Foxy Lips & Lazy Sundays

Don't you just love those lazy Sunday afternoons... after you've slept well past noon and eaten anything you wanted where ever you wanted? I sure do. I feel like I should have probably taken some time to study but I was just so busy playing with makeup! Once I turned my living room into my own personal mini studio (as shown below) I pulled out some inspiration from online that i've had flagged from some time now.

<<< Looks like such a mess but it was very helpful in completing the following fun, goofy and silly makeup looks. 

Now i'm no pro but I am expecting to one day become one! I have actually applied to a makeup artistry school in Toronto for April 2013. ** Finger crossed that I get in! :)

Now for the fun part. Believe it or not these looks took me well over three hours (give or take) while watching one of my previously mentioned favorite television series, Lie to Me. It was definitely an enjoyable afternoon to say the least! 

All of these looks I found online, I take no credit in originally creating the ideas, these are just my versions and I hope that you enjoy them as much as I do! 

The first look was the lovely red fox. This one is my favorite!! So cute yet foxy, no pun intended. 





 I would love to go into detail about the product that I used and the special types names and numbers of the brushes I used but I just don't keep track of those things. In all honesty most of the colors used to create all the looks can be thanked to my left over Halloween face paint. Super pigmented and left a lovely glossy finish. Plus they are really easy to blend which is key to a flawless result. So here you have it, foxy lips.

The remaining looks I don't care for as much so i'm just going to go on ahead and mix them all up and in no particular order. 




 The hippo was pretty cute too I might add. Especially the buck-toothed one haha :)


Looks a little upside-down but these next two are meant to be watermelon themed. The lighting isn't the greatest so the little black seeds are barely noticeable but they are still there! (Every detail counts!)


And so the final look... more of a Valentine's Day themed lip which by the way i'm still rockin' while hanging out & blogging in my living room. Good thing the roommate always thinks i'm a weirdo o so this sort of thing doesn't even surprise her haha.

Anyways, enjoy your last few hours of a lazy Sunday!
I know I will... Cal Lightmen will make sure of it
