Aphrodisiac



This smile reminds me of many childhood pictures.  It's my silly fake yet sweet smile.




My poor hairs are badly in need of a cut!  I'll be doing the Bumble and Bumble model thing again next month, so, if only I can make it until then.  :)






Tom Ford lipsticks...are...so...amazing.  Go and get some RIGHT NOW!  And then cry for your poor wallet.

I love this look.  I don't think taupes are the best color ever on my eyes, but I like the purple included and I feel like it's a nice natural-yet-dramatic sort of eye.  I also don't think it competed too terribly with the nearly neon bright pink lips!  I hope.

The new Dior BB Cream photographed beautifully, don't you think?  My nose got really shiny through the day, but I now realize it was an error in powdering.  I've since worn it with my beloved Korres Wild Rose Mineral Setting Powder over top and that kept nearly all shine at bay.  I'm almost out of that powder!  I will buy a new one because it's so darn awesome on me.  If you ever peek at it in person, do not be put off by the shimmers, please!  It doesn't look shimmery on the face at all.

Thanks for stopping by!  Let me know what you think of this look or anything that's on your mind!

  1. Just found your blog tonite and I am very impressed with your eye makeup. You are very good at blending and mixing the eyeshadows and I got a lot of good ideas from looking through your face of the days. I will be adding you to my list of favorite beauty blogs to read. KatherynR, McRae, GA

Please be kind. I'm happy to learn and grow, but it's also my face we're talking about! Also, no shamelessly promoting your blog or site here, please. Thank you!
