pin up, make up

Firecracker red lips, luxurious eye shadow, winged eyeliner, defined eyebrows pin up girl are so inspirational with their makeup! So many people have been influenced by their style, hair, makeup and much more!

To start off this look I used a mouse foundation, with a very very light bronzer (its practically a foundation) with minimal shimmer to keep the matte look. Take a matte blush and apply it to the apples of your cheeks.

For the eyes I used a primer on my lid then covered my whole lid with a beige eyeshadow. On top of the beige I applied an off white shadow. Going from the outer corner in I took a dark pewter color and applied it to the crease of the eye lid. Finish off with winged liquid eyeliner and your favorite mascara.

Polish off the look with a matte red lipstick!! Don't forget to get the access off of your lips! I do this by quickly closing my mouth on a napkin! It will keep you from smearing, and getting lipstick on your teeth!! ;)












I hope you give this a try!! Its such a cute look!! Check in soon!! xo

fringe your old tshirts this summer!!

Try this edgy look this summer! Im in love with it. It reminds me of the 70's and 90's grunge looks, and its simple to create!!

Find an old plain t shirt to cut up!! Nothing special about this shirt, just an old shirt from work so its perfect!! plus.... I think its ugly.... hahah

Decide where you are going to cut up to! On my t shirt I'm going to cut where I am pointing!! You can do yours lower or higher it is all up to you!!

I'm keeping the front of the shirt on the back to get the cutting done faster! Also I'm cutting the strips about the width of my thumb. Keep in mind you will stretch these out and they will get thinner! Cut yours to you liking.

Start in the middle and finish one side and then the other. Stretch your fringe out, knot the bottom, and then cut the hem off the bottom (under the knot).

You can do WHATEVER you want to the top!! Leave it the way it is, shorten the sleeves,  swoop neck with sleeves, or do a tank top with a swoop neck, like I did!  It's all up to you!!! :)

Thanks for reading I hope you try this out!! :) Check in soon for more fun posts!! comments, questions, requests are always welcome below!!

Bad Girl Blues

Im sure most of you have heard the song that inspired this post today. "Bad" by the cab, has been stuck in my head 24/7!! So I came up with this cute, club look. Get a little daring with your makeup!! ;)

 

Step one of this look, is to apply your foundation, and whatever else you use to your face as usual! Pick up a light brown shadow on your eye shadow brush and apply it all over the eyelid. Then add a dark grey to the crease and outer corner of your eye! :)

Next, I used war paints blue liquid eyeliner, same brand as the green eyeliner from my st. patty's day post. I did a cat eye but with a thicker line then i took the black and did a normal sized cat eye in the center of the blue!

TTAAAAADDAAA!! :D


Its that simple!!

St.Patty's Day!

Since I am of Irish heritage, I knew that I had to post something for you guys!! As you all may know I typically stick to green or natural colors on my eyes, but today I tried something a little different!!

So I pretty much just took my normal green eye shadow look (as seen on my http://hairdare.blogspot.com/2012/03/green-eyed-goddess.html post) After I finished that I used this product: 

This is liquid eyeliner by Warpaint beauty, in the color T-Rex. You can find this product online or in stores at hot topic. This stuff is pretty easy to use if you can use other liquid liners then you can use this! Its pretty vibrant even with the first swipe but I used a second thin layer on top. 

This is my end result! :) Vibrant, festive and fun. Not my typical style but I thought it was super cute!! 














Happy St. Patrick's Day!! Thanks for reading!! leave me some comments below! ;) xo

Green eyed goddess!!

Exotic green eyes, green eyes are the least common natural eye color. Only 1.2%  of the worlds population has green eyes. Here are 2 eye shadow techniques for all of you out there with green eyes!!

 The first technique is complimenting your eyes with a complimentary color! Greens complimentary color is red. So I used a light bronze gold, and a lovely coral color. This is more of a natural, less dramatic look to make your eyes pop!!

To get this look, take that bronze color and apply it all over your lid. Next Use a coral color and apply that to the outer half of the eyelid. That's really all for this look!! :)

The next look I did, was just enhancing your eye color with a monochromatic look! This as you know is (in my opinion) the best way to make your eyes pop! This is definitely a dramatic look.

For this eye shadow look I applied a gold all over the eyelid. I took a pale green and added this to the outer 3/4 of the eyelid. To finish it off i added a dark emerald green to the outer corner and crease!











I hope you guys try this out!! I personally have a  mix between green and blue eyes, so I use the blue and the green techniques! You can mix and match too!! Let me know what you guys think and if you try them out!! Question, comments, requests, and pictures in the comment box bellow!! :) Thanks for reading!!
