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!

Favorite Nail Polish

I don't have a specific nail polish that is my favorite so I went for my favorite nail polish brand, Sinful Colors. Just about my whole nail polish collection consists of this brand. I love their colors and they are only $1.99! Super affordable. 

What's your favorite nail polish/ nail polish brand?

Drug Store Haul!

I recently placed an order on eyeslipsface.com and picked up a few things from the drug store. Most of this haul is e.l.f. products. I'll start with the e.l.f. products and then show the other drug store items that I got. There will be swatches of all the products. It was hard to get pictures of some of the swatches cause of how light the product was but I did my best. 
So let's jump right in!

e.l.f. essentials shimmering facial whip

These are $1 each and can be used for pretty much anything. I purchased Spotlight, Lilac Petal, Golden Peach and Pink Lemonade. I got them to try and use as blushes (minus spotlight). However I am curious to see how they work on the eyelids. 

e.l.f. studio baked blush

These blushes are $3 each and I purchased it in the shade Peachy Cheeky. When my package arrived this was actually broken. It was in so many pieces. They sent me a new one and thankfully it arrived undamaged! I have worn this blush once and I do like the way it looks on my cheeks. There is some shimmer in it. 

e.l.f. studio blush

These blushes are also only $3 each. I purchased the color Peachy Keen. This is more on the coral side with I like. I am a fan of coral blushes. There is also some shimmer in this blush. The only way I can think to describe it is shiny. I have worn this a few times and I like it. It stayed on for my whole shift at work so the staying power isn't too bad. 

e.l.f. studio HD blush

This is the item I was most excited about! I am happy I finally got my hands on one! These HD blushes are only $3 also. I purchased the shade Superstar. I haven't tried this out yet but it is very pigmented. I have seen some reviews on YouTube where girls did demos with these blushes and it looks as though a little goes a long way. It is recommended to use the e.l.f. studio small stipple brush to apply it and unfortunately I ordered the regular stipple brush and it is way to large to use. I'll need to purchase the small stipple brush and I really want to get my hands on the shade Headliner.

e.l.f. studio golden bronzer

This golden bronzer is also only $3. I used it the other day and I must say it is pretty shimmery. You definitely have to be careful when using this. I definitely need to work with this bronzer some more to see if I can get it to work the way I want it too. I don't like too much shimmer in my bronzer because that just does not look natural. The first swatch is all the colors swirled together and then under is each color on its own.

e.l.f. studio cream liners

These cream liners are only $3. Before I purchased these too ( punk purple and teal tease) I only owned one, the black one. I absolutely loved it so I figured I would give the other colors a try also. When my package arrived the purple was completely melted. No matter what I did it would not dry out to be use. Thankfully the sent me new ones! I can't wait to try these out with some fun looks. 

wet n wild coloricon bronzer

This was $3.93 at my Walmart. I got the shade Reserve your Cabana. I have heard everyone talking about this bronzer so I decided to finally pick it up. I really like it. I have been wearing it as a highlight ever since I bought it. 

black radiance palette

I believe that black radiance is by the same company that makes wet n wild. These palettes are more expensive then the wet n wild ones. This palette retails for $6.99 at my Rite Aid and it is in the shade Urban Jungle. I had been eyeing it for a long time. When I went in the other day I noticed they had a little "gift set" and it included this palette and a mascara for only $4.99! The colors are super pigmented. I will definitely do a look using this palette!

lippes!

Wet n Wild  Mega last lipstick- $1.99! I got the shade Red Velvet for an upcoming post because I was lacking red lipstick!

N.Y.C round lipstick- $.93! This is in the shade Chiffon. I really like this color. It is not super pigmented but looks nice on my lips!
ChapStick- $.99! Haha, this was just something fun I picked up. I got cake batter and velvet cupcake. These seriously taste like it too!! 

What have you picked up lately at the drug store?!
