So I tried to use the Pop Teal Eyes cake and the light mint color and the light grey were really unusable on my lid. Since they didn’t work, I grabbed for some Beauty from the Earth shadows that were the colors I wanted.

I wanted to break out my Too Faced Fun in the Dark Palette (I won it via Twitter) and give that a whirl today. I also used my Shamrock Chic duo.
I LOVE how my lips turned out. Seriously. Had no idea they could look so nice with this combo.

I don’t think my blush turned out right. I always have problems knowing if I’m putting it in the right spot. Some days it looks fine, other days it just looks weird. Ah well, that’s why I keep practicing
I got my brows waxed last night, and I’m really happy with the shape. Apparently my left eye brow grows denser than my right eye brow, so it was driving me crazy! I love getting waxed. Still getting my underarms and my brows done
I’m so glad the week is almost over!
So it feels like Summer in Florida. It’s hot. I love it. I really do. I wanted a minty look, so I put together this look, which reminds me a bit of mojitos.

Happy Friday!
I had a wonderful first day of spring. I took the day off of work and spent it playing with Phaedra and Honey, my friend’s dog. Then later in the day I took Dave to lunch, and then we went to the MAC store.
Since I knew I was going to hit the MAC store, I wanted to wear Aquavert. However, I was torn on what to use in the crease. Should I use Shimmermoss? Phlox? No, I decided I’d be daring and use Darling Misfit. And learning my lesson from yesterday, no lippy that blended in with my skin for me, so I chose Lollipop-pop. OMG this is a MUST HaVE color for me. I love the blue sheen. It’s just gorgeous. I kept staring at my lips
Surpisingly, I really like Aquavert and Darling Misfit together. I’m sure some would find it hideous, but I liked it, the MA at the store I was at today complimented me on, and Dave liked it. So that’s a win in my book
I think the very visible aqua shimmer in Darling Misfit ties it together with Aquavert.
Shade Descriptions:
Lollipop-pop – a fun vibrant light pink with a blue highlight
Darling Misfit – deep magenta-pink with contrasting aqua highlight
Nijiro – ivory with rainbow sparkles
Aquavert – Soft mint with white pearlized pigments
Candy – a true pink with sheer iridescence that will embrace cheeks with a touch of sweetness!
Kyoto – pale sky blue with glittery aqua-blue foil, great over black gloss or pink lipstick
Eyes:
Too Faced Shadow insurance
MAC Aquavert – on eyelid
Fyrinnae Darling Misfit – crease
Fyrinnae Nijiro – to highlight
Fyrinnae Kyoto – a tiny bit where Darling Misfit & Aquavert meet
Aromaleigh Indelible Gel Eyeliner Black Out – upper lash line
Urban Decay 24/7 liner – Zero
MAC Pro Lash Black Mascara
Cheeks:
Aromaleigh Candy blush
Lips:
Fyrinnae Lollipop-pop
Face:
Meow Pampered Puss foundation in Inquisitive Sphynx

Yes, I’m a saucy minx!
So I went to the MAC store to look at the Sugarsweet collection and I really liked Lollipop Loving and Sweet Thing. I tried them on, and Dave hated how I looked in Lollipop Loving. He said it was not a flattering shade on me. However, he loved Sweet Thing on me and thought it was a perfect color for me. So I picked up Sweet Thing and another Pro Lash Black Mascara since mine is almost gone.


Sweet Thing – Mid-tone magenta with multi-dimensional pearl (Lustre)
When I came home, I had two surprises in the mail. The first was a package from Robyn of Purely Cosmetics, and it was two other foundations to try: Fair Maiden in the skin smoothing formula and Peaches n’ Cream in the Skin smoothing formula. I’ll be trying out Fair Maiden tomorrow.

And finally, my samples from Mixology arrived. 6 samples for $5 is a great deal. Well, Iceberg was a free sample that Rae threw in

Starlight – great light highlighter with lots of sparkle (made in honor of Edward’s sparkling skin from Twilight)
Iceberg – A cool powder blue with silver grey undertones
Suga – a shimmery opal pink
Armor – a steel silver
Soot – smoky, charcoal grey, semi-matte
Dune – a light beige color
I recently received an order from Beautiful Girl Minerals. I mentioned when I placed my order that I’d seen them on Shades of U, and they sent me samples of the Eternal Beauty Kit (shades with names based off of the Twilight Series), which was very kind of them!
Daring is gorgeous and very pigmented, so I am very happy with this order. I can’t wait to try the other colors.
