i love my fyrinnae shadows....unfortunately i am not very good at photographing them. the main color in this is called mephisto, but i don't think the duochrome shows up that great....oh well :/ p.s. i resized all the photos, but they aren't showing up smaller for me. not sure what to do...

so i have been lazy about posting FOTDs since like april....so this is what happens. and there are plenty i didn't take pics of or got annoyed because i couldn't get a good pic. so now here is where i try to remember every makeup item i have used in these looks.... and i resized the pics, so...

i am deathly afraid of a primer clogging my pores and breaking me out, so i am looking for a primer that will keep my makeup on ALL DAY that is silicone-free and hopefully with an SPF. i have combo skin. i prefer a natural primer, but other ones are fine, too. suggestions?

so i was really excited because my parents said they would buy me a malm for my birthday. and then i saw that the large one is discontinued. does anyone know how the dimensions of the small one compare? specifically the drawer itself? if not, does anyone know of anything close to it from...

for my birthday i went out one night and then went to dinner the next....here are the various looks (i kept switching lip colors) so for the first look i had a few skin mishaps.....first with a non-eye safe pigment, after which i was luckily able to cover the redness. but then a waxing mishap...

so for my birthday i'm looking to do some kind of combo using the following colors on my eyes: mac full force violet pigment (if you haven't seen it, it's a SERIOUSLY bright matte purple) carbon (or some other kind of black) stars and rockets i'm open to any add-ons. i like smoky and dramatic...

grrrr....i like to wear matte blush almost every day. i use either nars or milani. i have tried about a million different brushes, and no matter what, it always ends up splotchy--darker in some areas, or looking like i applied it in a weird shape.... never had this problem with more shimmery...

first time i tried pink bronze. kinda went for an overall sun-kissed bronzey look to go with it (since i'm pale and all). face: the usual plus trish mcevoy bronzer trish mcevoy highlighter nars blush in amour eyes: pink bronze pigment expensive pink nylon too faced mess in a dress e/s...

haven't posted in a while, didn't feel like i had anything worth putting up. but i like how this came out. but i think the blending looked nicer in person....stupid camera flash. here's what i used: eyes: smashbox lid primer nyx jumbo pencil in yogurt nyx e/s in black (outer lid and crease)...

okay....here is what i am looking for.... a cool-toned mauvey pink that is not too bright, perhaps a little "dusty" looking, NOT shimmery. somewhat of a "my lips but better" shade, but dustier and mauvier, because creme cup is pretty much my lip color. i'd say something like a less bright...

so i decided to go for neutrals for once...but this is from a couple of weeks ago, so i'll try to remember everything i used....it's all the usual face stuff so i won't go over that.... eyes: brule, haux, brun, phloof e/s blacktrack fluidline cg lashblast mascara cheeks: nars blush in amour (i...

so i spent forever trying to coordinate my look right....my dress was dark blue and sparkly but i wore black tights and shoes. and i was set on silver on my eyes. so here is what i came up with.....kinda hard to capture in photos cuz it looks so different in each one, but i tried to get pics of...

i live in miami and flew to dc to visit home for a bit. we went out to dinner with some family friends and this is the look i did.....definitely a more toned down look for me but i love how it turned out! oh and i hate static!!! what i used: face: bare minerals foundation benefit erase paste...

too excited about all this stuff not to share! this is from about the past two weeks or so....i've been on kind of a binge and now i'm officially on a moratorium for a month and a half. this stuff is from sephora, mac, ulta, and makeup geek (the pigments and nyx shadow). i am lucky because...

sooo....look at me i actually decided to go out and be social! (on the night before my final...oops). judging from these pics, what i need to do is go out during the day! lol....i think this is my best blending job so far, i'm improving! anyways, hope you enjoy! this is what i used: face...

so, instead of studying for my final....i did a major job on my eyebrows, played with makeup, and listened to lady gaga i was in desperate need of a brow overhaul. for some reason grad school and eyebrow up-keep do not agree.....lemme know if you think they came out okay! i cleaned up the...

okay...so clearly i need some photography tips. what looks super bright and vivid in the mirror doesn't look as amazing in pictures! you can't really tell in the pics, but it goes from violet at the outside, to cobalt, to light blue, to white in the inner lid. i swear it looks cool in person...
