So I purchased all the ingredients for my homemade brush cleaner from the Dollar Store and scotch tape duos are $1.00 too.
Well, this is what happens when you have a little extra $$ in your pocket.
So I just used the same gold as yesterday and another NYX purple e/s... then blended in some MAC Carbon.... It came out pretty cool LOL (also I dont have on my face or did I use any cream base with this look)
A wonderful girl from MUA RAOK'd me some NYX e/s because she cant make them 'work'. I keep telling her to reach outside her comfort zone but its not working.
Anyways here are the two colors and now I cannot remember their names. :D
And this is my FOTD for today!! Now I am forcing myself to figure out how to do a 'winged liner'. I am assuming I will NEVER learn if I never try right. So last 3 days I have flicked my liner and tried to make sure it look right and even. Today was a failure on the even part. :(

OK I know I havent posted in forever and I havent even done that many tutorials.... But life is totally different in the new house.
We had both TVs in the living room from when we first moved into the house and everyone was happy about it BUT me. Everyone could play two different video games or watch TV on one and video on the other. However, it wasnt working for me and the 2nd TV was on my brand new desk that I got for xmas.
SO while my DH was out - I took it upon myself to move the TV into our bedroom where it belonged. Here comes the problem. MY vanity is now in the bedroom and now my DH never leaves the room but to smoke or eat. And neither happens often or long enough for me to put on my MU let alone do a talking tutorial.
So now fast forward a month - and finally MAYBE my DH will have a job but it will be in SC (3.5hrs away). He will stay there during the work week and come home on the weekends to spend them with us. It will be lonely without him BUT I can get the house back into some sort of order.
We will find out next wk if its a GO or not....
Anyways, a fellow YT buddy is holding a contest and she asked me to participate. Here is her video:
I really like her concept and have already picked out my inspiration picture.
and I practiced a look already to see how it would come out. BUT, man, I really wish I had a GOOD YELLOW EYESHADOW!!!
Ignore the thick liner side cause I was trying to figure that out too today. LOL
Well, I was also tagged today from someone else. I already recorded this today too - but have to edit it before posting on YT.
I love love love this look. I have to admit it and was totally impressed with the ULTA palette. It was such a great deal. I must say that if the palette is ever calling your name it would totally be worth it to get it.
Anyways here is the face chart that I duped.
breakdown

EYES UDPP NYX Milk jumbo pencil ULTA Platinum e/s (center of lid) ULTA Gunmetal e/s (inner lids) ULTA Night Sky e/s (outer V and crease) random nude shimmer for brow and blending out jane Mineral liner in blk Rimmel mascara
LIPS L'Oreal Juicy Color in bubble gum
I can't find all the pics... I will look for them and hopefully post them later.
I have had ppl ask me this question a few times so I finally got around to making a tut about it. I was really inspired by the traditional Asian bridal makeup. So here is the videos.
Breakdown
FACE Revlon ColorStay Fndt NARS Silvana blush NYC Browser in Brunette
EYES UDPP MAC Bare Study pp (on one eye only) MAC Blonde's Gold (foiled on one - reg on the other) MAC Heritage Rouge L'Oreal HiP Cream liner in Blk XXL Mascara in blk
LIPS Clinique Creamy Nude l/s over ULTA Nude l/l
Here the eye was foiled and you can see it already started to crease.
This was just applied over a cream base and didnt look at metallic but lasted much better.
OK I cannot believe I actually tried to do an EMO/scene look. But after much research, I think they are just wearing a black smoky eye? I mean whats the difference really. Take away the clothes and the hair - and you just have a traditional smoky eye. WELL, whatever!
Another youtube'r asked me to do the MAC Colour Spill Halloween Face Chart. Well, lemme tell you its a freak ton of blending!! I watched another tut with the same Face Chart and she blended with her fingers. That might have been easier IDK...
