Zooeyblue, Thanks! and I love some of the names they come up with over...they make me giggle. :D

Nory, Thanks! and my hair is really new...I just haven't pulled the flat iron out in ages and I accidentally cut my bangs too short, but I really like them. ;)

Lily, I have been having a lot of fun playing with different colors and have discovered some that look really flattering with my eyes, but if I'm in a hurry neutrals are always what I go for. I guess because it doesn't take much thought. It's kind of hard to mess up.

Chaye, Thanks so much! I really like my bangs too and I think they frame my face better. :)

Eyes: Blackout Primer from lid to just below crease and blended up past crease, then NYX Pearl base from crease up and blended and Intergalactic over the entire lid.

Cheeks: Maybe Baby with a little Petal over the top. (Didn't like the look with Maybe Baby, so I through a little Petal on top)

Lippie: Centerfold

I am not really thrilled with this look, but I figured I took pic, so I might as well post it. :? Also, I am trying put together a look to go with the color in my top. This was one suggestion and one of the others was some bronzey colors. I guess I will try that tomorrow...

Opinions anyone...

Susan, do you have Brimstone? I did a look with fire in tear duct and highlight, Honey on the lid, and Brimstone on the outer V. Used Aubergine as a liner (very close to lash-line). And I wore a shirt that was nearly the same colour as the one you're wearing. I loved the look. You're warm, so that should work with your colouring.
7 Ivory: 1.5 BG: 0.5 Olive... for now...

I think I read your post and was think of copying your look, it sounds so pretty. ;) I have Fire, Aubergine and I think I have a sample of Brimstone...I will have to check.

Thanks!

I can't really see what Intergalactic looks like on your lids, but that Pearl may not be the best choice for highlight. To work with the teal in Intergalactic, I would suggest something else under brow. Frosty worked really nicely for me, but I didn't layer anything underneath but the primer. I also used it in the inner corner.
If you have Lunar and Martian, that would be a nice combo for this top as well.

The lips look nice, but maybe you want something peachier for this look, like Ingenue? You should keep petal though or try Foxxy for a little shimmer on the cheeks.

I know I can't get a good pic that shows the color, but it is purple on me even under the blackout primer. Thats why I put the pearl base just above the crease and blended otherwise it was really dark and kinda looked like somebody punched me in the eye :( . I didn't even use a highlight color under the brow, it's all intergalactic. Everything seemed so sparkly, so I just left it alone.

You know whats funny is I had Foxxy and Ingenue in my had ready to use and put it back :lol:

Always go with your first idea, haha! Sorry Intergalactic isn't working out. Can you get NYX makeup? You could try the same one I'm using, chunky eye pencil in Slate. Or, just try to see how the bronze shadows work.

Well, I don't have much of SN yet, but I have a few things coming as well as the foundation and lippie that I have already, so I wanted to do a look with what little SN I do have.

Foundation: About 1:8 Ivory/Ebony SN (I think it was a mix of original and medium)
Cheeks: EDM Pink Snowflakes
Eyes: Neutrogena 3-in-1 concealer, EDM silver bells in outer corner and crease, Boots No. 7 all over lid, Achetype spun sugar in inner third and under brow
Lips: SN Aria black label
