NOTD: Jan 01 2009

These are two NOTDs from Jan 01 and Jan 07. They are both Sally Hansen. The first is Forever Mango. It was very difficult to get a good photo of this! The first photo is w/o flash. The second is with. The first looks orange the second looks pink! Its somewhere in between.




This second color is Poppy. This is two coats but should be three, as it's still a bit on the sheer side. Anyway, I can't help but love these kinds of colors. I think they go very nicely with my skin tone.

FOTD: Jan 07 2009

Notice the title? I thought I would upload some old FOTDs since I cannot grace you with new ones. If I used face products, I'm not sure what I used since they are not photographed, but the face seems to look fairly natural in these photos. I used Avon Glimmer Stick in some navy blue color... I think Midnight, perhaps. Then I used ULTA shadows in Sin, a shimmery dark navy, and Pink, shimmery pink. Rimmel Extra Super lash. I used the pink only as a highlight color.

Oh, I love this lipstick. It is by Avon and it is too neat. It is Golden Rose.



Also: Camwhoring...

Me looking at you all sly:

Some how this photo came out of it, and it looks rather good. I don't know. Maybe this is another person. Because, frankly, I didn't think I could look like this. It's all about the angle.
I love eyelashes. No seriously, I love eyelashes. All eyelashes. They are so sweet and lovely.

UpDate

I am beginning to upload photos that I couldn't upload while I was at home. I'm at my boyfriend's house right now so I'll be doing them when I get the chance. I'll be doing more when I get back to school. So, check it out!!! :-) All the posts since Dec 18 are back posted. :-) I will delete this post once I get them all up.

FOTD: Jan 01 2009

Wow, my face was kinda glow-y on this day! It's the WNW face illuminator. It sure does it's job! That open compact is a Victoria's Secret Eyeshadow Mosaic. The lipstick is a d/ced Maybelline

Oooh, I'm too cute! Hehehehe

FOTD: Saturday Dec 27

Today is the Saturday after Christmas. Went shopping with my mom today to get in on some of the after Christmas Deals. I also used some of my Christmas prezzies (on which I'll do a collective haul when I get back to school). The powder and mascara are Avon. It's the mistake proof mascara. I like the mascara very much, but not so much on the eraser part. The shadow is a palette from Ulta. I'll talk about that later, too, in another post. With swatches and such. The gloss is Maybelline and the concealer is ELF, as usual.

I used the second pair of shadows in the palette and the beige from the first pair as a highlighter. It's all rather sheer, but good texture

Sorry about the mascara mess!

Oooh, I love this gloss. Isn't it lovely!!

LOVE this picture.

FOTD: Wednesday Dec 24

My Christmas Eve FOTD. I only wore clear mascara today, like yesterday. I wanted to give my lashes a break. Also, to let you all know, I've been trying out Ardell Lash and Brow growth Accelerator lately. I'll do a post on it when I get back to school.

Anyway, products used:
The eyes: I put the color on very lightly, I didn't want a very dark eye today.

See the naked lashes

Note on the lips: the color in the stick looks red, but it's really a dark pink, I think. I put it on over concealer then blotted and it came out as a lighter pink. Very natural looking for my lips actually; just a dash pinker.

FOTD: Tuesday Dec 23

Today I do not have any close up photos of my eyes or lips or anything. The only full face shots I have were taken that night. Because today... the baby goats were born!!!! So the photos I have of my self are of me holding one of the kids. But I decided to do a FOTD anyway

Normal face stuff. Like I said in my last post, I'm trying to go with minimal coverage and see how it works out. It's still working here. (Not for long!!)
ELF Concealer (tone 2) ELF Blush (Glow) WNW Illuminating Powder (Catwalk Pink) Rimmel Stay Matte Powder (Translucent Medium I think)


Eye products: I just got this HiP Duo from my sis. Can I say that I love the HiP shadows? I do I do. Anyway, this how the shadow was done today: Pink all over lids, define crease with the blue, highlight brow bone and inner corner with the Physician's Formula (cameo). I only used clear mascara today. I also used the brow gel side on my eyebrows. The look so much better when they're groomed.


Now for lips: why is concealer in this photo? Well, I've been experimenting with putting concealer on my lips before I put on lipstick to see how it changes the color. Largely, I like it. That's what I did here. Concealer, then lipstick, then gloss. That's a NYX lipstick in Georgia and ELF gloss in Angel.


Now, these are the only pix I have of myself from today. See the sweet goat! Awww. His name is Boba Fett. Hehehe. We had to feed him for the first day but after that, him mom fed him and he was OK. Anyway, my face is a bit shiny and I'm surprised I have any lip color left on at all, but that's probably thanks to the concealer holding it on. All the gloss is gone. The eyes still look good though.
