Rosie Huntington Whiteley

So, if you follow me on Facebook you know I have seen Transformers: Dark of the Moon twice in the theaters. I love the movies, and I especially love that they took Megan Fox OUT. Her replacement? Victoria's Secret model Rosie Huntington Whiteley. She looks absolutely amazing the whole movie, so I wanted to do a look of hers. I googled the movie premier and got my inspiration picture from the premier in NYC.

 My recreation

For this look it is all about the skin. Tried to make my face as flawless as possible (I didn't do it THAT perfectly, just for the sake of this look). Then it was just liquid liner, lashes, a pink pout and some contouring of the crease and cheeks. I even took it a step further and curled my hair! I'm happy that I could get some sort of decent looking style out of my hair... it's growing! 

This look took me a surprising amount of time. The more natural and flawless "no makeup" looks always take the most time. It's ok though, I'm proud of the outcome :]

I hope you like this one as well as my Britney Spears post. I have to start finding some inspiration/current looks on girls with tan skin! I'm finding it very hard to recreate such fair skinned looks. Oh well, all you have to do is adjust the colors :]

Love you all, stay tuned for the next look!

Britney Spears

"I-I-I, wanna go-o-o all the way-ay-ay takin' out my freak tonight.."

I was watching the video for "I Wanna Go", the new Britney Spears song, and I loved her makeup.

Inspiration!

So I googled a still shot, and got to work.

My recreation.

Now, I have MUCH darker skin than Britney does in this video. I had to adapt accordingly, and people need to view it accordingly, haha.

So, I have a smoky dark gray and black lid, with the silver inner corner sparkle. Pink lips *which was incredibly hard for me to do* and bronzed cheeks. I gave myself her "glow" by using concealer and a tinted moisturizer that was a few shades lighter than my actual skin tone... I opted for no false lashes because... I'm lazy :]

There are 2 more looks on the roster that I may bust out today, and then a completely creative look. I can tell you now it isn't going to be wearable. But if you like just looking at what you can do with basically a black liner and some blues, keep an eye out for it :]

Love you all, comment below if you have any requests!

A Week of Looks #1

As promised, I am doing a week of looks. This is the first of the bunch. It probably won't be daily because I don't wear makeup everyday, but there will be 7. Summer, easy breezy looks, you get the idea.

So here is look #1 - Quick, colorful and defined...

[Ok, let's just get a good laugh out of this picture. Lol]

So, here's a breakdown :]

Eyes:

Blue liquid liner

Urban Decay "Buck" in the crease

Urban Decay "Virgin" inner corner highlight

L'Oreal Voluminous mascara in Carbon Black

Face:

Nars "Laguna" Bronzer

Elf "Coral" & "Passionate Pink" blush

Urban Decay Afterglow in "Quickie"

Lips:

CoverGirl "Passionate" lipstick

And... done :]

Fast, easy, summer friendly! I hope you found look 1 nice & simple. I'm not into wearing alot of makeup in the summer. And I never use foundation, if I need some sort of something, I'll use a tinted moisturizer. So yeah... I have a new fascination with blue liners. I bought 4 last week.

FYI, don't get the elf blue liner pen. It is sharp! And dry, and well... crap ;]

I'm pretty sure that the next look is going to be a little more dramatic... I think it may be my 4th of July holiday makeup :]

What's YOUR first look??

Lots of love,

XOXO M

Zoya arrival!

Ok, so it's the beginning of the holiday weekend, and my Zoya came in the mail today! I will SO be painting my nails soon. There is this orange color that I can't wait to try. I know, I know, not pink, but the excitement can't be stifled!

Look up Tangy, people ;]

Also, look 1 of a Week of Looks will go up tonight or tomorrow. I haven't decided yet!

Lots of love,

A week of looks!

So, since I'm now done with my 30 Days of Beauty tag, I needed to think of something new and fun to do on my blog. I've decided to do "A week of looks"! For a week I will be posting summer looks ranging from "a day at the pool" to "a hot summer night out". I think this is going to be really fun since I haven't had much of any makeup look posts on here in a while, and I need to use some of the makeup I've accumulated this last month or so.

It will be coming very soon!

I think I may throw in another haul once everything comes in, we'll see :] I might even make it a video, cuts down on the reading!

I tag all my followers to do it too. Let's bounce summer makeup ideas off eachother!

Lots of love,
XOXO M
