FOTD / EOTD: Miss Cinderfella Black (My Smokey Eye)

I just need not post until I get myself a new camera.  Talk about frustrated.  I am very frustrated with my little Sony.  It used to be so good to me, but it’s starting to fail on me.   That’s another story, but I will be getting a new one shortly.

Also, you all will want to disregard that breakout on my forehead.  I really don’t know what that’s about, but it’s so annoying.

Anyhoo, here is my FOTD of the day …as if you can really see what’s going on…dumb camera.  I was going for a vamp type of look with the bright highlights I got going on which equals my classic smokey eye.  I hope I was able to pull it off.  I saw Edward, in the movie Twilight New Moon Saga, had a dark purple contour going on in the hollows of his cheeks so I decided to put purple blush on my cheeks to keep things dull.   I calls it Miss Cinderfella Black (sounds like a ghetto fabulous name right? lol) because I used MAC’s Greasepaint Stick in Black and I also used their mineralized eyeshadow in Cinderfella to do this look.  Since I was going dark in my eyes I wanted a light lip so I went bright pink.  Here are my pics!

Haulage Before My Last Haul

Not sure what’s up with me, but I’m forgetting to post hauls.  I went on a drugstore / MAC haul maybe a week ago…a day before the haul I posted last.  Ha!  I also got a new Sonia Kashuk Fluffy Eyeshadow brush I forgot to post about as well and I love it.  I won’t post a pic of this because I just bought it one day.  OMG! This reminds me of the Studio Tools medium eyeshadow brush I picked up too.  LOL!  OK so I got two brushes from Target that I am not going to post about, but I’m letting you know that I have them and that I love the Sonia Kashuk brushes better than my one Studio Tools brush.  I honestly haven’t used my Studio Tools medium eyeshadow brush enough yet so I haven’t learned to love it.  I will let you know!  Price: $4.99 (Sonia) and $2.00 (Studio Tools)

OK…moving on!

I was out of eye makeup remover (what a tradegy when you don’t have any and you have to remove your makeup!) so I decided on Clean & Clear Eye Makeup Remover because 1.  I was at Walgreens so I couldn’t get the Target brand ha!, and 2. it was cheaper that Neutrogena Eye Makeup Remover by 2 bucks.  It works just like the Target Eye Makeup Remover brand. *shrugs*.  Price: $6.00

Walgreens had Maybelline products as a buy one get one half off so I decided on mascara.  I always wanted to try Colossal and Lash Stiletto mascaras so this was almost a good time (I like BOGO better, but oh well).  I’m in love with Colossal and will pass on the overrated Lash Stilletto because it’s just plain sloppy.  It’s not as sloppy as Rimmel, but it’s sloppy.  Colossal rates higher than the overly overly over rated CoverGirl Lash Blast mascara (which I have but don’t use anymore).  Price: sorry…I forgot what I paid, but it wasn’t much.

I was tired of wasting my MAC Studio Fix Fluid because I was pouring too much out.  Once I pour product on my hand, I do not put it back into the container do product is wasted.  So, to remedy the problem I went to get a foundation pump.  While I was there I thought I’d give that MAC Kohl Power Pencil in Feline, a repromote, from the Style Black collection a try.  I was reading on Specktra that it is the blackest black eye liner MAC has.  I love it.  I’ve been using it everyday since I got it and I will go back to get a back up because I love it so much.  Price: $5.00 (pump) and $14.50 (eye pencil)
