Matte Brown Smokey Eyes

Today I created some matte brown smokey eyes... I know you may be sick of me doing smokey eyes but I'll love them forever, lol... it's always special.

The lipstick (Creme D'Nude) looks ridiculously light in these pictures, in person it doesn't, but I would NOT recommend it to anyone with a darker complexion than I have (NC35)... it would look totally pale and dead.

Kim Kardashian inspired Look for New Year's Eve

Inspired by some Birthday Pics of Kim Kardashian, I tried to recreate this look. I also wanted to do a video, but the lightning is so bad today and it did not work =( maybe I'll try it again but I don't know if I'll find the time. This will be my look for New Year's Eve.
Note: I know I am not Kim Kardashian, I do not look like her and I don't want to compare to her in any way. I was just inspired and this is not an exact dupe of her look.

A Mauve and Blue Look (Video Tutorial)

Today I decided to do another video tutorial, even to experiment a little bit with the camera settings, lol. I think it made a little effort.

When I did the Eye Makup with Shale last week, I asked for ideas to combine MAC SHale Eyeshadow with other colours. I was given the tip tp use it together with Contrast Eyeshadow, and well, this is a great tip, isn't it? I think those colours look gorgeous together.

Shale & I'ts getting dark again

On friday I got MACs Shale eyeshadow. Everyone was raving about it and it was said to be such an unique shade. Well, I find it pretty. But now that I have it, I don't know how to combine it, except of my usual purples and browns. So this is a boring look, I know.
Does anyone of you own Shale and have an idea how to combine it in another way?
