Bawdy Blue a Burlesque Revue

This look is very dramatic and very fun. I love to do this look for the burlesque troupe that I am a part of.  First I always start of with UDPP and then NYX jumbo eyeshadow pencil in milk. For the lid color I use "Chase" from the UD 15th Anniversary palette and MIA from the same palette for the crease.  That combination alone is gorgeous. That's coming from someone who usually does not like gold eyeshadow.  To bump it up a notch for the show I use my LA Splash eyeshadow sealer for a sticky base for the glitter. Before that dries I use NYX Glitter on the Go in Mayan Gold.  It's a lovely true gold color with specks of holo in it. I love me some holo! MAC blacktrack fluidline was for the eyeliner and MAC smolder eye kohl for the water line.  Play it up with some bold lips. or tone it down with a nude lip.  Either way it's to die for. :D

My go to Smoky Eye and some Nails

Back and ready rock! I have made a wonderful purchase which will make my blogging and youtubing much better and more frequent. ::Fingers Crossed:: I purchased a Nikon D3100 DSLR. A fancy pants new camera. Much better quality pictures. So here goes!

This is my go to smoky eye for when I am either pressed for time or the creative juices aren't flowing. but this time i paired it w/ a bold lip.

The silver is #82 (I believe) from Makeup forever. I put that all over the lid.

Then a shimmery black. I used a black from some obscure Victoria's Secret quad I bought years ago. Oilslick from UD or Black Tied from MAC would do the trick. Blend that on the outer half and into the crease. You can use a transition color too...but I forgot. I used an ivory matte color for the highlight.

The liner is Blacktrack from MAC and Smolder eye kohl from MAC as well. The cheeks I used well dressed by MAC for a dainty pink flush

Then I paired it w/ Vegas Volt l/s from MAC and Wonderstruck lustreglass from MAC.

The nails are Essie's something blue and then the silver and black nail art brushes from Walgreens.


Until next time...
