Blue & Gold with Sugarpill shadows

Hi again everyone, 
Here's another old look from a while back:

My First Giveaway! (CLOSED)

Hi everyone, 

I'm really excited about this post, because at the end of it I'll be giving back to one of my lucky followers!  So keep reading on!

I started my blog a year ago in December & I thought it was just going to be one of those things that I started & would never follow through with, but it's really grown into something really meaningful for me.  My family & friends are supportive of my passion for cosmetic art, but they don't fully understand it.  Blogging has been a way for me to meet some truly amazing guys & gals who have inspired & encouraged me to pursue my dreams & my craft & for that I couldn't be more thankful.

LOTD With Some Drama

A few weeks ago I created this look of the day:

I really loved it, it was super plain, but still really pretty at the same time.  I used MAC's Orb on the lid & kid & cork int the crease, NYC liquid liner & Maybelline On-by-one mascara & finished off the look with Elf's natural lash kit.

Wing-Man: Robin Inspired

I wanted to add one more look to my mini Batman series (maybe I'll add more, who knows) & thought Robin would be a good addition.  He's Batmans wing-man & I took the idea literally when I created my cosmetic adaptation of Robin.  
Here's the look:

Batman Inspired

Here's another look for my mini Batman Series.  Don't go getting all excited for an over the top look.  I wore this the day I went to see Dark Knight Rises, but I had class before so I had to keep it low profile.
This is the simple look I came up with:

See, nothing too cray cray. Simple with a subtle pop of color,

Cotton Candy

Hi everybody & welcome new followers, 

I was feeling extra weird after I got my contacts from Kiwiberry1 & I wanted to do something out of the ordinary for me.  
I came up with this doll-eyed look using the purple lenses I reviewed last week:

NY Mets

Three weeks ago I went to a Mets game with a few friends & I wanted to do a look inspired by my guys; though it is hard being their fan most of the time lol.
This was my look:

Blue & Copper using MAC Pigments

Yippie!!!!

I have FINALLY caught up with all my old looks & we're on to newer & better things!  I got anxiety every time I opened my folder & saw those looks there that still had not been published, but they have been & its over! Are you excited, cause I am!!  

OK granted, this look is from last month, but it isn't from April or may lol.  I've used MAC pigments before & I really like them, but to use loose shadows on a day-to-day is really annoying for me.  I don't have much time to get ready in the morning & I still make a mess with them.  So, since I've had my teal pigment for a while now, I wanted to created a look using mostly MAC pigments.  

**I'm sorry this isn't a full-face look & I'm even more sorry for my fuzzy brows lol**

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.

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

Neutral eye with Gold Liner

This is an older look, so I may not remember all the products I used to create it & I don't think I ever got around to posting it on Instagram -___- 


This was a super simple look I threw together because I was bored & I had just gotten my package from Sugarpill & wanted to use their Goldilux loose shadow.  If you've been following me, you'll know that I am OBSESSED with Sugarpill products.  They are so amazingly pigmented & easy to work with.  


This is the look: 

I did this look right after I did my Golden Emerald look so there are still remnants of purple liner, woops! haha

MUG Weekly Challenge Batman Inspired: Harley Quinn

I'm sorry in advance!!! I was really excited about this challenge so I typed A LOT & included a LOT of pictures. I hope you enjoy :)

This weeks challenge from MakeupGeek is to create a look inspired by any character from the Batman series.  I've never read the comics or anything, but I've seen most of the movies & I used to watch the cartoon series on WB way back in the day.  I chose Harley Quinn because her character was pretty bad ass in the new Batman games& it rekindled my love for her sick & twitsted ways.  
She was only Joker's crazy girlfriend/sidekick/punching bag & not really a crucial character so I wasn't surprised she wasn't included in the recent films.
This is the face chart I designed for Harley had she been in the Dark Knight.  Normally she's portrayed as really attractive, innocent, but keeping in mind how the Joker was portrayed in the film-and how nuts-O she is-I decided to make her look crazed like he was.

Ocean Gradient

My creative juices haven't really been flowin' since summer classes started, so I kinda forced myself to sit in front of the mirror, but I'm glad I did.  I knew I wanted to use blue, but blue shadows can go disastrous really fast & you can end up looking like this:

Haha!

Fresh Summer Look

Hey everyone, 
This look is a few weeks old, just like the last.  But first, last week I was cleaning out my phone & deleted my blog photo album so I am away that most of my older posts are missing pictures.  Big thanks to Nikki from MakeupJunkie for pointing that out to me. I am in the process of replacing all the images, but the older ones are spread out between 3 computers & I'm having some trouble tracking them down so please bare with me. 

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!
