FOTD: Cat Eyeliner & Glossy Plum Lips

Photos don't do this look justice! It was amazing up close. *SIGH* This is the look I wore to my bf's friends b-day. I was totally unsure what to look to do but I knew I need something simple with little touch ups.

The main products used was:

Eyes-

Maybelline Eye Studio™ Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Blackest Black

BarryM 3 N 1 Mascara

Lips-

Faceatelier Lip Glaze-Shiraz

I used my Eve Pearl 104- Eyeliner brush to draw that perfect cat eye flick! First starting at the edge then bringing it inwards.

FOTD using Barry M Cosmetics!

This is a simple look for my movie date to see Black Swan. Since I have a lot of Barry M goodies, I decided to test some of it out. Girls..everything I used was soo pigmented! Products like these just make you fall in love with makeup all over. Haha! I know it's weird but my "junkies" exactly what I mean.



Here is what I used:

•  Barry M Dazzle Dust in 44 (Bronze)
• Barry M Lip Lacquer Pencil Crayon 2 (Cherry Red)
• Barry M 3 N 1 Mascara

 I need to spotlight the Dazzle Dust & Lip Lacquer because there GORGEOUS. Please click the pictures to see these in HD.

I generally never touch a lipstick with sparkles because they look "gritty'...but the lacquers are smooth & glossy. I want every color!

As most of you can see from several Canadian Bloggers BarryM may be coming to Canada. So support the moment and Like this BarryM page!

FOTD: Chocolate Smokey Eyes featuring 28 Neutral Palette

I love brown smokey eyes because their definitely perfect for day and night. I always like to try out looks before I wear them out to an event. This gives me control to eliminate or re-introduce products to make it better :)

I use MUFE as a base because it was waterproof & smudge proof, Annabelle smudgeliner in Oh my Goth, Eve Pearl Blush Trio in dark & MUFE Smokey Lash mascara. This time I used my 28 neutral palette for most of the look.

This palette is definitely going to be one of my traveling palettes. It has a lot of colors that can be used for smokey, neutral & every day looks.

Do you like brown smokey eyes?

My Christmas look + Merry Christmas+ NY resolutions

It's Christmas :D 

Merry Christmas Spiced Beauty followers & readers!! I can't believe how quickly time flies.. I swear it was January yesterday ..geez. And New Years is just around the corner.. I know I say this all the time but 2011 WILL be better. I will make it better..less negativity and more optimism! I hope you all feel the same :)

Now on to the look. It's super simple but still pretty. If you need a tutorial, click here because I used Annabelle products to get the look. I definetly needed a low maintenance look because Christmas dinner is at our house and like 50 people will be here... that A LOT for a townhouse. So I know I will be helping out.. no time to reapply..lol

I am leaving Ontario to go to Montreal with my BF and 2 friends for New Years.  I have never done anything for NYE before so I'm nervous but excited! I'm sad I cant bring all my makeup but I will be posting my look for you all to see :) Enough of my banter..hahaha.

What was your Christmas look?

FOTD: Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Blue Eyes

I know I'm not a blue eyed babe but I love the colors in Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips for Blue Eyes palettes. I find myself using this palette far more than any of the other Physicians Formula eye palettes. To really make brown eyes pop, dark blues work the best in my opinion. Check out the swatches of the blue & gold on my skin. Pure love <3

Instead of using the blue on my upper lid, I opted for it on my lower lid as a liner!

Excuse my unamused look on my face..LOL

Eyes:

Blend of Golds & Bronze in the palette.

Mascara:

Annabelle Volumelash.com

Liner:
Eve Pearl Smudgeproof  Liquid Liner

Lips:

Annabelle Volume Lip Plumping Gloss in Cherryoke

Here is a close up of the eye.  As you can see below my bangs are growing out quickly! They were always pretty long but now you can hardly see my makeup..all my hard work!! LOL

I'm going to get them cut to above my lashes this week. So I'll have a pic update to show you soon :)


Have you tried any of these palettes? If so, what do you think of them?

FOTD: No Make up Make up look

As promised here are some  pictures with my bangs and FOTD. One of the first looks I learned in school was in "no make up make up look". I swear in class I always thought I would never use it.. but visit your favorite store and you will see a least one poster with a fresh faced model. My teacher told me that if you can prefect this look, you can build a whole career on it!

My essential no make up look included:
***You can also wear foundation if you want a flawless base, I chose not too"

Concealer- Cinema Secrets palette in foundation palette 11(Cover those under eye circles!)
Mascara- 2 coats of Cargo triple action
Brows- Brow Gel
Blush- Optional but it gives a warm glow. I used MUFE (not shown)
Lips- Annabelle espresso lipliner & MAC stealing kisses lipglass

 This lipglass is my favorite! Perfect for my No Make up Make up look :)

 I can also part the hair in the middle for a cute look... I look 17 in this pic LOL

How do you feel about the No Make up Make up look?
