Random Nails of the Day!

Alrighty, these aren't particularly interesting, but they've been in my unpublished pictures folder forever and I really need to upload them so that they are not there anymore.

And yes, I know it's been forever. I will try to take some eyeshadow picture! It's summer, so I have no excuse. And I do have ideas...Stay posted, please! In the meantime, suffer through this filler post.






The base color for this is L'Oreal's Precious Coral. It's a very red orange. It's not my favorite color, but I'm sure it works for some people.As yo might be able to see, it's not super bright, but it's not a burnt orange either. It's a creme and applies pretty evenly. The color that I put on top is one coat of 9.0.2.1.Orange. Awful name, very sheer color, nice layering color. It's kind of a glass fleck, very similar to Zoya's Tanzy, I believe.

 This is Sinful Color's Minted. These were stamped using Konad-like plates. The color was a Chameleon color, don't remember what it is because I don't own it anymore. Chameleon is supposed to be all duochromes, I think, but this color was just really frosty. Don't recommend. They have other good colors, though. And it worked fine for stamping.

 Another stamping color! The base color is China Glaze Emerald Fitzgerald. And then just a white Konad nail polish and a nail plate. Gorgeous.

Yes, there's writing on my hand. The base color for this...Just a creme black, I think. Wet 'n Wild. Their black is actually pretty good. And the color that I used over it is that orange Wet 'n Wild color from above. The one with the awful name. I just did layers of it. It's sheer enough that it worked well.

I wore these when I was doing a recital and singing as Elphaba from Wicked. And no, I did not sound good--I wasn't a belter at all. But anyway, she's green, so I wanted to wear green. I just used tape to get the sharp lines. The base color is Emerald Fitzgerald by China Glaze again. And I think that the shimmer is 9.0.2.1.Orange again.

Wet 'n Wild Blue Wants To Be A Millionaire

A sparse, sheer light blue holographic nail polish. You can vaguely see my nail line, even though this is probably about four coats. fortunately, the nail polish is pretty watery, so it's easy to get thin, even coats. And the more coats, the more intense holo. The holo is very gritty, kind of like sand. It's not a bad nail polish, but it's not top notch.

 Zoya Kimmy.

Beautiful color. It's a bright saturated red with lots of golden flecks. You only need about two coats of this one. Looks great on the nails, looks great on the toes, very flattering. I don't even know what else to say about it. Totally recommend.



 Zoya Cassie.

Warm, medium pink. It has a very subtle glass fleck type of thing to it, but it's not shiny. Even when I apply topcoat it's pretty dull. I personally don't love this color, but it's not bad either. It's pretty thick, only needs a few coats, but it can get kind of gloppy. Just make sure you have a super-shiny topcoat to make it look it's best.

Okay, hope that you like some of these, and that this post wasn't totally annoying. NOTD posts are kind of boring, so maybe I won't do anymore. I just needed to get these out. I really want this blog to be mostly eye posts, because that's what I like the best. Feel free to request those!

Crashing Waves

 Two looks two days in a row? What's this? Very strange... 

Well, this look is for the Makeupbee Inglot tropical looks competition, and I'd really appreciate a vote, so if you want to you can right here.  This look was obviously inspired by the ocean, and I tried to make the liner look kind of like a wave. It only sort of worked, but I think that it looks okay, regardless of it's lack of resemblance to an actual wave.  Be your own judge for that, though. 

 



So, my face looks sort of weird in this picture... But I thought that the eyes 
looked good, so I put it in anyway.








Eyes:
  • Too Faced Shadow Insurance
  • Urban Decay Clash shadow pencil
  • Urban Decay Zero eyeliner
  • MAC Climate Blue eyeshadow
  • Urban Decay Hijack from the Book of Shadows IV palette
  • MAC Surf the Ocean Crushed Pigment Stack (navy shade)
  • Wet 'n Wild Blue Had Me at Hello
  • Urban Decay Moonshine cream eyeshadow
  • Sephora pearl eyeshadow
  • Urban Decay Perversion eyeliner
  • Clinique mascara
  • Urban Decay mascara
Cheeks:
  • Benefit Hoola bronzer
  • Estee Lauder Peach Nuance blush
  • Elf Candid Coral blush
Lips:
  • MAC Lush Amber





 I hope you liked how this turned out! Not exactly wearable, but if you just took off the eyeliner, then it's a really pretty smoky eye. Very, very metallic.  Usually I hate frosty colors on the brow bone, but they're growing more and more on me.

If you have any look requests, I'm kind of on a kick with them right now, so feel free to ask! Oh, and I want to start doing a series, because they're really fun, so if you have any ideas for those, that would be great too. Talk to you soon!

Wet 'n Wild Comfort Zone



Comfort Zone, outdoor, sunny.  The bottom right color is actually a lot like MAC Club, you can see better in the top picture that it has some teal flash to it.  The green color is more green than this picture shows too.

This palette was about $5.00.  Most of the colors are very pigmented, the least so being the top left color and the color two down from it.  Don't necessarily use the palette as the engraved words say, because it doesn't turn out very well. 

 A wearable smokey eye:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance
NYX Chocolate Eyeshadow in the crease
Lower Left eyeshadow along the lashline blended up
Left eyelid and crease color mixed on the upper lid
Right browbone color in the inner crease
Left browbone color in the inner corner
Urban Decay Stray Dog eyeliner on the lower lashline with the right definer color on top
Urban Decay Zero eyeliner on the waterline and upper lashline
CoverGirl Lashblast Mascara

Daytime look:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance
Right crease color in the crease
Left crease color on the lid
Left browbone color on the inner corner and inner crease
CoverGirl Lashblast Mascara


 Left, MAC Club. Right, Wet 'n Wild lower right color. Club is a little darker and the Wet 'n Wild one has more duochrome to it.
