Updates and Haul

So I have a new job,YAY NEW JOB! I was under a lot of stress at my last job and it left me with little to no  energy at the end of the day. I needed a change and I have been enjoying the different feeling in the morning. So I have been getting back in to the swing of taking pictures of my looks, purchases, and really wearing makeup.

My collective haul

 So I wanted to buy these stila eye shadows as soon as I saw them at sephora. They remind me a lot of the inglot rainbow shadows. But these shadows were $22 each at sephora. That is more than I like to spend, but then I saw them on hautelook for $6 each, so of course I bought them.

This is my best attempt at swatches

Acoustic

Center stage

The picture of the purple one did not come out as well, but as you can see the shadows have so much color 

Light Show

These lashes I got at Walgreen's, This Disney collection includes some nice makeup bags, as well as elf nail polish, and elf eye shadow palettes

Ardell ursula lashes
$7.99

Ardell Malifecent lashes
$7.99

 This mascara, lipstick, the NYX eye shadow, the blue bag in the picture, and the black eyeliner in the picture are all from my IPSY bag this month. The eyeliner is nice and soft it is from a company called starlooks. I also received a facial mask the kind that is like a sheet of wet paper you lay on your face.

 There is also an MAC paint pot in layin low, this is closer to my natural skin tone.

Weekend Pictures

So I had a busy July and here are some pictures of my different makeup looks for the weekend

 I wore a dark silver and black Smokey eye with red lipstick

On this day I wore a matte white eye shadow, pink ,purple and green liner. Also a light pink lipstick.

This was my vintage day, I loved this dress. I wore a nude eye shadow. A matte red lipstick.
I have been horrible, at taking pictures. Most of these pictures are cropped from group shots.

Beauty boxes

Ipsy bag

It is only $10 a month and comes in this gorgeous pink envelope that makes you happy as soon as you see it. The bag includes a makeup bag every month, plus 5-6 products. I immediately liked this box. I think I enjoyed this box because most of the products are beauty products anyone could enjoy.

So this box included a perfume, zoya nail polish, shimmery lotion, lip gloss, and a concealer

 

New beauty test tube

This box is $38 every other month. I did not like this first box I felt personally there were too many hair products that did not go with my hair care regimen. Hair spray and a blow out spray, I think it was to add volume. I was sad but this box did grow on me over time.

 

This box included a shampoo and conditioner, two face wrap facials, moisturiser,exfoliating cream,  mini lip glosses, hair spray, and a blow out spray

This box also comes with two magazines. I also do not care for this new beauty magazine, It features allot of plastic surgery.  I do enjoy the magazine that talks about the products received, it tells you how to use all products and the history of the company.

 

I like both boxes currently and will update you on the other ones I have received.

Smokey eye and a hat

So as always I've been away a while I have taken some pictures and received my beauty boxes. I will post those next. I want to test some of the products.
 So this look is a smokey eye, with a bright red lip I wore one evening.
 The smokey eye was done with a grey, and black shadows

Look #1

 

 

Look #2

 I did this look with a purple myo pigment I received from ebay, a dark purple in the crease. I put white liner in the water line and black liner thru the lower lash line, lashes and allot of mascara. If I'm not mistaken the lipstick color is Chloe by NYX.

This is just a sneak preview

I love how the beauty boxes both came in pink.

NEON.... What else can I say

 I purchased some myo pigments on eBay, a few months ago and they were awesome. Then I noticed they also had neon shades and while I don't wear neons often. When you want one its good to have them. Let me tell you these shades do not disappoint. There are allot of pictures of this look because I really like how vibrant it was.

 They were also very bendable it looks like I put four colors on the lid then the blue, but it was three in the lid then the blue. These colors blended together so well they created a different color.

These pigments were reasonably priced, I paid $14. for 10 colors and I am happy I gave them a try. Looking on eBay today the set is $20. But a little goes a long way and I may still want to try other colors they have.

If any one is interested in checking them out here is the link:

In other makeup news I subscribed to two beauty boxes, ipsy, and test tube. So I should be getting new products on a more regular basis to review, or warn you about. I have been wanting to subscribe to a beauty box but I was nervous. But I have a friend who gets ipsy, and my aunt gets test tube so I'll try it out. They all seem to be easy to cancel if you change your mind. So ill keep you posted. 
That's all for today

Day to evening look

So sometimes you know in the morning you have multiple things to do and you wont really have time to redo your makeup for the evening but you would like it to be nice for say a wedding. That's where I was going, but I also wanted to be presentable for things I needed to handle in the morning.

In comes the day to night look

This is a simple grey look with a crease darkened with brown and black. presentable and wearable for the morning ( sorry I don't think I had on any lipstick for the full face picture) also transformable for the evening. Just add a simple line of glitter above the liner, a bright lip color, and lashes and your transformed for evening in less than 5min.

Blurple lotd

So I did this really simple look with a matte purple and matte blue shadow. I think it was from a wet and wild palette from a fergie eye kit. My lip tar is hoochie ( yes thats the name of the color) from obsessive compulsive cosmetics (occ) There is a brown thorough the crease and a highlight on the brow bone.

 

 

My hair was in a few cornrows over night. I have since dyed my hair, over the next few videos watch as my bangs turn more and more pinkish white. It gets bad before I actually dyed it.
