My Little Pony makeup series- Pinkie Pie

Today's look in my My Little Pony series is based off of Pinkie Pie:

She's silly, energetic, and somewhat of a goofball :)

Here's the simple yet definitely 'pink' look I created based off of this character:



(in natural light)

(in indoor light)



I used:
UD's Primer Potion
UD's 'Freebird'- inner corners
SYN Cosmetics' 'Audacity'- lid
Sugarpill's 'Dollipop' & Sleek's 'Parma Violet'- crease
UD's 'Noise'- highlight

Colourpop Cosmetics- Tootsie

I have another lippie for Colourpop Cosmetics for you.
So far, I've shown you guys mattes, satins, and hyper-glosses.
Today, I have another (& my preferred choice) matte for you!




Here's 'Tootsie':


'Tootise' is a "cool-toned grey-beige" in a matte finish.
This, at first, struck me as a Fall/winter shade...
but once I got it on, I could easily see wearing in the summer, too.
I loved it!
These mattes go on like butter and are super easy to apply.
Can't say enough good things about this company!

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

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 :)

My Little Pony makeup series- Rarity

It's time for another installment in my My Little Pony makeup series!
Today's look is based off of Rarity:

Rarity represents the element of generosity in the series.
I decided to use her bold, white color as the main ingredient in my look,
with her mane and eye color as accents.
Here's what I came up with:




I used:
UD's Primer Potion
Sugarpill's 'Tako' & Sleek's 'Cream Soda'- lid
Sleek's 'Parm Violet' & 'Flump'- crease
Sleek's 'Bubble Gum' & 'Bolt'- lower lash line
Sugarpill's 'Poison Plum' & Sleek's 'Sugarlite'- highlight
Covergirl Line Exact eyeliner
Covergirl Clump Crusher mascara


I used pretty much all mattes for this look,
which I almost never do.
However, the brazen, clear color of Rarity seemed to call for such a thing.
I was uneasy about the harsh white on my lids, at first,
but it actually needed up working fairly well.


Stay tuned for more installments in the next week or so!
:)

Revlon's Matte Lip Balm- 'Sultry'

Happy Sunday Funday!
Ya'll know I have a slight obsession with Revlon's matte lip balms.
I snagged a new shade in the grocery store the other day,
'Sultry'!


Sultry is a medium-rose shade.



Here it is in indoor lighting:



... and natural lighting:
(definitely more pink)



I'm IN LOVE with these lip balms.
There hasn't been a single once I've tried that I didn't like.
They're a great price, go on super smoothly, last long, smell good, and are super easy to apply.
What more could you want?!


I haven't tried the lip balms that have a shine/sheen to them yet as matte is my favorite look.
Have you tried any of Revlon's balms- matte or not?

So not only is the name of this lippie six seductive,
but WAIT until you see this bad boy.
With Valentine's day right around the corner-

Sorry for the ghettofabulous pics;
I know they're a bit of a mess.
I've been super busy lately,
but I had to get this bad boy out!


For just $5, you can't beat it.

ColourPop Lippie Stix 'Ellarie'

Well, I have a newfound obsession.
I was told by GaGa for Nails to try Colourpop Cosmetics,
and I'm highly impressed!


I bought two matte lippie stix from them;
here is the first!
'Ellarie'


This hippie stix is described as a "deep, sultry cranberry"...
uh, yes, please!


Here it is in indoor lighting:


Annnnd in natural lighting:


It's absolutely gorgeous,
though I found it to be much lighter than the picture portrayed on their website.
Either way, I love it.


These stix are super easy to apply (even with my shaky hands)
and they feel great on.
Can't wait to buy more! :)))
