All the Kids Are Doing It!
The Spiel
I've been seeing this picture pop up on all my social media sites of this chick with glitter stars under her eyes and a caption saying something like "new way to cover the dark circles under your eyes", or something wittier... Same message though! Whatever, details are besides the point! So after a very long day at work, preparing for the new store to open on Saturday, I came home exhausted but still really wanted to do a new blog post. So what better option that chucking some glitter to hide my obvious exhaustion from the day!! Plus, I mean, is it obvious yet that I will use any excuse in the book to use glitter...? Chyerrrrrrrr.

This is What Happens When You Have No Plan
The Spiel
Tonight I wanted to do this makeup I found on Google ages ago and have been dying to recreate (I'll give credit where credit it due when I get to it :)), but I needed white hairspray and of course, I'm all out. But I was already in my makeup chair so it's not like I wasn't going to do makeup! But then.. Well, I don't even know what this makeup is. It's like a combination of an alien/bird/black swan... I honestly have no idea how it came about, I just felt like doing something dark, and then I was all "why not add some blue?", and then the blue looked weird with just black and silver so I added green. Then it continued like that for a while... I painted my bottom lip and decided "well, it's already weird - f**k the top lip" etc. etc., you guys get it! And this is the result! I don't love it, but I'm still pretty happy, for a "wing it as you go" makeup. 


Something for your Nightmares... 

Eevee was all "Nah, no photoshoot tonight, sleep is better"... Bitch.

The Spiel
AND IF KAREN FROM  MEAN GIRLS DRESSED UP AS A BUNNY, NOT A MOUSE, THAT WOULD BE THE PERFECT DAMN TITLE! But in all seriousness, I was meant to do this Makeup Easter Sunday, because ya know, Easter Bunny and all that shiz, but then I went and became single and it was postponed, till right flipping now! Yay! So yeah, I'm a bunny, and I really don't know how to ramble upon that... 
Oh! P.S., I made those ears myself because I am the smartest person alive!!! Or because they were super flipping easy, here's a tutorial on how to make your own from the Mura Boutique girls! http://muraboutiqueblog.com/2014/04/09/diy-easter-bunny-ears/

Extended Sparkles
The Spiel
I've been super tired lately because I am a giant fool and haven't been taking my supplements, but I really wanted to do makeup so I decided to do something quick and simple but still make me feel like I've actually done something today! I actually love the simplicity of how it turned out, it's super soft and has a lot of sparkles, which I'm always down for!

Same Day, Different Makeup 
The Spiel
1 Day, 2 Makeups! It's hard to go from something so hardcore like gold leafing all over your body, to normal every day makeup, and I simply couldn't do it. So, I opted for a gradient lip AND sparkly eyes! Don't hate...

Black & Gold

The Spiel
I wish I had a more creative name for this one... But no. The brain power it took to stick all the damn gold leafing to my body/hair, it took any creativity left in my body today. Speaking of gold leafing, how freaking great is it? I went to Riot to pick some more up, and ended up getting Silver & Copper too - obsessed & not even ashamed. I really don't have that much to ramble about with this one, again, the brain, it's done for the day. So enjoy!
