Look of the Day! Urban Decay BOS III - Candy Girl

Back in action!  I've been doing better with my updates!  I'm a little under the weather but still hanging in there.   Today I did this look using the second row of my BOS collection.  It came out pretty cute but I'm so over all of the shimmer.  The Midnight Cowboy Rides Again color was the fall-out culprit.  If you like the look, keep reading to find out what I used!

Eyes:
Make Up For Ever Eyebrow Corrector in 4 (used to fill in brows)

Look of the Day! Urban Decay BOS III - Fully Loaded

I've been having fun trying out my BOS collection.  I decided to try to each row together to see what looks I could come up with. For this look I used the top row of the colletion. 

The shadows I used were very pigmented and did not require a lot of building up.  The only color that had a lot of fall-out was UZI.  The little chunks of glitter were kinda annoying and to be honest, I probably won't use this color again any time soon.  It is still a really pretty color though. Keep reading to see a list of products and additional pictures.

Urban Decay Book of Shadows Volume III Haul!

So I've been kinda neglecting Sephora lately because MAC has decided to release a collection every five seconds or so and I've gotten sucked into the madness of it all.  However, no matter how long I stay away, I always seem to come back to my true love, Sephora.  This time I came back for my first ever Book of Shadows!  I was never really into Urban Decay before so I had never purchased any of the BOS collections.  I'm glad I finally "got with the program" because I'm uber excited!

Keep Reading for more pictures, information and swatches of course!

Look of the Day! Tulips

Hey!  Here I am with another look of the day post.  I'm all about the lips right now as I have fallen head over heals in love with lipstick. I don't know what happened to this lip gloss girl but I'm cheating fierce with my lippies.  Wanna join me on my lipstick journey?  Well why not right!  I tried a two toned look today and I liked it a lot so I thought I would share it.  I used MAC Brick Lip Liner, MAC Ruby Woo Lipstick and MAC Show Orchid Lipstick.  I used a lip brush to apply both colors and blended them together. 

Ruby Woo, Show Orchid

 

Hope you all like it! I think I could have done a better job with the blending but I like the effect overall.  So, what lip combo's are you loving?

Georgia Peach! CCO Haul

Hi Everyone!  I missed posting and currrently am sucking as a blogger.  I was visiting my relatives in Georgia and had an awesome time but before I left, my laptop broke and I hate working off of the desktop.  I am now asking my 2 year old to borrow his laptop...sad days guys, sad days!  I can't really crop and edit my pics on this computer so I'll just do a quick haul post.  I got to visit South Carolina while I was on my trip and low and behold they had a CCO.  Seriously!  I was supremely excited but I vowed to cut back on my makeup splurges so I only hauled 3 things.  I got MAC's Trimming Talk Lipstick,  Reflects Bronze Pigment and Sweet and Nice Tendertone.  I am obsessed with all of the products but the smell of the Tendertone is kinda turning me off....

Well I hope to get a new laptop soon and resume my usual makeup banter.


So until next time, stay gorgeous!
