A Doll and A Dame look Smashing in a Bordello


*Press*
Hello Lovelies,
   I am back with not one but TWO looks from BeautyBarBaby's newest Pinup Collection. I got both the red and the purple based collections and I did a look with each of them. There is also a gorgeous neutral set that I have my eye on but that will have to be for next time. When I hear the world Pinup it just makes me think of the ultimate sexiness and these shadows are NO exception.

And nothing screams sexy like Dita Von Teese.
I essentially started with the red, since I have a weakness for red shadows.

Red is SUPER SEXY




I used the following items for this look:
BeautyBarBaby (BBB) Cream & Sugar
BBB Broad (Pinup Collection)
BBB Doll (Pinup Collection)
BBB Dame (Pinup Collection)
BBB Striptease
BBB Raven
BBB Red Fairy Dust (in the inner corner)
Born Pretty's 15 Piece Pink Brush set (used code KLH10 for a discount)

Then I had to do a purple look since purple is another one of my favorites.....



I used the following items for this look:
BeautyBarBaby (BBB) Miss Daisy
BBB Bordello (Pinup Collection)
BBB Brothel (Pinup Collection)
BBB Cathouse (Pinup Collection)


Do you have a favorite out of the new Pinup Collection that you must have? Or do you need the whole collection like I do? If you are dying to get your hands on the new BeautyBarBaby Pinup Collection you can do so on Etsy. You can follow BeautyBarBaby on Facebook, join their Facebook Fanpage and get first exclusive looks at new products that are coming out, and finally last but not least Instagram and Twitter. Until next time lovelies!

In the Pursuit of Fabulous: Review of Moon Princess Lashes and Flower Powder Brush Kabuki from the Born Pretty Store!

*press sample*
Hello Lovelies!
   I am back again today this time with a review of some awesome goodies from the Born Pretty Store. While I could have sworn that I wrote a blog post up about these before I can't seem to locate it and due to all of the wedding planning chaos the post could have disappeared on the hard drive. Three weekends to go until I can reclaim my sanity and not have to plan any wedding stuff EVER again. I also wanted to upload a video review for both of these items but I am in dire need of a tripod since I CAN'T handle the shaky camera review. It drives me nuts personally so I won't do it. So hopefully soon I will get a tripod and get back to making videos and tutorials again since I miss it. But enough about that, on to the pretties!

   I picked out two items from the Born Pretty Store to review. From the time I placed my order until I got the goodies in my hot little hands was about three weeks which is pretty good considering that this was an international order. I was super thrilled to get some new lashes since some of my pairs where in dire need of replacement. While they are labeled "Moon Princess Fashion Lashes" they are listed on the Born Pretty Site as Handmade False Eyelashes #D-3.   Th

Out of the package

Individual lash! Look at the length and thickness!

  While lashes look great in the package I want to see them on to get a better picture of how they would look on me. So here are some looks done with these gorgeous lashes!



  While these lashes may look super dramatic in the packaging they can be used for everyday wear and with more neutral based looks. They look amazingly  natural and will compliment any look.  They are priced at $8.69 at the Born Pretty Store and while essentially I thought that was expensive for a pair of lashed they are completely worth it. I totally need another pair for the wedding.


 Next, we have the Mini Lovely Floral Powder Blush Brush with Free Cosmetic Bag. which lists on the site as $9.76 which is pretty great for a kabuki brush

     I was concerned that there would be an issue with the floral design of this kabuki with possible streaking and uneven application of blush. However, there was no problem whatsoever. It works wonderfully whether you are applying blush, contouring, applying finishing powder or applying mineral makeup. It is super soft however still firm enough to get the job done. This is my first ever kabuki brush and now I need to have more one! You can pick up this brush, lashes and many more goodies at the Born Pretty Store. Be sure to use the discount code KLH10 for 10% off your order and free shipping! I hope that you enjoyed this review! Until next time lovelies!

Sailor Moon Crystal EOTD: Who is that Masked Man?

*purchased*
Hello Lovelies!
   I am back with the next installment of my Sailor Moon Crystal inspired looks . It seemed like FOREVER before the newest episode, episode two, came out so I wanted to do another look. Because I was like this every single day.

Yup this is me checking Hulu everyday even though it is listed when the next episode comes out.
    So I decided to go back and rewatch the originals. I had finished my binge watching of Orange is the New Black, the newest season of The Glades and now currently the newest season of Lost Girl. (And yes I am a HUGE GOT fan as well) So on nights when Mr Dreadful headed to the garage to tinker on his car, I sat down and happily watched some Classic Sailor Moon. Then I realized that while there were lots and lots of looks for the scouts the certain masked man doesn't have a whole lot of looks dedicated to him.

You know who I am talking about...
   Yup, you know who I am talking about, Tuxedo Mask, the mysterious hero to helps out Sailor Moon when she is in trouble.

I wanted to stay true to the masked look without doing an actual mask so this is what I came up with.

Tuxedo Mask without the masked look
  I decided to do a smokey eye with double liner in order to give the masked effect. I am quite pleased with the look that it is still soft enough to wear during the day and the two liners do give the masked feel without having to paint my entire face.
I used the following products for this look
Lunatick Cosmetics Labs Primer
NYX black bean (on lid only)
Dark Heart Designs (DHD) Audrey
DHD Wine Red
DHD Toxic
DHD Vampire Red
DHD Grace
Uniqso Kawayii Snow Blue Lenses (used "dreadfullydivine" for 10% off)
Moon Princess Lashes from Born Pretty Store ( use code KLH10 for 10% off)
Wolfe FX Essential Palette for the white liner.

You can find Dark Heart Designs on StoreEnvy, Facebook, and their Facebook Fan Page. I would love to hear what you think of the new Sailor Moon Series and this series of looks so leave a comment below to make Tuxedo Mask Happy and you do want to make him happy right?

Yup, of course you do!


I hope that you enjoyed this installment of the Sailor Moon Crystal Series so until time lovelies!

EOTD/ FOTD Series: Belle,Boe and Neno in a bar with Vampires? A Notoriously Morbid eye

Hello lovelies!
   Welcome back to another installment of the EOTD series. Today is a redo of a look that I wore to a family outing this weekend and I forgot to take a picture of it. =(  ( #makeupartistproblems ) I hate it when I do that! However it was just to pretty to not redo and it is more of a neutral look that everyone can feel comfortable wearing.
Belle, Boe and Neno in a bar with Vampires? WHAT?
   I know that a lot of you are wondering what is with the name of this look. So here is the madness behind it, it is all based off the various colors and collections from Notoriously Morbid. Notoriously Morbid has a lot of amazing bright and bold colors but she also carries some really gorgeous neutrals which I used for this look.

Here is the list of products used for this look:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance 
Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Milk
Belle's Bounty in the inner eye and tear duct (Notoriously Morbid)
Boe  middle lid (NM)
Neno outer corner and crease (NM)
Where the Kids and the Vamps Go above the crease (NM)
Goodbye Sweetie  highlight (NM)
She Names the Stars lower lash line (NM)
Desiree lashes from Oh My Lash
I also used this brush set from the Born Pretty Store to create this look. Use discount code KLH10 for 10% off your order!

I hope that you enjoyed this look and until next time lovelies!

EOTD/FOTD Series: My Little Pony Apple Jack inspired look done with BeautyBarBaby and Lit Cosmetics

Hello lovelies!
   I am back again with another installment of the EOTD/FOTD series with another My Little Pony inspired look. For the next pony I decided on Apple Jack, not only is she sassy and full of spunk, but she is also all of the colors that I usually don't create a look with together. Honestly, I never think of putting yellow, orange brown, red and green together in a look. But I do think that it came together really well. Take a peek and tell me what you think....
My Little Pony Apply Jack inspired look

For this look I used Beauty Bar Baby's That's Really Bananas, Sweeten Up, Chaos, Brownie, Poisoned Apple, SnoBall, In Da Club and The Grinch. I also used Devil's Breath foiled as a liner for my eyes. I used Carrot Top glitter from Lit Cosmetics. I am wearing the Vassen Lollipop Lenses in green from CandyLens and finally these lashes from the Born Pretty Store (Use discount code KLH10 for 10% off your order).  The dots were done with Wolfe Fx's Essential Palette. Overall I am really please with the look and I am all ready thinking of which pony to do next in the series. Do you have a suggestion? If you do drop me a line below and let me know! Until next time lovelies!
