About Norman Love Chocolates: Sweet Love was my least favorite. It had a weird liquidy filling, kind of like caramel, but gross. The pumpkin chocolate was strange, because it really did taste like a piece of pumpkin pie. Ginger Lime tasted pretty good, a whole lot better than I thought it would. The dark chocolate truffle was good, but not great or addicting. The berry kiss was amazing! I wish I had ten more! It was so yummy! It tasted like strawberry shortcake and white chocolate.



S&D: Dangerously Livid Makeup Tutorial

 

      I cannot believe it! We are at the sixth tutorial in the Stars & Daylilies series. This one was inspired by many, many, many things! The main thing of course was the three colors; Grace, Amethyst, and Elegance. This tutorial was also inspired by the february 2013 ipsy glam bag.

 

 

 

     I apologize for those of you who cannot view, but I have included pictures and a list of products used, and I'll try to walk you through the process of creating this look.

 

  

Products used;

- Too Faced Shadow Insurance
- NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk
- ULTA Eyeshadows in Grace, Amethyst, and Elegance
- Coastal Scents Eyeshadows in Dark Golden Rod and Golden Globe
- MICA Beauty Cosmetics' Gel Liner
- Maybelline Define-A-Line Ebony Black liner
- pop! mascara
- Joelle Bronzer
- ULTA blush in Sweet Cheeks
- ULTA lipstick in Sugar & Spice

     The first thing I did was apply an eyeshadow base. Then I applied my eye pencil all over the top and bottom lid. I packed a matte plumb eyeshadow from ULTA onto the pencil using a small Sonia Kashuk eye shadow brush. The shadow I used for this is called Grace. Next, I took Amethyst eyeshadow from ULTA and put it into the crease with a bamboo crease brush from Icing by Claire's. I pulled this dark shimmery color up towards the brow and then added a silver highlight right under the brow with the same crease brush. The color used was Elegance from ULTA. I faded it into Amethyst by pulling the existing color under my brow towards the crease. When fading any color out or into another color, I never add more of the color, I always just use whatever is already on my face.
     I smoothed out the edges and added a highlight into the inner corner of the eye using Elegance. I used Coastal Scents' Dark Golden Rod on the inner half of the bottom lid. Then I took Golden Globe, also by Coastal Scents, and added a bit of brightness to the inner lash line, kind of like how I would apply eyeshadow as eye liner, only on the inner top lid though. I used gel liner by MICA Beauty Cosmetics to create a short tapered effect. I used pop! mascara to make my eyes look bigger. I lined my waterline with Maybelline Define-A-Line Ebony Black liner.
     I used my Joelle bronzer and ULTA Sweet Cheeks blush. For lips I used Sugar and Spice lipstick from ULTA.

     I think this look is super dangerous! I hope you all feel inspired to create your own dramatic look! And if you do, feel free to tweet me a picture @JesseFaithR
     I can't wait to see what you come up with!

S&D: Glinda the Good Witch Inspired Makeup

     So, when I was experimenting with the colors for this tutorial, I was originally invisioning a princess look, but when I finally came up with this look it reminded me of Glinda the Good Witch and since Oz the Great and Powerful is coming out this Friday, what could be better than creating a look you can wear when you go see the movie?! It is still very princess-like, but it has a fairy quality to it. I really like how it turned out. I also added a little Glinda nail tutorial at the end. Let me know what you think!
