I'm back! EOTD's from this last week

Hey everyone! I'm back from St Louis, and my family got a new computer so I can finally blog again, thank goodness. I'm still thinking I'd like my own laptop, though. I have contacted the giveaway winners and gotten their addresses. Thanks to everyone who entered!
Here are some looks I did last week, I'll try my best to remember what shadows I used.
Hi Fi Labyrinth EOTD
Slime & Snails (inner lid)
Magic Spell (outer lid)
Lost & Lonely (crease)
Mornings of Gold (highlight)
Soft Purple Look
Wonderland, by Sassy Minerals (inner lid)
Kismet, by Concrete Minerals (outer lid)
Ephemeral Violet, by Aromaleigh (crease)
Eat Me, Drink Me, by Hi Fi (highlight)
LADY GAGA concert look with the Sleek Acid Palette
The night I saw Lady Gaga was probably the best night of my life. I don't know if you know this, but I WORSHIP her. It was amazing to see her live. So many people were dressed up in the craziest, awesomest Lady Gaga costumes you could ever imagine. The Westboro Baptist Church was there before I got there. Regardless of your beliefs, I think we can all agree they are horrible people. Even though they decided to bring that hate, all of us little monsters had so much love for each other, it was so unifying. Honestly, if you can't accept other people's differences, fuck you :) I also liked the opening band, Semi Precious Weapons. I guess they are considered glam rock? I don't know, but I'm gonna order the cd off of Amazon.
I have tons of swatches to do for you guys, a review, and I have to tell you all about my very first Sephora experience. Thanks for sticking with me while the computer was busted! See you tomorrow ;]

Sleek Acid palette EOTD

I used NYX jumbo eye pencil in Cottage Cheese as a base. I love this look, even though apparently I got makeup in my contacts, on top of my mascara, and my eye looks like it has bubbles in the one picture... I think it was the eye pencil *_* My last day of high school is in 7 hours! YAAAAAY! Now I will actually have time to do FOTDs every day to show you guys :) I have so many swatches I have been meaning to do too, but it has been cloudy and rainy here every day. Once it's nice again I will have lovely pictures for you!

2 Looks with the Sleek Acid Palette

I have had so much fun trying this stuff out the last 2 days... I have no doubt I will go to it for my makeup tomorrow morning too. I love these shadows, they are so soft and creamy feeling, and so damn pigmented! I haven't even tried the eye burning neons yet! Me wants more Sleek palettes @_@ I am so loving pressed shadows right now. In the first look I am also wearing NYX lipstick in Georgia (the only good color for me of the 4 I've bought), Twilight I blush by I Touch Roses, Covergirl eyeliner in brown black, and mark Scanda-lash mascara. Revlon ColorStay underye concealer & PhotoReady Translucent Finishing Powder. It's nothing super exciting, but I wanted more toned down makeup than the bright ass melon look I did the other day (the last look from my previous post). I did silver on the ball of my lid, and used the really metallic blue for the inner lid, and the darker blue for the outer lid. It looks like the same blue in the picture, but it's not. I also used silver under my waterline, but only part way. This next one was something I did today, over NYX jumbo pencil in Cottage Cheese as a base. I thought "Oh, those two colors will look nice together", but they look WAY better than I even expected! I kept looking into the mirror at my eyes when I was hanging out with my boyfriend. We watched Are You Afraid of the Dark! This post of Blix's reminded me my DVD set of it has been sitting untouched for quite a while. Oh the nostalgia! I used a Milani Powder Mosaic in Sweet Cheeks, L'Oreal Collegen Mascara, Fyrinnae's Pink Guitar lip lustre, and Too Faced sparkler gloss over that in Violet Vapor. Revlon ColorStay underye concealer & PhotoReady Translucent Finishing Powder. I love this palette! And I love blush now you guys! I never used it before blogging. ;] I haven't done an HKOTD in a while, so here ya go. My big kitty and my little kitty ^_^ That picture understates how huge that Hello Kitty is... exhibit B. I'm sitting. I have a million cute pictures of my kitty. I know there's a lot of cat fans out there, would you be interested in a post of some kitty pictures? Answer honestly cus I don't want to spend time resizing them all if you're gonna be like "Omg get on with the makeup already you crazy cat lady weirdo..." :P Ps Rachel, I ate the chocolate bar today while watching a movie ^_^ So yummy!

Some simple EOTD's

Hello ladies! I hope you're having a super weekend. I worked a 6.5 hour shift at the old Arby's today, so my feet hurt. I'm leaving soon to go see Alice in Wonderland with my boyfriend and some friends. In other news, Rachel sent me the Sleek Acid palette! OMG you can't even imagine how insane some of the colors are until you see them irl. I am so excited to get this as it's not available (to my knowledge) in the US. Swatches soon, thank you so much Rachel! I also have some new Fyrinnae and Detrivore swatches to share, as well as my Stardust review, and my swatches of all my NYX products! Gonna be a busy blogging week :P Here are some looks I've done over the week. I didn't give any of them their own post because they were pretty quick and sample. Note, I am apparently so uncreative I realized all these looks were inspired by other posters! At this point I can't remember every product I used, but I do have all the eyeshadows for each look. I'll give you what I can recall! All of these use Revlon ColorStay underye concealer, Revlon PhotoReady Translucent Finisher, Covergirl eyeliner on the waterline in brown black, and Max Faxtor 2000 Calorie Extreme mascara (my HG mascara... I'm running out, damn Max Factor) What I used: some white jane color (inner lid) Royal Kiss, by Stardust (center lid) Pure Femme, by Stardust (outer lid) Lying Mirrors, by The She Space (crease) A Bit Naughty, by The She Space (under waterline) Honeysuckle by L.A. Colors (highlight) mark blush in After Glo Pretty unimpressive, and similar to a lot of old looks. The purples I chose were all too similar. This was my inspiration, just because of the white on the inner lid. Hers turned out beautiful vibrant though, and mine was dull. Bleh. What I used: Coney Island, by Aromaleigh (lid) Isolde, by Morgana Minerals (crease- I have been using this for creases a lot lately) Lewd, by Detrivore (highlight) Rimmel Mousse Blush in Frozen Cherry Does this not totally remind you of a caramel apple? I actually like this look quite a bit, it was visually interesting (to me at least), and also simple and quick. Not as good as the original though! What I used: Harken, by Morgana Minerals (lid) She Creature, by Morgana (crease) Coraline, by Morgana (highlight) Ouch looking at that last picture I see a did a pretty bad job applying the color... I was rushed! I keep being almost late for work cus I'd rather play with makeup. This looked better IRl, I only used a little of Coraline and blended it all around so it would be pale-ish. I used the POS for this so everything looks more orange/yellow than it actually is. Also, I'm wearing my uniform. Also, I hate showing pictures when my hair is up, except, apparently, when I'm glancing down. I like all those ones. :P When I saw this look of Phyrra's this morning, I wanted to do a similar color scheme. I think that's everything for now, I have to touch up my makeup really quick before Alice! I am seeing it in 2D, because I think 3D is a gimmick and I try to avoid it and just see the 2D versions of things. Also because this movie was not "made" in 3D, if you understand me, they just kind of added crap in after it was done, so apparently the 3D is pretty lame. I don't care cus it's saving me $2 not see it that way. I'll let you know what I think!
