bek I've got a question...what is a good nude lipstick for us porcelain girls?
my favorite natural my-lips-only-better lipstick is Urban Decay in Naked.
I looked at the allure beauty awards or whatever a while ago and wrote down their choice for nude lipstick but I cna't find the paper! I'll go look on the website and try to find it...
found it...it's L'oreal colour rich lipstick in fairest nude.
here's the link, it's a great article: http://www.allure.com/beauty/bestof/2010/1...ty_lips#slide=3
and the master list: http://www.allure.com/beauty/bestof/lips
Heyyyy 🙂so here is me before
i love this look on you =D do ppl ask you if you're going out to somewhere special when you wear red lips? i HATE when ppl do that to me. every time i wear them, someone asks ooo who are you trying to impress? it's like, really i can't wear red lips for myself ?!? lol
you have extremely pretty eyes btw! haven't got to watch your eyeshadow video yet, but i will soon. hehe.
Thank you!! :] I'm glad you like it. Hahahah occasionally. I usually just give them my patented impatience/death stare (depending on how annoying the comment was)... and they kind of get it. But most people aren't as aggressive as me.. so maybe that won't work. Lol. Be a smart ass back. The more you wear it the less they will notice anyway. Aww thank you so much! Haha so sweet. Well they aren't the best videos yet but it's helpful I think/hope 🙂
lmao. the death stare? i just think ppl can be a little too presumptuous n think you're dressing up to impress someone or them. it's like .. no. don't get it twisted. there are times it's nice to dress up for someone, but i think those times should be limited.
and yes, they are helpful =D i hope you continue to do them. you have great tips. i was cracking up when i saw your video with slow motion playing in the background. i had a friend that used to love that song.
Yay, I'm so glad you're going to do videos now! Your pictures are lovely. You'll definitely have to come down to SoCal and go with me to Sephora. I've got to spend my gift cards, hehe. Btw, have you tried MUFE Full Cover concealer? I've been really wanting to try that one out, and have heard it's one of the best for covering blemishes/red marks.Here's a pic of my peepers, lol. I love using eye shadows for liner.
Aw thank you Michellica! 🙂
LOL I'd be more than happy to!! That would be a good time for sure. I actually haven't tried it, but I know a lot of people seem to like it! It's probably a good one to try. Your eyes look gawgggeous!
My pleasure :). I know right?! We would probably spend way too much though, haha. And thanks, dear. You have gorgeous eyes yourself.
So I think the MUFE concealer may have broken me out in a few small whiteheads. How do you know when a certain cosmetic is responsible?
Hahaha seriously. I would have to save up for sure. Thank you! Hmmm. I'm not really sure. But unless you've changed anything else recently you can probably count on it being the culprit. Unless you've been staying up late not getting any sleep or something like that. For me it's usually a gut feeling. Very scientific, I know!!!

Wow thanks! Awesome!
I have to go look at all my lip stuff so I can have the exact names! I know I have some good ones 🙂

Haha seriously, try it- it works a lot of the time. While you are staring at them they start thinking about why they even asked the question in the first place. Heh. It is presumptuous, very high school. People in high school would freak out about red lipstick or anything outside of a 2 inch box lol. It's a holdover.
hahahaha it's a good ol oldie! 😉 Thank you.... a lot 🙂 I will continue.. Just have to jump back on the wagon. Hard and busy weekend! I think I should do a night out look next, what do you think?
My favorite nudes!
Some of these are a little pinky, because I am fair and I cannot do straight beige- it looks hideous on me. From left to right:
1. Bare Escentuals Buxom Lip gloss in Sugar
2. Stila Pearl Shimmer Gloss in Ocean Currant
3. Lorac Couture Shine Liquid Lipstick in Glam
4. Smashbox Photo Finish Lipstick in Flawless
5. Maybelline Lipstick (don't know what kind) in Shell (200)

i completely agree. it's so true about the 2 inch box thing. hahaha about the slow motion song. i do prefer a lot of oldie rap songs over the new ones.
n yeah a night look! def! i love those. would wear them during the day if it didn't look so harsh. i saw this GORGEOUS turquoise tutorial done by sccastaneda for a night out. i'm going to be attempting that, but it's hard since my eyes are small. lol

Aww, darn. I have that gut feeling that you speak of, lol. But that was like the best rated concealer for acne/redness on makeupalley. Grrrrr, back to the drawing board.
@ indayden:
Hahaha try it anyway, I'm sure you can make it work! Turquoise... I wear it like 2x a year. I feel like since I have blue eyes it looks silly. What do you think? Yeah. I like to wear them during the day sometimes but I've learned that it can feel a little overdone haha so now I usually go moderate if I am feeling the drama.
@ Michellica:
:/ waaah!! You could try it on one small specific area of your face for a few days and see if you break out? If not... you might reconsider? Test it a bit? That sucks though.
i think it would depend on how much of the turquoise you're using. i think almost any color could work combined with a black smokey eye, as long as it's blended. n haha yeah sometimes it's fun to wear makeup that compliments your mood, esp if you're feeling dramatic : ) n i'm gonna try turquoise soon. i wanna wear some turquoise along with it, so i'll see how it goes. what's one of your fave moderate looks to wear during the day?
oooh bek those lipsticks look lovely! I'm going to target soon so I will check out the maybelline one. and I took ur advice for my dance makeup, I did gold shadow with brown on the lid with winged black eyeliner and a little pink lipstick. it looked great! I'll try to post a pic here...I'm the second from the left. sorry it's so small but you can get an idea of my makeup!

Okay I must confess I don't really know how to do a black smoky eye. I don't know if it's because I am so pale... or I am not using the right products? How DO you do it? Lol! One of my favorite looks.. hmmm... 🙂 probably a candy red or pink lip with neutral shimmery eye shadow and black liner! And then you can do focus on the eyes... I like silver/black/grey with a pale pink gloss sometimes. So many choices! Haha

🙂 Yeah the Maybelline one is niiice! I also love Stila lip glaze in Kitten for more of a goldish nude rather than pinkish. You look soooooooo pretty! It looks great!! You look beauteous 😀
@rockingredhead - you looked super pretty! i esp like your dress. purple is one of the best colors ever imo. hehe = ) it goes so nice with your skin tone.
@bek - i like pink lips too! = ) n shimmery eye shadows. you have me wanting the stila kitten gloss, now. lol -- i will not give into temptation. for now. hehe.
black smokey eyes can be hard at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. what i like most about it is that you can tone it down, or make it more dramatic by adding more black shadow to your lid.
the way i do it is 1st i use a black base. i should prob tell you what video helped me bc i'm not good at explaining things. lol
makeupsquare on youtube has a vid called soft smokey celebrity look that i think flatters her really well. you could apply less shadow on your lid if you want a more toned down look. i believe she uses a jumbo eye pencil, but i like to use a gel liner bc it lasts longer on me.

Haha .. one day you will get it! Notchet. 🙂
Okay I am totally looking that up because I would be interested to see how it looks on me. I'm scared hahaha! Thanks for the tips! 🙂
thank you guys! 😀 I actually really loved doing the more natural look instead of smokey eyes or a red lip.Does anyone know if Covergirl does animal testing? I've heard they don't but they're not on the Leaping Bunny website or anything.
Aww good! It kind of lets you shine a little more sometimes.
Your link isn't opening for me but that sucks 🙁 Guess I won't be buying from them again. The only thing I really like is that foundation.I think those shoes are super cute!! They're a great neutral high heel.
btw u look absolutely stunning in your new profile picture!!!! 🙂
Oh sorry I don't know why! That does suck :/ But at least they don't have your favorite products ever haha.
Yayyy haha I'm not crazy! Thank you very much!! 😀
What do you guys think of these? My mom and stepdad hate them, my dad and I like them lol!
I like them because they are:
-comfy
-neutral and therefore versatile
-hella discounted (good brand)
-sexy
Are they hideous in your opinion?
I have those shoes! Same color too, lol 😀 They're awesome, cute enough for dress or jeans. I also have another pair that aren't the same brand, but are the same build. They're navy blue, which is also pretty versatile compared to other colors.
I'm trying to cut back on my makeup. Once I have very little or no makeup I'm going to go out and buy all natural/organic/mineral/whatever and just restock. It was so hard resisting all these beautiful shimmery mineral lip balms at the natural grocery store today!! MyChelle has all these adorable little eye shimmers/lip balms. They're in like the exact same package as the Burts Bees lip shimmers but are filled with concealers, eye shimmers, or tinted lip balms. I waaaaant!

Hahaha! How funny. I like them, my mom and stepdad think they are slutty but I don't think so. Not if you pair it with the right outfits. They are old fashioned anyway! ooooooh, I would loooo-ve them in navy blue. Nice!
