Its amazing how many looks you can accumulate in just a few days. I had some of my own stashed away I was waiting to post here since I don't want to post a new thread every time I have a new look but I also have two prom looks I did -- however I wish my camera didn't ruin the quality because it was either blurry without me knowing or the flash drained everything.
So, just to catch ya up to speed, I discovered the awesome powers of NYX jumbo pencils as well as a number of other NYX products, Jordana, LA Colors, Ardell, LA Splash, Urban Decay and Kat Von D. Of course I haven't had a chance to try everything I've gotten but here is some of the new stuff I've done which include a few tutorials. (In no specific order)

NOW, quick details on the two prom looks yesterday. I was tired, stressed and above all else ANGRY that my ex was not only hovering over me trying to make me hurry up but also decided that him and his girlfriend (who is my best friend) and my other friend, Mariah were going to use my house to get ready for prom. So the reason why I'm explaining all this is because I didn't get a chance to get good shots at all.
Mariah wanted something simple and subtle... and since I didn't know what on earth that meant she had to spell it out for me.
This looked a lot better in person, sadly. My camera ruins pictures and lives.
Now Caitlin is my "punching bag" sort of speak and is my test dummy and I am very familiar with how things will look on her but I can't lie, I wasn't feeling this as well as I had hoped. People texted me telling me it looked amazing but I guess I just didn't have the time I wanted. Her makeup is based off of Beyonce's look from her new music video "Why Don't You Love Me?" (Can't remember what I used for Mariah or Caitlin, sorry!)
Now this is my "prom" look I did after the madness was over yesterday in order to blow off some steam. I say its my prom look because I've never been to prom and I recently got my GED so pretty much I'll never have the chance to go.

NYX Orange jumbo pencil (just for the appearance, not to wear)
Now this one is pretty fresh, just a few hours old. About a month ago, I did a gag video to a song called "Mommy Complex" by Peaches and I used makeup that's pretty much the same style as this and I got a lot of requests to re-do it for a video and since it is Mother's Day, it'd be perfect timing!

WELL, sorry about totally swamping a ton of looks all into one thread and thanks for putting up with my endless talking. Hopefully I can pull some people for Senior Ball soon that are wearing colored dressed because honestly, white/black dresses feel so dull. I mean they look pretty but I'd like to wake up excited to do their makeup rather than waking up and absolutely dreading their arrival.
Thanks for looking, see ya next time!
