Bad Hair Day

Just be thankful you aren't my puppy, Fendi. She is having a BADDDD hair day ;)

Cotton Candy Ice Cream

Today I decided to do something a little more exciting than usual with my makeup. 

This is a really frosty blue look that I love; however, I think it would look better on blue eyes. 

Oh well, it was something fun that I did!

After applying primer and concealer around my eyes, 

I thinly lined my upper lash lines with a shimmery, dark blue BareMinerals eyeshadow, Tinsel.

 (I used a wet liner brush to apply the liner)

Next I use all Urban Decay products.

I use Yeyo, a glittery, icy white pigment, all over my lids, 

focusing on the inner corner to brighten my eyes. 

In the crease I use a deep blue, Shattered, 

and build up this vibrant color in the outer corners.

To mesh the two contrasting colors together,

 I add Narcotic, a beautiful baby blue, with a blending brush.

To finish off this fun look, 

I add blue mascara, Flipside, also from Urban Decay.

A little bit of pink blush, and a baby pink lip should even out these crazy blue eyes!

Try it on your skin tone and eye color. =)

Send me pics.

If I Ever Let Go

This is a song I wrote to get me past some bad times. Tell me what you think

"If I Ever Let Go" - Copyright 2011, Sophia Marie Productions

another boy's calling my phone, but I don't care

it buzzes and rings on my desk as I blankly stare

honestly, I lost all feelings

it's too bad, takin' no time for minglin'

he'll just break my heart like the last one did.

oh, and I don't have the strength to put it

back together again

people say I'm pretty, but I don't get why

every time I fall and share, I end up crying

It might hurt, but this is the only pain I am willing to take

I'm wrapping my heart up in barb wire, at least it will be safe

la la, la la, they say everyone falls in love again

la la, la la, one day I'll let someone in

and when I do, if I do, you'll be the first to know

if I can ever let go

ask me to dance, go ahead, I'll just say no

or I won't feel a thing even if I go

I guess I accidently buried my life and faith

In the process of trying to put a broken heart behind me

la la, la la, they say everyone falls in love again

la la, la la, one day I'll let someone in

and when I do, if I do, you'll be the first to know

if I can ever let go

tired of tear stains on my pillows

tired of my puppy being the only one that knows

tired of turning up the music to tune out the cold

tired of trying, but not willing to let go

la la, la la, they say everyone falls in love again

la la, la la, one day I'll let someone in

and when I do, if I do, you'll be the first to know

if I can ever let go

If I ever let go, I'll fall in love again

If I ever let go, one day I'll let someone in

Oh I will, everyday choose to push pain away

I'm letting go today.

Beauty Posts?

So if you are reading this, you are most likely reading this because you saw a harp video on YouTube...So I don't know if people would like to hear about makeup and fashion, but they are things that I like - no, LOVE. Any who...I am gonna start posting fashion/makeup blogs. Let me know what you think =)

Today I am spending a quiet day on vacation by the lake. It is chilly, we have a fire going, and the family is playing cards with the neighbors. It's the perfect day for a cozy, natural look.

Hair:

My hair was softly straightened, but I put it in a bun using spin pins last night, and now it has this natural looking wave that I decided to keep this morning. (PS: Spin pins have changed my life and you can get them at any drug store or Claire's for hardly anything!)

Clothing:

My scarf is from Dillards...But I cut off the tag, so I have no clue on earth what the name brand is. Sorry.

Hat...hm, I forgot where...but I know Anthropology has some just like it and probably even prettier. 

Shirt...haha maybe Target...but I forgot. Wow, I have a fantabulous memory. 

My unseen jeans are just some medium wash "Taylors" from Delia's. They are so comfortable. 

I am wearing ash gray classic TOMS...(I got my second pair of TOMS, classic burlaps, for Christmas!)

Jewelry:

The charm bracelet is by Andrea Candella. It was handmade in Spain. I added a Rembrant harp charm to it...which I am not sure if you can see it in the picture...I know charm bracelets are back in style and having a bracelet full of them is cool or whatever, but ever since I was little, I wore a bracelet full of them and it was obnoxious and heavy so I am opting for a single charm that is perfect for me, a harp. Sorry for the run-on sentence, haha. I also have Andrea Candella earrings hidden under my hair.

The other two leather bracelets are Fossil. I got them on sale a couple days ago and haven't taken them off. One is pink leather with the classic Fossil button and antiqued metal. The next, my favorite of the two, is a bracelet of two thin, camel colored, leather bands knotted together with a little charm with a tree on it. By the Fossil button there is a little bird. It's adorable. They were originally $40-$50 and I got them for $15 each!

Makeup:

I guess I would call this my "Winter Blush" look. I wear it often because with one eyeshadow palette, it's very simple and quick.

First things first, I cleanse with the Clarisonic Mia. (Quick tip for Clarisonic: use it on your lips to brighten the color in the morning and your eyes. The vibrations will make them appear more open and awake. It reduces the morning puffiness.) Next I put a little of Obagi pore reducer stuff on my face focusing on my nose, forehead, or any problem spot. 

I use all BareMinerals face products. First I apply the concealer in concentrated amounts under my eyes and around my nose. Then I apply it everywhere. Today I left out warmth and just put on "First Class" blush. 

Then I lined my eyes with "Patio Party," a brown, shimmery liner by BareMinerals. Then I took out my Too Faced "Naked Eye" palette. This kit is common sense. I used the crease colors for the crease duh and blended the light colors from my lid to brow. I worked up the lightest pink for my highlight under my brow. Next I used my new favorite mascara, Maybelline's "Falsies." I applied about three coats. I have very short lashes, but they are at least thick. This mascara not only lengthens them to look like false lashes, it thickens them even more without clumps. Seriously, this stuff is like sent from heaven. Every girl needs to use it. 

Whoa, this pic is creepyish, haha. I see you...

but look at those lashes! BAM!

for someone like me who has no lashes lol, that's big!

Lastly, I used some C.O. Bigelow minty gloss from Bath and Body Works. I am not really a fan of the store, but when I went in to look for after Christmas sales, it was only a dollar...and OMG, it smells amazing, feels icy, and really plumps my lips. 

Thanks for reading.
