After work I’ll be heading to the The Fox Theater for the Santigold concert, so I wanted to go for a slightly more dramatic look that’s wearable enough for work but dark enough for a nigh-time show.

I used my Spun Sugar palette by Too Faced to create a dark brown smokey eye and used lots of L’Oreal Voluminous Mascara to create the illusion of fake lashes since I didn’t feel like wearing any today. As for my lips, I lined and filled my lips in with NYX lipliner in Burgundy, then outlined that with Wet n’ Wild pencil eyeliner in Black to darken it up a bit. I topped that off with L’Oreal Infallible Lipstick in Persistent Plum and added just a touch of Stila Lipglaze in Raisin to the center of my bottom lip for shine. After that I just dusted my cheeks with a little bronzer and that’s it!

Hope you guys like the look! Now, off to the concert I go! If you’re interested to see how it went, I’ll be tweeting from the venue so follow me if you haven’t already,

Love ya!

I did a shimmery smokey eye look with my Too Faced Natural at Night Palette a few months ago and one of my Twitter followers suggested I do a more toned down version. I tried it out and loved it so much it’s become my go-to routine when I need to get ready in a hurry. That’s why this look is perfect for back-to-school. It’s light, simple and doesn’t take much time to apply.

I love the eye makeup because it only takes three shadows to create and the light shimmer makes the eyes look wider and more awake.

I’ve been having so much fun playing with this palette I didn’t even know which look to start with. I decided on this one since I’ve been posting a lot of neutrals lately, plus I really love girly colors. I have to say this turned out better than expected; using hot pink as a base really made all the difference in bringing these colors to life.

Those of you who have been following my blog for a while may remember the good old days when I posted a Sephora Haul every Wednesday because I still lived at home and could afford to do so. Unfortunately being an adult and paying things like rent and bills have interfered with my weekly shopping, but since my birthday just passed I got a bunch of gift-cards to my favorite place on earth!

I ordered this online just a few days ago, so I was really surprised to find this box waiting for me when I got to work. And just in time for Wednesday haul post!

The second I opened all the Sephora gift-cards my friends got me, I knew exactly what I was gonna get: the Too Faced Return of Sexy Palette. Once that was safely in my cart where it belonged, I had some money left over so I picked up a few nail glitters since I know I’ll use them as well as a Sephora Nano Liner in Brilliant Berries because it’s one of my favorite lipliners for summer.

These are the Sephora Nail Glitters by OPI. They were on clearance for only $3 each so I got three colors: Pink, Pewter and Gold. The hues are all gorgeous, except the gold color is more of a copper. I’m not too disappointed though since it’s gonna make for a gorgeous Fall color.

I’m not gonna talk about this palette too much in this post since I plan on doing a review this weekend, but I will say it was love at first site. The colors are goooooorgeous, shimmery and richly pigmented. The palette also came with a waterproof eyeliner and a sample of Too Faced Shadow Insurance – both of which I’ve been dying to try so I’m pretty excited.

Now that I’ve shown off my goodies, off I go to play with my new makeup until I doze off into dreamland. Be on the lookout for a full review/tutorial on the palette though, I’m filming it on Saturday so expect to see it posted here by Sunday!

Since I got this palette I’ve been mixing, matching and coming up with all sorts of lovely, natural looks. This is the first of what i’m sure will turn out to be many tutorials using this amazing product. It’s hands down the best palette I’ve gotten in a long while – check out the tutorial below to see why!
