Painters Tape: My New Best Friend!

After my crazy "Galaxy" eyes last night, I was feeling inspired.  I've also noticed that a big trend right now, is having a pop of color on the inner part of the eye... and I so wanted to give it a try!  So, this morning, I got out my blue painters tape, taped off the side (gives you a nice crisp edge) and went to work.





Crazy Face!

And a close up!

Really, it was much calmer than I originally thought it would be.  I tend to get carried away sometimes.. haha!  Sorry about the hairs going in to my eyes... I didn't have my hair pinned back.

Here's what I used:
Revlon Colorstay Foundation in Buff Chamois
Dinair and Stream Airbrush foundation
CC Blush in Naughty Girl
CC Bronzer
BE Mineral Veil

Smashbox Photo Finish Lip Primer
NYX JEP in Milk
Ulta Eyeshadow in Bone
Geek Chic Eyeshadow in The Spider
Geek Chic Eyeshadow in Solid Snake
Coastal Scents Hot Pot in ME07 (From Winterberry Pallet)
NYX Black Eyeliner
Inglots Gel Eyeliner in 77-Black
NYX Eyeshadow in Black
Cover Girl Lashblast Mascara in Very Black

ELF Lipstick in Gypsy
BE Buxom Lipgloss in Hope

On the news this morning they talked about a study that was done.  Around 1/3 of all bosses/employers do NOT like it when a woman comes to work with bright eye makeup or red lips.  What do you think about that?  I'm glad I work at a salon where I am encouraged to do those things!

I'll be out of town for Thanksgiving so I probably will not be posting while I'm away!  I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!

BE Beauty Oasis - Easter Look

During my shopping spree at BE Outlet, I picked this baby up. I saw the jars and thought, "WOW!... this is gorgeous!" After I swatched these, I couldn't wait to wear them. I did have some difficulty getting Jade to blend without coming off. So... I actually replaced Jade with About Face's Acidic Reign instead. I also used the blush and gloss from the BE Urban Vibe kit with NYX lipliner in Dolly Pink. My boyfriend told me I looked "innocent." haha! I absolutely LOVED this look and I'm pretty sure I'm going to do it again, soon!








Thanks for stopping by!

BE Haul!

Back in September I stumbled across a Bare Escentuals store here in Vegas. My bf was with me and I told him I HAD to go in! I love seeing all the little pots of eye colors. Our 6 month anniversary rolled around in November, and what did I get as a gift?... a gift card to BE! So, its been almost 6 months and I had yet to use it. I hate to drag him into stores when I'm looking at makeup because he could be waiting for a long time. Last week, I did the Las Vegas AIDS walk which was held by one of our outlet malls. After the walk, Ling and I decided to go browse around. And guess what I saw!... a BE OUTLET STORE!! I didn't know they even existed! We didn't go in, because I looked like poop after walking a few miles in the heat. I made it a priority to go this week. I got off work early on Friday, so I decided to go. Bad idea. Traffic was horrible and all the tourist were hitting up the mall in full force. I was so grumpy by the time I finished all my other shopping that I debated even stopping in. I finally found the store (it's in a weird little hidden area) and went in. AMAZING! They carry regular line stuff but of course they carry discounted stuff as well. I walked out of there spending a total of $65 (gc + my money). I think I got some pretty awesome deals! Here is what I got!

Face Fashion - Urban Vibe


Face Fashion - Classic Glam

Beauty Oasis Set


Angled Blush Brush
I had purchased this brush a few years ago to use with Warmth, and as you will see... I've worn it out. It was one of the things I HAD to have when I went shopping. The first time I got one, I paid more than TWICE what I paid on Friday. Plus it came in a cute little brush pouch.

Liner Shadow Quads II and III


And last, but not least... the GWP!

I got so much stuff and I couldn't be happier with my selection. Now I have to just keep myself from going there once a week!

What do you think of the colors and/or BE?
