I done been a bad blogger

Haha, sorry.  That's a phrase I've heard here in North Carolina that I'd never heard before and it makes me giggle.  But I'm sorry that I haven't posted in a few days.  I've been really busy doing stuff around my house.  A friend of mine is coming down from NY this weekend so I've been touching up wall paint (which gets really messed up when you have a dog who crashes into walls haha) and trim paint and I painted my bedroom (and ceiling.  I swear painting ceilings is a form of torture).  So I've been busy and *gasp* haven't worn any makeup!!!  I figure there's not a whole heck of a lot of point when I'm just going to sweat and get paint splatters everywhere.

Last night, when I finally finished painting my bedroom, I NEEDED to do something with my makeup.  So what happens when a makeup addict doesn't wear any makeup for a few days and then gets her hands on stuff???  This happens haha:
Do you think I went a little overboard??

Haha I was just going to do something quick and simple and this happened.  Oh well haha.  It was quick but not so much a simple, wearable look that I initially was going for.

So anyhow, here's a more normal look for me.  I used Inglot shadows AMC 71 and 72.  And I just have to say that the AMC colors aren't my favorites.  I don't know what it is, but they're just not as nice to work with as the matte colors.  I wish I liked them more but I primarily stick with the matte and pearl shadows that I got from Inglot.  Love the colors, not so much the way they apply.  Anyways, here's what I did today (haha I wasn't feeling very photogenic today haha)

And here's my finished bedroom (I tried to get a picture where you could kinda see the bathroom too so you could see the colors together)
Now it just needs some wall decor haha.

So I do apologize for my lack of posts but I'll try to be a little better.  I'm so excited because my friend who's coming down will let me do whatever I want with her makeup so I get to practice on somebody who isn't me!!  Hooray!  Well I hope you guys have a great night!

  10. Haha thanks guys! That first one just was kinda crazy and fun, definitely a little dramatic for my liking. And yes Jess, I did attempt orange lips but I don't have one so I custom mixed some red with yellow eyeshadow. And in the second one, I believe that is Myth and Revlon Papaya lipgloss... maybe haha. And why can't all of Inglot shadows be as amazing as the mattes??? They're all great, but the mattes are INCREDIBLE!
