Smokey Blue FOTD

Hey guys!

So lately I have been being very bland and boring with my makeup due to lack of time and energy to make the effort to do it. I have been working a lot especially in the early morning and who likes doing their makeup at 5 a.m? haha But, one of the days that I worked later at Ulta, I decided to play around with my Urban Decay shadows and here is what I came up with. :)

Hello!

This eye look kind of ended up being a test run for a makeup look that I will be doing on one of my friends tomorrow for her prom. 

I looooveeee the color of this NYX glitter.

My cat decided to run on my face with her claws while I was sleeping. -_-

Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 Hour Eye Shadows.. are the bomb.

Everyone who loves makeup has been buzzing about the new Maybelline Color Tattoos 24 Hour Eye Shadows! Having heard a lot of good things about them, I decided that it was my turn to pick some of these up for myself. After looking at different swatches, the colors that most intrigued me were Tenacious Teal, Edgy Emerald, and Pomegranate Punk. 

And, OMG I will say that all the good things said about these eye shadows are for real! 

They are super pigmented,  creamy, and long wearing. I have not tested to see if these will wear for the full 24 hours, but after swatching them on my arm, they would not budge! I mistakenly swatched "Pomegranate Punk" right after leaving Target on my way to school. Needless to say, I was stuck with this color on my arm throughout my whole class until I got home to take it off with makeup remover. Not even soap and water would take the color off! 

These shadows retail for anywhere from $6 to $7. I found them the least expensive at Wal Mart for just under  six dollars. Awesome quality at this low of price? You cannot beat that seeing that these are compared to the MAC Paint Pots which retail for $17.50. 

Maybelline VS Mac

Maybelline: 4 grams for $7

MAC: 5 grams for $17.50

Feelin' pretty edgy with my "Edgy Emerald" on my lid and lower lash line. 

If you do not already own any of these, I highly suggest that you buy at least one. They offer a wider variety of colors to satisfy your neutral or bright color need. They are a great affordable makeup item that everyone will enjoy. :)

Butter London : Blagger

I want to share with you all one of my new absolute favorite nail polishes: Blagger by Butter London. I normally do not do nail posts because I suck at doing nails but I feel that this is worth sharing. haha. 

I first saw this nail polish recently when I watched That's Heart's Youtube video about her November favorites (click here to watch). She wasn't even wearing it on her nails. I just saw the bottle and it was love at first sight. I picked it up from Ulta as soon as I could. Good thing, because they only had ONE left. And it turns out the only one left had already been swatched on. Poo. 

 I normally would not spend the $14 for the Butter London nail polishes but I loved this color so much. I must say that I am impressed with the formula of this nail polish. I only applied one coat to achieve the opacity of this color. 

I would recommend this color to anyone! It is a great way to have a pop of a beautiful blue added to any black or neutral outfit. Temptalia has an awesome review of this nail polish with a lot of pictures (Click Here to read).

And this is what happens when you have a self tanner fail.

White fingers and tan hands.

LOL Oops...

Any color recommendations from this brand that are worth the $14?
