Magically Cool??

I'm going to keep the typing to a minimun bc my wrist has been killing me lately -- it feels like a sprain and hurts everytime I try to move it. Bear with me...
This look is from a few weeks ago. I was taking a break from my study schedule to have brunch with a friend. Since my life revolves around work and school and I have no life lately, I was super excited to get all cute.

I picked up the MAC Magically Cool Liquid Powder from my local COO and couldn't wait to try it. This was limited edition from the Disney Collection and I was bummed that I missed out on it. I applied it as a bronzer and ummm...can you see it? I dont think I can.

When swatched on my wrist, it is a beautiful bronze shade, but when I applied it to my cheeks it left a little to be desired. Maybe it'll work as a highlighter. Let me know if you want me to swatch it.

How do you guys use this product?

FOTD with Urban Decay Naked Palette

On Friday I had a lunch date planned with some friends so I decided to do a lil extra with the eyes. I hope you like it!

On another note, I think my skin is starting to come back to its senses. I've gone back to using my favorite face wash and drinking lots of water. *fingers crossed*

Naked Smokey Look

Here is my first look using the UD Naked Palette. It can be vamped up with a dark lip or toned down with a more nude lippie. On my face I'm wearing Eve Pearl Salmon concealer, Eve Pearl Foundation, set with Graftobian powder (I love this combo). On the lips are MAC Currant lipliner with MAC Wrong Spell lipglass. The nude lip is a Mary Kay gloss(can't remember the name).

I did not overdo it on the undereye concealer...I get these random yellow patches on my skin, mainly under my eyes. Weird, I know.

Look what I FINALLY got my hands on...

I have been lusting over this palette for a while and Sephora FINALLY had it in stock last week. I placed my order and the palette arrived over the weekend. I. WAS. FREAKING. THRILLED. Looks to come! :-)

I have no idea why the pic is rotated...I don't have time to deal with Blogger tonight.

Tanned & Bronzed

Hi Beauties!!!
I'm back from the beach with a little tan and alot of NYC bronzer! My weekend at the beach was super relaxing...hopefully I will have time to get back to the beach in the next 2 weeks before I start my new job!

I'm wearing MAC tinted moisturizer, NYC bronzer, MAC Petticoat MSF with MAC Viva Glam Gaga lipstick. On the eyes I'm rocking Urban Decay's Book of Shadows (Scratch, Underground, and Zero).

Abandoned Urban Decay palette

I did this look a few weeks ago...I cant remember everything I used on my face but for my eyes I broke out an old Urban Decay palette that I haven't used in a forever. I used Scratch, Fishnet, and Ransom. I used a NYC white eyeliner on my waterline and Maybelline Great Lash mascara.

I tried to crop out the head scarf!

FOTD

I attended a party a few weeks ago with a friend and this is the face I wore :)

As you can see in the first pic, my skin is very dry and in need of some TLC. The last pic was taken at the end of the night, hence the tired *ahem drunk ahem* eyes.

I pulled out the Urban Decay Book of Shadows for this look.


















Face:

L'Oreal True Match Superblendable makeup in C6 - this was too light when I purchased in the summer, but matches well now.
NYX blush in Pinky

Eyes:
UDPP
UD Scratch in inner 1/3
UD Shag on middle 1/3
UD Zero on outer v and blended into crease blended with a soft brown color

For the life of me, I cannot recall what I have on my lips.

Peace!
