Pink Valentine's Day Look




Hey loves!! I made a quick pink smokey eye for you in time for Vday. I know there are 6565496565325181365 videos on youtube right now for tutorials lol so I decided to keep it sweet and simple.

I really love this "Heart Breaker" pigment by HN. It's so gorgeous in person. It looks flat and white on the pictures.. but in person the duo chrome is fabulous. It's a light pinkish/sparkle/iridescent color and very original. I don't think I have a color close to this. It really is beautiful in the sun.

Again, I'm using Sigma Makeup eyeshadow in "Indian Girl". I really do love this color it works with everything and just like MAC eyeshadow "Satin Taupe" it's perfect for smokey eyes.

I hope to do some more looks and do this live Thursday night for all of you! Please let me know your thoughts!


What I used:

Eyes:
Heavenly Naturals Duo tone pigment in "Heart breaker" (tear ducts & mirrored on lower lash line)
Ben Nye eyeshadow in "Azalea" (middle of lid to outer v blended up and mirrored on lower lash line)
MAC Stately Black (crease and outer v area over Azalea but not to much, just to get a little pink to pop through)
Sigma Makeup eyeshadow in "Indian Girl" (under brow highlight)
NYX eyeshadow in "Black" (to darken crease)
Heavenly Naturals pigment in "Vanilla Crush" (brow highlight)

Cheeks:
Heavenly Naturals blush in " Blushing 10"

Lips:
Sally Hansen lip lacquer in "Orchid"
Revlon lip gloss in "Gold Bling"



Turquoise Smokey Eye featuring "Athena" :D

On our way out to have some good dancing fun, my friend Athena asked if I had any blue green eyeshadow to match the earrings we designed! I sure did!! I love Ben Nye's eyeshadow and Turquoise is my total favorite, so I knew I had to use it on her. She also wanted it to be bit of a smokey eye, so I threw in my favorite versatile eyeshadow in "Indian Girl."

I did this super fast and I think she looks soo beautiful with these colors. My friend was poppin'! I also loved the cute flower she was sportin' as well. Please let me know what you guys think! Thanks guys.

What I used:
TFSI
Ben Nye eyeshadow in "Turquoise" (Lid blended into crease)
Sigma Makeup eyeshadow in "Indian Girl" (crease blended into brow highlight)
NYX eyeshadow in "Alaska" (outer corner to darken a little)
NARS eyeshadow in "Kilimanjaro" (brow highlight & tear ducts) or anything with a vanilla with gold base.
Black liquid liner on lid
Urban Decay liner in "zero" (waterline)

Cheeks: Heavenly Naturals blush in "Blushin 13"

Lips: use any gloss you like!



NATURAL FANTASY (using only one shadow/pigment)


I wanted to create a super fast look keeping it natural with a pop of color. I am wearing no eyeshadow on my eye lid only on my lower lashline. I have my lid prepped with concealer and a lil bit of Too Faced Shadow Insurance, just to keep a soft base and even color on the lid.

There are a lot of people who look for super fast looks and literally I did this in 5 minutes. Don't feel afraid to use a bright color on your lower lashline. I think it looks beautiful and can really pull your look together. Play up your regular days with some color! I hope you enjoy.


What I used:

Eyes:
TFSI
Heavenly Naturals pigment in "Fantasy" (lower lash line over urban decay liner)
Urban Decay liner in "Covet" (waterline and lower lash line for pigment base)

Cheeks:
Heavenly Naturals blush in "Blushin' 13"

Lips:
My new favorite!!! It's by Milani it's also a duo lipstick/lipgloss combo.
Milani #801 " Two Perfect" Pretty Pair



BLACK PANIC SMOKEY EYE


The other night I went to my friend Vero's 4 Year Anniversary party at a club here in the Bay Area. It was so much fun and I'm so glad to see my friends who I didn't see in a long time. I've been so busy with work, and my friends as well it's hard to get all together.

Anyway, I hope you like this look. I wanted to do something to of course match my shirt ;D but also something smokey and hot! Sorry about the pictures, I was on my way out with friends and didn't take a huge amount. Let me know what you think!


What I used:
Eyes:
MAC Greasepaint stick (lower lashline & lid blended up into crease)
Sigma Makeup eyeshadow in "Indian Girl" (crease blended up into brow highlight and lower lashline)
Heavenly Naturals pigment in "Panic" (lid only)
MAC eyeshadow in "Cloud Burst" (crease)
MAC eyeshadow in "Vanilla" (brow highlight)

Cheeks:
Heavenly Naturals blush in "Blushin' 10"

Lips:
