Holiday Greens

Merry Christmas!!! Here's a holiday look to rock at a Christmas party =). Have FuN!!!

Christmas Is Coming!!!

So, being married, I know that sometimes our husbands need a little help with what we may want. I know sometimes my hubby gets this panicked look near Christmas Eve and asks for some "alone" time. Out he whisks to the store, frantically calling my mother and all of my friends. I think he's learned, somewhat, that to start earlier in the month is goooooooood....say it with me hunny....gooooooooood!!!! For basic makeup needs I enlisted that same darling husband to help design this Christmas list. These are things that I would ask for if I were just starting out. You can click on the list and print it out and give it to your someone or buy it yourself, be powerful =). It comes out somewhat small so it can be travel size. If you have any questions on what to get from MAC or Sephora please ask. I could go on forever of what to get and what NOT to spend money on! Merry Christmas!!! 

1920's Goth

Demi #2

LoVeD doing this look!!!! I spray tanned....not that you can tell with my lovely computer, and wa able to bust out my NW 25!!!! It made me so happy =). I want a "perma-tan" like NObodies business!!! Have you guys found black and white pictures to send? Remember to comment and tell me what yo think =).

Demi Lovato

Love this red carpet look of Demi's. Hope you love it!!! Wish my camera could pick up colors the way I want it to =(.

J-Lo/Warm Browns and Golds

LOVE this look!!! It makes me want to grab hot cocoa, my hunny and sit by the fire. It just seemed like an understate sexy look. Made me feel pretty darn cute too when my hubby couldn't stop looking at me, hugging or wanting to cuddle....YAY I MAY STILL HAVE IT LADIES!!!!!!! LOL

Katy Perry #2

Lauren Conrad Tutorial

So glad that I was FiNaLlY able to get to this request. (Singing voice) I looooovvvveeee Lauren Conraaaaad!!!!!! I think she is so stinkin cute and very down to Earth. Her makeup is very simple but the liner can sometimes be tricky and just comes with practice. I'll do another one that isn't so typical of her that I've found. Meaning her makeup wasn't just natural with winged liner...cooomin up!

Sally the Rag Doll

Sally the Rag Doll from Tim Burton's the Nightmare Before Christmas is a fav of mine for Halloween. I love the look and the costume is just as fun! Here is my spin on the look and an option for you this Halloween. Our third annual Halloween Contest is coming up soon!!!

Smokey Eye Request

Shelby, you have been SO patient and I appreciate it. I get so many requests and I get to them all as soon as I can. They are all so gorgeous!!! Thanks for all of the requests and keep them coming. You can now find me starting my boards on Pinterest under Classy Cosmetics =).

P.S. Do you have the Instagram app for your phone? I {heart} it in a major way! You can do this kind of effect with pictures taken with your phone. My husband does such a great job that I am trying to hire him to do ALL of my photos on the blog ;).

Elizabeth Taylor Tribute

 Elizabeth Taylor was such an icon. In the movies she was on point and direct and with makeup (in her earlier years) I felt she was one of the greats! I felt it was time I did a tribute to the look and feel of this Hollywood starlet. Here is my take on her look in general, not from any one picture but I thought I'd put up a few that would demonstrate her rich beauty. I think it took me a while to pay homage to her because for the longest time she left a bad taste in my mouth. She was lovely but unfortunately stole a few husbands in her day. I LOVE Debbie Reynolds and Liz took her hubby = (...look at me talking about them as if I know them! =) Anyway, I loved her look, at least, and wanted to give my interpretation of all the little details that made up Elizabeth's face. I hope you like it!

 Can't you just SEE Camilla Belle playing her in a movie??? It's ridiculous how much alike they look!

Classic, stunning, gorgeous.

Summer Look For Blue Eyes

Naked Pallette

Another J-Lo look but you knew this was coming =). I wanted my first look from this pallette to be her and I LOVE this look but H.A.T.E my camera and how it isn't HD. It doesn't pick up the colors like I would like and I am SO in the market for another!!!

Kim Kardashian Tutorial

This is our third Kim Kardashian look and I love this one just as much as the others. Enjoy!!! =) Keep those requests coming!

Quick Looks Green & Pink

 If you'll notice I have one pink and one green eye. The fun never stops here! Hope everyone is having a fabulous March! I wanted to do more looks utilizing the 88 palette because there really are SO many different combinations. The possibilities are ENDLESS!!! =)

Valentine's Day Looks

Dramatic Look:

 I am hoping that I get these out to you in time and I do apologize for the lateness of them. Here are two different looks for you. One more natural and then one more dramatic. These looks are great too with other colors. The more dramatic one for instance would look great with different shades of spring green!

More Natural Look:

Purple Sunrise (Sariah's Look)

A friend came down to stay with us this weekend and wanted to get new shadows. Being new to the area I had to Map Quest the nearest mall and off we went while the hubbies stayed home with the kiddies. BOY could you tell it was a Saturday. The MAC counter was PaCkEd and leaking out into the walkway to do makeovers. She ended up picking up Fig 1 and Golden Rod, two BeAuTiFuL colors (insert me drooling)!!! She asked me to do a look with them and this is what I came up with. SO much fun!!!
