Hey guys! I wanted to end this month with a color that’s kind of common, but has a very unique name. Zinnwaldite Brown reminds me of crystals, but unfortunately I don’t own any crystals or jewelry that has this shade of brown. I decided to use the TooFaced Natural Eyes palette to get this gorgeous color. Sexpresso is the perfect color to match Zinnwaldite Brown.Read Now
#atozchallenge 2016//Y is for Yellow
Hey guys! I know today’s color isn’t as creative as other days. However, I’m not much of a fan of bright colors like yellow, so this color was very out of comfort zone. I decided to wear a pair of my Harry Potter socks paired with a skater skirt and plain shirt. It’s a very simple outfit, and I love how the red really bringsRead Now
#atozchallenge 2016//X is for Xanadu
Hey guys! The only letter X for colors that I could find was Xanadu. I really love the cool slate color and instantly thought of one of my new lipsticks. I think the MAC Halsey lipstick is perfect for this color if you have tanned skin. On other skin tones, the blue (pale skin tones) or the grey (dark skin tones) is more pronounced. IfRead Now
#atozchallenge 2016//W is for Wine
Hey guys! I thought wine was a very beautiful color to work into a makeup look. It looks very nice in a smokey eye. I decided to mix Aphrodite from the BH Cosmetics Galaxy palette and the darkest purple in the New York Color IndividualEyes in the Pink Sunset palette. I added just a tad bit of the darkest purple in the New York ColorRead Now
#atozchallenge 2016/V is for Vivid Burgundy
Hey guys! I realized that I haven’t really used my BH Cosmetics Galaxy palette as much as I want to lately. I decided to find a color that I can recreate using that palette, and I thought vivid burgundy was a great color. Although Aphrodite is a tad too metallic for vivd burgundy, it’s still a great match. I decided to do a simple allRead Now
#atozchallenge 2016//U is for Ube
Hey guys! Today’s color is soft and light. I totally didn’t think about the food when I choose. Ahem. I tried to lightly use the New York Color IndividualEyes palette in Pink Sunset to recreate the color Ube. Ube is a very light purple so I choose to lightly take the top darkest purple in the palette and mix it with a little bit ofRead Now
#atozchallenge 2016//T is for Tea Rose
Hey guys! I wanted to try a softer look for today. Tea Rose is the perfect color for a softer, gentler look. I mixed the blush from the Elizabeth Arden Deluxe Compact palette with a little bit of Heaven from the TooFaced Natural Eyes palette. It took a while for the blush to really mix with Heave, but once I got it going, I gotRead Now
#atozchallenge 2016//S is for Stormcloud
Hey guys! Sometimes I like to mix eyeshadows to create new colors. That’s what I did for today. Using the BH Cosmetics Galaxy Chic Palette, I finally made Stormcloud. Just take a little bit of Neptune and mix it with Electra. Depending on how much of each eyeshadow you mix, the color will come out lighter or darker. I suggest using a lot of ElectraRead Now
#atozchallenge 2016//R is for Raw Sienna
Hey guys! I like the name of “Raw Sienna” as a color. It’s a very rich, brown that’s perfect for natural looking makeup or accentuating facial features. I ended up finding a contour palette with the color that really gives me a more mature look. I will be definitely branching out into different makeup techniques and looks, but for now, I’ll stick to a littleRead Now
#atozchallenge 2016//Q is for…Nothing?
Hey guys! I tried to find a color that starts with the letter Q, but no matter how hard I looked, there was not a single color I can find. What a shame huh? So, I’ll leave you with of two my favorite YouTube videos of the moment. Some strong language included if you’re not into that sort of stuff. And a little bit ofRead Now
