Brown with Gold Glitter Look

Posted on March 23, 2011 | 7 Comments
I used Inglot eye shadows from the Freedom System neutral palette I put together when I visited Inglot's London location back in November. I also used MAC "Reflects Antique Gold" glitter to add some sparkle to the look. I added the glitter after I finished applying all of my eye shadow -- water-based mixing medium helps the glitter stay on the lid! Read more...
Old Hollywood Glam Makeup Look

This simple yet sophisticated makeup look is all about keeping your eye shadow minimal and wearing a bold red lipstick. These are characteristics of old Hollywood glamour. Many of today's stars like Scarlett Johansson, Angelina Jolie, and Gwen Stefani are often seen wearing this type of vintage makeup for award shows as well as everyday. The best thing about this makeup is that you can wear it during the day and into the night, and it doesn't take long to do! Read more...

This look features the Royal Pride Palette, my favorite of the three removable palettes that come with the tokidoki Robbery Palette I recently reviewed. Royal Pride Palette has really pigmented copper, gold, rust, and brown eye shadows, and it is the only palette that comes with a bronzer (the other two come with blush). See how they all look together in this makeup look! Read more...

Here's my holiday party makeup look, complete with glitter and crystals! I used both cosmetic grade gold glitter with eyelash glue and Milani Crystal Eyes in gold on my eyes. I also applied three crystals in a line that follows the curve of my lower lash line. The crystals on the ends are silver and the one in the middle is a yellow gold to match the silver and gold sequins on my holiday party dress. Read more...
Yellow and Brown with Blue Glitter EOTD

Here's one way to combine subtle glitter to your eye makeup -- on top of your eyeliner! Apply a glitter liquid liner on top of a dark eyeliner to really bring out the color(s) of the glitter. For this Eye of the Day, I used a matte black gel liner with a sparkly blue glitter liquid liner. This is my first time using Barry M Glitter Liquid Eyeliner (love it!), but I'm also a big fan of Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner. Read more...
