Hey, I got you, girl.
This is for those of us who might not be a fan of Valentine's Day. Nope. No lovely pink shadows, purples, or ROSES. No way.
This is, what I like to call my "Anti-Valentine's Day" makeup look for 2013.
Let's get silly. Why not? :-)
Let's talk shadow. I've got some beauties:
I'm currently obsessed with this fabulous cruelty free indie brand that I discovered on Etsy a while back, Rose Marie Shadows. The colors are stunning, highly pigmented, and totally affordable. :-) The colors that I am using for this look are Deep Blue Sea, Mermaid, The Huntress, and Buddha.
EYES:
♥ UDPP
♥ Ulta Shadow in Naked applied from crease to brow
♥ Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Iced Mocha to lid
♥ Rose Marie Shadow in Mermaid to Lid
♥ Rose Marie Shadow in Deep Blue Sea to outer V and crease,
blended up and out towards brow bone
♥ Rose Marie Shadow in The Huntress to lower lash line
♥ Rose Marie Shadow in Buddha to inner corner. SO twinkly!
♥ Black liner to lash and water line
♥ Black mascara
♥ Lashes are Red Cherry #1's
BLUSH:
♥ E.L.F. Mellow Mauve
LIPS:
♥ Nyx Round Lipstick in B52
♥ Nyx Round Lipstick in Doll pink
NOW... I did say no pinks, right? So why not get go for a black lip, instead?
I'm down.
Whichever way you decide, and however you choose to celebrate your Valentine's day, I hope it turns out as fabulous as possible! If you need a Valentine, I'm your girl! I can even send you a Justin Bieber Valentine with press on tattoos... (NOW I've got your attention!!) :-)
XOXO,
Colleen

DeleteI do anti-Valentine's day makeup every year. Last year I think I put a lot of glittery eyeshadows and went for a lunch with my (girl) friend. My valentine look is the look I love, because I always spend it with the person I love the most. Myself ;)

DeleteHoly Freaking Moly...I LOVE this look. I love these colors. I'm seriously speechless. I just keep staring at it...sooooo pretty. I especially love "The Huntress," but if I could bottle this entire look and wear it every single day...I think I might just do it. Unbelievable...LOVE!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day to you, by the way. As a serial non-relationship-ette...(Kristi's always been better with relationships...I stay away...;)..)...I very rarely celebrate in any romantic way whatsoever. However...I love hearts and chocolate and basketball...which are what my Valentine's Season are usually comprised of, so it makes me happy anyway.
Heart you!!
Janine you are hilarious!!! I'm so glad you love it! The shadows are amazing, so I had a blast putting this together!
DeleteHappy Valentine's Day to you, too!! Hearts, chocolate, and basketball sound like a wonderful way to spend the holiday, so have a great time!! Also, I'm sure we'll find each other on facebook...goofing off as per the usual and that couldn't make me happier!
HEART YOU BACK!!!
