In the Caribbean

I was trying to create a different look than what I created, but I am diggin' this...it turned out looking like I took these colors straight from my surroundings while sitting in the Caribbean. (I wish!)

I also tried to clean up those things that I call eyebrows as well.  If you have noticed, I just did everything around the brows and didn't mess with them. So here is the first time I tried working on them.

~First, I applied Too-Faced Shadow Insurance to my whole lid, then took a lime green loose eyeshadow (generic brand-got it on Ebay) and patted it on the inner corner of my lid.

~Then I took a lavender color and patted it right next to the lime green (just a little to show the color next to the green)

(4th from top)

~After that, I placed a bright blue in the middle of my lid

(3rd from bottom)

~Then I took the pink from the same stack above (4th from top) and dusted that from my crease and faded it up, stopping at my brow bone.

~ Lastly, I took a color I just purchased from Fyrinnae (Wicked) which is a beautiful purplish-blue color and swept that on my crease, from the blue and overlapping some of the pink (I found out that pink does NOT look good on me by itself!)

~Then I blended the colors, from lightest to darkest, but not much, for I wanted to show all the colors.

~After that, I applied black gel liner to my upper lids, and on my water line on my lower lid, then applied black mascara by Maybelline-Falsies.

~Then I swept a little bronzer on my cheeks and down my nose.

I hope you like it....I had a lot of fun doing this look! Thanks for stopping by!

I've Got The Blues...(and Greens)

And here's another bold look.  And it was kind of funny to see people's faces when I turned to them and they saw all of that loud eyeshadow...lol.  But here are a few pics of my look...

 

Here is what I used...

~ First, I started out with Too Faced Eye Insurance on my whole lid, then used NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk

~Then I patted on a shimmery seafoam green on the inner part of my lid (second from bottom in the "Earth" stack from True Colors.

~ After that, I patted on a turquoise from the "Caribbean Sunrise" stack from True Colors (last color on bottom) on the middle to outer part of my lid.

~ Then I took the jet matte black from the "Racy Pink" stack (last on bottom) and patted that on the outer lid, then following the crease to the middle of the lid.

~ Then I took my fluffy brush and blended the colors together, then added lime green glitter (with a glitter adhesive) to the inner lid - on top of the green.

~ After I finished with the color, then I dusted on some powder, and blush (a few shades darker than my skin) under my "non-existent" cheek bones :)

~ Lastly, I applied black gel liner to the top and bottom lashes, then "Falsies" mascara in black.

Hope you enjoy!!!!  If you don't.....WHATEVER!!!

Red, White & Blue

One of my co-workers asked if I could do this look today - red, white and blue.  I was actually a little scared, because I didn't know if I could pull off those crazy colors on my eyes!  But it wasn't too bad.  Not exactly a subtle look though...

 

~ On the inner corner of the lid, I used a silver from the True Colors Racy Pink stack:

(first one in stack)

~ Then I used Lovers Lane from Glamour Doll Eyes in the center of my lid

 

(it looks very red on the pic, but on my skin, it has a brown tint to it)

~ Then on the outer lid, I used "Sea and Sky Mineralize" from Mac

 

~ Then blended the white-silver color towards the red (very carefully, so I won't blend it too much and lose the red), then blended the blue to the red with another brush, and using that same brush, I swept it under my lower lashes.

~ After that, I used black gel liner, then finished it up with Maybelline's "Falsies" mascara.

Hope you like it....thanks for stopping by!
