GAH! My drive to Lake Oswego was a big fail. I had errands to run up there but had to turn around at Willamette Valley Vineyards and drive all the way back when I realized I had left at home an important item, without which the errand would be impossible to achieve. So, it looks like I’ll have to do another round trip up and down the two-hour drive tomorrow (which, by the time this entry gets published, would be today).
The post-game traffic was ridiculous, only adding to my distaste for all things football. Some couple was tailgating me like crazy in the densely packed I-5, and I’m not too comfortable with having my ass only figuratively kissed. When the traffic came to an abrupt halt and I stopped, the tailgater had to swerve to miss me and ended up stopping off the road, just beside me. Um, hello! Two-second rule! Grr!
Enough road-raging, though. At least I have an FOTD to share with you guys. To suit the trickle of autumn that I’ve begun to feel, I decided to go for a dramatic matte red lip. At first, I thought I’d do the same black eyeliner but thought it’d brighten it up with navy blue instead. Cuz, you know, I’m a rebel like that, rawr!

This is the same upper-eyelid eyeliner technique as my most recent eyeliner tutorial for monolids, except I drew the tail thicker and longer and, obviously, the eyeliner color is different. So, yes, you CAN do a more noticeable eyeliner with this technique


whoa, my eye looks gross in multiple photos grouped together like this LOL… kind of like lotus boobs (DON’T GOOGLE THAT)
…
you totally googled it, didn’t you? i warned you.
Eye makeup:
- Eyeko Tinted Cream (I think I should have done a sheer nude or neutral shimmery shadow instead b/c I feel that this cream only accentuated my dark circles)
- MAC eyeshadow in Flashtrack alone lash lines
- Prestige liquid eyeliner in Azure
- Rimmel London khol eye pencil in white
- Rimmer London Glam Eyes Mascara
- Shisem Sol# false lashes (quickly becoming my favorite false lashes)

Face and lips:
- ELF All Over Cover Stick in Light
- Silk Naturals foundation
- Silk Naturals Date Bait Powder
- Everyday Minerals in Good China to highlight nose bridge
- Physicians’ Formula Retro Glow Mozaic Bronzer in Bronze Glow
- E.L.F. All Over Color Stick in Lilac
- NYX blush in Natural
- CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain in Teasing Blush

Thanks for viewing
I am alienman. Writing a small blurb about myself is the hardest thing to do. "Blurb" is a funny word.

I like this look, clean and yet dramatic.
I’m a fan of navy eyeliners. I think black makes me look too severe.
OHMYGAT.
