My look

For my 40's hair I tried to do the bold side bang they had going on but like I said my hair just wasn't digging 40's style because it did not want to corporate at all! For this look I wanted to keep it super natural with the shadow and really let the brows, lashes and lips have the spotlight. I just used a light tan color on my lids. I did not define the crease with any colors. Just a swipe of eye shadow and that was all. I used a liquid liner to create a winged looked. I filled in my brows the way I normally would with my e.l.f. eyebrow kit. Of course for my lashes I packed on my Wet N Wild Megalength mascara. I naturally have pretty long lashes so I used multiple coats just to exaggerate them.

I used a bright pink blush by L.A. Colors in blushing pink. For my lips I used a red lip liner all over then I added one coat of Revlon's Colorburst lipstick in Coral on top. For some reason my lipstick looks a little pink in the first picture. 

Don't forget to head on over to Siri's blog Scribbled with liner and check out her 40's post!

Next Monday I'll be rocking a 50's look with another lovely blogger! Stay tuned!

Beauty Blog Challenge: Day Twenty-Five!

Favorite Body Lotion

I chose my Mango Body Butter from The Body Shop. I got this for Christmas a few years ago and I really like it. Mainly because it doesn't irritate my skin or eczema and it smells great! I can't use scented lotions on my eczema but I can use scented body butters. Not quite sure of the logic behind that I just know from experience lol. This body butter is for very dry skin which is also a great plus, is is super moisturizing.

What is your favorite body lotion?

Beauty Blog Challenge: Day Twenty-One!

Favorite Lipstick

I know I know. I was supposed to pick my favorite lipstick but I love these so much I wanted to just pick the brand! These are the Wet N Wild Megalast Matte lipsticks. I love these. I am really into matte lipsticks. They can be a little drying so I put a little but of lip balm on under them. They last a very long time and the pigmentation is amazing. As well as the price of $1.99 each!!

Collaboration with Elegant Rebel Beauty: Khloe K Inspired Makeup!

So today I was honored to be apart of Stephanie's, from Elegant Rebel Beauty, Try this look Tuesday. If you are unfamiliar with Try this look Tuesday here's what happens. Every week Stephanie partners up with another blogger to recreate celebrity looks. She chooses a celeb look for the blogger to recreate and photograph and vice versa. This week I tackled a Khloe K look and Stephanie dominated a Deborah Ann Woll look!

~Deborah's look~

I chose Deborah because she just really reminded me of Stephanie. Between the hair color and the facial features I thought it was a look that she would be able to pull off well. I really thought the colors in the look would compliment Stephanie just as well as it complimented her.

~Stephanie's Recreation~

Stephanie did an amazing job replicating it to a T! It looks great with her hair and brow color! Absolutely love this replication! She looks gorgeous!

Make sure to head over to Elegant Rebel Beauty for the post to see more on this look from Stephanie.

~Khloe's Look~

~My Recreation~ 

Stephanie says: "I chose this Khloe Kardashian look for Ally because something about Khloe’s smile reminded me of her. I was pleased to learn that Ally loves purple and had fun with this look. Isn't her eye makeup cool? And she totally nailed Khloe’s awesome brows! Thank you so much Ally! You’re beautiful!" 

I loved my look! Purple is my favorite color and I love doing bold looks so when Stephanie sent this picture to me I was beyond excited to replicate it! I did do a few things different so that it would compliment my eye shape better. Khloe had eyeliner top and bottom and that doesn't look well on me. This was an amazing experience. I am so glad Stephanie contacted me to participate in this collab. It is such a wonderful idea. I've never picked a look for someone else to replicate so it was a fun first time for me. I loved working with Stephanie on this! 

~Products I Used~ 

Sephora Palette (Colors I used have a box around them)

Wet N Wild megalength mascara, waterproof

Rimmel London ScandalEYES eye shadow stick in Witness White

e.l.f. Cream Eyeliner in Punk Purple 

e.l.f. Baked Blush in Peachy Cheeky

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Soft nude

Revlon Super Lustrous lipgloss in Peach Petal

~Tutorial~

Apply the Rimmel London eye shadow stick everywhere you are going to put shadow. The lid, crease and a little above. Apply the light purple in the inner corners and the dark purple everywhere else. Work with it until you get the shape that you are going for with your shadow. I always go for the cat eye look because it is my favorite. After you want to take the light purple and dab it on top of the dark purple. I did this to lighten up the shadow. Take the e.l.f. cream liner in punk purple and line your lower lash line with it. Then take the dark purple shadow and go over it to set the liner. Apply the Wet N Wild megalength mascara to your top and bottom lashes. Take the baked blush in Peachy Cheeky and apply a generous amount on the apples of your cheeks. Lastly apply the Revlon lipstick in Soft nude then a cost of the Revlon lipgloss in Peach Petal on top. 

Voilà! 

I just want to say thank you again to Stephanie for letting me be apart of Try this look Tuesday. It was a great experience and I had loads of fun. Stephanie will be doing a 50's look for the Beauty Through The Decades series so stayed tuned for another collab between us!

Make sure to head on over to Stephanie's blog Elegant Rebel Beauty to check out the other lovely blogger that was apart of today's Try this look Tuesday and to see the other look that Stephanie recreated!

Beauty Blog Challenge: Day 20!

Favorite Mascara

It is not secret that this is my favorite mascara! This is the Wet N Wild Megalength Waterproof Mascara. I use this ALL the time. I used to use the regular one that wasn't waterproof and I loved it so when I found out they finally had a waterproof version I was ecstatic! This mascara makes my lashes nice and long and separates them perfectly. It doesn't clump on my lashes. I apply this to my top and bottom lashes. Definitely a holy grail product. I can't even tell you how many tubes I've gone through.

What is your favorite mascara?

Beauty Through The Decades: 30s!

Now I'm not gonna lie I had a pretty hard time with this 30's look. It wasn't easy finding pictures on Google. From what I gathered they kept it pretty natural on the eyes with some type of red lip. A lot of the looks I found the lid color was almost the same color as their skin tone how ever I don't have a shadow that's the same color as my lids so I went with a matte taupe-y color. 

I used a matte taupe color on the lid. For the crease I used a matte brown that was only a few shades darker. I didn't want it to be really dramatic. I didn't put anything in the outer corners. I used a liquid liner for the my top lash line. Unfortunately I couldn't do my brows like in the 30's because they had they tiniest penciled on eyebrows and my brows are pretty full there was nothing I could do. For my lip I used a berry red lip liner all over my lips. 

  

I tried to really make my contouring darker than usual for this look. I used the bronzer from the e.l.f. blush and bronzer duo because it is a fairly dark bronzer. For my blush I used Peachy Keen by e.l.f.

Next week is the 40's and I have a guest blogger that will be participating !

I still need a guest blogger for the 70's, so if you would like to do a 70's look please let me know!
