I Be All Up In The Bank....

With The FUNNY FACE by Nars.... This is another color you will see me on a humble in. From www.Sephora.com or www.NarsCosmetics.com you can grab this for $24.00 (o.12oz). It's a great color, you'll have a smooth application, it's not drying and it doesn't bleed. The only downfall is that it's not moisturizing. So before applying it, use Vaseline or some sort of moisturizer and let it sit for about 3-5 minutes, blot it off and the apply the lip stick.

The Dark Side

I'm not much of a lip stick person. I like to only wear it if I have a photo shoot although everyone always requests that I have a more natural look than a bunch of makeup. There are only a few lipstick shades that I will wear out and about. Over the next few days I'll introduce you to my personal favorite lip stick shades that you might see me casually in. I think that they bring color to my personality considering I always wear black so the lip stick makes me look less plain, because I am that plain jane one solid color chick. I like simple clothes. So all black works great for me. Every now and then you catch me in something that is not black but close to it.

*MOVING FORWARD*

My first favorite color to wear is M.A.C Cyber AB8. Sells for 14.50 for a 0.10oz. It's like a deep, dark purple with a satin finish. When I wear it, it doesn't wear off too quickly but I find that I have to go over my lips with it at least two- three times to get to the darkness that I want. I've gotten a few compliments when I wear it from men. One guy said "I like when you wear that color, it kinda does something to me" o_O oookkkaaayy... Anyhow, here is what it looks like if you aren't familiar with it.



This color would be great for halloween if you're gonna be a sexy Vampire. Which I plan to be Akasha from Queen of the Damned this year... What do you think?

Razzle Dazzle

Yesterday, I kind of played around with make-up on Courtney's face-- once again. We'll just call her my canvas from now on. lol. Her face is so easy to make up and we don't HAVE to use fake lashes all the time because she has great natural ones.Instead of using MAC eye shadow, this time I decided to use Cover Girl eye shadow, and I filled her eyebrows in this time with black eye brow filler. I think cover girl is a great inexpensive line and their eye shadow's are great. I just can't use their foundation.

Below is the finished piece and the cosmetics used.



  • MAC Studio Moisture Tint SPF15 Deep Dark
  • Bobby Brown Creamy Concealer Honey
  • MAC Mineralize Medium Deep
  • Cover Girl Dazzling Metallics 119
  • Dior Show Mascara 090
  • Baked Sugar wet/dry eye shadow V043
