Ok, after 7 attempts at this look, I'm finally satisfied.   FYI the red is actually darker than it looks, flash just blew it out.  Also lashes look a little wonky because I threw them on in like 5 secs lol....I was tired after that many failed attempts!!

Catwoman Makeup

Ok I decided on Catwoman today.  I went with the classic comic book look (the purple and black one).  I plan on also doing a modern (Hailey Berry) one too (probably tonight). 


There are sooo many back stories and origin stories so I'm can't really go into detail.  Here's a tiny bit of info.

Superheroes

Another blogger and I (Sarah (http://eyelineraddict.blogspot.com/  go check her out too)  have decided to collaborate on a superhero/villain giant makeup post.  We will be taking turns turning female (and eventually possibly male) superheroes in a makeup look.  We may use their colors or try to recreate a look depending on how we want to channel them.  Please check back frequently as we will be posting every day/every other day.  Today I have chosen Wonder Woman and Sarah is doing Starfire.

Elf Haul & Review

Ok, here is my loooong ELF haul/review.

I had heard about ELF in the past but never thought much of it because I had never seen it in stores before.  Then after getting into makeup I started hearing about it a lot.  It's so cheap I figure I'd give it a try.  This was 3-4 orders worth of stuff (I always used coupons, 50% off, or a free item).

Tahitian Sunset

My inspiration for this look is

  

Mauve Madness

This is a quick look I did before running errands.  Look is natural and only takes about 10-15 min to do.

Purple Passion

Just a quick pic and list of products used.  There is no tutorial for this because I was in a hurry to get out the door.  These pics were actually taken 6 hours after makeup application and I had been walking around in the Cali heat.  Primers and HD Powder are amazing!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone!  I'm being extremely lazy today, watching movies, playing computer games and drinking beer!  ELF haul and review still to come.  I ordered the 100 color palette and the complexion perfection powders and they came shattered!  So I wrote ELF and am still waiting to hear back.  So Far from the swatches I did of the palette I'm not really impressed.  A couple of the colors have 0 color.  Nothing comes off on my finger or brush.  I even scratched into it and then took the powder and tried to swatch it and nothing :P.  Maybe I just have a bad palette?  The other items I have gotten so far seem to be pretty good.  I'll go more into depth after this broken makeup problem is resolved!  Also coming up, makeup tips/tricks, and some more swatches.  I haven't had much inspiration for a makeup tutorial yet, Easter just seemed to obvious.  Anyways, stay tuned ♥!
