My DH is OOT as well and I am drinking, doing my face, and about to start an episode of Outlander. Nice to know I'm not the only one playing with pretties on a Friday night. oliviapope and ESF, post pics!
Here are mine. I'm loving the smokey emerald eye and it may be my Denver GTG makeup. I practiced it again tonight.
I used: Strange from Naked 3 all over, then Chopper from Naked 2 in the crease as a transition color. Snakebite from Naked 2 in the inner and outer corner. I picked up a couple of Nyx loose pearl shadows today just to play with for an emerald eye. Jade Pearl is the green, and I lined with a bit of Oro, which is a gold. I foiled them both and took the Jade onto the lower lash line. I did the same with Oro but it's hard to tell. Then I did wings with black Rimmel gel liner. I had a harder time getting the lines precise with a brush and gel liner than the liquid that I used the last time. Oh well, that's why I'm practicing, right?
I am a little concerned, though. I used my hand to mix the wet shadow and it's stained pretty good from foiling the green. I've used soap and makeup remover and um, it's still there. Hope I don't look like an alien for the next several days.
ETA: I promise that the green is considerably brighter IRL.
Three of the shades in the bottom one are in the Natural Eyes palette. Nudie, Cashmere bunny and sexpresso and I kind of hate that I knew that as soon as I saw the names of the colors lol
The first palette is pretty but Imma need to see tutorials because I can't figure how I'll make those colors work without borrowing from other palettes. I'm kind of weird about feeling like if I'm going to buy a palette, I should be able to create quite a few looks with just that palette except for like Naked Basics.
I got the holiday set, "Not A Box of Chocolates" because I NEEDED Tinsel which was limited edition but I think they may have added it to their permanent line. Anyway....I know a couple people have bragged about them but I am shocked at how amazing the swatches looked. I want to redo my makeup right now while I watch Pitch Perfect.
Do it and be like me!
H is out of town. I just ordered sushi and did my face for the second time today. I'm watching Friends. It is glorious.
I had a dream I forgot to do my eyebrows. Since I've only been using dip brow for a few months, it's a valid concern.
Face: Tarte bb cream and NARS concealer Eyes: NARSissist palette (subra, andromeda and sycorax), sephora 12 hour waterproof liner in purple stilettos, and Anastasia dip brow Lips: sephora cream lip stain in infinite rose
Eyes: UD Electric Palette Blues with a MAC (or maybe UD) blue single to smoke it out, topped with NARS dual intensity Cassiopeia; UD liner in Ink; Sephora full lash mascara in blue
Face: Smashbox color correct primer; YSL foundation; HG powder all over; NARS bright pink blush (dunno color); Anastasia contouring powders; Becca highlight; NARS creamy concealer; LM brightning powder under the eyes
I think all the makeup I own is on my face because my parents are visiting and I had all this time by myself so I just kept going.
Eyes: nars dual intensity navy color with matte navy from it naturally pretty for the crease Blush challenge: mally liquid face defender in carnation with ethereal glow hg blush over it
Eyes: UD Electric Palette Blues with a MAC (or maybe UD) blue single to smoke it out, topped with NARS dual intensity Cassiopeia; UD liner in Ink; Sephora full lash mascara in blue
Face: Smashbox color correct primer; YSL foundation; HG powder all over; NARS bright pink blush (dunno color); Anastasia contouring powders; Becca highlight; NARS creamy concealer; LM brightning powder under the eyes
The eyes are semisweet with Lorac gel eyeliner, UD perversion on the upper lashes, Tarte Lights Camera Lashes on the bottom, UD perversion eyeliner in the waterline.
NYX cream blush in tea rose on the cheeks, purty persimmon on the lips. Everything else is the usual.
MIL gave me a check for 100 for my bday. I've decided I want to use it at Sephora. What should I buy??
I just bought the UD smoked palette but I might get the ammo one bc its 16 dollars. I already have chocolate bar and full exposure and am still mastering those palettes so not sure I need more?
I don't want to buy foundation online and don't feel like going to the store, but I guess I could buy something and then return it if the color is off. I would be okay with a powder though online I think.
Any recs? Should I get a Naked palette anyway? (Don't have any). I do need more blush. Hmmm.
I would get ammo. It sounds like with that, you will have a good range of neutrals and fun colors. I'd probably spend the rest on other stuff.

check out the bite minies. Throw a couple of those in the cart. They have a new bright duo that looks like fun, but violet/ palomino duo are a must have.

MUFE extravaganza smokey, etc., etc. mascara is a 100 pts product at Sephora. I'm so glad I am going to the big mall today with the real sephora so I can pick one up.
NewOrleans, back in the day of the first make-up thread you had me pick you up a fancy eye lash curler? Was it worth it? Mine sucks and while apparently my lashes curled on their own in my 20s apparently in my 30s they do at all, lol.
Seriously guys. If you need blush, run to Sephora and get these Kat Von D ones. They are being discontinued but they are freaking amazing.
I have heartagram, bellisima and wish. Its taking everything in me to not go buy all the colors.
I put wish on for the first time this morning and almost gasped on the first brush stroke.
They're being discontinued? Are they marked down? I have bellisima.
That's what it appears, although Sephora doesn't appear to be saying much. Still full price online, but no stock. My local store doesn't have a discount but have at least one left in every shade.
Eyes: nars giove, wet in the lower lid, dry in the crease. All over dusting of andromeda. UD strange on the brow bone. The middle color in the coastal scents go palette in London on the lower lash line. Tarte l,c,l mascara.
Lips: UD naked
face: Mac bb cream, pixi bronzer, watts up, be a bombshell one stick in sunset
I really love my makeup tonight. I never do my waterline but I branched out tonight. Eyes are Pretty Rebel, blush is tarte Natural Beauty, and lips are Bite Musk. Also, this is the first time I've actually blow dried my hair since buying the B&b stuff. I'm so sold.
I just received my HauteLook order today! I'm in love with The Balm's Instain blushes (I purchased Toile & Lace)...thanks for mentioning the sale, MUT!!
I also purchased Mary Loumanizer and their tinted moisturizer, which I haven't used yet. :-)

YES!!!! My hair is like silk when I blow dry. I hate blow drying but OMG it is magical. I'm so glad you like it!!
Soooo...I went out to the Apple store to get a new phone charger. There are makeup stores near the Apple store. I wandered into Bare Minerals to play around. I wanted to check out the Natural High blush that heyjude loves so much. Well, they didn't have any out, and I started chatting with the saleswoman while she was showing me stuff. I told her how I went back and forth over Christmas about ordering that Magic Act palette, but never did, and now it's sold out. And she was like, "Actually....technically, they are sold out because we had to send all our leftovers back to headquarters last month, but this morning I was doing inventory, and found one that never got sent back. So I've got one left. Do you want it?"
I decided this was a sign that I needed to own it, so now I do.

My fotd:
Face is fit stick foundation, cocoa powder foundation and pumpkin and poppy powder all over, with the coral - y color from the 4 pan elf blush palette in dark. Eyes are Smashbox 24 hr primer, elf smudge pot in some shimmery white color, geek chic shadows in victory tour and girl on fire, purple Jordana cat eye liner, tarte lights camera lashes. Lips are Revlon balm stain in crush
I have decided I really do want the hourglass ambient powder palette because of the fact that it's pressed. I do my makeup in the car most mornings and it looks like a fairy threw up all over the drivers side from me trying to deal with the loose pumpkin and poppy powder. Lol

Add three more blushes to my blush count.
This is awesome! I think this palette comes with Natural High? Yes? This looks like a great palette!! I'm kinda kicking myself I missed out on it but I'm guessing it will show up at the outlets!!
I'm on day three of Meet Matte and I still really love it!!! I really like the balm's eye shadow formula. It's so easy to work with.
