FOTD: Metal Matte

I did a huge purge and organized my makeup collection since I've had some down time between opening toy packages and cross stitching, and it made me so excited about makeup again. I have really decreased my makeup purchases since I stopped YouTube, but I think this year I want to purchase even less and see how many things I can use up/hit pan on. I decided to give my Metal Matte palette some love today as I drink apple cider and refuse to get out of my pj's.

FOTD: Dream St.

I haven't bought as much makeup lately as I have in the past, but I had to get the Colourpop X Kathleenlights Dream St. Palette. I'm SO SO happy with it after the first use. I did two different lip options, because I also picked up the teal lip liner from Nyx to try with the Sugarpill U4EA liquid lipstick. It's a little more green than U4EA, but it should work for now. Also, my kiddos are no longer sick so, hopefully I can return from the trenches.

FOTD: Mom Makeup

I did this look while my youngest daughter was passed out in the floor. She's sick and has barely slept in the last three days and, before that, my oldest daughter had a stomach bug. Hopefully soon everyone will be well and I will be able to go back to posting as usual. Anyway, something I've noticed when I need a quick look is that face products on the eyes makes for a quicker eye look. In most cases, bronzers, highlighters, contour powders, etc. are formulated to be more sheer. This makes them much easier to blend quickly on the eyes, and you already have them in hand to use on the face.

Eyes:

Notoriously Morbid Giant and Necromancy contour powders

Notoriously Morbid It's Only a Dream highlighter

Face:

Notoriously Morbid Blush in Music Box

Lips:

FOTD: U4EA

I already have the U4EA bullet lipstick from Sugarpill, but I had to get the liquid version when I saw they were releasing them. Unfortunately, I'm experiencing bleeding with both products so I think I may have to figure out a lip liner situation for them. The color is SO stunning though it will be worth it to work with the formula to make it work.

Here's a look at the Notoriously Morbid Black Friday set! I used a few of the eyeshadows, and the lip product in this look, and I can't wait to do a look with the other colors. These eyeshadows are STUNNING, and it's impossible to capture them in all their glory on camera. You must get your hands on this set. The Mystic Matte is the perfect holiday lip for the darkly inclined.

FOTD: Polka Dots

I LOVE the polka dot cut creases that I've been seeing all over IG. This is my first attempt at doing it on myself, and while it didn't turn out exactly how I wanted it, I learned from it. We are so used to seeing perfectly done, edited makeup looks that I think we forget that everything we attempt in life is trial and error. It takes actually trying something yourself and paying attention to changes and things that might make it easier/turn out better next time. It's easy to get discouraged when you see someone do something on YouTube or IG and they make it look so easy, but when you try it, it doesn't come out how theirs did. I think we overlook that we don't always see the process it took to get someone from trying something for the first time to what we see on the internet. No matter what your skill level, it takes work to improve and do new things.
