Inspired by the Dragon from "Enchanted"

I know I can't be the only one who gets sucked into Disney movies even when there are no children around.  This happened to me the other day.  The movie "Enchanted" was on and I just got sucked in and watched it even though my daughter was at school haha.  But I was excited in the scene where the evil queen becomes a dragon because of the gorgeous colors they chose to make the dragon!  I was inspired!

Here's a picture of the dragon!

My look came out a bit more green (I was going from memory and remembered it a bit more green... whoops!) but it was fun to do!  So here's the look:




Color Placement:
All Makeup Geek Eyeshadows:
1- Shimmermint
2- Mermaid
3- Peacock
4- Envy
5- Duchess
6- Unicorn
7- Wisteria
8- Bling







It felt good to be inspired and do a look with lots of colors!  

Also I have good news!  Meredith Jessica from Pigments and Palettes is awesome a decided to feature me as her blogger of the month for April.  She does a really fun (but tough!) interview so CLICK HERE if you want to check that out!

And a quick personal update, I go in for my 4th round of chemo on Monday.  I'm not looking forward to it, especially since I'm feeling good right now and I know it'll make me feel like poo.  I mean, I know I have to do it but I really dread going.  I was debating on doing a "Come to Chemo" with me post but I'm not sure if you guys would be interested in seeing that or if I'd be allowed to take pictures in the office where they do the chemo.  Let me know what you think about that idea.

But other than that I feel almost back to normal, my tummy is still sore from surgery but I can deal as long as I don't feel like I'm gonna puke haha.  My skin is getting better so I've been feeling a little better and actually wanting to do makeup, which makes me happy.  

So that's what I have for today!  I hope you all are doing well!!  Thanks for checking this out!!

  5. Holy wow this is gorgeous! I think I need to buy all those colors just to do this look!

    I'm glad to hear your feeling well! I, for one, would love to see a "come to chemo" post. When my mom had cancer, I never got to see what kinds of things she actually had to go through, so I would think its interesting. Also, I love the everyday blog posts.....it makes me feel close to the blogger, lol.

  6. You definitely make me wanna go buy those shadows now for sure! You look amazing as always. I think doing more personal post will be good for you, so in a few months when you have kicked it's a** you can look back and have photos. I love kids movies, I don't have kids and I usually netflix them all :)

  8. Congrats on being Beauty Blogger of the Month on Meredith's blog! This look is gorgeous and you are so talented. As for your experience with chemo, do whatever you feel comfortable with. If you want to share that part of your life, then go for it, but don't feel pressured to share more than you want to. :-)

  14. So beautiful, and I love it even more in combination with your inspiration image.

    Regarding the come-to-chemo post, I would definitely be interested to read, but I also understand that it's a deeply personal thing that you are going through. Basically, I wouldn't expect you to share something like that, but would be curious and respectful if you did.

  21. This look is great! I love the shadows that you used! Congrats on being chosen as Mededith's blogger of the month! That's a big accomplishment:)
    As for chemo, do what you feel is right. If you don't want to share that part of your life, feeling that would be too personal or too hard to write, then don't. But it is always nice to get your feelings out, so this post could be good for you! Just do what you feel is in your best interest!
