I haven't been wearing much makeup lately so I decided to play around with my Loreal Infallible eyeshadows and this is the dramatic look I came up with.  Its definetly not something I'd wear out, just fun to play around with makeup :)

(Ignore the breakout and the brush hair on my nose..eek!)

This looks much darker in real life

Products Used:

Loreal Infallible eyeshdows

Eternal Sunshine

Perpetual Purple

Midnight Blue

Maybelline Color Tattoo in Tenacious Teal 

as an eyeshadow base

NYX HD foundation

NYC bronzer in sunny

Maybelline Illegal Length mascara

Avon lipliner in Nude

Revlon Colorburst lipstick in Soft Nude

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable balm stain

Balm stain in Cherish and Charm

These are new from Revlon and I got mine from Walgreens when they were 30% off. 1st of all let me say I love the packaging on these.  They twist up from the bottom so there is no need to sharpen them.


Cherish is a pretty light to medium pink that would look good on any skin tone


Charm is a light nude color.  This is very light almost clear on my lips. If you use a concealer to blank out your lips a bit, it should show up better


They do last quite a long time even through eating and drinking, but the shine does disappear.


These come in 12 different colors, retail for $6.79, and can be found at your local drugstore


Have you tried these yet? What do you think about them?

Revlon Haul

Revlon Lustrious Smoky Crayon in Steel Smoke

Revlon Lustrious Smoky Crayon in Bronze Smoke

Swatch of both Smokey Crayons

Revlon Diamond Lust shadow in Starry Pink
These have a TON of fall out so make sure to use them wet

Revlon 16 hour eyeshadow quad in Inspired
These shadows are nicely pigmented with minimal fall out.
The colors apply true to how they look in the pans

Revlon CustomEyes Mascara
You can chose between 
#1 length and Drama  
#2 Length and Definition.
So far I like this mascara.  It can be a little goopy so you'll need to scrape off the brush before you apply it

Revlon Colorstay Nail Polish in Buttercup


So far I do not care for this nail polish but I will give it another try


Sorry about the weird layout.  For some reason I couldn't get it to cooperate with me

NOTW- Feelin' Hot Hot Hot

I decided to give fake nails a go!  I never really use them, but my nails have been in horrible shape lately( thanks to my job), so I decided to try them out.  I really like the way they look and they were easy to apply!

 

I chose the Nailene brand in the active square shape.  You can find them at your local Walmart for less than $6.

I painted them in a very summery color- OPI Feelin' Hot Hot Hot

How do you feel about fake nails?
