Nars Multiple in Orgasm Tutorial


This look is fresh and bright, opening the eyes for a wide-eyed effect. The multiple is wonderful; it can be used on the eyes, lips, and cheeks. I used it in the color 'Orgasm', which is a peachy pink shimmery color, wearable for most skin tones. For a tutorial on this look, please visit my video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBEKZeUx8yM

Products used:
Nars Multiple in 'Orgasm'
MAC 'Fascinating' Eye Kohl
MAC eyeshadow in 'Satin Taupe'
Dior mascara base
Tarte 'Lights, Camera, Lashes!' mascara

My Lovely Thanksgiving




Today was Thanksgiving, and it may be my favorite Thanksgiving yet. We had planned to go to a family member's house for Thanksgiving, but plans changed last minute and we made the best of our circumstances. I had mentioned in my vlog that I don't actually like turkey, so instead this year we ran to the store and grabbed some chicken. We made mouthwatering chicken piccata with a side of pasta (and salad too!) for dinner. For dessert, I made some pumpkin spice cupcakes with cream cheese frosting with my mom's help. We washed dessert down with coffee which accented the cupcakes nicely. This may have to be a new family tradition...
