I love how vibrant the Urban Decay 24/7 liners can be, however I prefer to sample them before buying. I say this because while I love most of the colors, Ransom really leaves something to be desired. However, the metallic colors more than make up for it. I use Lucky on a regular basis for a natural copper look. They also slide on really smooth. This is great for the most part however they are harder to use on the inner lash line, especially if you have eyes prone to watering like mine. I usually put eye shadow over these to set the liner and smooth out the color. I don't think it's absolutely necessary, just a personal preference.

The MAC Liquidlast liners are great but you have to be extremely precise because there's no fixing it. It takes some intense make up remover and serious rubbing to remove that liner.

 I use the Milani pencils all the time (which is a little sad because I have no idea where I got them so I'm not positive I can still replace them). The green is a little darker than I would like however it's a great base under brighter green eye shadow.

I'm not a big fan of the Hot Topic liners but I keep them around because occasionally they are useful. I just don't like the texture and the glitter is almost non-existent in the black. The aqua, however, is sparkly and pretty.

New Italian Mask Inspired Look

I recently visited Disney World and in the Italian section of Epcot I found a store full of masks. Needless to say I had to buy one. Also, since I haven't updated since Christmas I thought I should do a makeup look to go with it.

Sorry I didn't take step by step photos like usual, however this was pretty easy so hopefully basic instructions will be fine.

First I coated my upper lids with Urban Decay Shadow Primer potion, then I blended Make Up Forever Star Powder in black all over my upper lid. Next I used Glamour Doll Eyes Foil me to make a line on my lower lid then blended Glamour Doll Eyes Tattooed into it. I used the foil me then powder on one eye, then the other rather than priming both eyes at once. If the stuff dries too much you can't blend into it. Then I used Tattooed over the black on my upper lid. As a highlight I used Sugarpill's Hysteric and blended it into the purple liner and on the outside edges of the black. I finished the look with black mascara and Hard Candy's Lash Tinsel glitter mascara in purple. For my lips I used Victoria Secret's Very Sexy gloss in Dare with Sugarpill's Goldilux blended into it.

I tried to get a closer picture but the sun was making my eyes water so I didn't get a very good pic.

Neutral/Brown Look

No Makeup



First I covered my whole eyelid and under my eye in Urban Decay Blaze.

Then I lined my eye with a brown pencil liner from Sephora.

Next I went over the brown liner with a brown shadow to set the liner and even out the color. The shadow I used was Urban Decay Twice Baked.

After that I used the same brown shadow to add shade in the crease of my eyelid. The first pic shows where I placed the shadow before blending it out.

Finally I finished up with some powder foundation, blush, eye brow filler, mascara and a little Urban Decay Cherry on my inner crease and brow.
