More Black Lips

I cannot get enough of MUFE's new black lipgloss. I just love how it changes the texture of black lipstick without taking away from the color. The only problem that I have with looks like these is feathering. They eyes and the blush are different from the last post. Also the lipstick that I used is Mac's Black lip mix this time.







Note to self: I really shouldn't wear this color out for drinks unless I have a straw.

Janell Monae and Kellindo Parker Acoustic Cover

I love Janelle Monae and I like her cover of this song. Fashion wise she always looks sharp, but so does her guitarist. I'm totally digging Kellindo Parker's manicure and might copy it.


Note: the guitarist is Kellindo Parker, not Andre 3000

Collection Remix: Style Black

So this was actually a bit of a surprise for me. I thought I was going to redo a different collection until I stumbled upon something that I have been dying to get for quite some time: a nice black lipgloss. *drool* MUFE, I love you so much right now.

Black Gloss Swatches

I just had to post this today! I went down to my local Sephora and picked up MUFE Metal Lab 00. Talk about a gorgeous black gloss! This is exactly the kind of black gloss that I've been looking for. I like it more when worn over black lipstick, but it's one of my favorite combos now.

Purple Look

This photo is a little late (I've been meaning to post this for some time now). I did it on a whim following Youtuber xxsgtigressxx's Arabic inspired makeup. I went with purples instead of greens and threw some glitter in there too! The eyeliner is one of MAC's cromographic pencils in a concealer shade because white is just too stark for me.
Unfortunately because everything was at night, I couldn't show the kind of depth that I would have wanted to.

Collection Remix: Naughty Nauticals

This collection from May 2008 was inspired by colors traditionally worn by sailors with a resort twist. Most of the eyeshadows and quads focused on cool eyes with a glint of gold. While most people were fawning over Bell Bottom Blue and Mutiny pigments all of my attention was on Port Red.

Collection Remix

If you could do a MAC collection over again, which one would it be and what would you change? With all of the collections that are coming out one after another it can be hard to say, but I think that there are certain collections that just jump out at you.

Personally I can think of several collections that I would want to do over again and for different reasons. Some of them I just think would have been more exciting if I knew what I know now at the time of the release. Others, I was just really excited for but they turned out to be completely disappointing. Then there are others that are parts of anniversary collections and I would take elements from the different releases.

I think that once a month I will do a post featuring a "collection remix" which is not only a chance to shop my stash, but also to take a new twist on the different collections.
