Gypsy Eyes

"The music of the Gypsies belongs in the sphere of improvisation rather than in any other, without which it would have no power to exist."

Franz Liszt

A quote that seems only appropriate, when here I am improvising as I go along.  Creating color and blends, that coincide with beauty, art, culture and more.  The music in my movements creating the colors that I can bring to you.  

A stunning blend of earth tones to bring out the inner Gypsy in us all. Simple, understated, even over looked but stunning and mesmerizing at the same time. 

Pixies Gold - A warm gold with brown and orange 

Vanilla- A great base with a hint of yellow 

Gypsy- Brown with shimmer and a hint of gold

Hazelnut- a glittery light brown

Seeing Dots

On vacation on this week so I will leave you with this weeks look. With the sun in my eyes, I have been seeing dots!
I used Sephora's Ruby without a cause and Plum Valley Notions You Betcha Black with Million Points of Light holo glitter polish on some of my dots.

The Eyes Have it

With Blue, it is hard to imagine Brown would compliment it. But with Brown, it seems you can pull off so many other color combo's.  As with green eyes, you are limited to golds, peaches and violets, and with blue eyes you are suggested to wear browns, taupe, peaches.  But brown... Brown can be mixed and matched with just about any color.  They suggest Purples, greens, taupe, charcoal, etc and the list goes on ...

Now given the times, very few take stock in the designated color combinations for eyes anymore. The sky is the limit and the colors are as infinite as the stars themselves.  But with this girl, The Brown eyes have it and we are taking over!  

This is a great color combination that blends well, can be mixed and matched with two out of the three colors and that can easily go from day to night. 

Regatta- A soft but intense blue color 

White Satin- a white white with shimmer

Antique Silver- a grey with shimmer and shine

The Tropics have arrived!

I want to share a color combo with you that is a great tropical look! The colors are easy to mix and match with others and can be worn for either day or night!  This is a great look for when you are on the town or even just because! I love how these colors blend so well. 
And if you can't always get away to that warm tropical get away, Tahoe is always good! Beautiful blue and teal waters just waiting for your toes!

First, I applied my Eye Primer to my entire eye lid.  Then I applied Dark Magic to the outer corner of my eye and under they eye(also referred to as below the waterline).  Next I added  Glimmer to the rest of my eye, starting in the inner corner and moved over 2/3 of my eyelid.  Finally I added  Coral Reef to the center my eye and blended into the inner and outer corners.  I always try to make sure I have the lightest color in the inner corner of my eye.  It lightens up your eye and makes the other colors pop. 
I added a small amount of mascara, but I am generally not a mascara person.  Instead of an eye liner, I used an angled tip brush to mix a drop of foiling serum and loose shadow together (in the lid of my shadow container) and created a paste. Using the angled brush, I ran it along my eye lashes on top and then just below my waterline. 

Dark Magic: A dark purple blue color with iridescent green shimmer

Coral Reef : A Teal Blue color that looks like the tropical waters of Hawaii

 Glimmer:  A light lime green color with lots of sparkle

A Little Color Goes a Long Way!

Today I want to share a color combo with you that is a beautiful dusty plum color paired with a cream soft creamy vanilla color. The colors are easy to mix and match with others and can be worn for either day or night!  This is a great look for when you are on the go. Three steps and I was ready for the day!  

First, I applied my Eye Primer to my entire eye lid.  Then I applied Athena to the entire lid and under my eye (also referred to as below the waterline).  Finally I added  Vanilla to the inner corner of my eye and blended into the center.  This is why the creamy color looks a little muted.  I did this so it was soft and not as outstanding as the Vanilla can be.  At this point you can add mascara, but I am generally not a mascara person.  Instead of an eye liner, I used an angled tip brush to mix a drop of foiling serum and loose shadow together (in the lid of my shadow container) and created a paste. Using the angled brush, I ran it along my eye lashes on top and then just below my waterline. 
For a more dramatic look you can always add more of the darker color to the corner of your eye, or even use a foiling serum  to create a cream shadow and intensify the color and shine. 

Vanilla: A soft cream color with some shimmer

Athena: Dusty plum color with some shimmer
