    Cranberry eye

    I wore this to spend the day with my BF, and we ended up spending the majority of it with his mom and grandma as well. You can find a tutorial for this in the links in my signature. Face: Olay Complete moisturizer Smashbox Photo Finish Color Correcting Primer in...

    Marinello?

    I'm considering Marinello for both manicuring and esthetics. I already do work as a MUA, but am really interested in doing more. Hair doesn't appeal to me, so a full cosmetology course is out, no matter the school. But I'm curious to know if any of you have any experience with the Marinello...

    Golden blue

    I did this look to celebrate my mom's, grandpa's, and brother's birthdays. My mom and grandpa share one (on the 23rd) and my brother's is 2 days before that. Then my daughter went off with her dad's family for Easter (because holds religious significance for them and it doesn't for me), so I...

    Bring on the bronze!

    Not much to say about this one... Simple day. My mom took my daughter overnight so I spent it with my guy. For the look, I just wanted bronzed skin and eyeshadow that contrasted with my eye color. I think I achieved both. I had thought of adding MAC Teddy eye kohl to my waterline, but opted not...

    Maybe a little bit like an Easter egg

    I wore this to an Easter egg hunt with my mom group/friends. I unfortunately spaced on getting a closed eye shot, but you aren't missing anything that you can't see with my eye open. Face: Olay Complete moisturizer Smashbox Photo Finish Color Correcting Primer...

    Ra ra! Go gold and black!

    When I first did this look, I didn't realize that I was using my high school colors, but I was! I just wanted to do a gold and black look, I promise ;) I just wore this for a night of drinking, while my daughter was out of town visiting her dad. Face: Olay...

    Another day in the city

    I wore this on a fabulous day trip to San Francisco to the Academy of Sciences, followed by Joe's Crab Shack for dinner. I didn't have an eyeshadow in the color I was wanting, so I opted to use a couple of blushes instead. I can't recall what brown I used on my lower lash line, unfortunately...

    Never would have guessed

    I actually got the inspiration for this from a Lil Wayne video that I randomly saw. I have no idea what the song was, as I'm not really a fan of his and wasn't paying attention to the music. But I liked the makeup LOL. I wore it with the purple top shown, which I believe came from Old Navy a...

    Saying goodbye

    This was worn on the day that my daughter and I were getting her all packed up for her trip to see her dad (and her first time on an airplane), and then once she left with her grandma, I went to hang out with a friend for the evening. Face: Olay Complete...

    The similarities are purely coincidental

    Lately I've been making it a point to use my 88 and 78 palette more. I always see name brand colors that I crave, but then a few weeks later I'll randomly scan my palettes and see that I have something super similar already. For example, I kept telling myself (for the last 3 months) that I need...

    Super simple date look

    Super simple date look I wore this on a movie date a couple of nights ago (to see Sucker Punch). I was going for something similar to this. It kind of went with my new manicure, so that's why I chose that one. Face: Olay Complete moisturizer...

    Two weeks into Axxium manicure

    Here's my 2 week Axxium update. If you missed the 1 week update, you can check it out here. Aside from the regrowth, they look pretty good! The tips of my nails have gotten like, microscopic snags that I've had to pick off, but I haven't broken a nail which is big for me considering how weak...

    My St Patrick's Day look

    This is what I wore to a St Patrick's Day party :) Thanks to my awesomely lovely friend, Whitney, for providing the green wig (Walmart). I added the hat myself, which I think is from Claire's, but might be from Torrid. My mom got me the green earrings, but I'm not sure where...

    Silly Sunday

    I got the inspiration for this from Jessica Harlow :) Unfortunately I forgot mascara on my bottom lashes again :/ And for the lip color, I used Honey Love and then dabbed Pink Plaid on top of it, then did the gloss. Here's how I curled my hair Here's the makeup and hair all...

    A look for prom-goers

    I did this look as a prom makeup suggestion for someone on my fan page who had asked me for a recommendation for her daughter, and sent me pictures of her daughter, the dress, and the shoes. I hope she likes this! Originally I was going to do this with just a plain, metallic silver eyeshadow...

    Another St. Patrick's Day look

    I did another look for St. Patrick's Day, but didn't do any sort of tutorial with it. Sorry! I don't love these pictures because my hair was super flat today, but oh well. This one is really easy. Wondergrass all over the lid, a little bit of Velvet Moss in the crease, and then Velvet Moss on...

    Sweet Cuvee

    A few weeks ago I had an idea for my gal pals to go tasting at Korbel Champagne Cellars, which is located here in Sonoma County. I enjoy Korbel, but have never been there to taste or tour. A couple of days ago we got our little group together and went. So fun! I liked almost everything I tasted...
