Day 1: Christmas Lights

Here's my first Christmas look...Christmas Lights! To create this look I used inspiration from seeing Christmas lights on houses against the dark night sky. I thought this would be a fun Christmas party look and it was surprising not that difficult.

I used Martha Stewart Glitter that I bought at Michael's Craft store. I'm not sure that it's technically supposed to be used for beauty purposes but I didn't get any irritation from it. And you can get quite a lot for way cheaper that other glitters. I used Too Faced Glitter Glue to make the glitter stick over Sugarpill Love+, Buttercupcake, and Midori. I also Milani Eye Tech Liquid Liner and Black Dog from the Urban Decay Black Palette.

24 days of Christmas Series

Starting December 1st I will be (trying) to post a Christmas inspired look everyday up until Christmas. Some of the look ideas I have are inspired by Candy Canes, Sugar Plum Fairies, Nutcrackers and much more! And Julie is planning to make some corresponding Nail looks! A fun way to countdown to Christmas!

Breaking Dawn Inspired Eyeshadow

What could be a better makeup look to start off a new blog with a Twilight: Breaking Dawn inspired look? Nothing. Inspired by the promotional poster, with burgundy, orange, dark purple, and a touch of gold glitter.

  This look is also gives me a fall vibe, so if you aren't into Twilight consider this a fall look. ;) 

What I used...

-Nyx Orange Zest 

- random burgandy I found...no idea what it is

-Dark purple from Wet n Wild Cool as a Cucumber

-Gold Glitter in lower lash line

-Milani Eye Tech Liquid Liner in Black

I hope you enjoy!
