FOTD: I haz Inglotz.

Well, I've HAD Inglot for a while and have been too scared to have a play ><

I was inspired by Ruthy at Ruth's Make-up who did a really lovely summery blue look yesterday, and wanted to try my hand at it. The only problem I had was that the bright blue was coming out a bit patchy, and more so in photos, grrr! Anyway, here's what I came up with!

FACE:
- Physician's Formula Tinted Moisturizer in Fair to Light
- Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer in Light
- Maybelline SuperStay concealer in Cream
- Mac MSF Natural in Light Medium
- Physician's Formula Happy Booster blush in Natural

EYES:
- Too Faced Shadow Insurance
- NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk
- Inglot eyeshadow #371
- Inglot eyeshadow #31
- Ben Nye eyeshadow in Ice
- Physician's Formula gel liner (black from the original blue eyes set)
- Maybelline Lash Stiletto mascara (Brownish Black)

LIPS:
- Maybelline lipstick in Pink Please
- NYX gloss in Chandelier

FOTD: New Year's Eve!

I know everyone and their mom is posting their New Year's Eve makeup so I'll just join the happy club.

Bear in mind that I've only ever worn false lashes 3 times (including last night) in my life... the first was before I knew how to do makeup, at all, and they were untrimmed and terrible. The second was for my Lady Gaga costume and those were sorta ok-ish. Last night I had an issue with the inner corners staying glued down! I was sure to put extra glue there and then even went back in to re-glue them and they just wouldn't stay. I think it's my eye shape. Even though I trimmed them down, I think my lashes turn up or something on the inner corners so the falsies have nothing to adhere to.

Anyway, here it is. I used the sample of Mac 3D Silver glitter that Robyn sent me... holy cow, it is glittery but MESSY. Still loved the look :)

It's a little headband from Forever21, though they are popular at the moment so you could find a similar one anywhere.

Last part of the post is what I made last night! I actually cooked some appetizers and things... homemade oreo truffles, buffalo chicken dip, stuffed jalapenos and a vegetable crescent roll twist. Rob fried up some jalapeno "coins" as well and made a lovely dipping sauce.



















Hope you had a good New Year's and I am SO looking forward to 2011!
