A Holiday Makeup Tutorial (Fall to Winter)

 

This is a really simple tutorial. If you have a kit from ULTA it should have five colors just like this in it. If not, it's just three shades of red, a dark glittery green, and a sparkly black (You can use any black. I chose a sparkly black for my version of this look. The effect will be about the same no matter what.)

 

Here is a full list of the products I used and where you can find them;

 - ULTA Eyeshadows in Rags to Riches, Firework, Cherry Bomb, and Love http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod3570089&skuId=2246611&_requestid=116290

 - Black glittery eye shadow from Forever21 (I recommend ULTA eyeshadow in Galaxy as an alternative.)

 - Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter Pencil http://chella.com/products/item/lace_highlighter_pencil/

 - MicaBeauty Gel Eyeliner in Black http://www.micabeauty.com/gel-eyeliner.html/?gg

 - Clinique Mascara http://www.sephora.com/mascara-eyes-makeup?ref[]=900162&categoryName=mascara-eyes-makeup

 - Joelle Bronzer (This was actually a gift so I am not sure where you can buy it.)

 - Be a Bombshell Blush http://beabombshellcosmetics.com/blush/

- Benefit Cosmetics Watt's Up! http://www.sephora.com/watt-s-up-P295206?skuId=1357250

November ipsy Glam Bag Review (2013)

The ipsy glam bag is a $10 monthly beauty subscription which includes 4-5 sample, travel, and full-size drugstore and high-end products each month. This month they gave me 6 products with a total retail value of $89. I am so impressed! I love getting new products each month and not breaking my budget! It's great! Go to http://www.ipsy.com/r/10kn and subscribe to get your own glam bag!



The products I received in my glam bag this month;

- pillow plush cushiony lip balm from em michelle phan in lollipop (retails for $15)

I was so excited to try out a product from em! There is not much color, but it really is a bit of fresh air to the lips. I'm definitely wanting to try more from em. I love the packaging! Very cool! I've used it almost everyday since I got my glam bag.



- Be a Bombshell Lip Crayon in Shameless (retails for $14)

This is not one of my favorite products I have gotten, but the color is nice. I like it, I just probably won't use it much. I tend to use more natural lip colors.













- Nailtini Straight Up Color Nail Lacquer in Caviar Cocktail (retails for $13)

I really like Nailtini's formula! so even though this is my third nail polish I have gotten from ipsy, I'm always happy to get more.














- Pixi Beauty Bronzer (retails for $18)

Great quality! This color works for me and I like the packaging. Pixi is awesome and another one of those brands I cannot get enough of.














- Starlooks Gem Eye Pencil in Topaz (retails for $14)

I normally don't like getting Starlooks products, but this color is beautiful! If you watch my makeup tutorials, this will not be the last time you see this product! I've been using it a lot lately and I'm happy with the results. It's a silver color and goes on creamy and pure. It makes for a really cool inner corner highlight on the eyes.










- Cailyn Built-In Sponge Tip Mineral Eye Shadow in Champagne (retails for $15)

This stuff is so cool! I do love Cailyn Cosmetics, but the interesting thing about this product is you can use it for so many things by adding different mediums. You can use it as an eye shadow, liner, mascara color, or lip color. If you add it to clear nail polish, it can be a nail color. I love stuff like this!

 

ipsy gets an A+ in my book! this was an excellent bag!

S&D Series: Dramatic Cat-Eye Look

 If you want a vampy/catty look, here is the look for you! For the bold and the beautiful, use this as a fun new everyday look. If you are an elegant gal, this is a good look for parties or sophisticated gatherings. This look is actually really versatile. I think most people can probably pull it off just about anywhere. I like this look a lot! It's one of my favorites.





Products Used:
     - NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk
     - ULTA Eye Shadows; Ice Queen, Galaxy, Gunmetal, and Silk
     - Maybelline Define-A-Line Eyeliner in Ebony Black
     - Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter Pencil
     - Jordana Best Lash Extreme Volumizing Mascara

Alice in Wonderland Nails

 

 

Products used; China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat, Claire's Nail Care Nail Art Brushes, Claire's nail jewels, Nailtini Straight Up Color Nail Lacquer in Frappe & Mai Tai, China Glaze Nail Lacquer in Smoke and Ashes & Blonde Bombshell, Ultra Pro Salon Formula Nail Lacquer in Royal Purple & Molten Red, Mary Kay Nail Lacquer in Blue Lotus, Lime Crime Crema De Limon, Revlon Nail Art Expressionist Pink, and Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat

 

The clock on my thumb represents is for the rabbit, the cup on my pointer finger is for the Mad Hatter, on my middle finger is blonde hair with a bow I made out of two heart-shaped jewels draped over a blue dress for Alice, my ring finger has a heart on it for the Queen of Hearts/the Red Queen, and pinky is purple with pink stripes for the Cheshire Cat.

If you're not into Alice in Wonderland, this could still be a fun nail art experiment for you. And each picture could represent something else. Example: A clock for spending your time well, a cup for relaxation and enjoying the simple things, a girl for youth and beauty always and forever on the inside, a heart for love, purity, and compassion, and finally, the stripes for playfulness and inspiration!

the Art of Beauty ipsy Glam Bag (October 2013)

I loved this month's ipsy glam bag! This was one of my favorites!!!!! The theme was art, so the pictures and the artwork for this month and the bag--they were all really fun!

I saw a lot of fun bag artwork done with the bag this month! You can check that out on the ipsy fan page on facebook! Please do, it's awesome! Here's mine and it is bland because I'm to busy to do artwork outside of my painting class right now.

Loved the artwork for this month!

Ok so now to the REALLY good stuff! First off, my favorite product from this month was the deliciously smelling sparkly Buxom Full-On™ Lip Polish in Dolly. So amazing! Amazing, amazing, amazing! And freaking $19.00! It's like twice as much as I paid for the bag! So right there the bag pays for itself...sorta. It is an incredible lip gloss though. It makes my lips feel good too, soooooo BONUS!

Another product I liked very much was the Zoya nail polish. The color is beautiful and young. It is a good fall color, but I think the one I got would make an even better summer color. Zoya nail polish retails for $8 and it is good quality nail polish. So with the lip gloss that is already $27 worth of product for $10 + the bag.

La Fresh® Eco-Beauty® Oil-Free Face Cleanser Wipes were in my bag this month and I am always needing more wipes for when I travel, like smaller package, but this is not one of my favorite brands. These wipes just are not very good at getting my makeup off. But this is still a useful sample. This size sample would retail for $5.99.

 



The next product I have here is Sexy Hair Blow Dry Gel. This is a travel size sample and it retails for $5. I think it is an interesting product. I love getting hair products. BUT I don't blow dry my hair so it is not really useful for me. I will probably add this to gift basket, or use it as a stocking stuffer or something. I can still do something with it, but I don't personally get to try it.

Nourish Organic Deeply Nourishing Coconut & Argan Body Lotion. Never heard of it, but it smells great and with dry skin season coming up I am super excited to try it out. This is a Target product and it is travel size so it is only 1/8 of the full-size. If I had to guess, I would probably say this sample size product is probably only worth $1.25. But I am being introduced to a new product and it is one I am looking forward to trying.

This was such a fun and wonderful bag. I'm so excited to try out these new products! The retail of this bag is at least $39.24. The ipsy subscription is only $10.00. I think that is an excellent deal!

Feminine Fall Look

This tutorial is inspired by the Feminine Palette from Urban Decay. Go to urdbandecay.com to get this palette for only $16.00

This is the second tutorial in a series of three tutorials using the Feminine Palette from Urban Decay. The first video was an everyday look; much more subtle and classic. This look is more catty and more dramatic. It reminds me a lot of Ursula from the Little Mermaid, because of the colors. It's kind of a villainy look, but at the same time it is not so bold that you couldn't wear it everyday if you wanted to. Which means this makeup could be worn on a night out or if you are going to an event or on a date. If you are someone who likes to wear dramatic looks everyday, this is a wonderful everyday look, but it definitely has more fall-time colors. It's very dark. Not really much of a summer look.

Products used:

- Too Faced Shadow Insurance
- Mary Kay Cream Eye Color in Beach Blonde
- the Feminine Palette from Urban Decay (UD Shadows; Hijack, Gunmetal, AC/DC, Skimp, Lost, & Bordello)
- Cailyn Cosmetics Line-Fix Gel Eyeliner*
- Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter Pencil*
- Clinique Mascara
- yaby concealer*
- Joelle Bronzer
- Clinique Blush
- Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lip Gloss in Wall-Flower

*3 products used in this video were items I received from ipsy glam bag subscription. Learn more here; http://www.ipsy.com/?refer=u-hbparsajrppg16j2

 

How to get the "Hunger Games: Catching Fire" nail look I'm wearing in this video. (Fiery Ombre Nails)

 

You will need; a nail polish base (mine is from China Glaze), a bright red nail polish, a bright orange nail polish (China Glaze "Riveting"), a gold glitter nail polish (China Glaze "Electrify"), a cosmetics sponge, some kind of palette (I just used cardboard.), and a top coat.

 

Step 1: Base Coat

Step 2: Paint your nails either red or orange, whichever color you want to be more prominent. I painted my undercoat orange, because the red I used was a bit darker than the orange and I wasn't sure if the orange would show up on top of it. Let dry.

(You are going to have to work fast with these next few steps to prevent the polish from drying on the sponge or the palette before you get it on your nail.)

Step 3: Paint two lines, one on top of the other, the width of your nail, onto your palette. Don't be afraid to make paint it thick.

Step 4: Use the sponge as a stamp. Press it lightly onto the polish on your palette, then stamp the polish onto your fingernail. Press firmly (this is why it is so important the first two layers of polish on your nails is dry first. You may have to stamp twice to get the brightness you need. Always stamp the same direction. I stamped the two colors so that the pure red would be at the tips and the pure orange color would be at the cuticles.
Step 5: Paint on the glitter. Thicker at the cuticle to get the effect of fire. I prefer the China Glaze polish in "Electrify" from the Hunger Games collection, because it has red and gold glitter in it. I think you can still purchase this collection on Cherry Culture.
Step 6: Top coat.

August ipsy Glam Bag 2013 Review

     The August ipsy Glam Bag is all about back to school! It's basically like a "Glamour Academy" starter kit, things you'll need for the new school year, starting with mascara, because everyone needs mascara.

     Pixi Beauty Lash Booster Mascara in Blackest Black
Pixi is a good brand. I use their primer and it works wonders. This is a very small sample, but I love getting mascara.

     Michael Todd Jojoba Charcoal Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub
It feels a lot like a microdermabrasion scrub. Definitely gives a deep clean and it smells really good! This was one of the very many full-size objects I received in my ipsy bag this month. Getting more than samples in my glam bag each month is my favorite part of this subscription service.

     Chella Dazzling Dark Brown Eyebrow Color Pencil
This was actually too dark for me, but the quality is great. This product makes it easier to shape your brows. It's much faster than using powder. This was another wonderful brand!

     noya Lip Balm
I don't know much about this brand, but lip balm is always a good thing to have around, especially with autumn approaching and the dry air with it.

     Pacifica Alight Multi-Mineral BB Cream
Pacifica is AMAZING! This is a great way to speed up your morning routine.

     Join me on ipsy and subscribe to the Glam Bag! You get 4-5 beauty products every month delivered to your door, for just $10. Michelle Phan curates the bags! Check it out here: http://www.ipsy.com/?refer=u-hbparsajrppg16j2
