Busy nah just lazy!
I've done my nails twice lol and no posts! Wow I am a terrible blogger. My 4th of July nails were cute to me especially since I did them in the car!
I also did a purple eyeshadow look which you can't really see any details of but it turned out super pretty. It was my favorite. Though it never saw the light of day sadly. About ten seconds after applying I took it off and went night night lol.
And then there were my Nautical nails which were super detailed and time consuming! Sigh... Just kidding they were easy for the most part. But the beads were a bitch lol.

Well Yelloooow!!!
Today I went with a very bright yellow as it seems to be a very popular color on the runways and in the magazines. It's a pretty color from Jordana cosmetics. A highlighter yellow with a pearly shimmer. The only thing is it has lousy pigment so you have to really pack in on the eye to even see it.
Because the color is so... whoa! I decided not to add much else. All I did was take a medium gray shadow and wet my brush and lined my eyes! Simple but effective! Pale pink lips with Rimmel vinyl lips lipgloss and Voila! I was done!!
The husbands prefers my naked face so he was kinda meh about it but everyone else liked it! Happy Sunday! Muah!! Oh let me get that gloss off your face....... lol!

I Have The Blues Baby!
Well this ended up being a very dramatic, dark, smokey look when I had originally intended it to be much more playful lol. Unfortunately my junk webcam not only omits all the great shades in this look but makes me look uber tired. Actually the look was very peacocky in person with royal blues, blue-greens, blue-gold and a blue that that had a deep purple to it.
I really liked it even though I am not used to so much drama on my eyes! Bubblegum pink lips and pale pink on the cheeks and I was done ready for a night out ( or a night in with Rachel Ray on the t.v.)! Avon lip tints on the lips. Everything else: Glamourdolleyes (blue ribbon), Mary Kay (velocity shadow box), Sally Girl (aqua), Markwins (blue gold), No name(white pearl), Ulta (liquid liner black)& lipgloss(clear pink), Kohl Kajal, Rimmellondon (curves mascara).Thursday, June 23, 2011
Green... not With Envy Though
This look was my green look where i once again made use of Glamourdolleyes http://glamourdolleyes.com/. I used Immature and Chocoholic. I also used Jordana shadow http://www.jordanacosmetics.com/ a great gold green that the sticker wore off of. Sahree!! Of course I put my cheapo set to use! Which the back says Markwins http://www.markwins.com/colorworkshop.html. I used a soft minty green from that pallette. And my liquid liner from Ulta http://www.ulta.com/. Clear Jordana lipgloss (coconut scent) over Clinique http://www.clinique.com lipstick Twinkle. A bit of a brick with a touch of gold blush from the Markwins set and.... Done!! By the way I am so sorry about the crappy quality of my photos but with my phone lost all I have is my webcam and it sorta blows! But new phone soon!

At Least His Head is Cooler....
So the other night my hubby and I looked at my 12 year old's fairly long hair and decided that he needed a hair cut. Especially since it was already 102 outside ( yikes! ). So we determined a fauxhawk was a look my handsome man could rock. That and it was low maintenance enough that his iffy pre-teen hygiene could stand up to it.
So we went to http://www.youtube.com/ and looked up tutorials on fauxhawks. Once we were confident in our abilities as amateur barbers we grabbed the clippers and proceeded to..... shave his hair all one length promising when it grew out a bit before school we'd take him to a qualified professional who would ensure his mack daddy status in 7th grade.
For now..... at least his head is cooler.
Pink for a Rainy Day!
I used probably 5 different shadows for this lol which is funny cuz it's not like I was going anywhere. But I put my http://glamourdolleyes.com/ shade Unicorn to good use. I also used a baby pink, a mauve, a silver pink and a black all from a cheapo set I got for Christmas which I love. Liquid eyeliner from http://www.ulta.com/ and mascara from http://www.rimmellondon.com which I like but don't love. On my lips I used a peachy nude with a touch of hot pink also from said cheapo set. I don't have my nails done cuz I was giving my naturals a break but break over so I'll be doing them soon.

My party nails!!!
We had a party to go to this weekend past, so I wanted a mani that was noticeable. I started with one design in mind, something a bit more delicate, but my soft pink was out and my son bought me this uber pink striper polish for mothers day so once I put it on my idea changed lol. It turned out pretty great but I am not a professional or left handed so it has its flaws. All in all I liked it alot and was complimented quite a bit!
Natural light
Yellow light
White light
The problem with rhinestones is they never look as good when u put on ur topcoat!
Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Oh and take my advice crawfish and Vodka do not mix soooo avoid if u can lol.

Hair today...
I decide to do half up half down with my hair because while my curls looked decent the top of my hair was just too poofy to leave it down.
I used an eyeliner brush to smudge my kohl kajal around my eyes which softened the look. I mixed my lipsticks until I
got the perfect petal pink. I layered my lipgloss on thick in the center of my mouth to achieve a fuller look. I'd tell u what I was wearing but it was crappy soooo... lol!

What I did with my curls today
I kept it simple today because my curls were actually looking good. I took a headband and pushed it up high. Lol. That's it! Simple yeah? But it looked nice enough for the hubby to notice. :)

Easter nails and Orange lips
Its Funny.....
I designed this blog because i wanted to be heard... but now I'm not sure what to say lol. i did my nails last night and after redoing them 3 times i finally ended up with a yellow base with pink and orange-red sponge. Then I put dried flowers and green rhinestones on the thumb and ring finger. It's pretty and Easter-y.
I also got a bit depressed watching Julie&Julia. Why? Because seriously how often does life get better that easily? How many people get an idea and Bam! lifes good? I love a great many things.. I am pretty good at a few things but I don't see my whole world smoothing out because of them. Oh well.
