Reflections in dreams
Thursday, April 30th, 2009
My dreams took me back last night; to a place I haven’t been in over a decade; a place I never imagined my self being, and never want to be again. Ten years devoted. Ten years spent. Irretrievable. Broken. Gone forever. I entered through the familiar front door; the scent that was us overwhelmed and stopped me in my tracks. My eyes adjusted then focused in the dark, as familiar images and shapes appeared before me. I slowly walked from room to room; each containing different objects from

Review Clairol Natural Instincts Hair Color Navaho Bronze
Thursday, April 30th, 2009
I first heard about this hair coloring at another list that I’m on. People were raving about it. So when Book Girl, who was then in college, wanted to color her hair — she already has some white in it courtesy of my father who was pure white by age 27 or so — I thought of this. We’ve used it on her hair for several years now. Initially it took care of the brassiness from a bad salon coloring when we hoped to get the lovely blond-brown shade from her early childhood. While this coloring

Eye techniques to make your eyes look larger
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009
My 13 yo asked me this morning how you use eye makeup to make your eyes look bigger. That seemed a perfect opportunity to post on the subject. She knew enough to ask because we have talked about it in general terms. Remember makeup is all about illusion. For the most part, people would like their eyes to look bigger or more open. They certainly don’t want to make their eyes look smaller. The exception is someone whose eyes protrude. People should know you have makeup on, but not separ

Lip Techniques and etc.

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you know that I like to show lip techniques. Find more at SavvyThinker Quick Find from this page. For the most part now, since I’ve found it, I use what I call the Beauté technique. Basically it uses two glosses (or I will use a lipstick and a gloss). Fill in your lips with the darker shade; rim them with the second. You can read my in depth here . What I like about this technique It’s easy. Subtle It gives a softer and fresher take on

A little bit about eye techniques and etc.
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009
Eyes: To blend or not It really is not necessary to blend if you apply in a blending way to begin with, see below. OTOH, if your skin is less fair and you can blend because it doesn’t hurt, do what works for you. Because I am so fair skinned, it’s hard to get eye colors that go on me easily. Once they blotch, if they do, they are impossible to fix — as many MUAs have found out — no amount of blending will fix it. I have to start from scratch, and I’m not willing to do that most days.

Sorry that I’m late getting this posted! Yesterday was a busy day! Eyes: Fyrinnae Fujiro in crease; Optimism on lid Gorgeous colors! I wanted to try Fyrinnae again before I forgot how to apply it (pat, not swipe.) (Make sure brush has no black left in it, which I remembered to check.) (I have brushes dedicated to light or dark colors, so I don’t have to worry about getting a dark shade mixed in with a light one.) You can see they are not exact matches. It drives me nuts trying to get them
