Happy Sunday, pretties!
I was having a lot of fun with these picture frames in Photoshop this morning and thought, “Hmm… wouldn’t it be cool to take YOUR pictures and do a roundup of them like the other pictures in this post?”
So let’s do it!
If you have access to a digital camera, take a picture of your makeup and send it to me in this form (or send a link). Include the names of the products you’re wearing and a description of your look.
I’ll take a bunch of the looks and put them together in a resource post with a sprinkling of Photoshoppery, some comic bubbles, some pretty picture frames and perhaps a guest appearance by Tabs.
I think it’ll be cool to be able to see a bunch of different looks together in the same post.
Whatever look you’re wearing, share it with the form and attach a photo (or a link, like to Flickr, Photobucket or pics on your blog).
Here’s my look today…
- Eyes: Stila Jewel Palette, Clinique Brush-On Cream Liner in Bronze, Benefit Samba-dy Loves Me, Cargo Plant Love Eyeliner in Black, Stila Lash Visor Waterproof Mascara in Black
- Lips: Nars Lip Liner in Morocco, Stila Lip Glaze in Jewel, Stila Pearl Shimmer Gloss in Pearl Kitten
- Cheeks: Stila Jewel Palette
A description of my look: El Hub and I are heading out to brunch, so I’m going a little casual today with shimmery brown eyes, pink cheeks and a shimmery brownish pink lip. I started with the palette and lipgloss from the Jewel Stila Loves Barbie can. I’ve been repping the scarf/gold hoops combo in my pics lately, but that’s because my hair’s been absolutely out of control!
Private eyes are watching you… watching your every move…
How to share your look
Fill out this form, and attach a picture of your fine self. If you want to get your pet up in the mix, go for it.
FEED OR EMAIL READERS: I haven’t figured out how to get the form to work correctly from the feed or the emails yet. I think it’s possible, but for now, if you’re reading this on the feed, please click this link if you want to fill out the form.
I’m off to devour some banana pancakes. Talk to ya in a few. 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

March 15th, 2009 at 1:48 pmHi Karen,
I am trying to submit a pic but it keeps telling me to check my answer to the last question, which I put in there and I know it’s correct! So I don’t know if you got my submission or not.

Happy Sunday. 🙂 I just submitted the form but I have to add a disclaimer – this look wasn’t from today, but a few nights ago. I wouldn’t change much to do this look for daytime though, so I found it an appropriate photo to submit since I already had it uploaded on my computer.
PS: Enjoy those banana pancakes!!!

March 15th, 2009 at 3:21 pmCool idea. Cute look Karen! Love the scarf thing! Unforunately I can’t pull if off, they always seem to slip back off my head.

Wow what a great idea! I am a freelance makeup artist in Indianapolis. I blog after I work in-store events for Bobbi Brown, Chanel, Laura Mercier etc.
Last Saturday I worked a Bobbi Brown event, I had time to take (too dark:() pics of my last 2 clients.
I posted them to my Flickr photostream which is embedded in my web site. I wrote about all the products I had used on both ladies with links to Bobbi’s site in case anyone was interested in buying.
I am SO happy I found your blog! I will visit often to see what you are up to 🙂

March 15th, 2009 at 6:48 pmKaren – This is a brilliant idea. Love it, love it. You’re creating a virtual makeup party. I probably won’t submit a pic (young baby, etc.), but I’m a cosmetics junkie. Yours is the only blog I bother checking out. Great stuff!
Heather says
March 15th, 2009 at 7:00 pmI agree with Briana. can you do a video on how to use scarfs as headbands?

March 16th, 2009 at 8:12 amHi Vampy Varnish,
Hmm, maybe it’s a bug in the form. I’m check to see if it’s working.
Karen says
March 16th, 2009 at 8:12 amHi Sole,
Got it! 🙂 Thanks for submitting it. You look lovely!
Brunch was a lot of fun. We ended up going to a place that overlooks the water in Sausalito (a town next to SF).
Hope you’re having a good Monday so far.

March 16th, 2009 at 8:12 amHi Liz,
Good job, girl! I need to get my booty to the gym today.
I haven’t tried The Body Shop’s Aloe Vera Cream. Does it have a scent?
Karen says
March 16th, 2009 at 8:13 amHi Briana,
You can do a few tricks to keep it from slipping (I use creative bobby pin placement!). I’ll do a video soon.
How was your weekend?
Karen says
March 16th, 2009 at 8:13 amHi Shannon,
Aww, thank you. 🙂 How long have you been addicted to makeup?
Karen says
March 16th, 2009 at 8:13 amHi Heather,
Sure. 🙂 Writing it on my list of video ideas right now!
