Happy Halloween

Sooooo I dont like taking my children trick or treating for various reasons so I just decided to play in some make up with them.
KK (on the left) wanted me to so the same eyelook I did on myself this weekend. I tried something different by adding it to her face as well.Kayla wanted to be some many things so we just settled on a lion.

Kaleb was a puppy dog. He rubbed most of it off before I could get my camera to take a pic =( I think it still looks good in this one.
A close up on her eyes =) I had fun doing all of their faces even though I had to bribe my son with chips to keep him still while I did his face LOL Happy Halloween

My halloween make up

I decided to be a kitty/leopard tonight so I tried a hand painted leopard print on my eyes by myself.I think it turned out pretty well for my first time dont cha think ? 
First I primed both eyes with Urban Decay primer potion on both eyes then I put Urban Decay Half baked and Urban Decay Smog over my entire eye.I then used NYC liquid liner in black to do the black lines in random places.I then took a small lip liner brush and dabbed brown eyeshadow in between the black lines.I finished the lip with Maybelline
Me and one of my girlfriends CiCi.She drew the whiskers and colored my nose on for me =) This is before we left out to the club.
This is me after leaving the club to show how well Urban decay primer potion works. I did my make up at 7 pm,I danced all night so I put really put it to the test.This was about 5am the next morning and even though my curls were sweated out and my whiskers and nose make up was rubbed off my eyes still looked great.What did you dress up as for halloween ? Did you go anywhere special ? *Smooches*

My first time using a bent eyeliner brush

Ive been in the mood to try new products that I have been scared of for the longest. To name a few gel eyeliner, liquid eyeliner and lipstick. I picked up the Sonia Kashuk bent eyeliner brush from target and the Maybelline gel liner from walmart. I got the Loreal H.I.P duo from CVS.

The gel looks really black in the pic but it is a ashy black when you put it on =( However I do like it but Im still on the hunt for a pure deep shiny black.
This was my first time trying the bent eyeliner and I must say I love it. Very easy to use so Im glad I picked it up. I put the gold out of the duo over the lid only. *Smooches*

Urban decay book of shadows 3 look

Just a quick post on a eyelook I created today using book of shadows III. I used the Urban decay primer potion in original all over the lid.Then I applied  last call on the inner corners of my eyes. I put psychedelic sister over the rest of the lid. I put smog as a highlighter then lined the bottom waterline with ransom half way and zero half way.Im wearing two different lipglosses,both are Zoya hot lips lipgloss in entourage and flirt.
Close up showing how flirt and entourage mixed together created a pretty pale pink. Also I want to remind everyone Im working on getting a camera for christmas so I can take WAY better pictures =).*Smooches*

A few things I got for my birthday

So my hubby decided to get me somethings off my wishlist for my bday (Sept.29th).Pictured above Urban Decay book of shadows 3 and Urban Decay box of potions.If you would like more details about either please ask and I will do a review on both =) 

So I did a eye look to match one of my favorite dresses.I put loaded all of the lid then I used a fluffy blending brush to apply perversion to the outer v of my eye.Then I lined the bottom half way with loaded and the other half with one of their 24/7 glide on liners in zero.

Another shot showing the loaded a little better

A face shot 

I went to get a fill in today and found half a bottle of China Glaze Octa Gone Wild. They sold it to me for 2 bucks bc they said it was old and no one liked it lol.

Another shot. *Smooches*

O.P.I manicure

O.P.I Cheyenne Pepper.I dont even know how to describe this color lol.Its a mix of a orange,brown,mauve and not to mention the gold shimmer. I found this polish while dusty hunting.I absolutely love this color.As you may know I love accent nails so I threw on a few heart shape rhinestones to finish off the look. *Smooches*

Cheeky Monkey Cosmetics

So this was my first time trying Cheeky Monkey nail polish.Ive been interested in this brand every since I read a couple of their polishes names.To give you a little history about the company it was founded by a mother of 3 named Andrea Pahn who said she was bored with what was out on the market.She decided to start her own company that creates fun,creative and cheeky products.
Booty call is described on Cheeky Monkey cosmetics website as a dark burgundy but to me its more eggplant with red flecks of glitter in it.This color is very beautiful.It applied for nicely so with 2 coats it was perfect.Dry time was average.

A shot of the bottle 



Get wet is described as a pastel turquoise on Cheeky Monkey Cosmetics website. This color is amazing.It has more green in it then whats showing up in the pictures.My only problem with this color is the fact that it was streaky however after 3 coats it smoothed itself out.So if you pick up this color dont be scared after the first coat keep going, its worth the 3 coats for the color payoff.Having to use 3 coats for this color it caused the dry time to be a bit longer then normal. I really like this color.

I decided to do an accent finger and added a few flower rhinestones. These polishes retail for $15 a bottle.You can purchase these from http://www.cheekymonkeycosmetics.com/. You can also check out Cheeky Monkey Cosmetics facebook page HERE.

(These products were sent to me from the company or their PR department for review but this has no influence over my opinion about these products)
