Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween! It was a long but fun night. I did my neice and 7 of her friends makeup for Halloween last night. 3 hours later and they looked like Marionette Dolls. They were Gorgeous and it was so fun. The hubby kept Barrett entertained on the driveway while all the trick or treaters came by and then we got to watch some cartoons and head to bed. Im not sure how it happened butI managed to not eat a single piece of candy. It was a Halloween miracle :)

Homemade matching Halloween ties. They looked so Handsome at church.

Barrett wanted to be Daddy for Halloween. He was the cutest little Football player Ive ever seen :)

We had a Halloween Party and Me and the Hubby went as ourselves...just sixty years from now :)

BARBIE Halloween Makeup Look

Barbie..How I envy you. Perfect body, Perfect hair, You have every material possesion you could ever want, a Pink corvette and the Hunkiest boyfriend Ken.  Do you remember what little girls would do with the Ken doll when they were playing Barbies? I remember. You'd grab Ken and be like "ken is going to work now" and you'd chuck him under the bed. He would not appear again until Barbie decided she needed to go on a date or have a baby. Ahh..
.. My husband would say that the whole Barbie experience explains a lot about Women :) haha





Thanks for watching....
On a side note, I couldn't get these lashes to look right. I had never used this brand before and they were really bothering me because one looked so different from the other. I realized once i took them off that they were both for the left eye. There is supposed to be one for left , one for right in each package but somehow they made a mistake so there you go! :)

When in doubt go OMBRE!

So I took the Plunge! Yesterday I went to one of my good friends Christina Delgado and she dyed my hair Ombre. If you havent heard of ombre the best way of explaining it is that it a gradient of color going from a darker color up top to getting lighter and lighter towards the bottom until you reach the ends where it is lightest of all. I LOVE IT!! Now I know how it feels to be a brunette and a blonde at the same time :) I had the bayalage style done a few months ago which is similar..think lauren conrad and it was awesome but I really wanted to go darker for fall. The Hubby likes it, my baby still recognizes me, and I feel ready for Fall. Good times..Good times..

Christina has been doing my hair for the past 5 years or so. She works in the Gilbert area so if you are interested in giving her a call Ill get you the info. She is Amazing at Color and everything else :)

Green with Envy

I found out about London Butter Nail Polish the past year and have been in LOVE ever since. It is the smoothest long lasting nail polish I have ever tried. I found this color last month and have been so excited for Fall so I could wear it. It's called British Racing Green. (They would know since the creators are British). I love wearing dark short nails in the fall and wintertime. This is a great alternative to wearing a black nail polish if you don't like going so dark.

Jennifer Aniston Makeup Look

Jennifer Aniston..Sigh.
The hair, the face, the body, the age (she is in her 40's and can make 20 yr olds jealous). What's not to Love? My first real haircut as a teenager was totally the Jennifer Aniston "Friends" Haircut. I was just reading in a magazine that her haircut from that show is still to this day the most requested haircut at a salon. Well I decided to do a makeup look from this gorgeous picture of her. Her look is always a great tan, shimmery eyes, and a flushed cheeks. The perfect Girl next door.


First start out with a moisturized face. Any facial moisturizer will do. I Love Philosophies line. But I am trying out Benefits Triple Performing facial emulsion with SPF today. 

Next apply a primer. I got this great sample and figured today was the perfect time to use it. (samples are great when deciding if you want to buy a product or not). Jennifer has that great bronzy skin and Stilas One Step Primecolor in Bronze babe is perfect. It gave my skin a healthy tan glow and prepped it for foundation.

Now apply a Foundation. Jennifer has gorgeous skin and it always looks like she has such a dewy flawless face. I Love M.A.C's Studio Moisture tint with spf because it covers up imperfections but it is such a lightweight foundation. It is basically lotion and foundation mixed :)

Next I apply an eyelid primer. I think it's important to always wear primer. It makes your eye makeup last, not smudge, and it really brings out the color of the eyeshadow. Urban Decay's eye primer potion is a cult favorite.

Now I apply my shadow. I am wearing Bermuda Sand by ULTA on my eyelid, Blanc Type by M.A.C on my brow bone, and Nude by Smashbox and Bamboo by M.A.C in my crease.

Next apply a Black eyeliner on top and bottom of your eyelids and smudge so there is not a defined line. Im using Urban Decays eyeliner in Zero

Now curl your eyelashes and apply mascara on top and bottom. Im wearing Voluminous Carbon Black by Loreal. 

Jennifer has full natural brows so I filled my in with Benefits Browzings brow shaping kit.

Now for her tan sunkissed complexion I use a Bronzer from M.A.C  in Refined Gold. Apply to temples, around jawline, top of cheek bone and forehead.

For those gorgeous summer flushed cheeks I love Nars Blush in orgasm. It is a pretty salmon color with loads of bronze shimmer. GORGEOUS! It looks great on everyone.

Next apply some highlights to your face. I use M.A.C's cream colour base in Luna. It is a frosty cream color that just highlights wherever you put it. I apply it down the center of the nose and high cheek bones.


The look would not be complete without those gorgeous full Pink lips. Im using Nars lipgloss in Super Orgasm. It is a beautiful Salmon pink color with loads of shimmer. I already have pink lips so im not using a lipstick but if you want a more pronounced lip just use a lipstick then a gloss.
                                     

                                        And that about does it folks :) try something new today!
