EotD Cocoa Mauve Day to Night

Saturday, August 29, 2009
What I used:
(Day)
-Aromaleigh Cocoa Mauve- a deep brownish mauve with flecks of green highlight
-Fyrinnae Finnegan's Wake- pale beige champagne colour with orange shimmer
-TSS I Bask in my own Light from Hope Quest Quad 1- sheer cocoa taupe pearl with a kiss of silk
-NYX Peach- uh, so NOT peach at all, more of a warm berry
(Night)
-Sleek Palette colors in black and pinkish/mauve-ish/gold
-2True Cheek & Lip Tint in Blush Pink
-Beat the Blues Iridescent Complexion Illuminator and Enhancer

Yay! More silly pictures! This was a quick day to night look. For the day, I used I Bask in my Own Light from lid to crease and added a pinch of Cocoa Mauve in the outer vee and as liner. Finnegan's Wake was my highlight color...which sounds weird (orange shimmer?) but ends up beautiful! I used NYX Peach, a very sadly neglected lipcolor. I wanted to step out of my "makeup comfort zone" and use a darker color on my lips. I ended up liking it, but I still felt sort of self concious about it.

To quickly change this into a night look, and to test out some of my new goodies, I used the black color from the Sleek palette as a liner. Then I took the pinky-mauve color and dabbed it into my inner vee. Last, I used my Blush Pink cheek and lip tint on (duh) my cheeks and lips! I am so in love with it...Such a sweet, pretty flush and a badass lipcolor in one! Even my husband said that he liked "whatever is on your face"!
Sorry about the crazy, lazy hair! Some days, a girl just needs a giant bun and some bows :o)

Plus, I'm a HUGE fan of Cake Wrecks and we saw these goodies at a local grocery store. OMG POOP ISLANDS!! It made us laugh so hard, I was so excited I had my camera with me! Too awesome!

Amazing look. I just ordered a sample of Cocoa Mauve. I can't wait to get it now. I'm loving the NYX in Peach; it's so pretty. I think that I'm going to have to get it.
Those cakes looks so funny.
