Face of the day!

Hi everyone! I wanted to share with you a quick face of the day! I went with purples and browns on my eyes today because I really wanted my green eyes to POP! I think it turned out quite nice! For such a natural look, though, I sure did use a lot of products! My skin has been breaking out a ton this week. I can't figure out what is causing it. I haven't tried any new face products recently. Maybe it's just the weather or hormones or something. Anyway, here we go! Ignore my hair in the photos. It has a mind of it's own today, and I just let it do it's natural thing!

Quick Face of the Night

I apologize for the somewhat repetitive posts lately. I guess my creativity has been a little weak. I promise there are some different types of posts coming soon. In the meantime, hopefully the repetitive posts don't bother you too much!

tonight I went to my cousin's house to watch Glee and hang out. I did a really quick makeup look, so I thought I'd share it. I don't get out much, so when I do, It's always an event for me. haha.




Super simple look. Just one eyeshadow! I haven't done a one shadow look in forever! But I like the finished product!

Falling for Fall: Face/outfit/nail of the day

Just last week I was going on about how summer isn't over and how I am not ready for fall. then I woke up this morning walked outside and it was 55 degrees. A preview of Autumn, certainly! I had forgotten how much I love fall. It's my favorite season. And while I think this year is going by plenty fast without wishing for fall to arrive sooner, I do adore the cooler weather we are having today. And, I love being able to pull out some warmer clothes and rock a more fall-toned makeup look!

So that wraps it up! I would be more than happy to go into more details about any of the products above, or if you would like to see a tutorial on the makeup look! I was quite fond of the way it turned out. Also, please excuse the messy nail photos. Dark colors are much less forgiving than the summer colors I have been reaching for lately, and I didn't clean up the edges before taking these photos! Leave me a comment below if you have any questions, request or suggestions! I hope you enjoyed this post.
