Victoria Secret Sets

Never had the chance of using VS before but these looked really pretty. Just happened to see the eye shadow set and looked it up. The prices are pretty reasonable too. I'm really interested in the Hypergloss Eye Shimmer. They have some cute gift sets on the VS website too. You should check those out as well.

Thanksgiving Look: Tutorial


MMMmmm Turkey Day. To create a Thanksgiving look, I thought about the warm colors of.....the turkey. Yes, turkey. Brown, black and gold. Feathers that is. Complete the look with a nice wing to go along with a turkey wing. Eh, let's face it. Coming up with a "turkey" look can go wrong in so many different ways, so let's go simple and focus on the warm colors of the holiday. Goes well with the stuffing, I might add :)




Products Used:
  1. Urban Decay Primer Potion - Original
  2. Too Faced "Natural Eye" Palette - Fashion Trio - Nude Beach, Honey Pot, Cocoa Puff
  3. Bare Minerals Eye Liner - Black Leather - loose powder
  4. Makeup Forever Aqua Eyes Eye Liner - 0L black
  5. Sephora Mascara Lash Extender - Black
Tools Used: Eye:
  1. Eye Shadow Brush - Medium
  2. Eye Shadow Brush - Small
  3. Crease Brush
  4. Smudge Brush
  5. Angle Eye Liner Brush
How to:
  1. Apply eye primer all over lid, from lash line to eyebrow.
  2. Using medium eye shadow brush, apply color "Nude Beach" under brow to the crease.
  3. Using small eye shadow brush, apply color "Honey Pot"  to inner corner of eye to center of eye lid.
  4. Using small eye shadow brush, apply color "Cocoa Puff" to outer corner of eye meeting up with "Honey Pot" and blend up into crease.
  5. Blend crease with crease brush. Reapply colors as needed to create as much depth as you desire.
  6. Wet angle eye liner brush and apply "Black Leather" to top lash line. Extend line to outer corner and wing line. Thicken line as you go out. Takes some practice to do, or you can use a liquid liner or pencil.
  7. Apply "0L" to lower lash line and water line. Smudge with smudge brush.
  8. Apply "Cocoa Puff" to outer 1/3 lower lash line and apply "Honey Pot" to inner corner, meeting the two colors together. Can use smudge brush or small eye shadow brush.
  9. Finish look with 2 coats of mascara on top lashes and one on bottom.

Too Faced Sets

Enchanted Holiday 2010 collection

Such a super cute collection. Little pin-up pixie girls. ACK..can it get any cuter than that? I want to be a pin-up pixie LOL One of these palettes should transform me into one in no time.



Enchanted Glamourland

Enchanted Glamourland
$49
Limited Edition

A palette with pop up features of pixies. It's definitely a collectors item. It has 15 eye shadows and a FULL sized Shadow Insurance Primer. One of the best eye shadow primers in my opinion. That 1 thing is the main reason why I would want to get this set. Also comes with a lip gloss, blush, and bronzer. Some eye shadows are new and especially made for the holidays, such as the 4 "exclusives". This would be my first pick out of the 4 sets.

The smallest and most convenient of the bunch. The Glamour to Go palette is great for throwing in your purse for touch ups throughout the day. The packaging alone is too cute for words, with the silhouette of a fairy and butterflies all around her. The lid opens up to a mirror with 8 pigmented eye shadows, and a pull out drawer with a lip gloss, blush and bronzer. All color coordinated to create the perfect pixie look. Get a couple for stocking stuffers.

Inspiration Pic: Holidays

I'm looking forward to all the fancy Holiday looks that are coming. I can see bright colored jewel tones, navy blues and the snowiest of whites. Crimson lips and sparkly eyes. And last but not least, rosy cheeks.
