2/4/08 - i got sMACked!

[entipy]

I completely understand that it looks like someone punched me in the eyes this morning. What can I say? Once it got to the point where that was obvious, I was committed because of time restraints. So, I made the best of it, and here it is!

Mondays still suck...

Oh, and I don't think using Bare Canvas paint as part of my undereye concealing process is the best notion. (I got that idea from an EnKore tut in which he used Painterly Paint Pot.)

FACE:
primer - Monistat Soothing Care Chafing Relief Powder Gel
concealer - MAD: Medium, MAC: Bare Canvas paint (under eyes)
foundation - MAD: Natural Medium and Natural Light Medium
finisher - MAD: Translucent Veil and SPF Powder
blush - MAC: Dollymix
highlight - MAD: Flash Glow

EYES: (all MAC unless stated)
UDPP, Ben Nye MagiColor Creme pencil: White - lower lashline as a base
e/s - Accent Red - inner lid, inner crease over to lower outer browbone, inner lower lashline
e/s - Coppering - inner crease over to lower outer browbone over Accent Red
e/s - Sweet Sienna - middle & outer lid, middle lower lashline
e/s - Blue Brown - crease
e/s - Flashtrack - outer crease, outer v, outer lower lashline
e/s - Mylar - highlight
e/l - Blitz & Glitz - upper lashline, lower lashline - smudged with colors
brows - Smashbox Brow Tech: Smashing Taupe
mascara - L'Oreal Voluminous: Carbon Black, Maybelline Great Lash: Blackest Black

LIPS:
l/g - MAC LustreGlass: Love Nectar

This one's a little blurry. Meh.

Okay, maybe if I could just show this side of my face to people and not close my eyes or blink all day??

This is how I feel about it.

Usually I only save the diagram version of this pic, but it really does show off all the colors best, and my diagram today has so many lines on it, I thought some might want to see the pic without it. LOL.

Thanks for bearing with me and my punched look! Hopefully tomorrow will be better! LOL!

Thanks!

Well, I've always wanted to do it this way. It also saved me some pain in the mornings from scrunching my curly hair!

I don't think you look as if you got punched at all,
you actually look rather pretty!

 

[Miss_M]

Very pretty !!

[hotpink1326]

You are so tough on yourself!! I think you look beautiful today but then again, you are *always* beautiful to ME!!!

Also, it must be nice to not have to worry about doing your hair at all anymore!!! Now you have more time for makeup

Since you originally inspired me to wear my hair curly... i blame you for my mornings that i run late, hehe!!

It *is* nice not to have to worry about fixing my hair, and you'd think it would give me more time, right? However, I still always seem to be running late and rushing around!! LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Thank you, Carly....
