Wicked - An Elphaba Inspired Look

Since getting the Urban Decay Oz The Great and Powerful palettes I have been wanting to do looks to represent Elphaba and Glenda from the Broadway Musical "Wicked"...well I've finally achieved a look inspired by Elphaba. Elphaba (being my favorite character) has sharp cheekbones and deep hollow eyes to make her more "wicked". In this look I tried to recreate her green face in my eyes with the Jealous color from the palette and smoke out the color to make a hollow deep set eye with browns and dark green. I also tried to achieve the sharp cheekbones by contouring my cheeks heavily and using a bright dark red blush. To go along with the Wicked show poster I went with a red lip. I hope you enjoy watching how I go this look as much as I enjoy the musical and the makeup used to create it.

The Bachelorette Blog will be To Be Continued until next week. I need to have a mind break from what I have had to witness in that show. This season is straight up horrible.

Getting Ready to Move

So this week seems in my brain to be hectic. My mom and I have so much to do before movers come and before we can actually move. We aren't leaving until the 18th or 19th but I'm working all next week and won't have time to get things in order. Because we have so much to do we have decided to take our time and ultimately procrastinate. Ugghhh..so much on my mind of what I need to do. You would think with all the moving that myself and my family has done over the years it should be easy, but it's not. Every time you move you seem to accumulate more and more junk that can't seem to be parted with. Fortunately I am already planning on getting rid of a lot. Things that I don't use, don't wear, etc. I wish I just knew where to start. HAHA. I'm going to try to take some time out every day to post you guys on what is going on in the moving process, but as we all know, I like to procrastinate, dream big and then sleep instead of doing what I am supposed to do. Well, off to at least start on one room... Take care!!! XOXO MEE P.S. I won't be doing a January Favorites, simply because I didn't really have any true favorites. I AM going to TRY to get a review on the new Urban Decay Oz palettes, but with all the moving that may have to wait. I did use the Theodora palette yesterday and I am in LOVE!!!

Get Ready With Me!

March Favorites

Two days into April and I am now getting around to doing my March favorites.  Eventually I will have my own YouTube channel and you will get to see me and my favorite products in "person", but for now this is it.  This past month I haven't really used many things, but I do have some that I absolutely adore!  For my hair I have really come to like the WEN hair care system in Sweet Almond and Mint.  It's a little strange being that it doesn't lather and feels just like conditioner, but my hair feels great and smells even better.  I only use it once a week, but I can tell a difference.  Hair feels so healthy.  Another shower product is the Schick Hydro razor.  I absolutely am in love with this razor.  Never have I had such smooth legs (well maybe when I was a baby), but this razor having 5 blades and works so well.  Highly recommend.  Mentioned in my latest haul was the Mabelline Baby Lips, I love they way they make my lips feel and the Quenched (only one I have used on a regular basis) is so nice and moisturizing.  The Nivea Creame is also so nice.  I used it at work this past Saturday and if anyone knows how many time a Veterinary Nurse washes their hands you can imagine how dry they must get.  I would put it on after washing my hand and they never felt softer.  Has a very pleasant scent as well, very clean.  As far as makeup, I love the Stila Ladies Who Lunch eye shadows.  They blend so easily and look great with any look.  I seem to have used them a lot this month.  Lastly I think I saw these in one of DulceCandy87's  videos, but I have a new found love for eye drops.  Rohto has drops that help get the red out, but also lubricate and help with stressed/strained eyes.  I got this particular type because my eyes seem to always be red from my allergies, but also the get so strained from being on the computer doing homework and reading my textbooks.  They do burn upon application, but it goes away quickly and after that is over my eyes feel so refreshed! 

Hope you guys and gals enjoyed my March Favorites.  In case I don't post another blog before my surgery, hope you guys and gals have a wonderful Easter and I'll try to keep you updated on how I'm doing post-op and maybe get some looks up.

Take Care!
XOXO

Ulta and Bath&Body Works Haul

A week after purchasing/receiving I'm finally getting around to making a haul for these awesome products!  For the first time I did not purchase makeup from Ulta.  Weird I know, but it had to be done.  SO...let's start this haul!

From Ulta, I got a new Caboodle in pink with black lace over.  It's a little bigger than the clear one I purchased a few weeks ago, but open and works just like the clear one.  Two body butter jars from The Body Shop in Coconut and Strawberry.  The Coconut takes me to the spring break of 2004 when my family got a house in Marathon, FL and my brother Bryan lifted me up into a palm tree to try and retrieve a coconut (we are crazy kids) and the Strawberry is delicious.  I first heard about the Strawberry one from one of my fav YouTube Guru's MakeupByTiffanyD about a year ago so I finally decided to get it.  Next two Maybelline Baby Lips chapsticks in Quenched (a little lemon-y flavor) and in Cherry Me (yummy cherry :) )  Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm in Natural Mint and Shea Butter (so moisturizing and makes lips feel fresh).  Nivea Creme in travel tin (I got three of these.  I think they were only $0.99 or $1.99) they are so tiny and compact that they will fit perfectly in a clutch or pocket for on the go. Lastly Nicole by O.P.I. Kardashian  Collection in Khloe had a Little Lam-Lam, will definitely be doing my nails in this after my surgery.  I also got nail polish remover, Basically U brand 100% acetone, I have found this to be the best remover. 

 Bath&Body Works - I'm not a regular Bath&Body Works purchaser, but since I bought candles this past fall and winter I have fallen back in love with shopping there. (I just hope they don't discontinue my favorite scents like they have in the past).  First I got five travel size Anti-Bacterial hand sanitizers in Warm Vanilla Sugar, Japanese Cherry Blossom, Sweet Pea, Caribbean Escape and Island Nectar.  Also to make more travel friendly splurged on two of the holders for them (they both have glitter which makes me oh so happy).  For Candles I got the brushed nickle holder that has a base to it so it doesn't sit flat on my dresser, Coco Lobo, Coconut Water, and Tiki Beach candles.  I'm a very beachy/coconut scent person.  *Not pictured is an essential home oil in Warm Vanilla Sugar, travel lotions in Warm Vanilla Sugar and Sweet Pea, and  body spray in Sweet Pea.

Welp, that's all for this haul.  If you have any questions about how I like these products or anything feel free to comment and I'll try to answer quickly.  I'm not going to reviews on these because honestly I don't have that much time coming up with my surgery that is happening on Friday, but like I said if you have questions ask!  

Hope you enjoyed!  Take Care!

XOXO

Slacking a little

So I've been slacking a little on getting things posted and done for my blog.  SORRY!  This week and the next few months coming up are going to be hard for me to get things posted on here because I am having back surgery.  But I will try my best to get some stuff up here at least once a week.  I will have a March favorites posted before my surgery on Friday.  I'm going to post a link to a video that one of the Guru's I follow on YouTube posted the other day that I think has some cool things mentioned.  Hope everyone had a fool-less April fools day and have a great week!

Take care!

Tarte realEyes Review

I was so excited to get the Tarte realeyes kit and couldn't wait to try it.  I love the colors and how they bring out the blue in my eyes.  The cream eye shadow was a little difficult to get on the brush that came in the kit, but went on smoothly.  The eye liner was amazing.  I also have it in green.  It goes on smooth and virtually flawlessly.  I didn't use the mascara that came in the kit, but I have used it before and absolutely love it.  The main reason I bought the kit was for the mascara.  Below are pictures of the look I did.  It is a basic look that was suggested on the back of the box.

Starting from what I used first to last to get this look:
Face:
Stila's Stay All Day 10-in-1 HD Beauty Balm
Loreal Magic Smooth Souffle foundation in 518 Natural Buff
Cover Girl loose professional loose powder in 110 translucent light
Bronzer - Physicians Formula Healthy Glow Bronzer
Blush - Tarte natural cheek stain in flush
Highlight (under eyes) - Urban Decay cream highlight in Moonshine
Contour - Tarte mineral bronzer in park ave princess
Eyes:
Eyebrows - Too Faced Brow Envy mixing blonde and brunette with Smashbox Brow tech wax
Eyelid primer - Urban Decay Eye shadow primer potion in Sin
Shadow - Tarte Amazonian clay waterproof cream eye shadow in rich brown
Liner - Tarte Amazonian clay waterproof emphasEYES in green
Mascara - Rimmel Glam'Eyes in 003 extreme black
Waterline liner - Loreal Wear Infinite long lasting powder eye liner in ebony
Lips -
Maybelline Color Sensational in 155 Party Pink

Ulta Haul 3/2012

Okay...so I haven't really decided what direction my blog is going to go in yet, but...fashion, makeup, beauty, etc might be where it ends up going.

Moving on...I am an avid Ulta shopper.  My local store should have my picture on the wall.  Well maybe not because I started to do all my shopping online so I don't overspend and I can really think about the purchases in the comfort of my own home before I buy them.  And then the suspense of getting the "big" box in the mail makes it so much more fun.  Okay - so to the products.

Both Hot Tools - a 2" Ceramic TI Flat Iron (top) and a 2" 24K Gold Curling Iron.  Haven't used either yet, but a review will occur sometime in the near future.

A clear train case with lipstick emblems on it.  Was supposed to be for jewelry organization, but turned out to work great for the individual eyeshadow pots, primers, blush, and samples.  LOVE IT already!!!

Stila's Ladie's Who Lunch Kit: 3 shadow pots, black mascara, sparkle waterproof liquid eyeliner and #7 precision crease brush.  I've used the eyeliner before and I love it!!!  I wear it alone or when I do a brown based smokey eye.  Everything else I will try out and post pictures and a review!

From L to R: Puppy, Kitten, Twig (from the Stila's Ladie's Who Lunch Kit)

Tarte realEYES the natural smokey eye kit w/free lip gloss in Blissful. Lash Primer, Light Camera Action black mascara, double ended liner brush, Amazonian clay waterproof cream eyeshadow in rich brown and Amazonian clay waterproof liner in green.  I bought this kit because of the mascara.  I ABSOLUTELY ADORE IT!!!  I might give the rest to my mom if she promises to use them.

 Nicole by OPI in Kim-pletely in love and Hard-Kourt Fashionista.  I have Kourt is red-i for a pedi and it's such a beautiful red, I had to get these two!

I Finally Have it!!! Colors ( L to R): Foxy, Half Baked, Bootycall, Chopper, Tease, Snakebite, Suspect, Pistol, Verve, YDK, Busted, and Blackout. Came with free Lip Junkie in Naked.  I love the original Naked palate, use it almost every time I put on makeup.  When this one came out I was a little unsure just because just because, but when it came in stock...I HAD TO BUY!!!  SO excited to use it!!!


That's it for this Ulta haul.  I could go on and on about all the awesome makeup items I have that I love.  Maybe I'll do a weekly or monthly list of five.  If you have any looks or questions about any products let me know.  If it's out there I probably have tried it or know someone who has!!!


Take Care!!!

XOXO
