Galaxy Nails

So I realize I've been doing a lot more nail posts that usual. Hope that's alright with you guys. I've just been in a nail art kinda mood. A few weeks back, I did my friend's nails. I had been on tumblr and the galaxy design was just really popular all over my dashboard. And these adorable galaxy patterned leggings kept popping up everywhere. That is where I got my inspiration for the nails. I watched a couple videos on how to do it and all of them used makeup sponges. So, you thinking the makeup freak I am, I would have an extra makeup sponge laying around that I could rip up and cover in nail polish. I'm disappointed to say I didn't. What kind of a makeup artist am I?? So, anyways, I ended up using just a regular kitchen sponge (clean of course!). And this is what I ended up with.



I wish I would've been able to make the stars a little bit smaller on some of the nails, but other than that, I was pretty happy with the way they turned out. Thanks for stopping by and have a fantabulous weekend!

Always,
Britta

MAC Extra Dimension Eye Shadow in Modern Pewter

Hello lovelies! Sorry I've been gone for so long! I don't think I've gone this long without doing a post and that's just depressing. So, yesterday I did a couple of girls' makeup for their prom. I just wanted to show you one of the main products I ended up using and since its slightly new at MAC, I thought I would share it with you.



With flash.

Natural light.
I loooove the design. I'm always a sucker for products with a stamped look. Even though they don't last very long. This was part of the In Extra Dimension line for $20. That's $5 more than a regular shadow but you have to take in consideration the size. Where the normal ones have 1.5 g, this one has 2 g. I like this product so far and already have a look planned using it. Thanks for stopping by!

Always,
Britta
