Peach Parfait-fotd

It has been a wonderful few weeks thanks to winter break. Sadly it's about to end in a week which means back to the daily grind. I still have to reschedule my classes and get my license which will be stressful. I'm hoping to get a job soon too, but that doesn't mean I won't be blogging. I love make-up, so I hope I get a job doing it but it's more likely it will be in retail. Hey, this means I'll have money to actually buy giveaway prizes.

I hope you guys don't mind me talking about my boring life haha.

What I used:

Eyes-

TFSI

Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy

Femme Fatale cosmetics e/s in Archangel (Shimmery ivory with purple duo chrome used on the inner corner of the lid from the crease to the brow bone.)

Femme Fatale cosmetics e/s in Ignite (A medium orange/peach placed on the lid and blended gently upwards.)

Femme Fatale cosmetics e/s in Shooting Star (Light purple blended onto the crease and on the lower lid.)

Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Randsom (Purple used on the lower lash line.)

Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Perversion

Almay liquid eyeliner in black

Tarte Lights! Camera! Lashes!

lips-

Milani lipstick in Mango Mamba (Orange red rubbed lightly onto the lips.)

Nyx Round Lipstick in Echoe (Creamy beige used on the center of the lip and blended by rubbing my lips together to create a creamy-peach color.)

I haven't worn peach in a while, nor have I done a blended out crease in a while. I love well blended creases especially on other people but or some reason I never do them on myself. The swatches I've been promising will be up tomorrow, horray! I have to do a Darling Girl swatch set next since I love Darling Girl so much. I can't wait till DG opens I'd really like to get Glitter Glue. Mai of Portrait of Mai sent me some of her Glitter Glue after I talked about needing a different base for my Diamond Dust eyeshadows. I wore it the other day with DG's Woodsprite, there was no creasing and it worked with matte shadow I used in the crease. Yay! I'll write a more in-depth review soon. Thanks for the read!

Berry Port and Wassel-fotd

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas and Happy Yule! I hope everyone had a good Holiday! I spent half of my Christmas Eve with my fiance's family and the other with mine. This meant I had to eat twice as much food, goodness gracious. I hope you all got to eat as much as I did. Now my fiance and I are having Trek-mas, we're watching as much of Voyager as we can until we go out for the evening.

Would you guys be interested in seeing the make-up I did on my sister-in-law? She actually drove me the block home so I could grab my make-up kit and do her eye make-up. She wears a lot of black eyeshadow so I changed it up by using something different. She loved it and showed everyone in the family.I may even be doing my Mother-In-Law's make-up soon which is going to be a bit nerve wracking. (You can probably guess why...)

Well anyway Happy Holidays again!

How Many Looks Can You Call Sugar Plum Fairy?-fotd

Yay another purple look! I can't help it, I've been in a very purple type of mood these past few days. I was hoping to use a lighter, softer pink but I apparently don't own a that color! I expressed this concern to my fiance and he gave me a withering look then said "No. No more make-up." B-but I wasn't even going to buy any I swear!

What I Used:

Eyes-

Morgana Cryptoria Lipstick in Roses and Violets

I wore this yesterday out to the mall and I was given several compliments. Today I'm wearing a quick gold look that's kind of unimpressive. I wish I could wear purple eyeshadow every day. I have enough purples to do it haha. What's your favorite eyeshadow color to wear?

Tainted Violet Carols-fotd

I have a bit of a perfectionist streak in me. When I do something like my make-up, draw or write a story I expect everything to be perfect the first time I do it. I don't write outlines nor do I draw face charts unless they are for someone else's make-up. My perfectionist streak is preventing me from showing the close ups of the eye. I don't like using photoshop to edit pictures so whatever you see is all my work. I am a person who has flaws but sometimes I am thankfully for this perfectionist flaw. I don't think I would have pushed myself to improve my make-up skills. Oh goodness sorry about the ramble. I'm usually light hearted but the Holidays always put things into perspective for me.

Thank you for reading my inane ramblings. I know sometimes my blog posts can be like "Wtf?What is she even talking about now? Shut up and get to the look." I just feel that's important to share things with ya'll so you don't think I'm some untouchable mystery. I don't like it when other bloggers talk down to their readers or don't share stuff with them. We're all sharing one small space called planet Earth why not get to know one another. Oh jeez, I'm doing it again, rambling. Thank you for reading!

Holly Daze-fotd

I am not in the Holiday spirit at all. There is no snow on the ground, though there is Christmas music in the air. I really hope it snows soon even though my fiance keeps cursing me for even suggesting it. Yule is on the 22th and Christmas is on the 24th so lets hope I get in the Holiday mood soon. Are you guys feeling excited for the Holidays? What should I do to get myself in the mood? I could really use the advice!

Blue Monday, Grey Tuesday-fotd

My Darling Girl Cosmetics order arrived yesterday! I wasn't even able to touch it till today which sucked. This semester is nearly over which means I will be able to do more looks and write more reviews. I only have two more exams to do and then I am home free. This break is going to be awesome.

Hidden Presents and Bronys-fotd

Wednesday was my birthday, I turned twenty four which is surprising to me. In many ways I feel a lot younger then I actually am. I used to be told I very mature for my age when I was a child because I had a lot of responsibilities. Now adults raise their eyebrows and shake their head at me since I keep hopping majors. I still have no idea what I want to be when I grow up, sadly magical fairy princess is out of the running since that job was taken off the market years ago. I hope this year will give me some clarity into who I am and what I'm doing with my life. Now that the some what "deep" portion of the blog is over lets talk about vanity! Whoo!

What I used:

Eyes-

TFSI

Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy

I.+T.A. e/s in Hidden Present (An army green with pink sparkles used all over the lid.)

lips-

Morgana Cryptoria lipstick in Roses and Violets

Too Faced Glamour 2 Go Dream edition lip gloss (Bright sheer pink with blue duo-chrome.)

My parents bought me a My Little Pony castle for my birthday...I told you I'm immature. I was pretty pleased since my friends and I are collecting My Little Pony's. We all had kinda tough childhoods so we're reliving it through toys. It's therapy without having to pay someone, we bitch and moan whilst making Flutter Shy and Rainbow Dash gallop around. Yes we're all college students and in our twenties but you know what, go play with your old toys and see how much fun it is. Especially now that your play stories can be really complex. My brother who is twenty one wants there to be boy ponies so he can play. I'm turned him into a brony!

Do you still play with toys or do something that you know is a bit immature for you to do? And if you haven't what's stopping you? Age is just a number!

The Vixen Next Door-fotd

The new challenge in the facebook group Never Too Much Sparkle this week was Old Hollywood. Instead of going for the sexy pin-up style look with red lips I wanted to do something different. I watched Gone With the Wind recently and Scarlett O'Hara's pink glossy lips were so inviting I knew I had to copy the look. Though my eyeshadow is more intense then Scarlett's haha.

What I used:

I'm still writing those papers, oof, I hate writing essays. I'm a terrible ex- English student. One is two pages long while the other one is six. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go and put on my writing boots. Bye!

Janeway's Fire-fotd

If you read my twitter you'd know that my fiance and I are currently watching Star Trek Voyager. Voyager has to be one of my favorite Star Trek's, it was actually the first Star Trek I had ever watched. I caught many a episode on Spike when they were showing reruns. Though I had never watched the series completely I did enjoy the smattering of episodes I watched.

I am completely in love with Captain Kathryn Janeway. Not only is she as smart as a whip but she is compassionate. Even though she and her crew are stuck in the far off Delta quadrant she still shows immense grace and poise under pressure. I just...I just freaking love her character okay? This look is based off of Janeway's drive and firey passion for her crew. I even used a similar color to her trade mark neutral red lipstick. (It goes with her Starfleet uniform!) I mean come on, how many other Starfleet Captains can say they turned a Borg into a member of their crew? Not even Picard could do that.

What I used:

Voyager is on Netflixs right now. You can watch the whole series from start to finish without breaking any laws. Did you guys hear they are remastering Next Gen? It's coming out on blue ray soonish! That means you get to watch Wil Wheaton and his many colored sweaters in HD! Whooo!

Incase you didn't notice by the pictures my camera is back! I'm so happy, I missed it so much. Now I can do close up shots of my make-up again which with my Mother's camera looked pretty crappy. Now if you'll excuse me I have two papers I need to write, off to study-study land I go!
