Down in the dumps

Hello, My Beauties!

Today I wanted to share some personal stuff with you guys. I haven't been very active anywhere recently. I have just been so bummed out lately, I have gotten inspired but when it comes down to it. I cant get a word down or a video going. 

Week Round up! Things I blogged About.

Hello, My Beauties!

I can't Believe the week is up already! But I am glad its friday :) I have no special plans for the weekend, besides lounging in my pajamas and cuddling with my chunky monkey man, Alan my 3 year old. Today I wanted to share with you this weeks posts and speacial behind the scences stuff of TheMakeupSquid.com

Too Faced Bronzer Beach Bunny

Hello, My Beauties!

With summer quickly approaching I am getting ready for summer! Summer always means me wearing less foundation and going for a more sun kissed look. When I want to achieve a natural glowing from within look, I always reach for my Beach Bunny from Too Faced. I do not contour with this as it can be a bit to shimery for my taste as a contour shade, but as a all over color look, I love it especially for my skin tone.

Why I switched to CommentLuv

Hello, My Beauties!

NYX LIP PENCIL - ORANGE

Hello, My Beauties!

I am back with another favorite of mine! I love nude lips, I always have and I always will. No matter what the trends are at the time, I always find myself going back to my nude lips. I feel they compliment me better than any actual color. But don't get me wrong, I always find a way to add some color or drama to my nudies! A color I often reach for during the summer is a bold orange, no matter what your eyes are doing and nude lip with a bold orange blended well will always speak louder than the brightest fuscia, to me anyways haha.

Wet N' Wild Mega Liner Liquid Eyeliner

Hello, My Beauties!

Today I just wanted to share a quick post with you all on a liner I recently purchased and immediately fell in love! I have never used a liquid liner before for a winged liner, I only used my liquid liners to blend in my falsies. I have been working with gel liners when it came to my wing and i decided it was time to step up my game, so i picked up some Wet N' Wild Mega Liner Liquid Eyeliner in black of course, they did have an electric blue but I know I am not ready for that just yet haha.

Wet N' Wild Mega Liner Liquid Eyeliner

I honestly thought this was a felt tip applicator, as I feel that would have been an easier transition for me from a gel liner, but when I got home and opened the bottle, I find out it is a felt tip that acts very much like a fine brush tip. Dont get me wrong, this didn't discourage me, but I know I have to be extra careful when using this product.

It goes on very wet, so there is room for error, but it dries matte which is a big plus for me, I love my mattes!

I also noticed that after I swatched my hand around 10 -15 minutes later, after it looked dry I swiped the swatch and it moved creating a smear. So I know I will have to set this with a black eye shadow. 

I did like that it did not flake or give me those snake scales I usually get from liquid liners. 

This is new to me, so I will see how it does, wish me luck!
