New Haul!!!

So I planned not to get ANYTHING after my latest haul, but that kind of failed miserably! My Sephora Favorites Collection (review is coming really soon!!!) has a free 60 minute consultation with their makeup artists for any type of look that you want which I took advantage of a few days ago. Unfortunately, once I'm in the store, there is no resisting the many temptations!! I also FINALLY received a few things in the mail that I ordered ages ago!!




* After waiting about a month, I got my first Julip box- for those who don't know, it's a monthly program where you get different nail and hand care items.
* Too Faced Sweet Dreams palette
* A Babyliss flatiron
* Some nail dotting tools
* The Tarte holiday set of 5 lip pencils
* Nars lipgloss in Orgasm
* Eos lipbalm
* Elf brow gel
* Sephora Professionals smudge brush

So there will be several reviews coming soon!!!

Theatre of the Nameless

The first time I saw an Illamasqua campaign, I instantly fell in love with them. They are crazy and over the top, but still manage to look amazing! This is one of the looks from their newest campaign Theatre of the Nameless, that inspired me the most:


 I wanted to do something that was loosely based on the picture, but not quite as crazy. (Disclaimer: This look is for fun; I would not wear it out!!!!)









For the face, I used:
-Smashbox Photo Finish Primer
-CoverGirl Foundation in Ivory 205
-Mary Kay Mineral Foundation in Ivory .5
-Kat Von D Tattoo Concealer
-Stila Blush in Art Deco under the cheekbones
-Too Faced Pink Cheeks as highlight

Eyes:
-Urban Decay Primer Potion
-Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sin
-Clinique Cream Liner in True Black
-Sephora Lashes
-Tarte Gifted Mascara

Eyebrows:
-ELF Brow Gel
-Mally Eyeliner in black to draw brows

Lips:
-OCC Lip Tar in Pageant
-Mally Eyeliner in black to trace around lips

It's kind of a shame that as much as I LOVE Illamasqua campaigns, I have never actually used their products!!! But I plan on trying them out soon. Hope you enjoy the look!
