Moi Minerals Vault - It's a Spring Fling Thing - Greens & Yellow Tutorial

Alright Old Man Winter. It's time for you to leave. Get out. Go away.
It's time for daffodils and little pretty crocus flowers to start sprouting up from the ground, and as long as you're around... It won't happen. So this is your official Notice of Eviction. Leave!


Ok now that I'm done with my mini rant there, I've got a new look to share with everyone! I've been itching to do a tutorial, but with my back being the way it's been lately... It just didn't happen. Until tonight.

So I went through my stash, and decided I was going to haul on out some pretty spring colors. I posed the question on my Facebook Page the other day what you'd like to see as far as tutorials/color combinations and your answers were pretty much: Pastels. Spring. Fun.
I think I managed just fine... Eh?

Stay tuned, the tutorial is right after the break...






On my eyes:
MMC Primer
White Shimmery Creme Shadow (unknown brand- worn off!)
Raze
A beautiful shimmery yellow with gold flecks. If you could bottle sunshine, this is the color you'd get.
Lemongrass
A shimmering light green with green twinkle sparks.
Sage Rage
A muted sage green, a half matte color. It has sparkle, just not as much as the others. Lovely indeed!
Shimmers & Pearls
Bottle a pretty white sparkling sheer shadow, and that's what you have here.
Amethyst Lights
A rich jewel toned shimmering purple I applied over the black eyeliner I wore.
Wet 'N Wild ColorIcon Kohl Eyeliner Pencil in Black
WNW MegaEyes Black Gel Eyeliner
WNW MegaPlump Mascara

Cheeks have Physicians Formula Highlighting Blush in Vintage Rose.
e.l.f. Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Ruby Slipper.
Foundation is Physicians Formula: Organics Mineral Foundation in Fair Translucent

So what do you think? I hope Spring comes along soon....

Moi Minerals Vault - Glassy Lady : Quick Makeup for Chicks Who Wear Glasses

 I admit it... Finally! I wear them!
I know I don't often wear them, but here you see me in all my square-framed glory. And I have to admit- I kinda love my glasses! I don't wear them often because I'm not in class and no longer need to see a blackboard, I don't really drive yet, and usually what I need is on my lap... Aka, the computer.

This has been a request for some time in order to do this look. It can be difficult to find a happy-medium when putting eye makeup on and having to wear lenses. This one is a toned town, more natural look to start it off easy. I look back on some photos of me in glasses, and let me tell you... You can tell I didn't care that my eyeliner was wayyy too dark and I looked like a raccoon. Whoops! The point of doing makeup behind lenses is to accentuate and draw attention to the eyelids (not the glasses!) and the last thing we want to do is make it appear like we have small, beady eyes.



It's as easy as 1-2-3! Watch the tutorial above to see exactly how I did it!


On my face:
Stila Petal Infusions Moisturizing Cream
e.l.f. Concealer & Highlighter
Physicians Formula: Organics Mineral Foundation

On my eyes:
Moi Minerals Cosmetics Eye Shadows in:
Angel Eyes, Raze & Sage Rage
Valentine was used as blush & mixed with balm on my lips

Wet 'N Wild ColorIcon Black and White Kohl Eyeliner
WnW MegaEyes Gel Eyeliner in Black
WnW MegaPlump Mascara

Basically, Angel Eyes is applied to the entire eye area with a "C" brush from e.l.f.- from lid to brow bone and blended in lightly. Swipe a little bit along your bottom lash line to highlight your eyes.

Raze is applied with a contoured eye shadow brush to the outer half of the lids, and with whatever is left on the brush, it's applied to the outer third-to-half of the lower lid.

Sage Rage is picked up on an e.l.f. Crease Brush and applied to the crease area only, and outer "V" of the eye. Using an e.l.f. Blending Brush, lightly blend out the green upwards toward the brow bone. This will feather the color to be very subtle, but still provides definition to the eyes. Taking a flat eyeliner brush, pick a little of Sage Rage up and apply it to the bottom three-quarters of the lashline.

Tightline your upper lid with black kohl liner (line underneath your lashes, it's your upper waterline), line your bottom waterline in white kohl eyeliner. Grabbing the straight brush again, pick up a little of Sage Rage and apply it over the white liner- carefully! Don't poke your eye!

Next, grab an angled eyeliner brush and gel eyeliner. Working the color into your lashes only, and starting mid lid, lightly line your eyes. The closer you stay to your lashes, the more natural this will look. By working the color into your lashes, it will fill them in and make them appear darker and fuller. I picked up Sage Rage with a flat eyeliner brush, and used it to both set the gel liner and create an iridescent color. It's quite beautiful- it doesn't lighten the black liner completely- it still keeps it's depth- but it softens the color just enough and creates a pretty iridescent and custom liner! Curl, apply mascara, and go!

And there you have it! Quick & Easy!
Of course, this doesn't have to be worn by only gals who wear glasses!

Do you wear them??

Get The Look - Moi Minerals "Dramatic Red & Gold"

Hell-ooooooooooo gaw-jus!
Rich jewel tones on your eyes? Yes! Even red?! Absolutely!!! Grab your favorite pair of black pumps and vamp it up girls!
While hard to believe, you can wear red on your eyes without looking like you're having an allergy attack or a pink eye infection. The trick is to match it with complimentary colors, and blend well! And never- ever ever ever- put it on your waterline. That will definitely make you look sick! Pick a color that will compliment your skin tone- you don't want a red that resembles irritated skin. Anyways... Onwards and upwards!

The majority of the cosmetics used in this tutorial are from Moi Minerals Cosmetics, and also from her Etsy shop!! There's a light taupe and a pretty gold color I've used from the e.l.f. Limited Edition Natural Palette. Other cosmetics include Wet 'N Wild kohl eyeliner, gel eyeliner, and MegaPlump mascara.

I had already done my foundation- which consists of Physicians Formula Organics: Mineral Foundation in Translucent Fair. I've also used e.l.f. Concealer & Highlighter under my eyes, and over blemishes. The highlighter went on the bridge of my nose, the top of my cheekbones, and the "V" above where my nose is. I finished off with e.l.f. High Definition Powder.

What's on my eyes for colors from Moi Minerals:
Rockstar Red (medium)
Crazy Bitch (dark shimmery; eyeliner)
Shimmers & Pearls
Galaxy (over eyeliner to set)
The Natural Palette colors from e.l.f. I've used were:
Shimmery Gold in the top row, middle pan.
Light Taupe in bottom row, far left pan.

Watch the video below to see how to create this look!





So there you have it... Sexy, sultry eyes using red and gold!! As I said- you don't have to wing the shadow out as far as I did for this look. You can bring the red slightly above your crease and right to the end of your eye for a more subdued look. Wing the shadow out a touch, and blend with the gold color at the edges- and you still have a pretty eye look!

What do you think? Is this something you'd rock on out to, or subdue a bit?

Get The Look - Peacock Inspired Eyes I

Updated 03/05/2011 & 03/06/2011


This is strictly my own personal opinion about the matter. All material uncovered was done through a public google internet search with a few different keyword entries.

Due to information uncovered and revealed about this company, I cannot in good conscience or good faith recommend anyone support this reportedly handmade, organic small business. If information had been disclosed prior to discovery by the shop owner herself, I would have no problem with continuing to purchase. Regretfully, the scope of the lie and how many different people it could have potentially affected and hurt leaves me no other choice than to say this is not an honest company to do business with.

It's been a long few weeks... And I know you gals have been super-patient waiting for this vid to arrive... And I appreciate you sticking around waiting for it!

This is the first in a peacock inspired series- there are literally so many different ways these colors can be worn, combined and accented that I'll put together a bunch for you! Next up you're likely to see another sports team... I gotta get crackin on those babies!

I've always been fascinated by birds with iridescent feathers, and unique patterns. These include (strangely enough) Blue Jays, Mallard Ducks, Peacocks, Pheasants and many other birds. Up here, when I was little, a guy a town over used to keep the birds in pens in his yard. People would stop and park on the side of the road- and the birds, true to their character, would usually be persuaded to show their colors. Not by intimidation of course- but they loved the attention they would get. I think the walnuts helped too... Ha ha ha! I remember stopping with my Grandfather too, many times. Oh- it's the good memories!







Without any further ado, I give you Peacock Eyes!

On My Face:
Nivea Soft Moisturizing Cream
e.l.f. Complexion Perfection
Physicians Formula Organics: Mineral Foundation in Translucent Fair
e.l.f. High Definition finishing powder

On My Eyes:

Orglamix Cosmetics in order of application:
Magnetism Eye-Primer (topped with a pat of the high definition powder)
Snow (on browbone)
Acai Berry on lid only
Lavande applied over AB, and blended
Celadon applied above the crease and blended into Snow, pulled down to crease. Touch more applied
Aegean applied to crease, blended well with Celadon, lightly blended with purples, and more applied
Solar applied to inner corner of eye, blended lightly with purples and into Aegean
Solar applied to inner 1/3 of bottom lashline
Lavande applied to outer 1/3 of bottom lashline
Celadon applied to middle of bottom lashline, blended into other two colors lightly

Wet 'N Wild Black Kohl Eyeliner applied to upper and lower waterlines
Aegean applied to bottom lashline with straight eyeliner brush
Wet 'N Wild Gel Eyeliner in black applied to upper lashline
Curl eyelashes, and I applied Wet 'N Wild MegaPlump mascara in 2x coats

Cheeks are finished by sweeping Orglamix's Mineral Blush in Ginger across the hollows of my cheeks and upper cheekbones. Lips have e.l.f's Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Candlelight applied.

Done!

What do you think?
This look is quite toned down due to the lighting- it's quite a bit more intense in person than pictures show! The glitters that catch in the sunlight are gorgeous- so please, don't be mislead by the pictures!

You're probably making the same WTF face I did when I first heard the term. I admit- I started giggling, I had no clue what it meant.... But to me, it sounds dirty. Like one of those words you utter amongst your girlfriends group and you all laugh in a conspiratorial way which garners strange looks from anyone within hearing distance.





Glamping. Hahahaha...
Ok seriously- I found a few seriously side-splitting definitions of this new term thanks to Urban Dictionary:



1.) Shorthand for glamorous camping; luxury camping:
I ain't sleepin' in no tent! For real, I'm goin' glamping!
2.) Glamorous camping. Satisfying your craving for the outdoors and your penchant for a good meal, nice glass of wine, and a comfortable bed.
No stinky sleeping bags on the hard ground, and freeze-dried food for me. If it's not a Glamping trip, count me out.
And my personal favorite:
3.) Glamorous camping; when rich bitches can pay someone to do all the work for them
"Oh Heathcliffe dear, I'm ever so glad we are glamping this weekend. By the way, is the butler done catching our trout?"

Um... Seriously?!?! I'm not able to camp right this second because a) it's COLD here in New England and b) bad back issues prevent me from having any sort of real fun right now.... But I'm all for throwing a tent into the back of my SUV, packing one cooler full of beer, another full of soda and alcohol, another full of beer, an extra one full of ice, another cooler with extra beer, an air mattress, maybe a couple fishin' poles and bait, and a shotgun in case a pesky bear, coyote or raccoon ventures into camp. (Of course, I've never been camping where a gun is used- it just helps to sleep next to one. Bear claws can go right through nylon...) I think that's it as far as packing. Oh wait.... I feel like I'm forgetting something...


I never thought the minimal makeup I dragged along with me would be considered a glamorous trait. Whatever- it's quick, easy, and I'm done in less than 5 minutes. (The video, again, is long because I blab!) The great perk of using only mineral makeup (which I didn't do concerning the concealer and tinted moisturizer- but they're light enough they won't clog my pores or make me break out) is that the minerals won't force your skin to react horribly and sneaking one mother Vesuvius on your chin that's going to erupt... After forming miraculously overnight somehow. Well, more than likely, if you're like me... It was during the early early morning sleep.... Because drinking and hanging out goes hand in hand with staying up late- very late.... Again, not an activity I could enjoy this past summer. Next one, I plan to make it all up! So if any of you chicks wanna plan a Glamping trip with me, leave a comment below! LOL
Yours truly, making a really weird face.

Mineral makeup tends to stay where it's put. Foundation does need to be redone, but all in all, eye makeup typically stays put. Sweet and simple looks- all you need to do is a touch up!
Face Ingredients:
e.l.f. Tinted Moisturizer
(I forgot color, I'll add after)
e.l.f. Concealer
PF: Organics Mineral Foundation in Translucent Light

Espresso & Champagne Toast

The Eyes Have It:
100% Mineral Eye Products
Orglamix Cosmetics:
Magnetism Eye Primer
Champagne Toast
Espresso
Ginger Blush
WNW Black Kohl Eyeliner
WNW MegaLength Mascara


Stay sexy, stay as sweet as you can... And remember- the wild outdoors isn't nearly as scary as you think! Camping is fun!!!!

Oh yeah.... I remembered what I felt I was forgetting. You have to pack food too!! Sustenance is key! Just remember to lock up all your food in the vehicles before going to bed. The wild animals will try and get it if you leave it out.

Giggles and laughs tonight to you all!

Yesterday's look was a bit on the dramatic side... Ok, ok... More like definitely dramatic. What can I say?! I love drawing attention to my eyes, and I love sparkles. So it kind of makes sense that I'd want to do a dark look on my eyes, right?! Right!


It's gothic with a twist. I kept my lips fairly nude. But my eyes... Wowza! The tutorial is below for you to check out!







For me, having bold eyes is fun. It's a way for me to express my feelings for the day- whether it be fun, silly, quirky, or sullen. Yes- we all have gray days. Yesterday it was Danger for some reason. I don't know why... I just felt dark, full of emotion... And craving glitter. A poll on my Facebook Page revealed the color I would be using: Purple.


What's on my face:

Nivea Moisturizing Cream

e.l.f. Complexion Perfection
(under eyes, around nose, chin)

e.l.f. Concealer & Highlighter Wands
(cover blemishes, highlight nose & temples)

The Eyes Have It with Orglamix Mineral Cosmetics:

Magnetism
Eye Primer

Fig

Grape Hyacinth

Pink Twinkle Effects

WNW Gel Eyeliner in Black

Fantasy Makers (WNW) Silver Glitter Eyeliner

WNW MegaLength Mascara in Black

Cheeks have Baie Rose dusted on them (Orglamix)

Lips have e.l.f.'s Minty Lip Gloss in New York City mixed with Baie Rose.


There's the look! While this isn't quite a look for the faint of heart, if you're looking for a change- this definitely fits the bill! It's fun, it's glittery and sparkly, and you'll get lots of compliments for certain!


Thanks for stopping by as always!

Another sports team has been created!


Well, on my eyes at least! This latest request comes from Melanie and Paola, and is dedicated to Lexi! Whilst orange and teal are colors that certainly don't look attractive together (think of their uniforms... eek!) they certainly can, and will, work on the eyes!













So here we go.... Grabbing a few colors, we paint with our brushes! Priming your eyes before putting on shadows helps for a number of reasons:

1. The colors stay put
2. There is no creasing
3. Minimal blending of colors (where they meet, if not blended together)
4. No "runny" makeup- as in melting off your face

This is great, especially taking into consideration where you watch football games:
1. A Stadium
2. A Sports Bar (21+ only please!!)
3. Your living room

There are various factors which come in to play in each setting which could help your makeup run off your face unless... Namely, your eye shadows.

Stadiums- they can be indoors or out. If you're out, you hope you don't get rained out.... Snowed out... Or even worse- furnace blasting hot, converting your once perfect face into a melting waxy mess of color. Bad bad bad! When you apply foundation which is liquid based, always finish by setting your makeup with a translucent or High Definition powder. This locks your carefully created porcelain finish into staying that way. The same thing goes for eye shadows- the eyelid primer you use essentially locks your eye colors in place. And, of course, always use waterproof mascara if you're going to be outside or at a bar- you never know when it's going to rain... Or when a beer fight's gonna break out.

Now that we have the ground rules established, see how to create the look below!


Face Off:
Nivea Soft Moisturizing Cream
e.l.f. Concealer
Too Faced Illuminating Foundation in London Fair
e.l.f. High Definition finishing powder

The Eyes Have It:
Moi Minerals Cosmetics Mineral Eye Shadow in Drifter.
Orglamix Cosmetics Mineral Eye Shadows in Mandarin and Vanilla Birthday Cake
Wet 'N Wild Kohl Eyeliner Pencil in Black
WNW Gel/Creme Eyeliner in Black
WNW MegaLength Mascara in Black


Finishing the Look:
e.l.f. Super Glossy Lip Shine in Candlelight


There you have it- knockout team colors Eye Look for the Miami Dolphins!
This one's for you Lexi!

Thanks for stopping by and checking it out!

Let's hear it for purple, orange and white! Yes, they can be worn together! And I show you how!



This was a request from Relynn over on my Facebook Page where I asked anyone interested to post their favorite Team Names and Colors in the Forum found underneath the "Discussions" Tab. I'm going to try and do these in order, so if there are multiple teams- what I'm going to do is one first, then go to the next person's inquiry, and then perhaps come back every few teams or so.... Just to be fair!




Anyways- if you want to see your team colors in a color combination on my eyes, go leave your info! Clemson University Football here we come! I dove in with three of the best representative colors in my collection that can easily be had- and they're listed below. In addition, I'm using brushes from e.l.f. which include the "C" Brush, the Blending Brush, The Crease Brush, and The Small Precision Brush.











Bright and bold colors, but subtle enough that it's not over the top for drama factor. This is one combination I just might end up wearing one day because I feel like it- the colors made my eyes really pop and I love how they shimmered and sparkled. Let's get to the good stuff!!



Face Off:
