FOTD: deja blue

Eyes: Victoria's Secret beauty rush in deja blue and Mark. I-Mark in Glitterati. Cheeks: NARS Orgasam Lips: Revlon Lip Butter in Peach Parfait I wore this look for dinner. I'm not much a fan of this look. I liked it more on the young lady that inspired it. I'm more into neutral colors, so putting this bold blue on was out of the box. The blue shadow on the bottom of my eyes gave the eyes depth. May not be wearing this look anymore. Happy Friday All!

date night beauty and fashion...video!

I am excited and nervous to introduce this date night look. This is the first video of my makeup and fashion. Thank you Hoa for giving me the courage to do this. I'm seriously shy. Wierd right? I cringe at the thought of doing these types of videos. So I hope that you all enjoy it! If this turns out good, you can expect more. Check it out and like or leave some sweet comments for me. Thank you again for all of the love and support! note: i am not a makeup artist. Just in case you are interested, swatches of Corset and the Neutral color I used up close! Corset is a dark black color, but I lightly applied it in this tutorial.

checking my list twice

Christmas is almost here! I cannot believe that it is so near. This past weekend I tried to finish my shopping. I have four more people to get done. Hopefully it will be finished this weekend. I lack timing this year on gift giving. There are so many things going on. It felt crazy trying to get everyone from my list done on Sunday. I had made a horrible choice of wearing fashion forward shoes. I am left with blisters and a lesson learned. We accomplished going to five different shopping places which included the mall, Sam's club, Wal-mart, Kohl's and Magic mart. I have more ill feelings towards Wal-mart than before. With the crazy holiday crowd everyone has amnesty. To avoid crazy people, a great choice would be online shopping. My Mark. online store ^_^! (at the top of my page) The makeup I wore on Sunday can be a great holiday party look. I like this natural yet festive look. It was inspired from Joan Small . I did  not go too dark on the liner, however you can. Al...

mondays with mark: giveaway-makeup or jewlery

It's October and time for another giveaway. The spa giveaway from last month will go to Dina. Thank you so much for helping with shelterbox! She will receive a $25 gift card to the spa of her choice. So thanks again! Also, last month I spent time raising money for not only shelter box, but Susan G. Komen. Since they ran so close to each other shelterbox was not as successful, unfortunately. I was a little bummed about that. I did raise (with the help of my awesome coworkers) $630 for Susan G. Komen. So YAY! If you still want to help please do! Go to shelterbox or to my team page to help out. Let me know if you need links. You can also find them in my previous posts. Ok on to the contest. I want to try something new. BTW I'm really into trying new things! lol. Had this conversation with someone the other day. I tried mussels for the first time. Not bad! The contest, right... this month I want to change up the rules. You have a chance of winning makeup or jewelry from my mar...

mondays with mark: love you like a love song

Selena Gomez's (& the scene) new music video "Love you like a love song" is full of energy and has a techno sound. The lyrics are fun and is about the first/ beginning of a couple's relationship. Another cool factor is she goes into fantasy lands. Her makeup was brilliant and colorful in this video. The look I adore is when she is in the karaoke bar and gets up to sing. Selena is sporting a purple eyeshadow with red lips. Among other looks I love, this one seemed to stand out more to me. I loved her beach scene makeup and the pinata scene. The hot pink lips are gorgeous. Anyways take a look at how I transformed into this look using mark products. And checkout the music video to see all the other looks and fantasy scenes! Also take a look behind the scenes with Selena.

mondays with mark: color blocking

My ballet poses! I felt like a pretty ballerina in this makeup and my hair in a bun. And my ballerina gear from Ralph Lauren? LOL! BTW I was not a ballerina, (because I had you fooled-Right) but I did have lessons in Thai/Lao traditional dance. ^_^ But Ballerina's are so pretty and graceful! A trend that I have been seeing is color blocking in fashion, but beauty too. This looked really sweet on a model I saw. She had navy and purple. In color blocking you can match sooo many different color combos. Blue/purple, yellow/blue, green/blue, green/yellow, pink/purple, pink/blue SOOO many! It could go on for days. I paired purple and yellow together for my look. It was challenging to find a match. I wanted to do them all.

fotd + TAG would you rather beauty edition

face of the day: mark Mini Mark It Stick Hook Up Stick for Eyes in cocoa bean mark I-Mark Custom Pick Eye Shadow in minx I got this TAG from another beauty blogger. These questions pose a challenge for ladies out there who adore makeup and beauty products. It sounded fun so here are my answers to this TAG. 1.) Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lipglosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows?   eyeshadows/palettes. lipsticks/glosses are sooo hard to replace esp when you find your favorite and they discontinue it. 2.) Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again? i love my hair long. i would miss it too much. so i would rather never be able to cut it again. 3.) Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek? pink cheeks. coral is great, but i love my pink. 4.) If you had $1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup? clothes! 5.) Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyel...
