FOOT: MAC Cosmetics Interview

Hello ladies and gents, so about a week ago I had an interview at MAC Cosmetics and this is the makeup I wore for the interview. I don't have a whole lot of shadows from MAC so I had to work with what I had available. I read that you should wear ALL MAC MAKEUP for the interview, so since I didn't have a blush from them OR foundation I had to make a trip to the nearest MAC counter the day before the interview.

I am wearing on my cheeks "Breezy". I love this blush, it's a pink color with a gold undertone so it works perfect for my skin tone. So here is a list of what I used to create this look:

EYES: MAC's metallic pigment "White as Snow"

LIPS: "Viva Glam Nikki"

FACE: Studio Sculpt

CHEEKS: "Breezy"

Oh and I am happy to say that I was offered a job as a freelance makeup artist for MAC!!!! YAY I'm so freaking excited you guys have NO idea!!! It was great experience and the process was very quick compared to most. So I will keep you all posted on how this journey goes ^_^

ViVa Glam Nikki


This is just a super quick post featuring some pictures with the new Viva Glam Nikki. I LOVE IT!!!!
It kind of has a neon effect (on my lips at least). It's what I would expect from Nikki. So without further due, here are the pictures.

Do you have this lipstick? What do you think of it?

Bright eyes

For today I finally chose to use some colors on my makeup. I used L'Oreal Hip Matte Duo Eye Shadow in "Striking", which is a yellow and a dark brown. I love the color combination!!! I used some random lashes and added liquid liner on top and a dark eyeliner on my water line to add more drama to the look.
It was such a beautiful sunny day today, so I decide to go outside to take these pictures and I think they came out super awesome!!! There's nothing like natural lighting!

OH and on my lips I'm wearing one of the lipsticks that I got from Walgreens yesterday and I talked about it here. This one is in the "Kate" line and is the number 14.

FOTD: Featuring Rimmel's Lipstick and Wet N' Wild Blush

So today I went to Walgreens to see if I could find any good deals on makeup. Long and behold all of the Rimmel's lipsticks were $2.99 so I got a bunch of them (I'll have a separate post for them) and nail polish as well. I really wanted a new blush so I picked up a blush from Wet N' Wild called "Heather Silk", which is a really pretty pink color. The lipstick I'm wearing is from Rimmel and is called "Dizzy" and I love it! It goes on very smooth and is super hydrating. 
On my eyes I am using a combination of random colors from my 120 pallet from Coastal Scents, and some false lashes (I can't live without them).
So I have a question. I used to do tutorials on youtube but have not done them in a while. Would you be interested in seeing how I achieve my looks? If so let me now in a comment bellow and I will make a video in the near future. Also check out my website www.ellejewels.com. You might just find something pretty for yourself.

Pretty Brown Eyes: Using a palette from Brazil!!

My grandma who lives in Brazil, sent me this makeup palette from T&G (if I'm not mistaken this is a company based in the US) but it's not popular here! I was expecting it to not be of very good quality, since I never knew of good quality makeup coming from my homeland lol. Well I am happy to say I was sadly mistaken. I AM IN LOVE with this palette. It includes eye shadows, blush, and powder foundation. It goes on very smoothly and it lasted all day!
I have only used it once but I will make sure to use all of the colors, because the combination of them is beautiful. So today I am bringing you this look using brown and copper. I really reminded me of something that I could possibly create using the Naked palette from Urban Decay, (maybe that's why I loved it so much)

What do you think?
