New Year's Eve makeup (gold green)

Hey Beauties!

We've survived Christmas, now it's time for New Year's Eve. Isn't it great this holiday season? So many excuses to make new makeup looks :). I feel like I tend to stay in my safe colors. Well, nothing has changed for this makeup look. But I promise, I will try to make a bit more colorful looks. It's hard, because I don't have the most pigmented colored eye shadows. I guess I really need to buy one of the Sleek palettes. Do you recommend any colorful palettes?

Now, let's get on with this look.



I started with forest green shade putting it into the crease. Then I put copper shade on the inner and outer third of the eye. In the middle I put gold shade.


I added copper shade on the center of lower lid. In the outer corner I put greenish brown shade. I did winged eye liner in black. I also darkened the crease a little with a greenish brown shade.


Then I took a gold glitter eye liner and put in on the lid all the way up to the crease and winged it out on top of black liner. I added mascara and false lashes.In the inner corner of the eye I put light gold shade as a highlight.





On the lips I put light warm nude lipstick that has a bit of gold shine to it.


That is a simple glitter eyes with pretty nude face. Gold glitter will pop anytime you'll look down or flirt with a cute guy ;). The focus is on the eyes and everything else is clean and easy to maintain. 



If this is not enough color for you and you want a bit more, then just add red lipstick and the look becomes a lot more colorful. Don't forget to add a bit more of blush :).

DIY: Christmas tree ornaments (part 1)

Hey Beauties!

Christmas is coming up:), yey! I think I'm more excited for the holidays, because I finally have some time for me. Sometimes I have so many ideas and so little time. I hope to catch up, but I doubt. You know how it is, family comes together, you go here and there and the holidays are over.

Here is another Christmas DIY. In one of the stores I found these transparent Christmas tree ornaments and was so happy. Then I didn't know what to do with it. So many possibilities :). Here's the part one of how I decided to "pimp" those up.



Gold glitter with red bow ornament

For this one I used Mod Podge as a base. I poured it in the half of ornament and swirled it around. I got a wavy pattern and them I poured on top of that some gold glitter. I let it dry and then I just shook off any leftover glitters. At home I also had red gift ribbon and tied it into a bow. I glued it on the top of ornament. I also used some leftover gold decorative cord and used it to hang my ornament on the tree.







Snowflakes and fake snow ornament

I took one of Avon's nail polishes, which is a beautiful white silver shimmer shade. I used a striping nail brush and drew on some snowflakes, randomly. Then I had some fake snow at home so I filled my ornaments to a half. I took decorative white and silver cord to tie a bow and used it to hang the ornament.







I still didn't put up the Christmas tree, because we usually do it later in December. But when I get around to it, I will hang these on. I think they look kind of cute, what do you think?

In another post I will share my other two types of those ornaments.

Did you make any DIY Christmas tree ornaments?
