The Penguin Makeup Challenge: White and Color

Wow! Today is the last day of the Penguin Makeup Challenge! I can't believe it! This challenge has been great fun! I have really loved every second of it! My creations, the other ladies' creations, everything! Below are the links to each post of mine...

Click HERE for my post annoucning the Penguin Makeup Challenge!
Click HERE for Week 1: Black and White.
Click HERE for Week 2: Black and Color.


Today is August 15th, so that means today's theme is White and Color!

Here's what I came up with:


Because today's theme was White and Color, I didn't think we could use any black at all.... So I didn't! I wore teal mascara instead of black! I actually wore it out with more neutral eyeshadow one day.... And got a ton of compliments! Awesome, huh?

Here's a list of the products that I used:
  • Ulta Iceland (pearly white eyeshadow)
  • Hello Kitty Mon Amour Palette; Jardin (light blue; I used it wet as liner)
  • Maybelline Great Lash in Totally Teal

So that was my last day of the Penguin Makeup Challenge! My first challenge!

Be sure to check out the other ladies' wonderful White and Colored creations!


Thank you so much for reading!

The Penguin Makeup Challenge: Black and Color

Hello everyone! I just got back home from Florida! While I was gone I had some scheduled posts, and then some pictures ready so that I could write the posts on my iPad while I was there! Well, that didn't really work out! I couldn't post pictures! How lame is that? Therefore, I'm posting the 2nd Week of the Penguin Makeup Challenge 2 days lake, sorry!

Today's (or Wednesday's) theme is Black and Color!


If you want to see my creation for last week, Black and White, you can click HERE.

Last week, I went with a really subtle and "safe" type of eye look. I noticed that a lot of the other ladies' makeup looks were a lot more creative and crazy! So this week, I went all out! I hope you like it as much as I do!

Both eyes:


Right eye:


Left eye:


Now, here's a list of all the products that I used:
  • Ulta It Girl Palette; Black with Purple and Blue Shimmer
  • Hello Kitty Mon Amour Palette; Jardin (Light Blue), Passion Fruit Macaroon (Light Purple), and Fleur De Lys (Dark Purple)
  • Wet n Wild Fantasy Makers Temporary Tattoo (from Hallowen 2011)
  • Elmers Glitter Glue
  • Maybelline Volum' Express the Colossal in Glam Black

And that's it! I hope no one minds me posting a few days late! Check out some of the other blogger's wonderful creations below!



Thanks for reading and commenting!

The Penguin Makeup Challenge: Black and White

You may possibly remember when I blogged about The Penguin Makeup Challenge back on July 12th... that long ago!!! You can see my post HERE.


Well, July has come and gone, and now I'm here with August 1st, the first day of The Penguin Makeup Challenge! For today and the following 2 Wednesdays, I'll be joining some lovely bloggers with this makeup challenge! They figured that there were too many nail challenges out there, so we needed a makeup challenge! So, I accept the challenge!

Today, August 1, the challenge was Black and White. I chose to do an eye look, so here is the finished product!



Products I Used:
  • Maybelline Volum' Express the Colossal in Glam Black
  • Ulta Iceland (eyeshadow)
  • Ulta Smoke (eyeshadow)
  • Ulta Black Ink (eyeshadow)

Now before you say anything, I know... My eyebrows are looking really bad. I didn't think of plucking them... Shame on me. They'll be beter in my next post, I swear! No hate, please! :)

 

I really enjoyed doing these eyes, and posting something besides nail polish and hauls! It was fun!!! I can't wait to see all of the other ladies' makeup, and I can't wait until next week!

By the way, around mid-July, I said that I was hoping for 10-15 followers by the end of July! Today, it's August 1st and I have 15 followers! Yay! I wonder how many people will be following me by the end of August.....?

Thanks for reading!
