Everybody is Crazy about Being Naked!


Heyyyy Makeup Lovers!!!!
I never knew that there could ever be so many ways to be Naked until Urban Decay came long and proved me wrong by making not two but three different Naked eye shadow palette’s that every girl wants to get their hands on! These palettes are what every makeup artist, beauty blogger, and crazy makeup lover crave. I am going to safely write that all three of these gorgeous Palettes are Urban Decay best sellers since Naked3 is already sold out and it’s only been a few hours of it being out! The day isn’t even over yet. How crazy is that?
Sadly I am one of those crazy makeup lovers that ended up not making it to the site on time! It’s all good because someday I will have my hands on this lovely palette!
Now let me show you the three different palettes that the will help you look great being Naked. ;)

Naked Palette
The Naked Palette is loaded with twelve beautiful bronze-hue neutrals that proved being Naked is better.

Naked2
This one looks just like the first one but it is loaded with twelve taupe-hued neutrals eye shadows instead of the bronze-hue neutrals.

Naked3!!!!!!!!
I am so happy that Urban Decay went with a whole new kind of Naked with this Palette, not only did they make this palette totally different, but the twelve rose-hued neutrals are brand new! In this palette you have your "smooth mattes", "gorgeous pearls", and metallic finish ranging from the lightest shimmery pink to a deep warm black with rosy red glitter eye shadow.
Who knew that the color rose would be the new Naked color!
If you were lucky enough to get this palette then not only are you getting a nice double-ended shadow/blending brush but also getting an Eye shadow Primer Potion sampler with resalable samples of all four formulas! That is awesome, I am so jealous of any of you girls that got one today. Haha, just kidding, well kind of.
What do you girls think of the Naked3 Palette? Loving it? Hating it?
I hope you have are a having a good day or night!
Much love from your crazy makeup lover!!

Makeup Should be a Want Not a Need



As much as I love to create makeup looks and learning about the next big new products I do have my lazy days with makeup. There are some days I just want to wear my favorite bright pink lipstick instead of wearing a full face of makeup. Like in this picture I just wore a light pink eye shadow with pink lips with no face makeup, not even wearing CC Cream. Just my naked face. See I am not afraid to go out in public wearing no makeup because I know I am beautiful with or without it. I wear makeup because I just love it. I love everything about it. I love that it can make you look more awake when you feel like the total opposite and how it can make you feel much more confident. I love the art of makeup too. I love to create looks for you girls because it is fun for me. I love to do my own and other people’s makeup because it is just one of my passions I just love to do. I know some people may think I wear makeup because they think I feel like I need too but that's not the case. I sometimes get comments like "you don't need makeup". No one needs makeup; makeup shouldn't be a need but a want. If you want to wear makeup to embrace your style or make a statement then you should. If you feel like you don't need it, then don't wear it. I feel like everyone is beautiful the way they are.
Don't wear makeup because you feel like you need it or someone says you’re ugly. Never use concealer to hide who you are.
Wear it if you want to show your fun side by wearing blue or green eyeliner, show your sexy side by rocking out a smoky eye, and show you neutral side by wearing pretty nudes and so on. There are no rules to makeup in my book but just one. Make sure people still recognize you. When I do makeup on other people I make sure they still look like themselves. I see pictures on Pinterest of girls that contour the crap out of their face and end up looking like a whole new person. That's cool that they can do that but why would you want to change the way you look. Don't get me wrong I love to contour too but not the whole face. It should be here and there not everywhere but that's my opinion. Makeup should enhance your look not change it. Be happy who you are with or without mascara!
Never be afraid to rock out your naked face!
Much love from your one and only crazy makeup lover!

Gift Guide for that Crazy Makeup Lover in your Life: Must Haves


Hey Makeup Lovers!!!
It almost my favorite time of the year!
The air gets colder, all the holiday movies start playing on TV, all the houses are all dress up for the cold winter nights, and most importantly all the high end brands come out with fun cute gift sets and palettes for the holidays. These sets make such a great gift to give for that crazy makeup lover in your life or maybe just for you! It is always smarter to buy a gift set from any high end brand because you are saving more than half of your money then if you were too just buy one full size product from that brand.
For example last year I brought a Tarte gift set for $50.00 that had blush, a full size eye shadow palette and about six lips glosses in a cute makeup case. If I were to buy just one blush form Tarte is would of cost me about $30.00. DO you see where I'm coming from? SO don’t feel bad about buying yourself one gift this year. Instead feel beautiful when you wear it.
I am doing my gift guide post early this year because I might be working a holiday job again and that means I won’t be blogging that much for a little while. I am going to try to do as much blogging as I can before I become a workaholic again. Blah.
Believe me I rather enjoy the holidays instead of working through them because I love this time for the year but I have a wedding and a future house to pay for. So if you have any request for makeup looks, let me know now so I can create them for you.
Now on with the future must have Christmas gifts!!!
My top Favorites that I think every girl should have:

Urban Decay Vice 2 Palette $59 at Sephora, Ultra, and urbandecay.com
I know I already have written so much about this product but this is so worth getting. It is such a fun palette for that girl that loves to have unique bold eye shadows in an edgy sleek case. It’s sleek and sexy!
I have been using this palette for most of my looks lately. I am so addicted to it.

Ocho Loco 2 $59.00 at Sephora and urbandecay.com
These are just the most awesome eyeliners a girl could have. I have been using these with most of my makeup looks too. This is a perfect gift for anyone at any age because who doesn't like a good waterproof eyeliner that will stay on all day?

Makeup Academy Blockbuster $49.50 at Sephora
I have two of the blockbuster palettes that I have gotten in the last two years and I just love them because you can have just about any look you crave that day. The thing is this isn’t good for the girl that travels a lot because as you can tell they are really bulky and heavy. They also break really easy, so get this for the girl that keeps her makeup at home!

The Tarte of Giving Collector's Set & Travel Bag $59.00 at Sephora.
I have their last year gift set and I believe this set is perfect for the girl that travels because it comes in a neat travel bag and everything that comes with it is either sleek or small. The eye shadows are perfect to create an everyday eye and a night out on the town eye. Not only are you getting fun makeup but you also are getting two of the best skin care products any girl can have. The eye treatment and face oil is so helpful for the ones that want to keep their youthful skin in shape.
Stila Artist Essential Set $59.00 at Sephora.
All I got to say is this is perfect for the makeup artist in your life. Just look at it.

Too Faced Joy to the Girls $46.00 at Sephora and toofaced.com
Give this to the girl that loves the whole Christmas theme thing because this palette can't get any more Christmas if it tried. One of my favorite things about Too Faced is that they always have a theme and they stay with the theme by the names they give their eye shadows. Here’s is few of the eye shadows names that are in this palette:
Sugar Plum
Snow Angel
Chestnut
Joy
Spike the Punch
Don't these names just give you that warm Christmas feeling or is it just me?

Glitz & Glam Sephora Favorites $45.00
This is perfect for the girl that just wants a little bit of everything.
These last two must haves are going to throw you off because there neither a gift set nor makeup set but it is still perfect for the crazy makeup lover in your life.

GIRLIE LIPSTICK PENDANT $58.00 at besteyjohnson.com

GIRLIE LIPS PENDANT $35.00 at besteyjohnson.com
These two fun necklaces have matching earrings if you want to go all out but this gift is perfect for the girl that has makeup for days and you are not sure if she has those products already or not.
I think this is a really cute gift to give your crazy makeup lover.
If you feel like this didn't help you or that you want something cheaper for a friend then no worries I have two more gift guides post coming your way. One is going to be $25.00 and under gift guide for those that want to give a little something to their friends or co-workers.
I hope this post help any of you girls!
Have an awesome weekend!
Much love from your crazy makeup lover!

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire District 12 Look!


Heyy Makeup Lovers!!!

Covergirl has made a line of makeup for The Hunger Games: Catching on Fire movie and they also made a look for each district. They all look really awesome and very different. If you haven’t seen any of these looks, then check them out!
http://www.covergirl.com/capitolbeautystudio/catching-fire
I love these looks so much that I thought it would be soo much fun to recreate some of them. I am not going to do all of them because I really don't have time, but I am going to at least do one more. The look I recreated today is the one from District 12, now this look is not wearable at all as you can tell but it was so much fun to make. I love getting really creative with makeup even if it means I can't wear it in public. hahaha
I hope you enjoy this look and please feel free to request any of the District looks you would like to see me do.
Warning: really intense eye makeup!


Which one of the District looks do you like the most?
Have a good day or night!
Much love from your crazy makeup lover!

Makeup Look of the Season: Sexy Evil Witch!



Heyyyyy Makeup Lovers!!!

Last Saturday morning I was inspired to do an evil sexy kind of witch look because I was going on a witch tour in Salem that day and wanted to look the part. If you are going to do be a witch tomorrow or this weekend but don't want a green face well go with green eyes and a bright red lip. I went with red lips because I wanted to put a little snow white into this look. You know when the evil witch gives snow white the bright red apple. I felt like the green eye shadows and bright red lip give me that evil witchy vibe. I think my crazy hair also help a lot to. Oh yea if you are going to be a witch and have crazy hair mine then make your life easier and just let it all out.
If you are loving this look then please read on!
For the eyes:
Prep the eyes by applying concealer and powder all over the eyes.
I applied a metallic emerald eye shadow in the center and inner corner of the lids.
I put a deep olive green shimmer on top of the emerald green color in the inner corner of the lids.
For the outer corner of the lids I applied a charcoal color eye shadow with grittier and then blend everything together.
I then added a light shimmer green eye shadow into and above the crease but I stop right before the brow bone.
For the brow bone and tear ducts I applied a gold shimmer eye shadow for that awesome highlight!
If any of you girls are going to do this look then I would apply false eye lashes because it will add more drama to this look, but if you’re not a fan then just applied your favorite mascara and black eyeliner.
All done with the eyes!!
Woot Woot
For the face I added bronzer to my temples and under my cheeks bones, Then I added some pink blush to my cheeks I know you can't really see it in the picture.
My Phone kind of washes me out big time. FYI makes sure you add makeup to your neck too, so you won't get a ghost neck like I did.
For the lips I used a bright red glossy lip stain to add that evil apple red vibe that I wanted.
I hope this helps any of you girls that are witching it this year.
I am so sorry to write this but I didn't get to film my Halloween look that I wanted to do so badly. I just didn't had the time and now that I have time today I don't have all my parts together but I am get everything all set and ready for my next day off because I am going to do one my Hunger Games inspired looks for you girls. No more empty promises.
Well I hope you girls at least like this Halloween look even if you could wear anytime of the year.
I hope you all have a safe and fun Halloween!
Don't forget to eat lots of candy. :)
Much love from your crazy makeup lover!!!

Update!!!


Hey Makeup Lovers!!!
Can you believe that Halloween is almost here!! Its funny how time flies, soon it will be Christmas day.
I Just wanted to let you girls know that the Halloween look I will be doing will be up on Youtube before Wednesday. I know that it is late but I was thinking sense Halloween is on a Wednesday this year that there will be lots of parties on the weekend after. Let’s make Halloween a week instead of just a day this year lol. Also I haven’t been able to go to the Halloween store yet to get some things I need for this look! I will be doing that tomorrow. I love going to Halloween stores! They are so much fun.
I'm also thinking of recreating some of the looks cover girl did for Hunger Games on the Covergirl website.
Go check them out, they are awesome!
http://www.covergirl.com/capitolbeautystudio/catching-fire
I can't wait to see this movie. It's funny how the only reason I saw the first Hunger Games movie was because I kept seeing pictures of the actors and their makeup look so amazing. I never thought that this movie would have such fun awesome looks when I first heard about the movie and the books. This was before I read any of the books. Well I've only read the first one, I shouldn't say books. Anyways the book and the movie are just as amazing as the makeup looks too.
What do you girls think of the makeup in the movie Hunger Games?
Are you girls doing anything Hallweenish this weekend?
I'm going to Salem to do one of the ghost tours!! OoOoOO
Have a scary awesome weekend!
Much love from your crazy makeup lover!

Makeup Look of the Season: Sexy Fall Eyes!


Heyyyyy Makeup Lovers!!!!
Yesterday I got my glam bag in the mail but I was a little disappointed because I felt like they went kind of cheap with their products this month. They are still good products but there not the high end products that I was getting when I first subscribe to glam bags that are now called Ipsy.
One of the products that stood out to me was the Wet n Wild Fergie eye shadow palette in Desert Festival that you can get at almost any Walgreens for like $5.00. I thought the colors would make a really pretty fall look that you girls can recreate.

By using all these eye shadows I made this really pretty sexy fall look!

If you have fallen in love with this look then please read on.
For the eyes:
Like always I applied concealer and powder all over the eyes.
I took the orange color and blend it into my crease with a blending brush.
You don't have to do this part but for a good base I applied brown eyeliner with gold glitter in it all over the lids.
I then applied the warm shimmer eye shadow color on the inner corner of the eye lid and then used the smokey brown-black eye shadow on the outer half of the eye lid.
As I was doing this look I kept on blending the colors together.
I applied more of the orange color after all of the blending.
With a small eyeliner brush I applied the lightest color of the palette to my tear ducts and brow bone for a nice shimmer highlight.
With an angle eye liner brush I took the brown color that is in the middle of the palette and applied it to my upper lash line as a the eye liner.
Oh I almost forgot to tell you what I did for under my eyes.
After I applied the shimmer highlight color to my tear ducts I then went under the eyes with the warm shimmer color half way and then continue with the brown-black eye shadow. I then applied the orange color on top of the warm shimmer color.
As always I top off the eyes with black mascara and black eyeliner for my water lines. You can use brown eyeliner for this look but I love my black eyeliner.
For the face:
After I applied my foundation and powder all over I then applied a bronzer to my temples and on my cheeks.
I added a nice shimmer champagne highlighter onto my cheek bones.
For the lips:
I ended up making my own lip color by mixing a bight orange and light peach color together and made this pretty nude peach color with hints of orange. I don't know if that makes any sense but it’s all I got lol.
I hope you like my take on a sexy fall look.
Does this look remind you of fall?
Have a really good weekend!
Much love from you crazy makeup lover.
