How To: Feeling Blue Make Up tutorial

I was feeling blue today and decided to create a very blue yet totally wearable look. This was pretty simple and required little work. The steps are above... suggestion don't put face makeup on first so you can easily wipe off excess shadow.

 To finish the look I applied a shiny white on my inner lid and blended up to the brow bone. I also added a nice thick black line on the top lid. Half black liner on the bottom lash line with some more white shimmer.

For this look I used:

Urban Decay Primer Potion

Calypso Minerals- Drama

Calypso Minerals- In The Navy

Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush- Crystal Ball

LORAC Special Effects Mascara Black Pearl
For the bottom black on my lower lid I used Urban Decay- Creep

Calypso Minerals currently does not have a website but Jenn the owner does have a facebook page and will work with you if you are looking for product. There are lots of things on the internet about Calypso Mineral right now and complaints regarding people not receiving product. Jenn and I spoke about this and she was completely honest about the past issues she has had.

 Basically her business blew up with orders because the product is so fabulous and because she is just one woman trying to create and pump out product it got over whelming quickly! She has taken a step back and is trying to do things a bit slower this time so her customers receive the customer service they deserve and the product we all love!

My vote - give Calypso Minerals a try the colors are amazing and super pigmented. Not to mention that if you pay via paypal and for some reason you don't receive a product you can get your money back! Check out Calypso Minerals here.

Good luck little blue birds.

What's Hot: Urban Decay Naked2 Palette

 

I am a huge fan of Urban Decay and LOVE the NAKED palette full of beautiful neutrals that come in the perfect combination of matte and sparkle. Well Urban Decay has created a sequel to it's most coveted palette called NAKED 2. What makes this so special? On it's website it states "neutral is anything but boring" which is just so true. I've always loved deep purples, black and blues for my lids but these neutrals reinstated a deep love for a more natural look. This palette features some wonderful upgrades including a much bigger mirror and a new brush that is double ended featuring a shadow brush and a crease brush, but it gets better they throw in a travel size Lip Junkie gloss in Naked.

Though I have yet to experience the new palette, hello it came out today, it's original is a smooth applying shadow that just beautifully highlights your peepers.

It's very pigmented and long lasting, it doesn't create that obnoxious dust that drifts in all the wrong places. Purchase both palettes for the complete neutral experience, this is the perfect palette for that deep smokey eye look you love or for the perfect work look you have been searching for. This palette provides it all.

Tip: highlight brow bone with a light matte color to instantly get an eye lift and totally define that new brow wax you just got!
