Jem!

I dressed up as Jem from Jem and the Holograms for Halloween.  I used Sugarpill's dollypop eyeshadow.  I know the wig isn't really right, but it's the best I have.

Some more looks

Here are some looks I've done over the last few months.  I have all the products recorded, but won't bother to list them unless someone asks.  My eyebrows were shaved in some of these pictures, so that's how I did the pink and purple eyebrows.

inspired by Alex Box

The title pretty much says it all.  I suspect a lot of her work is done with an air brush, which I unfortunately don't have.  Anyway, here is my pressed powder attempt.  I mostly used Bulletproof and Poison Plum by Sugarpill, and the 6 pan blush and contouring palette from eBay.  I also used some colors from the 88 shimmer palette and some elf eyeliner to highlight.  The lips are some pencils and gold gloss from NYX.

Urban Decay - Beauty in a Box

I got this kit for Christmas, and followed the instructions to create this look:


This is probably not a look I'd come up with on my own, but it's not bad.  I did this back in January, so I don't remember much about using the kit.  As I recall, it was pretty straight forward to use, and I didn't have problems with any of the products.

Recent looks

These are actually from a few months ago, but I just got around to sorting through the pictures I took.


This is supposed to be an Eye of Horus or Eye of Ra.  I think I might want to try it again sometime though.  I don't really like how I positioned the tails.


If anyone wants to know what products I used, just ask.  I think these looks could be done with pretty much anything, so I haven't bothered to write up what I used.

Wet'n'Wild I Got Good Jeans

Here is a look I did using Wet'n'Wild's I Got Good Jeans trio:


I used it pretty much as directed.  I used the brow highlight color as an inner eye highlight as well.  I also used elf's black cream liner and MUFE mascara.  I think the lip color is some mixture of OCC lip tars.  I have four of these trios, and this is by far my favorite.  It was much more pigmented and easier to apply than Cool as a Cucumber and I'm Feeling Retro (which I've also tried and and will post photos of soon).
