i'm not dead

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. A 'black wave' hit me. I might not have been dead, but I sure was wishing I was.

ANYWAYS.

Here's a look I did the other day.

face-
same old
Pinch 'O Peach blush

eyes-
concealer as base
Dazzlelight
Soft Brown
Solar White
W&W cream liner

lips-
UD Midnight Cowboy l/l
Viva Glam I





I dyed my hair last week. I hate it. :(


Yesterday's NOTD.

OPI Russian Navy suede
I LOVEEEE this np. I thought it was going to make my hands look disgusting, but it didn't! This is 2 coats. I found the formula easy to work with... I don't know what all this talk is about the suede's horrible formula. Both of the suedes that I own are easy to apply. I love how they look, too!

Today's NOTD.

China Glaze Rainbow
This is 3 coats. I bought this bcause at Sally's they had a deal where if you buy Seche Vite you get a free ChG polish. I could NOT pass that up. I had a hard time deciding between this and Frostbite... I decided on Rainbow because it looked slightly similar to ChG Afterglow (which I majorly lemmed after Scrangie's post) but they're not that similar. I wish I bought Frostbite. Sigh.

Thanks for looking!

  1. Hey Clara, you look gorgeous with red lipstick. You should def wear it more. I'm sorry you haven't been feeling well. Hope whatever it is, you will be better soon :)

    I agree on the suede formula, I've got two and they apply like a dream. Oh, and Forstbite is my hubby's fave nail polish on me, lol!

  16. Thanks everyone!
    Caro, what a thoughtful thing to say :)

    BeautyPsycho- I first used L'oreal Feria in Iridiscent Blonde, but hated it, so washed with baby shampoo which stripped out some of the color.. and then I used Clairol Natural Instincts in Brass-Free Light Brown, which altered the color ever so slightly. Lol, it sure is complicated, but I HTH. :)

  17. I love your hair actually!! It'll grow on you, hopefully. ^_^ I just dyed my hair black today. It's kinda intense and makes me look more pale but hopefully I'm like it more later on. Lovely FOTD and NOTDs. You always look pretty!
