Hypothesis Conclusion

So for the month of December, after buying a mini Sephora eye shadow case, I experimented with my make-up and here are some of the results.

Since I haven't been a huge make-up person I feel that although the looks are more subtle on the experimentation scale, they're still a step-up and I've learned a few things.

Liquid Liner Inspiration

One of my first posts on here was my art of the liquid eyeliner tip list. I did briefly take a break from my beloved eyeliner, but I just didn't feel the same.

Anyway, today on the Glamour blog I found this and I figured it would be blasphemous not to post on here. Eyeliner inspiration if you will.

I'm still experimenting with my little Sephora pack to great results, and now I have new things to try. I'm excited.

I look so vampy here.

I would also like to add to my tips of putting on liquid eyeliner [and this is an important one, to which I should have mentioned *facepalm*]

To steady your hand, place your pinky or ring finger on your cheek. It seriously helps.

Things I Love Thursday: November 26, 2009

Makeovers

I have a date Saturday night. My first real date ever. Dinner and everything. I'm excited and nervous, because the only other times I've been on a date, it's been with guys that I'm comfortable hanging out with. So this is a change of pace. Anyway, I enlisted the help of my roommate Kayla to give me some make-up tips because although I'm wicked at liquid eyeliner, make-up is not something I'm generally skilled at, and I want to look amazing. She showed me the whole rigamarole and let's just say I'm pleased with the results.

Root Beer Floats

There's a girl in my Academic Writing class that has this pencil case with ice cream treats on it. The other day I was looking at it and I got an intense desire to make one. I bought ice cream last night and some root beer today. I haven't had one in forever

Parks and Recreation, and Community

I need to make up on all the shows I've been missing. Right now it's Community and Parks and Recreation. Both are absolutely hilarious, and I love Thursdays simply for the NBC line-up combined with 30 Rock and The Office. Also Louis C.K. and Amy Poehler make an adorable couple.

Peanut Butter Squares

My roommate's boyfriend decided to clean our kitchen and make us chocolate peanut butter squares while we were out for the evening. They're like homemade Reese's. He's officially the best guy ever.
