Nu-di-ty

Yes, today I am naked faced. Sorry, I know how much you look forward to my gratuitous self-photography and near endless lists of beauty products, but today was spent baking and moving furniture in preparation for H. Irene.

As of yet, she hasn't hit us, but we're expecting her at any moment. In fact, as I type, the power is flickering. It's already gone for nearly 50,000 people in the area.

Please keep those families that have been affected by the storm. <3

She's a Man Eater...

Who rocks the the purple! Today's entire look was brought to you by Rock-A-Betty Beauty. Color wise, anyway. I love, love, love this company. She was forced to reformulate, and rather than offer colors that were only close to her old line, she decided to release an entirely new line. Since I've only got one or two colors from it and none of them are what I needed, all the colors on my face today are discontinued. Still, they are incredible!

On to the makeups!

Greener on the Other Side...

We're in the midst of preparing for Hurricane Irene. Everything is very, very gray today. Our designated Color Picker, That Foxy Finn, suggested greens; "Moss and birch leaves." I messed up on the right eye, though the left turned out exactly how I imagined.

Burn It Down

I feel I should mention that the past few days, my makeup colors have been chosen by an incredibly foxy Finn named Quinn (see what I did there? Huh? Didja?). She's doing a great job. I've done some looks I really, really like.

Now, onto the makeup!

Back on the bandwagon

I let these things slide. My bad. I'll definitely be making more of an effort with this. I know that there's a glut of makeup blogs around, but I'm hoping that you won't mind just one more.

To get things back on track, I'll just be offering Faces of the Day and maybe some swatches. I'll still do small reviews on my favorite products, but I haven't quite figured out a formula that I like for that. So, on to the makeup!

Let's go over the products, first.
