Colourful look using Morgana Minerals

Meh meh bleh bleh bleh. That's how I feel right now. Sooo tired and just wishing I could stop blowing my nose. I physically feel OK, besides being tired. So I at least don't feel sick like I did a few days ago. I've gone through a box and a half of tissues and a whole roll of TP. This is getting really old! Go away you evil cold!
Anyway, here's the makeup. Oh and Phyrra, you jinxed me! I couldn't find my Azalea Blue lipstick (or the lip liner I use with it) so I used a NYX lipstick instead...I still don't know where it is. :-(  I hope I didn't lose it.

Red and Maroon look using Morgana Minerals

This look is from yesterday. I didn't have time to post it so I am now. I'm feeling more like myself...but I still have to blow my nose quite a bit. How can there be so much crud in my head?! It's gross!
The sun decided to hide ALL DAY yesterday so I had to take pics with flash.
I woke up this morning to several inches of snow. WTF? This Colorado weather is soooo weird! It was warm just a couple days ago!
Wow I look pissed.

Green and Blue Glitter look using Aromaleigh

The weather is so nice today and everything is sooo green and alive now. So I went with a spring look. I feel sooo much better today too. Still trying to take it easy though. My eyes look a bit pink and watery. Hopefully that will go away soon. I think I'm near the end of this EVIL cold.



So I'm a dork and threw the next one in cuz I look nakey! Hee hee!

Soft, shimmery look with Aromaleigh

So as of this morning I'm still feeling like crap. My landlady called yesterday...I answered and she thought I was my husband! Ha!  So you know I must sound really gross.
 I have been stuck in the house all week and need to run errands today.  I did this look before 8 am on a Saturday morning! I know I should be sleeping in to get more rest, but I can't because my body is busy trying to make me cough up my lungs! Might as well get me arse out of bed and do something. I figured I'd do a makeup look since I haven't in over a week. Plus I sorta did my hair...looks OK from the front but the back...well you won't be seeing it!
 There was no thought put into this look. I just knew I wanted to use the new shtuff I got from Aromaleigh and wanted something softer as it is so early. If you have not tried the Jumbo Buffer brush from Aromaleigh, you need to! That thing is so soft, dense and applies my powder foundation so much better. I'm annoyed that I didn't get it a long time ago. It makes my other real animal hair brushes feel like total crap. I will be getting the other faux brushes for sure.
 Anyway, here's the look. I don't look sick at all! Awesome! However, I did have to stop for a few minutes in between some picture taking for a "coughing fit". You know what I mean. Where you start coughing and it just keeps going and going until your face turns red, your eyes start watering and you feel like you can't get air in for the next cough. Yeah, that was fun...NOT!

So who has plans for the weekend? I plan on catching up on reading and commenting on your blogs! That and sitting on my butt while drinking lotsa hot tea. My throat hates me right now.  :-(

Bleh...I'm sick...

 I feel like I'm dying. I probably won't post for a while unless I randomly get better. But feeling as crappy as I do right now, I don't see that happening soon. I have a bad head cold. The sinus pain is totally kicking me arse. My eyes are swollen, watery, itchy and red. I keep coughing and sneezing like crazy. I think I only got like 3 hours of sleep last night due to this nonsense. Let's not forget this annoying nasal drippage coming out of my right nostril that can only stopped by shoving tons of tissues up my nose. I'm too sick to work and I'm too sick to sleep. I just can't get any rest. Would someone like to trade bodies with me?
 I was planning on doing a makeup look today but I don't feel like it and I think it wouldn't turn out well anyway. Instead, I will just look at your posts. :-)


I hope you all are having a good week.

Spy Theme Party Pics

There aren't as many pics as I was hoping to get. But many people didn't dress up for the theme anyway. I didn't get any good pics of the Birthday boy and his wife, which I was wanting the most!!! I couldn't find my camera half the time so I missed some fun things. Dang it! So annoying how that happens sometimes.
Yep, I was Aeon Flux. Some people figured it out but some people didn't even know what Aeon Flux was. Which is just wrong! You can't get this costume anywhere. I just through a bunch of random things together that seemed to work. I'm not nearly as scrawny or busty as the real Aeon...but she is a cartoon after all. I swear if someone calls me Lara Croft one more time I will freak out!

Dimitri and his wife Emily, were tourists (spies) sporting touristy clothing, sunglasses, a backpack and a camera. I thought that was a decent spy outfit as that's a common disguise for spies.

Miah and his girlyfriend Erin.

Ryan!

People hanging out around the bar

More people standing around the bar

Dimitri texting and hanging out with his wife, Emily

flash doesn't work well with the fog machine going...

Jason, Ryan and me

My turn to make a face...

then we all made faces

Jason DJing...and pooping his pants perhaps?

Jason and me. I look pissed as usual! Where'd my glove go?

It was a fun night but I wish I got better pictures and more pictures in general to share with you. Other people had cameras so if I get more pics from them, I may have to post 'em!
I hope the rest of your weekend goes well. I have work to do, but I may have time for a makeup post later!

Golden, Pink and Purple-ish look using Fyrinnae

This look is from yesterday. I don't really like how this turned out as the colour of Mephisto totally changed when I applied it. So I feel like it doesn't look right and the colours don't go together. On top of that, it made my lids burn a bit. WTF?  I wasn't going to post this because I felt 'meh' about it, then decided to anyway.
Still working a lot today. But tonight we are going to a Birthday Party with a Spy costume theme. Jason is DJing there but doesn't know what he'll dress up as yet. I'm going to be the ultra hot, scantily-clad, Monican Secret Agent, who sabotages and assassinates while running around doing wild acrobatics. Which will require minimal makeup...and clothing. Do you know who that is? Let's see who can figure it out. :-D
