. I was just trying to do something nice, but simple before work. I wanted to use one of my Sugarpill Sample again, and choose the lipstick, simply cuz it was something different and went along with my eyes.

Here is what I came up with....

Todays Look... Grrblurp (lol)

I came up with today's look by actually wearing my rainbow look one day. I really liked how the green faded into the blue, then the blue into the purple on my lower lid. I decided I wanted to try it as the main focus on my upper lid.

 

I think it turned out great. I love this common sense color combo.

Soda Pop Series: Dr. Pepper

Day #6: Dr. Pepper
Dr. Pepper was a pop I was never big fan of. I personally didn't like the stuff at all. However as a child something always intrigued me about the name. It sounds so silly, and really is, but it was something I always thought about... Who the hell is Dr. Pepper? Is that pop spicy or something? I don't get it... pepper? I always thought there was something more behind it. Kind of an embarrassing, funny little story to bring us right into our next look.

Soda Pop Series: Grape Crush

Day #2: Grape Crush
Grape Crush is the darkest look of the week. I knew it would be considering it consists of mostly purple and some dark green. When I chose to do the Pop Series I knew Grape Crush would have to be included being a signature and unforgettable color in the pop world.

Today's Look.. Leafy Green

Today I did another look using more bright green colors. I have noticed recently I have been doing a lot of green looks. I'm gonna have to start switching it up soon. For now, this is one from my green collection (lol) Leafy Green. It's suppose to be a good mix between bright, and smokey green, with a touch of gold sparkle.

Once I was almost done this look, I noticed that really, this is a mix of two look Ive already done. It reminds me of Green Machine & Green Eyes. Either way, this is what I came up with.

For a list of products and more pix keep reading.

Todays Look...Green Sheen

Today's I went for a more springy green look. I used a couple different products on my eyes today. I just kind of started and kept building and building. I'm really happy with the way it turned out. I love the bright green fading off into the yellow.

Today's Look... Lime Crime

Hey guys, if you checked out my blog yesterday (or it may have been the day before) you would know that I did my Lime Crime review.

I reviewed four of the magical dusts: Siren, Lime Criminal, Empress, and Circus Girl. As well as a lipstick called Great Pink Planet. These are all the colors I used in my look.

 

Lime Crime Review!

This review is looooooong over due. To be completely honest I wanted to get a couple more items before I did some sort of review on the product. Today however I am VERY happy to finally be doing my first review on Lime Crime.

Lime Crime is a whimsical cosmetic line that is growing in popularity and size. Created by Doe Deere, the Unicorn Queen herself, this line has a very girly, and almost what I would like to call light feeling. The whole product, representation, website and creator all remind me of some kind of fairy tale.

 

I love this.
