Daytime look

This look would be perfect to wear during the day.

I didn't apply false lashes to make it more "natural".

What I used:
Urban decay Yerba (skin tone shadow)
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Bare Minerals Flawless Definition Mascara
Mac Shroom
Mac Rubenesque Paint Pot
Stila's Shadow Trio in Champagne Glow
Lancome Eye liner in Noir

Prime your lids.

Apply a thin layer of rubenesque from the crease down. You can barely see it, I know.

Apply the gray-ish color from the Stila trio on top of rubenesque. With a clean brush blend the harsh lines on your crease by going back and forth on it.

With a pencil brush, or any smaller type of brush, apply the brown from the Stila trio shadows on the outer corner of the eye, making a "V" sideways, like so:

With a clean blending brush go on top of the brown and with circular motions blend it out a bit. Then apply some more of the brown shadow with the pencil brush the same way you did before and blend it again. You can do this as many times as you'd like, until you achieve the look you are after.

This are 3 steps in one photo.
1st. Apply a skin tone shadow on your crease. Smooth it really well.

2nd. Highlight your brow bone with a shimmery shadow.

3rd. Apply some color under your lower lashes. Going with the gray color on your inner half and brown on your outer half.

For eyeliner I used a pencil. Drew a kind of thicker line and the smudged it with a pencil brush, to get a softer look.

And applied a couple of coats of mascara.

And Voila!

Golden Christmas Look

This is another look I came up with for this Christmas season. I hope you all like it.

I used some drugstore products I recently found at walmart and I am sure if you look a lot closer than I did, you can find alternatives to all of the high end brands I used.

And finished the look with a very defined liner and dramatic lashes.

I don't know why my computer uploaded this photo and the next one sideways!

This is my BH cosmetics 28 Neutral colors palette. I used the colors in the circles.

Urban Decay Primer Potion

Mac's "Rubenesque" Paint Pot

Mac Eyeliner in "Gilded White"

Bare Escentuals eyeshadow in "Gold Gossamer"

Hard Candy Glitteratzi Gel eye glitter gel in "Goldfinger"

Hard Candy Liquid Walk the Line Eyeliner in "Dream Girl"

N.Y.C. Sparkle Eye Dust in "Opal Sparkle"

Stila Illuminating Finishing Powder in "Rose Gold"

Bare Minerals Flawless Definition Mascara

As always, start with an eye primer, apply it all over your lid.

Apply a very tiny amount of Rubenesque paint pot from the crease down.

On top of rubenesque apply Hard Candy's glitter gel. A tiny amount goes a long ways.

On top of the glitter gel apply a very generous amount of Gold Gossamer. I know, a lot of layering!

On your inner cornes (top and bottom) apply your sparkle eye dust, being very generous also.

Now we are going to add dimension to this look. With a blending/crease brush apply a shadow that's a little bit darker than your skin tone (shadow 1 from BH cosmetics palette) all over your crease, going back and forth until it's all well blended and no harsh lines are showing.

On top of the skin toned shadow you just applied on your crease we are going to apply a shadow that's a little bit lighter than your skin tone. I used the shadow number 2 in my BH palette. Blend it really good.

Apply a highlighter on your brow bone. I used Stila's Gold Rose illuminating finishing powder.

Go ahead and line your eyes. Go dramatic.

Apply a gold glittery eyeliner under your lower lashes and line your waterline with any white eyeliner.

And this is the finished look after applying mascara and false lashes. If you are wondering what kind of lashes I use, I only use Model 21 Eyelashes.

I know my face doesn't match my neck very good, that's because I was testing Revlon's Photo Ready foundation and the shade I bought doesn't match my skintone. I will post a review on that soon.

Face: revlon's photo ready foundation, laura mercier secret camouflage undereye concealer, clinique's finishing powder, nars laguna bronzer, nars deep throat blush, stila illuminating finishing powder in gold rose.

Beautyticket.com haul

This is my first time buying from this site. I've had my eye on it for a while but didn't get anything until now. Their prices are pretty good compared to retail but I always found that I could get the same products from All Cosmetics Wholesale for a better price.
You can have access to "private sales" if you sign up to receive emails and offers from them. Their private sales come every now and then and have pretty good prices, sometimes they give you a coupon to use on top of the sale. Last week I received an email for a 50% off of everything Stila coupon, their prices are already discounted and added this coupon I practically bought my Stila cosmetics for dirt cheap.
Their selection of products is not very big but they add items constantly.
Anyways, here is what I got:
Stila Eye Shadow Trio in "Champagne Glow"

This product retails for a good $28 dollars. I paid $6.49.
Here are the swatches for the colors. I absolutely LOVE this shadows, they are so pigmented.

Stila Lip Envy Silk Shimmer Lip Gloss Trio #6

This lipglosses retail for $60.00. I paid 7.49.

Swatches.

Stila Convertible Eye Color in "Lapis" (top); and

Rock and Republic Noir Eye Liner in "Ultra Black".

Stila's liner retails for $22.00. I paid 4.49.

Rock and Republic liner retails for $28.00. I paid $12.99.

Swatches.

"Mystery 5 Piece Bag" for medium complexion.

When you buy this you don't know what you get until you actually receive your product in the mail. I was so excited to open this bag.

This is what came in it:

I was impressed with how fast the products got to me. It took 4 days from the time I placed my order, that's pretty fast. Shipping is reasonable ($6.95) and the prices are pretty good. I would definitely buy from this site again. To check out this site click here.

Bronze Copper eye look

I came up with this look after receiving my lastest package from allcosmeticswholesale.com. I used Stila's Illuminating finishing powder in Bronze. I didn't like it as a bronzer but the moment I saw it I knew I was going to love for eye makeup. So here is what I came up with.

I forgot to take a photo of the stuff I used so I downloaded it from the internet:
Stila Illuminating finishing powder in Bronze
Skin tone shadow from Urban Decay's Yerba
Urban Decay Liquid Liner in Perversion
Lancome Eye Kohl in White
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Estee Lauder Sumptuos Mascara
Mac Shroom Eye shadow
Mac Constructivist Paint pot
Mac Fluidline in Blacktrack

Here is what I did:
After applying foundation and eyebrow powder, this is what I look like

First I applied UD's primer potion all over the lid.
Then I applied Mac's constructivist paint pot on my lid, under the crease and under my lower lashes. Smoothing the harsh lines as I do it.

With a crease brush I applied a skin toned shadow on my crease, I was very generous with it too.

I applied Stila's bronze on my lid, under the crease. I packed on really good.

(I just realized I forgot to mention one product: Black eyeshadow, any kind!)
With a blending brush apply a tiny amount of black shadow on your outer corner and then blend it, then go at it again and blend it. I did this 3 times to achieve the effect I wanted.

Line your inner corner with white eyeliner, like so:

Apply a white shimmery shadow (I udsed Mac's shroom) on top of the white.

With a small brush apply Bronze under your lashes, on top of Constructivist paint pot, but not over the wait.

Apply a good amount of shroom on your brow bone, to highlight the area.

I used Mac's Fluidliner to line my waterlines. I was messy on the bottom area.

With a small brush smudge the eyeliner under your lashes. This will add the "smokey" effect to the look.

Apply eyeliner on. I used UD's perversion.

Apply a couple of coats of mascara on top and bottom lashes.

Final Look after applying false lashes.

Face: Nars Laguna, Nars Deep Throat and Stila Illuminating Finishing Powder in Rose Gold (I did MAJOR contouring for this look. MAJOR!)

Lips: Lancome Pink Poodle, Mac Lipglass in C-thru.
