Smokey Eye with a hint of Gold

Here's ANOTHER old look, 


As you guys can tell I'm still playing catch-up, but the good news is this is my last SUPER old look & I can start getting into last month's looks that I decided to put on hold. Yay!


For this look, I wanted to do a slight smokey eye.  I was going to work, so I didn't want it to be TOO dramatic.



Producuts
Face
As I've mentioned in previous posts, I don't really wear foundation everyday as it is heavy & I like to let my skin breath as much as possible so the only thing I did use was my press powder from Lancome & MAC: Marine Life (L/E)

Eyes
Sloppy eyebrows Yikes!



Urban Decay: Primer Potion, Blackout, Pistol & Bootycall
Sugarpill: Goldilux
MAC: Kid & Blacktrack
Maybelline: One-by-one Mascara

Colourful Tropical Look

Jeeze I feel like everytime I post I'm apologizing!  Thanks so much to everyone for sticking by and being patient with me.  As I mentioned in my last post a few weeks ago, I went to California to visit my guy for 10 days & I had such a good time!  But I wasn't expecting my sister's friend to come stay with us this week so that kept me away from my blogging duties longer than I had expected, but I'm back!  And while I was gone I did take photos of some looks I did over the past few weeks (If you follow me on instagram @LexiFresh then you got a sneak peak of most of them!)

On to the look!

Sexy Smokey Eye

Two posts in a row! Woah!
I was bored last night & wanted to play around with my makeup & while I was contemplating what to create it occurred to me that my blog is called "Smokin' Colour" because I love not only fun, colourful look;, but smokey looks as well, duh.  & since I haven't done a true smokey look in a really long time I though 'why not?'
This is the super sexy look I came up with

Another Makeover

Back in December I attemped to do a makeover on my sister.  To see the original makeover click HERE.  I was soOo no impressed with those looks I did on her & it really discouraged me from trying to do anyone elses makeup, but how am I supposed to learn if I don't practice?  Well the planets must have been aligned in my favor or something the other night because she offered to be my model out of nowhere, so I took her up on it .  
I originally intended for this to be a simple pinup look with teal liner & red lips, but I'm new to pen liners & even newer to working on others' faces & my liner kept coming out thick & sloppy.  I was SUPER frustrated, but she said we could work with it & gave me a flower from a wedding she went to as inspiration & this is what it evolved in to.
