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.

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... Green Smoke (Wicked Witch of the West)

Today I wanted to try some kinda of green smokey eye, mixed with a bright green eyeliner. Very similar to looks Ive done before. Pretty basic. Just a look I did for fun after helping my mom move. :)

Here's what it looks like...

Today's Looks... Limes & Lemons

I wanted to do something really bright and fun today. I was surfing around online for some kind of inspiration and decided to use the first email I ever had, limes_lemons. I needed something to spark a bright idea and this was it.

Here is what I came up with...

Today's Look... Sea Foam

Today’s looked was based simply off contrast. My hair is very pink and black, my nails are Lilac Purple, so I wanted my eyes to be something different. I was also looking for a excuse to use my new eyeliners from Sephora.

Here what I managed to come 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.

Todays Look... Grapes

This has to be one of my go-to looks, if that makes any sense. Whenever I want something quick and easy, something that is going to last all day, but still be bright and colorful I always turn to my greens. I do this because I have a great lime green hydro-cream eyeshadow that works as a long lasting base. The product is super versatile and one of my faves. Also if you flick thought my blog, you can see all the different greens used, and how often I use them.

I named this look Grapes because some are green and some are purple. Keeping with the basic theme. (Lol)

Either way, today was one of those run to what I know days. I had to pick up and go this morning but didn't want to look like a complete bum. This is what I managed to come up with...

Soda Pop Series: Cream Soda

Day #3: Cream Soda
I HAD to do a look for Cream Soda, simply because it is my favorite color, pink. Whenever I think if cream soda the first thing I think of is the color pink. I think of the color of the bubbles, can, and pop itself. This look is a pretty simple look. Very wearable for any day of the week.

Todays Look... Orange Crush

If you follow me on twitter, earlier today I had said that today is my Dare to Bare day. My one day of the week I go with no makeup. However I found out a couple hours later I was to go out for dinner with my boyfriend and his family. I quickly ran to the washroom and quickly threw this together.

 

I ended up really liking the look so I decided last minute to take a couple pictures and make it today's look.

Today's Look... Spring Fling!

Although it has been quite rainy and grey recently (at least where I am) I wanted to do something that was a little lighter, and felt and little more like a sunny spring! I also wanted to finally use the Modern Basic Beauty 5 Shade Pink Palette I got from the hair show.

It's a pretty simple look. Took very little time. Here's what I came up with...

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.
