iColor: Purple

So I tweeted and facebooked “Tell me a color…Hurry!” The winner for that was PURPLE! Now I haven’t posted a blog right after a blog, but I am quite proud of this impromtu makeup look.
This eye makeup would look great with any eye color, but it compliments brown eyes the most.






Originally, I was going to use a frosty/shimmery purple, but I think that matte and
 satin finishes are more “daytime” appropriate. 
I hope you guys enjoy.

Here is a quick makeup look that was a spur of the moment look.
There isn’t much to say about the look other that it’s extremely fierce. I am going to list the products I used after the pictures.







Products I used:
UDPP
NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in Black Bean
Coastal Scents Mica Pigment in Blue Sparkle
UD Eyeshadow in Zero
NYX Matte Black
Sephora Liquid Eyeliner
NYX Eyeliner Pencil in Silver
Estee Lauder Mascara
Red Cherry Lashes #199
It’s amazing how a different pair of lashes can do to a look. I recommend to all my makeup friends to try lashes…they are fun.
Hope you enjoy,
Carlos

Inspiration: Pin Up

This blog post is long overdue. I have been postponing this post because I have been busy and just haven’t had the time to do it. 
What I did on my friend was a ‘pin-up’ inspired look. I am not very educated on the ‘pin-up’ style, but to me it’s a simple eye with RED lips. Here are a few photos that I took of Sarah. Hope you all enjoy.
