An eye look with no palettes?!

Okay, maybe not.

But! But, the main colors for my look today (e.g. the lid colors) were not from a palette! I used single shadows today; yay me!

I really wish that I could give y'all some lengthy, witty post about my day and stuff, but jobs 1 and 2 seriously kicked my butt today, again; you know how weekends go, if you've been reading this blog a while. Plus, I work a cumulative ten hours tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep within the next hour and a half, so let me get into the pictures and the details for you; I know that's what you're here for.




I...am quite pleased.

And a closeup on the eyes (no video today):


I gave good face today, honey. Usually I'm a little opposed to trying to show out when I don't have le crochet braids, and I really don't like wearing contacts without le crochet braids, but today was a home run in my book. Mhm, quite pleased, quite pleased...

I tried out a couple of new things today, and I really liked the outcome! I'm glad I can put some of my new stuff to use; now I won't feel so lame for having bought/received all of it lol.
And...I'm out of juice. Oh yeah, you won't be getting a look from me today, because tomorrow's floor set, and there will not be a drop of makeup anywhere near my face for it (I'm actually debating on wearing slippers). Alright, talk to you later!
