First Eye Look: Urban Decay Electric Palette

Hello my MJF stars,
If you follow me on IG you know that I posted that I did a an eye look with the Urban Decay Electric Palette so lets get into this eye look I created.


Products I used:
Jordana Eyeshadow base eye primer 
Urban Decay Electric Palette:
Jilted: Crease and bottom lash
Urban: lid, into crease and bottom lash
NYX Glitter Primer: center eyelid
Tarte Make believe in yourself eye & cheek palette:
Fairy: center of eyelid
Wet N Wild single eyeshadow Brulee: brow bone 
L.A. Colors Grafix eyeliner Black 
Covergirl Lashblast Fusion Mascara Black

When I saw eyeshadow Urban I had to put it all over my eyelid. I used Jilted in crease and to blend out the edge of Urban. I also used Fairy from the Tarte Make Believe in yourself palette on the center of my eyelid to give a more shimmer pop. I really love the purple and pink combo which reminds of Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland. I really love how this eye look came out and can't wait to do another eye look with the Urban Decay palette.

Products I used:
Revlon Colorstay Base 
Fresh Paint Firefly Sunset
Milani Diamond Dazzle 
Jordana Quick Shine Topcoat 

I have been wanting to wear the mood nail polish since I got them. So I put on Firefly Sunset which is a pink that turns into a purple when cold. I wish it was purple that turn pink because I like the purple more than the pink. But I still really like both colors. I then put some glitter on top so I put Diamond Dazzle which I think look really nice together. I like how this mani came out and I really liking the mood polish. I can't wait to wear the other one I got from Five and below.

I hope you enjoyed this week mani.

Italian Leather Mani

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here with another mani for Manicure Mondays. So lets see what I wore on my nails this time.

Inside lighting with flash

Outside lighting with flash

Products I used:
Revlon Colorstay Base Coat 
Revlon Parfumerie Italian Leather
Jordana Quick Shine Topcoat 

I been wanting to wear a dark gray polish for a while now so I dug around and found Italian leather which is dark brown tone gray with gold shimmer in it. I thought it might look pretty on the nails since it a fall/winter color. It has a really good formula but I wish the shimmer was like it was looking in the bottle. Also I was not able to get the shimmer in the pictures which is a bummer. Its way prettier in person. If you don't like perfume nail polish you will not like this one its pretty strong but it does not bug me. I kinda like the smell. I think this color is perfect for fall/ winter and for woman that don't want something bright to wear in a office setting. I will be wearing this nail polish again but may be with a glitter topper.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani and Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Fourth Eye Look: Tarte Make Believe in Yourself Palette

Hello my MJF stars,
I have another eye look using Tarte Make believe in yourself palette that I love. So let's get into what I created this time.


Products I used:
Nyc City proof 24hr eye primer
NYX jumbo eye pencil cottage cheese

Believe: center eyelid and lower lash
Crystal: inner, outer v eyelid, crease and lower lash
Wet N Wild Color Icon single eyeshadow Brulee: Brow Bone

I thought I would do a halo eye look since I have not done one in a while. I used cottage cheese as a base for Believe to stick to and so it would show up since its a highlighter and its sheer. I put Crystal in crease and inner outer v of the eyelid. I used Brulee on my brow bone and to blend out edges of Crystal. I really like how this eye look came out. I can't wait to create another eye look with this palette.

Products I used:
Revlon Colorstay base coat
Revlon Moonlit Woods
Kleancolor 5 Black
Milani Quick Dry Top Coat

As you can see I did another squish mani. This time I used Moonlit woods which is a silvery purple color with Black. I really like how this mani came out. I really like Moonlit woods its a unique color in that its a pretty metallic purple that I don't have anything in my collection like it. Its also scented which does not matter to me. If you don't scented polishes than this one is not for you. If you don't care about scents then you should pick up this polish.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani for Manicure Mondays.

Second eye look: Nyx Happy Birthday palette

Hello my MJF stars,
I have another eye look using the NYX Happy Birthday palette to share with you.



ProductsI used:

Since the NYX palette has a lot of colors that remind me of fall/ winter. I decidedto do a fall type of look. I used #3 in crease and outer v which is a pretty color. I put #1 on eye lid which a pretty shimmery cream color. I used #10 blend out edges of #3. I then put #6 to deepen the outer v. I really loved how this eye look came out. It says fall to me and I would not just wear in fall. I would wear it any time.

I hope you enjoyed seeing this eye look.

I'm back with another mani for Manicure Mondays. I decided to do another squish mani so lets see what I created this time.

inside lighting with flash
Products I used:
Milani Base Coat 
China Glaze Gothic Lolita 
Wet N Wild Fast Dry Ebony Hates Chris
Jordana Quick Dry Topcoat

I love Gothic Lolita from China Glaze which is my favorite polishes I own from China Glaze. If you have not notice that I do wear it a lot. I thought it would be a perfect with a black polish so I used Ebony Hates Chris from Wet N Wild. This combo reminds me the Haunted Mansion wall paper that is purple and black. I really loved how this mani came out and was bummed that I forgot to take more pictures of it in the sun light. I probably will wear this combo again because I was so bummed to remove it.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani.

Third Halloween Eye Look: Ariel Costume

Hello MJF stars,
I'm here to show you my last Halloween Eye look and costume. I'm so sad Halloween is over because I had so much fun doing Halloween eye looks and wearing cool wigs. This year I was Ariel (The Little Mermaid). I always wanted to be Ariel and finally I dressed up as her on Halloween.  So lets get into how I created this look.


Eyes:
Jordana Eyeshadow base eye primer 
NYX glitter primer: lid
Tarte make believe in yourself eye & cheek palette
Myth: crease
Crystal: lid
Wet N Wild single eyeshadow Brulee: brow bone 
Makeup Revolution Ghost Lights Vivid Baked Highlighter: inner corner eyelid
L.A Colors Grafix eyeliner Black 
Rimmel london soft kohl eyeliner pencil pure white
Covergirl lashblast volume mascara Very Black 
Eylure volume n°101

For Ariel eye look I thought I would a neutral eye look with some shimmer. So I used Tarte Make Believe in yourself palette since I love that palette and thought it would work for what I was thinking of for the eye look. I used Myth in the crease to deepen with out glitter. I used NYX glitter primer on the lid to get the most glitter to stay on the lid and made the glitter pop even more than just on the primer. I put Ghost lights in the inner corner of the lid to open my eye even more. I put the pure white eyeliner on the water line to give a more cartoon look. I did a wing like always and put some lashes that look like something Ariel would wear.

Closeup of full face makeup



Face: 
Rimmel Lasting Finish Foundation 100 ivory
L.A Girl Pro Conceal Classic Ivory
Wet N Wild  Photofocus Pressed Powder Neutral Beige
Makeup Revolution Ghost Lights Vivid Baked Highlighter 
Makeup Revolution Contour Palette
Tarte Amazonian clay 12 hour blush paaarty 

Lips: Jemma Kidd classic lip colour lipstick 07 Siren



Costume: 
I wore the Long wavy wig from Walmart which I think is a perfect Ariel hair. I bought this tank top from Walmart on sale and I posted it on blog. I printed out picture of Ariel seashell bra and drew it little bit bigger on some felt that I cut out to make it the right size. I used double sided tape and taped it on my tank top. I wore some Green Mermaid leggings from Amazon which was about $12. I wore flip flops since I did not have any mermaid looking shoes. It was little cold for a tank top so I had wear a sweater as you can see. I did not have time to take a better picture of my costume but I think you can see it in this pic. I think my costume came out to be around $28 which is not to bad. I will probably use the wig and leggings again for a different costume.

I think my costume came out pretty good. I wish I had more time because I wanted to decorate the felt but ran out of time. I might have to be Ariel next year too lol probably not but I'm happy how my costume came out.

I hope you had a great Halloween. Also let me know what you dress up as? because I would love to hear from my MJF stars.

Spirit Halloween Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,
I don't have video of these hauls but still want to show since today I stoped at my Spirit Halloween store and its the last day it will be open. So every thing was 50% off. Also I wanted to show you what I bought before it was 50% off so lets get into what I got.


I went with a friend before halloween and gave into buying this Hocus Pocus Fleece Throw that I saw last time and did not buy. But I have been thinking about it. So I got it and it was $24.99 with 20% off it was $19.99.


Like I said I was out doing some errands remembered that Spirit Halloween was having 50% off all items so I had to go in to see what was left. I found one Harry Potter Deluxe Wand that lights up and makes 3 different sound so I had to get it. It was $12.99 and now $6.49. I also found a Harry Potter Gryffindor Head band that was $7.99 and now $3.99. I picked up the Bat ears that I was eyeing last time. It was $5.99 and now $2.99. I saw they had one of the Hocus Pocus sign that I thought was cute and had to have it. It was $12.99 and now $6.49. I'm going to live it out all year because its too cute to put away.  The last thing I got was the cute spider web headband which I also saw last time and thought it was cute and would wear it all year. I figured for 50% off I had to get it. It was $4.99 and now $2.49.

I'm so happy that I waited for these items. I hope you enjoyed seeing what I got. Also run to your Spirit Halloween Store before they are gone for these good deals.
