Can I tell you just how much this little pallet has grown on me? LOL It's surprised me a lot over this past week from using it. But today here is look #2.

I wanted to really make the brighter blue color in the pallet pop, but not on my lid...on my lower lash line. I think I achieved that look today.

I also adore the peach blush and pinky nude color lip option I went with, it was perfect for this colorful bold eye look.

I went with Loreal Infallible Lip Paints in Spicy Blush and Elf cream blush in Peach Perfection.

I think I my concerns are slowly dwindling down about this pallet. I have created a beautiful look that I am so very excited about. I wore it to Caleb's school for volunteering and I got so many great compliments about it.

I think keeping the rest of the face on the more neutral side was the key in keeping this look to a more "wearable" stage. Especially while being at Caleb's school.

Did I tell you that no one at Caleb's school, truth be told, even close friends of mine know about my makeup blog? They just think I'm some makeup crazed person who enjoys going all out on makeup every day. Of course, that part is totally true, but I still feel like I'm doing my blog "behind closed doors" (so to speak). Not that its wrong or anything, but I just don't have people to talk to about makeup in my social circle so I get my fix by coming here and blurting it all out to you guys. But sometimes it feels almost like leading a double life. Isn't that strange that I feel that way?

Ok, yall did't come here to listen to me talk about leading a double life LOL Let's get back to our task at hand.

Our Royal Blue Lines Tutorial:

What is important to make the blue color pop on the lower lash line is that the black eyeliner is smudged from the waterline down to the lash line and the blue applied over top. It will change the blue tone just a hair, but it comes out stunningly beautiful!!

I really enjoyed this look I created and was so excited to show it off to you. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

I will be doing another look next week using the Concrete Runway pallet, this should be my last tutorial for this pallet and we will move along to some other pallets.

Of course you know today is Friday here and I usually like to show off what Caleb is up to on the weekends so you will see those over the next couple of days. But, I have been throwing around the idea of making a vlog style video of a day in the life of us. But I'm not quite sure how to go about doing that yet. It would be similar to my Daily Life photos that I post, usually on the weekends, but in more of a video type. But I'm still undecided so far.

So there you go....my thoughts on vlogs. Let me know what you think. I will see you all again with some Daily Life photos and again next week with makeup posts. Until next time, take care.
