Pink Smokey look + Glitter liner using Aromaleigh

This look is from Thursday. I did try to cover up the splotches that time. I think it made them more noticeable, especially the left corner of my mouth. Ew. This morning my skin is particularly worse. Kind of feels like I'm wearing a dry mud mask. I think you know the feeling. I'm going to go to Sally's and see about getting some sort of moisture mask. I also need to get more hair dye and developer as the HUGE 32 ounce bottle I've had forever, is almost out. Never thought I would use it all but its time is almost up. Speaking of hair dye, I only dye my roots to keep my hair healthy. With my hair getting longer and harder to just dye the roots, I searched the internet for something to make the dye process easier. I found the KwikRoot bottle. This thing great! I used it Thursday night and it took less than 5 minutes for me to apply it. Check it out here: http://www.kwikroot.com/index.html
Now onto the makeup!

Yellow, Lime and Violet + Glitter Liner look using My Stuff

These eyeshadow colours I made forever ago with my TKB micas, glitters and sparks. The yellow one is basically Lemon POP with a butt ton of added sparkles, while the rest are blends I made with various micas and added sparks for more sparkles. Nothing super spectacular, but I love the POP collection and wanted something similar but with much more sparkle, so I made these. :-D
The glitter liner I made using black glitter with a hint of holographic glitter mixed in. I mixed it with Sally Girl Glitter Glue Gel and applied it with the MAC 210 brush. Just remember that because it is glitter, it won't always go on very sleek and precise. It applied fairly well for me, just takes some mixing to get the right consistency for using as a liner. If there's not enough glitter, it goes on too light, if there is too much glitter in the gel, it goes on super cakey and becomes hard to work with. So if you want to try the glitter glue with glitter to line, it may take a while to get it how you like it. I'm pleased with mine and plan on using this a lot with all the weird glitter combos I have already made. Hello Rainbow Vomit glitter liner! Hee hee!
I think my skin hates me right now. My psoriasis has flared up a bit. It's not terrible looking compared to what is has been or could be, but it's still quite uncomfortable. You can only see it a little bit in the pics (small pink/red splotches). It's dry, itchy and flaky mostly around my mouth, nose and cheeks. I did not care to cover them up with concealer or photoshop them out. Too lazy and don't have time for that right now anyway. So bare with me please!
Oh! And I'm finally wearing my Azalea Blue lipstick. So awesome! All pics are done with flash.

This is sooo much more sparkly in person!!!

Last night was weird but fun!

We went dancing with some friends last night. It was fun. But like I said, it was weird. There are always some weirdo people at clubs no matter when or where you go. I wore more clothes than I normally do when going dancing, and I wore my hair down, which I almost never do when dancing. I had more dudes staring and hitting on me than I have in a while. No, I am NOT bragging. It's nice once in a while, but when you just want to have a good time with your husband and friends, it can be more than annoying. "Some guy" was staring at me all night. He wasn't even trying to be discrete about it like most people would be. My friend Nicole was like, "OMG, why is that guy staring at you like that?!".  Dude, I dunno. But it was kind of creepy in a funny way. He would stand about 4-5 feet away from me and turn and stare at me for a few seconds, then turn away. He kept doing it over and over. He never said anything to me, but he looked like he wanted to. You know what I mean.
 Again, no, I'm not bragging or trying to say, "damn, I'm so hot that this guy was staring at me all night."  I'm not even sure that is why he was staring. But if he was, I'm saying it's normal for a guy to look at a gal, think she is attractive and admire her. But don't stare like a creepo so much that all her friends notice and say WTF? Jason, myself and all our friends knew what he was doing. So it was weird and a little awkward. If you want to say something, just do it! I won't bite...hard.
Anyway! Here are a few photos we managed to get of the night. We didn't take as many as we usually do because "that guy" was around a lot.
Peek a boo! I have lipgloss on my chin from eating a burrito...why didn't anyone tell me?! Maybe that is why "that guy" was staring at me. He just wanted to tell me to fix it! Hee hee.

Mike looking scary. I must have been licking my lips...

I'm sure the guy in the grey shirt thought I was taking pictures of him. I was actually taking pictures of the guy wearing the red & black shirt with white socks and shoes. He looks like somebody's Dad. Like he shouldn't have been there. But he was totally dancing and getting into it. Was great! I wasn't making fun of him, I thought it was awesome he was dancing!
