A Splash of Purple

Me taking pics at work again...but I just received great news that I got the job I have been waiting for.  It is close to home, good pay and back in my field (graphics)...so I'm excited!  I start Monday, so I need to make sure the makeup is on point!  Below is my purple look:

~ True Colors- "Caribbean Sunrise (2nd to last shadow from bottom of stack) ->link below

http://www.truecolors.com/products/index.php?l=product_detail&p=6

~ Applied "Storm" from Mary Kay on outer corners of eyes and blended

~ Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner

~Maybelline "Define A Lash" mascara in black

~For highlight under brow, applied Mary Kay "Moonstone" eyeshadow

Orange Juice Thursday

Playing around with some more color, I decided to try my "Authentic" by OCC, then used "Espresso" by Mary Kay on the outer side of the lid.  Though it's described as a copper color, it looks like orange on my skin...so what do you do????  Wear something to match it! lol

After seeing these pics, I realized that I need some color to those lips, so I'll probably go with something neutral.

My Stash

Sorry I haven't blogged in awhile.  I wanted to show you the stack of eyeshadows that I purchased from Glamourdolleyes:

Unfortunately, though the colors are awesome, the stack itself was kind of small.  I guess I am used to the stacks from "True Colors".  See the difference with the two side by side???

I know I don't need any more eyeshadows, I went a little crazy when I found "True Colors".  I bought 20 stacks....yeah 20!!!  And in each stack, there are 8 colors (though some colors may repeat, it's still worth it)  Here is my makeup drawer (which I can't get much more in anymore, I need a few shelfs maybe)  hehehe

And here are the 20 stacks, I don't regret having to do a little payment plan for these....

And here are a few styles that I have used these colors...just playing around :)

Oh How I Love Friday

Good morning!  I woke up excited because I can try my new eyeshadow that I bought from Glamourdolleyes.  The colors are so pretty.  I bought a stack of five with the following colors: Chocoholic, Ladies Night, Lovers Lane, Phyrra and Veteran.  I think my next color to buy from them will be "Tattooed".  So, this morning I tried Phyrra blended to Veteran...

Don't ask me my I'm wearing a pink shirt, because it doesn't match!  lol, oh well! I'll upload a pic of the colors this evening so you can see them, very vibrant!  Have a good one!
