MariahSnow Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Y'all would be so proud... I bought red (!!) lipstick. I actually tried it on in Ulta and it's more of a lip stain (which works for me), and then it was awkward because I was trying to rub off this epic red lipstick. But anyway, I also bought some primer for my eyes (sample size of Urban Decay eye potion). Currently trying a brown/gold shimmery look today and we'll see how it holds up. 1 Quote Amazon Warrior 29, F, 5'11 ft, 159lbs #1, #2, #3, #4, #5 Link to comment

I-Jo Posted December 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 thanks Jo.... means a lot coming from you I just wanted to feel pretty today... it mostly workedmostly is pretty good.I think it looks great! If you look at your first eye liner attemps- what's that 1 month in maybe? look at how much smoother it is!!! It's great! Vast difference and it definitely looks like A THING that you totally did with some posh. Love it. Christmas challengeI'm wanting to do some glitter. I don't know how- but I want it. I currently posses gold and black (two indvidual) colors of glitter... my intent is to use one or both. Or have a magical unicorn pony explosion and throw all the glitter in the air and run through it like a crop dusted fart holding my breath and hoping some of it sticks. Seems legit.

I-Jo Posted December 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 baby steps- it takes time and practice to avoid that I'm wearing plaster that supposed to look like make up look. Plus- make up has come a long way (I have a picture somewhere of my first childhood make up attempt- it's amusing needless to say) Um- picked up at Ulta the other day- while I was Christmas shopping for cologne.. All NYX products- spent 17$ I thinkMatte Lipstick in Alabama> almost a berry red- not to heavy on the berry though- just leans toward that warmer side. love it- long lasting- good pigmintation- formula application is unknown to me- my lips are trashed right now- seems smooth enough but - really it's anyone's guess. I like it though for right now. NYX Lip Smacking Fun Colors- their generic lipstick- black tube. LSS561- Violet Ray. > Berry colored- most smack in the middle of PURPLE- but I like it- makes me eyes pop- I have about 6-8 of these forumla- I clearly like them- I like the pigmentation. Two Jumbo Pencils- I'll post colors later- one is a cranburry color- kind of a purply fuscia color- really like it.Bronze color. used as a base yesterday and today- I loved what happened yesterday- today is good too. I did two totally different looks- and still really liked it. I picked up their pressed blush in PINCHED.... supposed to be a dupe for NARS Orgasm blush.I actually really like it- I've been struggling to find a daily wearable shade- half are two light- the other half are to much stage make up. pinched- like it- good application- good color. very happy. maybe pictures later- not right now though.

I-Jo Posted December 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 That lipstick. . Gurl! Killer Do you have a liner on or is that shadow smudged on the upper lip at the lash line? Love it :-) great job. . The write up is equally awesome! 1 Quote Link to comment
Acryllica Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 I should have specified, Tarte SmolderEYES is a liner It's a creamy pencil, slimmer than some I've used in the past. As creamy as it is, it dries well and stays put pretty well. My mom actually bought it but didn't like how it looked. My mom, buying GREEN eye liner. Mind blown. But ofcourse I'm all over that and happily took it off her hands. (Surprise, she had bought a set and only kept the gray and the bronze one. Kudos to mom for not-plain-black-eyeliner once in a while.) Quote Texas Mom of Boys, Druid Chick Link to comment
superjenni Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Ooh I bought that Tarte set I think. It had like 3 eyeliners and two big smudge pencils. I love the smudge pencils. Quote Link to comment
Acryllica Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Yeah my mom liked those too, she just gave me the green one (too wierd for her.) I had never tried the brand before but I like it. Quote Texas Mom of Boys, Druid Chick Link to comment
superjenni Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 The green was the first thing I tried. It was not successful on me. Quote Link to comment
I-Jo Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 no worries- I was skimming in a location I wasn't supposed to be anyway- so I may have glossed over it- tarte isn't a brand i'm wildly familiar with either.either way- looks super fabulous. I've been using the Rimmel smolder ones- ULTRA soft- have to set with pencil- great staying power though. makes me happy for a cheap brand that sets and blends so nicely! Quote Link to comment
Reluctant Amazon Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 I know this is more for makeup, but I just found a salon who made me comfortable they can help me find a haircut I can jump between modes with. No I just have to actually call and make the appointment. (Ah the joy of social phobia...) 2 Quote Link to comment
I-Jo Posted December 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 YEAH!!! congratulations! That's a big step! Anyone get pictures of Christmas/Holiday party make up? I think I have ONE. I spent all day moving- and managed to save my make up- so I was still able to get dressed and do the face. WOOT WOOT. will post a little later Quote Link to comment

sylph Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Question ladies: Eyelid primer: yay or nay? If yay, what's you're favorite? Quote Link to comment
MariahSnow Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Question ladies: Eyelid primer: yay or nay? If yay, what's you're favorite?I bought a sample bottle of the Urban Decay potion stuff from Ulta (I think it was mentioned somewhere here in an earlier post). I tend to have oily skin and oily eyelids, so I use it for sure when I'm doing eyeshadow. In fact, because I'm also very fair skinny my eyelids tend to look kind of pink-purplish and that annoys me. So today I put the eyelid primer on and no shadow or anything just to take some of that purple hue out of my lids. Quote Amazon Warrior 29, F, 5'11 ft, 159lbs #1, #2, #3, #4, #5 Link to comment
I-Jo Posted January 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Question ladies: Eyelid primer: yay or nay? If yay, what's you're favorite?I don't do eyeshadow with out some sort of primer or base. I've tried a few- right now I'm kind of stuck on the mabelline tattoo pots- they are like MAC paint pots- they work better than any of the eye lid primers I've ever used. Mariah- how did you like the UDPP? I saw it was on sale- the travel size I think for 10 bucks. I was seriously tempted but I passed. Quote Link to comment
