CG's Electric Nights Summer collection- 'Treble Maker'

Happy Weekend!

It's a nice, long 3-day weekend for tons of people here in the States.

Lots of sunshine, boating, drinking, eating, and general partying is going on :P

As such, I have a bright, party-isn neon for you today.

I have to apologize in advance for my nails.

I had to pack up my classroom for the summer,

and the boxes/moving were not kind to my nails :/

Anyway, here's 2 coats of 'Treble Maker'.

'Treble Maker' is a neon lime/blue-green that is sure to draw attention.

Formula was good; not streaky or thin like CG's Spring collection.

Opacity was good- it only took 2 coats to reach :)

Cocktail Makeup Series- Kiwi Blueberry Mojito

It's that time again!

Now that the warmer weather/summer is basically upon us,

it's time for my annual Cocktail Makeup Series :)

Today's look is based off of this gem that I found on Pinterest:
Kiwi Blueberry Mojito

This bad boy looks DELISH.

(Find the full recipe here!)

These colors are two of my favorite to play with on my eyes,

so I was really excited to create a variation of this for my series.

Here's my look:

I used:

UD's Primer Potion

UD's 'Sabbath' & 'Heroine'- crease

Sugarpill's 'Afterparty' & Sleek's 'Bolt'- highlight

Sleek's 'Powi' & 'Cream Soda'- inner corners

Sleek's 'Pear Drop', 'Mint Cream', & 'Cricket'- lid/lower lash line

Covergirl Clump Crusher mascara

Colourpop Cosmetics - Julep

I have another one of the four lippies I purchased the other day to show you!

This one is another pink, but it's much more toned down than 'Go Fish'.

Here's Julep:

Julep is described as "a bright red coral" cream... but I don't know about the 'red' part :)

This was really a gorgeous color that's perfect for Spring or Summer.

The creamy texture to the hippie was great,

and I would definitely suggest it for the upcoming season!

Game of Thrones makeup series- Dorne

Happy Sunday Funday!

I have another post in my GoT makeup series today.

If you've been watching the show lately,

you'll know that Dorne is becoming an increasingly prominent place,

with the Martells being from/ruling there, Oberyn, and the Sand Snakes.

Here are a few of the pictures I used of Dorne as inspiration:

And here's the soft/subtle look I created:

I used:

UD's Primer Potion

UD's 'Lucky', 'Reign', & 'Brokedown'- crease

SYN Cosmetics' 'Slim'- inner corners

SYN Cosmetics' 'Blaze' & 'Zone'- lids

SYN Cosmetics' 'Trace' & 'Greedy'- lower lash line

Covergirl Clump Crusher mascara

Revlon Matte Lip Balm 'Mischievous'

Happy Tuesday!

Ya'll know I love me some Revlon matte balms.

I've done God knows how many posts on them because they're AMAZEBALLS & perfection.

Today, I have a light, spring/summery matte balm for you.

This is 'Mischievous'.

This is a pastel, orange-cream matte balm.

It's screams summer, and the tanner your skin... the better this would look.

My face isn't super tan, as you can see :)

Regardless, it's a great balm.

Looks great, feels great, and lasts great :)

Colourpop Cosmetics- 'Go Fish'

Happy Mother's Day!!

So I know I've been MIA of a week or two again,

but the end of the school year is truly winding down now,

(I have ONE full week left!)

and my schedule is crazy busy.

However, I finally took some time to blog about 1 of the 4 new Colourpop lippies that I ordered a week or two ago.

Today's post is about 'Go Fish'.

This is the first Hyper Glossy lippie that I've tried.

I usually prefer a matte finish,

so I was skeptical about liking this one.

Here it is:

'Go Fish' is described as a "vibrant, coral-red"... but it's more of a vibrant, hot pink ;)

Either way, IT'S AWESOME.

I couldn't believe how much I loved it.

Summer is a perfect time for a lippie like this,

and I can't wait to break it out :)
