Re: What are you wearing today?

Neat colour combo! It matches your hat and shirt it looks like 😛

Re: What are you wearing today?

Love the custom lip color. I hope your MIL is doing well.

Re: What are you wearing today?

Is the high voltage a new product? I had never heard about this, I'm digging the mix, turned out a nice brick red! I hope your mother in law comes out fine, whatever she's going under.

Yes. NYX just released the High Voltage lipsticks. AND a new lip gloss line...but I can't remember the name, I haven't tried them. This is my first NYX lipstick and I love it!! It's an impressive quality for $6. Now I get what all the buzz about NYX lippies is about!!!

My MIL was just diagnosed with uterine cancer. They caught it early and apparently, it's one of the easier types of cancer to treat. SO today she is undergoing a hysterectomy. So we are standing by at the the hospital, me, my husband, and his grandparents. 

Re: What are you wearing today?

You look smashing, Vaashtii! How do you like the NYX High Voltage so far?

 

I hope surgery goes well for your MIL. Keep us posted.

Re: What are you wearing today?

Thanks!!! I love this shade. It's not as bright as a normal red. It's got a smidge of rust to it or something. But it is brighter than Bette, so I kind of like it to brighten it up just a bit! And it seems to wear well. It is transferrable though. 

Re: What are you wearing today?

Hope all goes well with your MIL's surgery! I'm guessing you are the most fabulous-looking person in the hospital waiting room, especially since you're rocking Bette.

Thanks!! Everything should go smoothly!! She was just diagnosed with cancer. But they caught it early so we're hoping this does the trick!! 

Re: What are you wearing today?

I wanted to do a really vampy lip and clean rest of face today, but my lip didn't end up dark enough for my liking. I realized that I really have a hole in my stash when it comes to dark lipsticks. Now I am wishing I had picked up the reformulated Bite 001!

 

Excuse the random clothing in the background. Yesterday was laundry day and I left a couple items out to attack with the lint roller. Our dog loves to leave his hair everywhere. 😃

 

Diorskin Nude Air, Besame Vanilla Brightening Powder, NARS Exhibit A

 

Inglot shadows, UD Twice Baked, L'Oreal Double Extend Lash Boost Mascara, Anastasia Dip Brow in Dark Brown

 

OCC Matte Lip Tar in Black Dahlia (my tube broke open so I have this in a small plastic pot. I was afraid that it would dry out but it is still perfect)

Re: What are you wearing today?

You so good with berry lip colors 🙂 

Re: What are you wearing today?

I actually think applying OCC tars from a pot would be easier than the squeeze tub. And the color is lovely!

Re: What are you wearing today?

Did you just dab it on? I love the color but I thought Dahlia was way deeper color! Either way, you look dashing. 

Re: What are you wearing today?

No, I applied my normal amount in my normal way (I own a lot of lip tars and like to think I have it down to a science now haha). For some reason, it always looks like this on me. I did pretty much the same face last Friday except that I layered Black Metal Dahlia over Black Dahlia and it still didn't go very dark on me. I don't love Black Metal Dahlia, I think I am going to trade/give it away and buy myself a new tube of Black Dahlia.

Re: What are you wearing today?

Ah, that is weird! It's super dark on me!

Re: What are you wearing today?

Ditto!

Re: What are you wearing today?

OH. OH. whoah I missed that, I didn't know there were two shades, I thought it was just one shade and it was called black metal dahlia, haha. You'd think something with the words black metal that it'd look almost completely black with hinds of maroon. 😛 

The other day I remembered about the transparent powder so I applied it over one of my liptars and it worked well! 

Re: What are you wearing today?

I don't think I posted my makeup on Friday, so you didn't miss anything, no worries!

Black Dahlia is matte, and Black Metal Dahlia is their metallic version. I don't care for most of their metallics as they just generally look like glitter-bombs on my lips. 

Re: What are you wearing today?

Wow, Black Dahlia looks so different on you than on me!  This is how Strumpet looks on me.  

 

Yay, Exhibit A love!  It is a favorite of mine.  

 

I am so jelly of how naturally pretty you always look, Ali!

Re: What are you wearing today?

Haha weird how much time and effort go into looking "naturally" pretty! Thanks!

 

I am starting to wonder if I have a funky tube of Black Dahlia. I have always had separating problems with it, except its not the oil separating like I would expect. Rather, the bright red and black base separate and I have to mix them together every time I use it. Having it in a pot has actually made it easier for me to mix them. This is one of my oldest lip tars, so I think it is time for a new one.

Re: What are you wearing today?

Black Dahlia looks so wearable and wonderful on you. It's great paired with your neutral eyes! If you want it darker, I suggest buying the lipliner. Easier to build on that 🙂
