✨ All That Glitters.. ✨

Solone Eyeliner - Silver Glitter
I really wanted to do glitter lids like the amazing chrissyp so infamously does! Of course my results aren't as spectacular lol but I really enjoyed the look!  She also has a gorgeous purple look I want to try. But anywhooo! I was able to accomplish this look by using this beautiful glitter liner from kkcenterhk. You can check out the liner here! I also used this liner on Halloween as just a simple line above my usual black liner. I will be posting my super late Halloween look soon also to show you. Anyway though! Here's my attempt at simple glittery lids.


Disco Lids
ICE Cosmetics (no longer available) • Solone Glitter Liner: I used the glitter liner as a base all over the lid & with a flat synthetic brush pat on the loose glitter. I worked one small area at a time & tried not to look up to avoid transference above my natural crease. I still got some rebel specs up there but it was nothing too horrible lol. I went thick on the liner & kept the lashes & the crease color pretty tame. I really liked wearing this out, you only really see the glitter when you blink & it looks awesome!


Bright Coral Lips
MAC Watch Me Simmer: I wore this bright coral-ish orange (it looks brighter in person) lipstick. It's an Amp Creme so it's really moisturizing & creamy. The color itself is super fun & totally out of my usual pink & nude zone.


Kaleidoscope Nude
LA Colors Intimate • WetNWild Fergie Kaleidoscope Eyes: This is one of my favorite manicures everrrr! & It's so incredibly simple but it looks so pretty!! I think stiletto nails give off a kind of elegance. I use this pearl nude color from LA Colors a lot!! I love it & I think the nails would've looked great, just with the nude color. But I don't necessarily like how sheer it is & how you can still see where the fake & real nail meets. So I slapped on this glitter polish. I don't like how it gives off very little glitter, but in this case.. it works for me!

Thanks so much for stopping by & reading!!
I hope you have a great week. ;) xOxO

Seven Deadly Sins : Gluttony

 [Gluttony] desire to consume more than that which one requires.
Eeeek. One of my personal favorite sins! The animal associated with Gluttony is the pig & its color is orange. I decided to make pink my main color. I can't even say how many times I tried doing this look before & just wasn't satisfied with it! This has been the hardest one to do. I think the reason for it, is because it totally takes me out of my comfort zone. I'm not use to using orange on my eyes.. just like with Envy I wasn't use to seeing green on me, so it kind of freaks me out. lol That's the reason I used the coral-pink color with it, to kind of soften the shock lol. I paired the Cheeto eyes with a pale pink color & some different eyeliner.

ICE Cosmetics Pinksta • Sedona Lace Matte Palette
I used the sparkly coral-pink shadow from ICE cosmetics on the inner parts of the eyes & the orange color on the outer two-thirds of the eyes. I also used Hustle from the first Naked palette to define the outer eyes. I used the right eyelid color from the I ♥ Matte palette to blend out the crease & both highlighters as my highlight. Then took the matte black on my lower lash-line. The lashes are random ebay lashes.

Revlon Prim Rose • Sinful Colors Pucker Up
I used this combination to create a pale pink lip. The lighting is a little crazy this time around. lol Excuse it, I was experimenting & then ran out of sunlight. Story of my life, I know. For someone who isn't a big fan of sticky lipglosses, I sure reach for them a lot lol. Maybe I do it 'cause I subconsciously don't want to use up my good glosses.. which would be pointless. Or maybe it's because they're out in the open, on my vanity & quick to get to. I don't know why I feel the need to analyze every little thing I do. lol Anyway! Hope you enjoyed the look!

Seven Deadly Sins: Vanity

[Vanity] An inflation of mind upon slight grounds; Empty pride inspired by one's personal abilities or decorations; Excessive desire for notice/approval; Ostentation; Conceit.
Yikes lol. Vanity (also known as Pride) is the sin that's considered to be the most "serious" of all the sins. The reason for this is because it's considered to be the OG; The source from which the other sins arise. The color associated with this sin is violet.. but I used blue. lol Mainly 'cause I already used purple in my Lust & Sloth one. So to show pride/vanity, I wanted really flashy, sparkly eyes & muted lips. I show the excessive self admiration in the eyes. & I wanted to incorporate something that looked like mirrors. On the lips, I used a light pink, I wanted to kind of show emptiness.

LA Colors Moon Rock & ICE Cosmetics Sparkly Glitter [pictured here]

I cut up two of my old earrings that I haven't used in probably like two years (no kidding) & glued them under my eyes with lash glue. Haa, it looks kind of weird but I wanted something that looked like mirrors near my eyes. I used the lighter blue on my lid and again above the crease. I used the darker blue in the crease & the dark grey to define a little bit. I used the two light colors in WnW's Vanity palette (how fitting!) for my highlight. Then took both blues again on the outer lower lash line.
 
 Wet N Wild Mega Last Matte Lipstick in Think Pink (901B)
I wanted to show the emptiness in the lips. So I went with pale pink lips. I just noticed recently, that of all the lipsticks I have.. I think I use this one the most. lol It's such a pretty color & I know I say that all the time but I really love it. Nude Attitude, Pink Pout, & this one are probably my most reached for lipsticks. You really can't go wrong with either of them.

Hope ya'll liked my take on Vanity!
I had been sitting on this look for almost two weeks lol My hair's already almost completely faded now.
I wish it was still this color. Le'sigh. Haa well thanks for checking it out! (:

Seven Deadly Sins : Lust

[Lust] an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body; Excessive thoughts or desires of a sexual nature.
I finally cleared my head enough to get back into blogging. This past week has been.. distracting, to say the least. But back on track! The next deadly sin is Lust. Raawrr! Some of you Twilight fans' favorite sin. Yes, I hear all that talk about the werewolf guy in the cargo shorts! >.> Lol playing. I didn't go crazy with this one & I still really like it. On the lid I used the darker color & a pink pigment over it. Representing the obscure thoughts (dark purple) of pleasures & desires (pink). The reddish pink lip takes the look a bit further & makes it bolder; Representing the excess of it.


ICE Cosmetics HD Pink • Too Faced Romantic Eye Palette
I used the dark matte purple (First Dance) from Too Faced's Romantic Eye Palette all over the lid. Then Ice Cosmetics' HD Pink on the crease, over the purple. I then used a mixture of First Dance & Un-veil on the lower lash line. I took just a little bit of Soulmates as my highlight. And that's it!! I wanted at least one of these to be really really ridiculously simple to do.

MAC Rare Exotic Mattene Lipstick
Lurve this color! It looks really shiny in this pic ^ but obviosly it's pretty matte. Just moisturizing.. not drying at all. I usually don't like reddish pinks. I tend to gravitate towards blue based pinks but this one's really pretty.

My hair looks red in this window. Aweshumm! I felt like Ariel lol Thanks for stopping by, phrands! How odd, I missed staying up til 5-6am blogging & listening to Chente. (I'm looking at you Lori!) lol xOxO
