Hair and everything. This is a crappy picture, but shows a bit what I did with my makeup. My eyeliner is slightly winged, but the rest I tried to keep it very neutral today.

Also it's a pain to photo very dark hair without it looking like one ginormous black blob.



And just realized that the above photo actually has a finish on it so the colors are off... Oh well, you get what I was going for.

Aww, thank you.

I draw an outline of the shape with a NYC Black Eyebrow/Eyeliner pencil, then fill it in with a cheap black eyeshadow that I snagged out of one of those gift set things you see at the drug store around Christmas. After that, I take a clean spoolie, and brush it through. Usually, and depending on my other makeup, I'll highlight the brow bone and the area under the brow with a white or peach eye pencil. That sounds like a lot, but it goes pretty quick, and is my "one makeup thing that MUST be done in order to feel like a human being." Well, that and my beauty mark. My natural eyebrows are a light/medium brown, so you can imagine how that looks on my pale skin with my black hair. No eyebrows girl! I could be a super hero...

Today:
Revlon ColorStay Foundation in Buff
Meow Cosmetics Pampered Puss Mineral Foundation in Frisky Abyssinian
NYC Black Eyebrow Pencil
Cheapy Black eyeshadow
Wet 'n' Wild White eye pencil
Maybelline Mega Plush Volum' Express Mascara in Black
Covergirl Classic Cheekers Blush in Iced Cappuccino
Prestige Liquid Eyeliner in Black/Brown (for my eyeliner and beauty mark)
Besame Red Hot Red
BPAL - Morocco

NYC Black Eyebrow Pencil
Cheapy Black eyeshadow
Wet 'n' Wild White eye pencil
Maybelline Mega Plush Volum' Express Mascara in Black

state of the arts long beach look by qtpiliz82, on Flickr

This is my look for today, I'm attending the State of the Arts Long Beach as my boss is being recognized for her work.

Today I have on Urban Decay Complexion Primer Potion in Pore Perfecting, Clineque Super City Block which just has a touch of color. On the eyes I have an Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion, Maybeline Expert Eyeshadow in Impeccable Greys, NYX liquid Eyeliner in black and Boots No 7 Exceptional Definition in black. On my lips is L'oreal Infallible Never Fail Lipliner in Red/wine with Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer in Peony over it. Goodness that seems like a lot.

Meh... The interview was great, buuuut they had already invited someone back for a second before they even saw me...

I'm considering giving up the search all together and trying to be happy with what I have. Is an extra .50 an hour worth driving farther and having to spend money I could be saving for school on a new wardrobe? Granted, I want new clothes, but I want to go back to school more.



Today:
Revlon ColorStay Foundation in Buff
City Airspun in Translucent
NYC Black Eyebrow Pencil
Cheapy Black eyeshadow
Wet 'n' Wild White eye pencil
Maybelline Mega Plush Volum' Express Mascara in Black
Covergirl Classic Cheekers Blush in Iced Cappuccino

Damn them! :kick:

Besame lip color in Red Velvet
Em.. 34,90 € (is it THAT good?)
Real vanilla flavor?! Really?
I've just looked up, the "nearest" store is in Austria, AND they're out of stock. :eusa_doh:
