This is the fourth look I'm posting in my NFL series. I was aching to use my teal glitter so I asked my boyfriend which teams, if any, have teal as one of their colors. He told me that the Jacksonville Jaguars do, so here's a look using their colors; teal, gold, black, and white. Enjoy...

NFL: Steelers inspired This look was inspired by the Steelers for my NFL series. Rather than using the uniform colors (black and gold) I used the logo colors (blue, yellow, red, and silver). Foundation & Concealer: Make Up For Ever 5 Camouflage Cream Palette N1 - on...

This is the last look in this series and for it, I went a bit dark. This is a look I've done before, but used red instead of blue. I don't think I've ever done it with any color BUT red until now, so here it is! All I did for this one was use a dark blue cream eyeliner as a base, pack on...

This look was my first using the I Dream of Greenie palette by WnW. I got it a bit ago, but didn't open it or use it until I was done with my Petal Pusher mini series and my Blue Had Me At Hello series, just to ensure I got them done in a timely fashion. For this I used the lid color on my...

I wore this look when celebrating 6 months with my boyfriend. We took deli sandwiches, chips, and drinks to the beach for lunch and after eating took a little nap right there on a blanket. The weather was awesome! Then that evening we went out to dinner at the restaurant we ate at on our first...

This is the start of an NFL series I intend to do. I'm not sure how long it'll go on, or how many teams I'll do. I hope to do a good amount, but I'm not making any promises that I can't keep ;) Anywho, you can see the tutorial below for what I did to achieve this eye look. I didn't include the...

I apologize for the delay in posts... I had pinkeye! Anyway, this is the next in my NFL series. This time I did Denver Broncos and Chicago Bears, since the colors are so similar. I wore it to a Dove chocolate party. I have a tutorial for this... Check out the links in my signature to find it...

With this look, I realized that I was almost done with this mini-series and I hadn't used the silver much yet. It was time to do something about that! I started with silver on the inner corner, blended it into the teal, and then blended that into the more matte of the two blacks. I brought the...

This isn't the first time I've done a look like this - if you've followed my blog for a bit, you know that. But it's another eyeshadow placement that I really like so I decided to put this palette to use in creating it. I started with a pale blue eyeliner as a base (on top of my typical...

This look is the last in my mini series. It wasn't inspired by anything in particular, like some of the other looks in the series. I wanted to use the two purples on the bottom left of the palette, because I hadn't done much with them. And I had picked up a purple cream eyeliner that I wanted to...

All looks The first look in this series was my attempt at doing something I enjoy but rarely do. What is that? It's to add a bright color to the inner, upper crease area. I'm not sure why I don't do this much, I just don't. But I decided to do it here because the teal shade was just begging...

For this look I did a wash of the white, shimmery shade and then blended some of the lightest blue into my crease. I followed that with some of the teal color to give my crease a little more dimension. And that was it! I wanted a quick, simple look that day because I was running behind (car...

I wanted to do a smoky eye in this series, so here it is. Some may consider look #1 to fit the bill, because we all have different ideas of what a smoky eye is, but this look right here is what it is to me. For this look, I took the dark shimmery burgundy color and placed it at my upper lash...

This look is the "night" version of look #2. Day version was worn to the doctor, night version was worn to see my boyfriend. Also, the lighting looks a bit different in the two full face shots, Starting this look, I used the shimmery white shade from the palette as a wash on my upper...

This look was inspired by Sam Schuerman and a look she did a tutorial for on her YT channel. She used the same black that I did, but from a different WnW palette. She also used the same white that I did. The look is definitely inspired by her and shares a couple of the same products, but it is...

This look was inspired by Makeup Geek. She recently did a look where she took the traditional smoky eye and made the smoky on the lower lash line, and left the top lid nearly bare. Now, I've done looks like this before, but she's the one that inspired me to do it with this palette. For this...

This is the makeup I wore on my birthday (this past Friday, the 19th). Truth be told, I didn't do a ton that day. Just ran errands to prepare for my birthday party on Saturday, and I saw a musical stage production of Willy Wonka with my mom in the evening. I also filmed a little "day in the...

I wore this to a birthday party for my bestie's husband. I was inspired by a look from myeyeshadowisodd, though it reminds me of a look I did for Valentine's Day 2010. I was going to go more extreme with the look... Bigger, bolder lashes. Really bright lips. Brighter blush. But last minute I...

After some browsing here on Specktra a few days ago, I decided to do a look using blue. I don't typically go for blue, because I'm just not a fan. I don't love the color blue. But I was inspired and I know my boyfriend loves blue, so since I was seeing him that night, I decided to go for it. I'm...

I wore this to a small get together to celebrate my friend Yvette's 26 birthday :) I wanted to try out my new Almay trio from my Dollar Store trip. There's silver glitter in there, but you can't see it in the pictures. Foundation & Concealer: Graftobian HD...
