Splurges! Too Faced and a tattoo!


Zombies!

I don't know why I can't seem to get motivated to post regularly. Life, maybe? Whatever it is, I need to stop doing it. Tonight, I decided to pull out the big guns and do a blog post way past my bedtime. This might just become a *thing*...maybe. lol

A few weeks ago, I had some extra money (tax return!) and was able to do with it what I wanted. This only happens very rarely in my world, so I decided to do something I've always wanted to do....get a tattoo! But before that, I ran to Sephora and picked up the Too Faced "The Return of Sexy" palette. I've been eyeballing it for some time, because of the names of the eyeshadow within the palette and because it came with a full sized eyeliner. So, of course, I had to swatch it for you! I'm pretty excited about some of the colors. Others, I could take or leave..and the tattoo? Well, I'll happily take it forever.

So, let's have a look. Please click images for maximum awesome. 

This set contained:

- 15 x 0.035 Eye Shadows
- 0.04 oz Perfect Eyes Waterproof Eyeliner in Perfect Black
- 0.17 oz Deluxe Shadow Insurance Eye Shadow Primer

A few of my favorite things!


Zombies!

The start of a new week! I hope everyone had an amazing and eventful (or relaxing) weekend!

As the air outside gets cooler, my go-to makeup/nail polish colors change too! I want to share with you all a few of my favorite things as of right now, as I'm sure they will all change in another month!

Let's begin, shall we?

RED NAILS!

I've been desiring the perfect candy apple red color for my nails lately. I've had the *perfect* color in my head but didn't have a polish that fit the bill. That is, until I asked my friend Megan! She handed over Zoya's "Isla" and well, I'm hooked! Just LOOK AT IT! I used Manglaze's "Matte is Murder" on my accent nail with Jordana Cosmetics "Sequins" glitter on top. I adore this combo. I'd wear this all Winter if my tastes weren't so fickle and change on a whim. ;)


RED LIPS!

I've worn red lips almost every day this past week. I'm normally terrified of red lipstick because of the size of my lips but have discovered that if I mix the perfect red lipstick with a blue (cool) based pink, it gives me the perfect red without being too crazy! I still need to play around or just GO BOLD! On my eyes I'm wearing L'Oreal's Infallible eyeshadow in "Golden Emerald" and a black matte eyeshadow from Sleek.



OWLS!

We all know I love Zombie related "swag"! But did you know I'm also addicted to owls? My husband gave me 3 adorable owl necklaces for my birthday and I've worn them every day since. He purchased them at Walgreen's for $6.99. (I only know because we looked at them together at one point.)

Isn't he cute?


I'm curious to see what I'll be wearing the shiz out of in the next few months. I wonder if my tastes will change. What are your go-to beauty/clothing related items these days?

Random Makeup, Nails, and Outfits!


Zombies!

I've had a busy week this week! I first found two adorable shirts at WalMart earlier this week (I know, WALMART?!) and was excited that they were both under $10.00 each. Because of my excitement, I decided to bite the bullet and show you all here on the blog!

This adorable "Happy Owl O' Ween" t-shirt was in the Halloween women's section at WalMart for $5.50! I paired it with a long sleeved black crew neck shirt and jeans. On my finger is a purple and turquoise sterling silver ring. I'm also wearing a Zombie Girl necklace a friend sent to me.  This shirt is so comfortable and cute! 


This shirt made me so giddy when I found it! It was in the women's clothing section at WalMart for $9.88! The top back section of this shirt has ivory lace. the skull is made up of gorgeous pink roses and black glitter! I paired it with a black tank top, black short skirt, and grey leggings. Pretty baller, right? I'm wearing a cute black and white bangle bracelet as well.


Here are my nails from Friday! This is L'Oreal's "Brit Invasion" with Darling Girl Cosmetics "Gold-Digger" on my ring finger to add some bling. (Gold-Digger will be available soon!)


I found this at Target today! It's L'Oreal's "The Muses Attitude." It's a hot, vampy, dark teal with just a slight flash of purple. I am LOVING the new L'Oreal nail polishes! The formula is awesome and they are coming out with some awesome new colors!


I wore this amazing combination yesterday with my cute skull shirt. The colors are all from Fyrinnae's new Samhain 2012 collection! "Mermaid Masquerade" on main lid and into lower lash line, "Sultry Samhain" in crease, and "Mischievous Sidhe" above crease and to blend. That awesome blue liner is "Peacock" smudge stick from Stila. The lasting power on this bad boy is incredible!



There you have some super random makeup, nails, and outfits from this week! How do you like the outfit pictures? Is this something you'd like to see more on Makeup Zombie? I'd love to show off outfits that are budget friendly AND for fluffier girls such as myself? Let me know what you think!

Happy Saturday my beautiful friends!
