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

Cocktail Makeup Series- So Far (Review)

I AM NOT DEAD.

I know it's been a hot minute since i've posted,

but i've been so busy with finishing up things for my license and graduating college.

I finally did it, though!!

Which means now I have more time to blog :)

If you followed my blog last summer,

you'll know I started a makeup series based off of various cocktails.

I plan to do that again this year (and am currently taking requests!!),

so I wanted to recap what I've done so far.

Watermelon Daiquiri

Margarita

Global Warmer

Long Island Iced Tea

Tart Sangria

Gin & Sprite w/ Lime

The attached links go to each looks' respective post,

where you can find more pics, recipes, and products used.

I plan on creating even better (quality wise, anyway) looks this year.

Any suggestions you guys have, let me know!

Cocktail Makeup Series- Global Warmer

Hey evrry body. 

Sorry for the mini hiatus,

my life has been crazy the past week or two.

Things are starting to stabilize now,

just in time for another look in my cocktail makeup series!

Today's look is based off of a Global Warmer:

Seeing how hot it's been lately, I figured this drink was appropriate :P

And here's the look I came up with!

...

I used:

Too Faced's Shadow Insurance

(ALL BFTE shadows):

'Wacky' & 'Tangerine'- lid

'Lemon', 'Envy', & 'Green Apple'- waterline

Covergirl Line Exact liquid eyeliner

L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes

This look is super simple,

but I liked playing around with the color combo.

If you haven't tried any BFTE cosmetics yet,

you are missing out!

They're UH MAZING.

What do you guys think?

Cocktail Makeup Series- Margarita!

Hellooooooo.

Hope you all had a safe and fun Memorial Day yesterday,

for those of you who live in the US :)

Today i'm continuing my cocktail makeup series with a personal summer favorite of mine- 

margaritas!

Based on the lovely greens and yellows of this drink,

here's my look!

I used:

Too Faced's Shadow Insurance

NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in 'Milk'

BFTE 'Lemon', & 'Envy- lid

BFTE 'Green Apple'- crease

I'm seriously in love with the BFTE rainbow sampler I bought fairly recently.

All the shadows in it are so bright & pigmented,

with just the right amount of sparkle :)

What do you think about this look?

Do you have an idea for a cocktail for my series? 

Let me know in a comment :)

Cocktail Makeup Series- Strawberry (or watermelon?) Daiquiri

Hey everyone!

Today I have the second look of my cocktail makeup series for you :)

Awhile ago, I asked on my fb what your favorite cocktail was,

and someone suggested a strawberry daiquiri- so that's what I went for.

However, after I finished with it, I couldn't decide if the colors made it look more like

a watermelon than strawberry? :/

Either way, here it is!

I used:

Too Faced's Shadow Insurance

Sugarpill's 'Love+' & UD's 'Noise'- lid

Sugarpill's 'Midori' & UD's 'Junkie'- crease

UD's 'Junkie' & 'Homegrown'- waterline

L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes mascara

Covergirl Line Exact liquid eyeliner

What do you guys think?

More watermelon or strawberry?

Either way, I really like the combo!

I'm having a lot of fun with this series :)

Stay tuned tomorrow for my next installment in my game of thrones series!

NEW Cocktail Makeup Series- 'Long Island Iced Tea'

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there!

Now,

Yes, i have yet another new makeup series.

Being that it's finally summer time,

I wanted to do a makeup series to reflect that.

And one thing I think of when I think of summer is yummy, bright, fruity, delicious cocktails :)

When I started thinking about some of my favorite drinks,

I realized they're composed of tons of color that could really inspire some cool looks.

SO, that's the basis for my new series.

I'll do one look a week

 (i'll try to do it on the same day every week, but we'll see).

FIRST UP, is my personal favorite go-to cocktail.

I don't drink liquor often (i'm a wino),

but when I do, it's an LIT.

*not my picture*

It's a pretty popular drink,

but in case you don't know what it is...

IT HAS:

- 1/2 oz of tequila, rum, triple sec, gin, vodka

- 1 oz sour mix

- cola

- lemon garnish

IT'S DELICIOUS.

So, based off the colors,

here's the look I created:

I really liked this.

It's much more subdued than the other looks i've created so far in this series,

which you have yet to see,

but I still like it. Definitely a wearable look for anyone.

I used:

Too Faced's Shadow Insurance

UD's 'Bust' & 'Nevermind'- crease

UD's 'Skimp'- brow bone

UD's 'Half Baked', Lime Crime's 'Circus Girl', SYN Cosmetics' 'Trace' & 'Down'- lid

L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes mascara

Covergirl Line Exact mascara

What do you guys think about this look?

ALSO, if you have any suggestions or requests for a cocktail I can create a look for,

let me know! :)
