Back to the Basics!


Zombies!

I've just spent a good hour trying to figure out how to remove DISQUS from my blog. It was a huge pain in my ass, but I think I've got it figured out. I was having a lot of issues with it and receiving messages and emails from my readers telling me they could not comment with DISQUS. In a blaze of glory, I took it off the blog! That means that the regular blogger comment box is back! And because of all the freaking effort it took to remove DISQUS, I don't think it'll be back on MZ.

This does mean I've lost a lot of my comments. :/ But I guess it's a good time to start a new..unless I can figure out how to import them over from DISQUS. *shakes head.*

I hope this will be better for everyone to comment on my blog!

I hope you're all having an awesome week so far. School started this week here in NM, so I've been minus one kid during the days. It's been nice, but I miss him too. ;) I decided to do a pretty green look today just for the hell of it..and it goes a little something like this...






Played with colors here a bit for fun...

TFSI as primer
Loreal Infallible eyeshadow in "Golden Emerald" main lid and blended into lower lash line
Petrizzio Glimmers eyeshadow palette in "Dark Blue"  blended into crease
MAC "Shroom" for highlight

August Post of Awesome and WIN!


Zombies!

I never do favorite's posts, but this month, I couldn't resist. I've received and purchased some really amazing things this month and wanted to share!

The lot of goodies! (Be sure to click on images for maximum awesome!)




My two favorite lippies on the face of the earth right now! I received each from sepeate friends. Fucsia is all the way from Chile! And it's GORGEOUS!




The bottom of "Fucsia's" tube. Thanks again Rocio!


No explanation needed.


It is so hot and so neon and so freaking awesome! Thank you again SO MUCH Sarah!


CYY on mah lips, just because!


Petrizzio "In Love-Dark Blue" pallete from Chile!




One of the new Loreal Infallible eyeshadow colors in "Glistening Garnet"...it's beautiful!





I resisted this for a while...but I had a pretty good coupon the other day and so I snagged it. I've used it about 3 times now and I LOVE it! I'll have a more in-depth review in the days to come. But so far, it's great! (It was odd to see the ashy white liquid squeezed from the tube at first but once you see it magically change to fit your skin color, you're in awe!)


Swatches! (I swatched the colors in the Dark Blue palette separately and then mashed them all together for the far left swatch.) As you can see from my swatch of the BB cream, it comes out white and ashy and then transforms to fit your skin color. COOL!


Do you see anything here you've recently acquired? Any recent gifts you're in love with?

I don't know why, but I just love the combo of purple and teal together and the colors together make me feel pretty and bright. So, I did a purple/teal combo today but darkened the crease.






The Goods:
TFSI as primer
Loreal "Endless Sea" Infallible eyeshadow as base
MAC "Teal" pigment patted over "Endless Sea"
MAC "Steamy" used to help blend the teal up and out and into lower lash line
MAC "Star and Rockets" mixed with "Violet" pigment blended above crease and into lower lash line
MAC "Push the Edge" pigment beldned into crease
MAC "Vanilla" pigment as highlight and inner corner
Random liner and mascara

Cheeks:
Milani Illuminating Face Powder in "Beauty’s Touch"

I hope you like my face today! What is your go-to color combination?

Pool Party Splatter, NOTD!


Zombies!

I have a super fun manicure to show you all today. If you don't yet own China Glaze's "Pool Party", I implore you to grab yourself one NOW. How can you go wrong with neon hot pink? ;) I wanted something fun and funky today and here is what I came up with!






The Goods:
Milani basecoat- not pictured
China Glaze "Pool Party" base color
Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat in "Ink Splatter" for crackled effect
Milani's "Hot Pink" glitter for the bling
Sech Vite quick dry top coat

What do you think of the crackle top coats? Overrated? Overdone? Just right? I've found if I don't use mine for a while and come back to it I love the look of it. Also, the Sally Hansen crackle (in my opinion) is a lot more "crackly" compared to some other brands. And cheaper! ;)

Have a nice evening everyone! See you on the flip side. hehe

Upcoming Chinovi Cosmetics OMG Collection!


Zombies!

I'm excited to bring you tonight's swatches. I was able to get a sneak peek at Chinovi Cosmetics upcoming OMG Collection (each eyeshadow is named after a Greek God/Goddess) to swatch for you. This collection, aside from the kick ass names, has some amazing colors! Check them out!



Swatches!


Outside!


IPhone picture!


Look at "Hades" sparkle! And sparkle..and sparkle!


Aren't they lovely? My favorites are Hades: King of the Underworld and god of the dead and the hidden wealth of the Earth, Dionysus:The god of wine, parties and festivals, madness, chaos, drunkenness and pleasure at forever young, Aphrodite:The goddess of love, beauty and desire, and Apollo:The god of music, healing, plague, the sun, prophecies, and poetry; associated with light, truth and the sun. I find this pretty hilarious because all of those traits are me rolled into one! :D

Keep an eye out for the release of this new collection! You can find Chinovi on Facebook HERE!

Do you see anything that you can't live without?
