various shadows I’ve been a little busy lately, but maybe I have been avoiding this makeup post as well. I tend to spend the most amount of time on my eyes during my makeup routine and I tend to be quite disappointed with the results of my eyes. I really like my eye color, it is kind of a green/blue that almost appears to change color in response to what I am wearing. They are actually quite pretty. So then…
Blush has never been one of my favorite things. I used to not use it at all. My problem with blush is that many people who use it, over use it. This gave me the wrong impression of blush. I kind of always thought that if you used it at all, it would leave you looking all rosy cheeked, which I personally think looks quite unnatural. I also really don’t like the swath of red swiped across many peoples cheeks.…
Possibly the most difficult part of my own makeup routine to do well is the foundation. I am much better at it now than I ever used to be. I think much of it has to do with the quality of the makeup I currently use as well as the instruction I have received and the practice I have done. Initially I purchased my foundation at a local convenience store. I probably purchased about 10 different types and colors of…
This is the pile of makeup once I emptied it from my makeup case. I don’t happen to have a picture of said makeup case, but I will let you know that it is large. Very large.

I don’t like like knowing that I have a particular eye liner for instance, and then having to scrounge through all of my items searching desperately for it.…
Tank – Loft White Top – Guess Belt – I forget Skirt – Guess Shoes – Mossimo Tank – Loft White Top – Guess Skirt – Guess Shoes – Mossimo These are two of my outfits from July 2nd. I have been trying something new for some outfit pictures; I have been changing one piece of my outfit. This has been interesting in pushing me to see different ways of being able to wear my items. I think both outfits…
Eye Shadow – Lancome I recently got an ipad. It is the new ipad3 and I have been pleasantly surprised. I kind of had to get it for a work related project, otherwise I would not have gotten it. I am really a PC/Windows person and have been a die-hard anti-Mac person, but I will have to admit the truth – I really like my iPad. One of the things I like about the iPad is the camera on it.…
When I do my makeup I look absolutely nothing like the woman in the picture above. (Edit – actually it is my picture, I have gone back and changed my posts to only include my own pictures, or pictures which I have permission to use them, just FYI.) Though at times in my life that is what I thought it should look like when you apply mkeup. I’m not really sure why I thought that. I suppose it is what…
