Warming Up a Grey Day (FOTD)Happy Monday, all! I had a weekend full of work, sleep, my dad's birthday, a Mardi Gras party and more! The cake for my dad's birthday had rum in it, and well, the leftovers he sent home with me have scented my entire fridge... eep! Anyhow, to get back on track, I thought I'd show you all I still have a face:  The blue shirt with this makeup makes me giggle, but oh well. I did my makeup and snapped these photos before I got dressed for work. The focus of this is definitely the lip - featuring Viva Glam Cyndi! Pigment Party Mishmash! Round 8Lustreglass Lip SwatchesI had a request to do lip swatches of my lustreglasses, so here they are! Sadly, I only have four of them.  Love Knot My one and only limited edition lustreglass, it was also my first of this formula. I'm absolutely infatuated with this shade, by the way, because of the kick-ass duochrome. Mega Lame (Some Matte Lipsticks)My computer no longer acknowledges my camera. It tells me the USB device has malfunctioned, and to replace it. Thanks, computer! As such, you don't get much today, because it's all on my camera (grrrr). We have lip swatches of two matte lipsticks today, one a current pro shade and one an old glitter matte (yes, glitter matte).  Lovedust. Glittery mattes will never make sense to me, but this is a nifty shade regardless.  Redpepper. A bricky red, yo. MAC Pigment Swatches - Part 1You didn't think I was done showing you pigments, did you? Here's part one of the swatchfest. I haven't swatched everything at my disposal yet, because I got bored. Top row is dry, bottom row is applied wet. Some I swatched today I need to redo, because the picture suck. Some of these, unfortunately, miss the nuances of the shade, but this should help show what they look like anyway.  Primary Yellow, Golden Lemon, Gold (metal), Gold Dusk MAC Paints SwatchesHere within you will find swatches of every single MAC paint I know to exist. If you know of one that I do not, PLEASE let me know!  Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Eye PencilsThese eyeliners are precious to me. They are my go to eyeliners for fun colorful looks or more sophisticated looks. These liners do it all and then some. They are creamy, great for blending (after applying you have about 30 seconds), then they dry to a long-lasting finish that won't budge. They come in so many colors that I still don't own them all but i'm working on it.  Love that Look Swatches & DupesLove that Look released a week early, so rain or shine I went to my Mac counter. I swatched everything and was very careful driving home and not rubbing my arms against stuff...I'm pretty sure people think i'm more crazy now. Anyway these are the best swatches I can do, it hasn't stopped raining all week. So no sun equals less impressive swatches. I find these are pretty accurate. I also dd some dupes so you guys can try to save money.  My Wee Urban Decay Collection Look! My lovely little collection of Urban Decay. I do rather enjoy it, so I thought I'd show you all. The only thing missing from this is my cream shadow in Moonshine, but you can read more about that here (see it, too!). More photos and swatches? |
