Double Time - Flapper Look


I made a video! Well, sorta with help. Meeger at best, but I've already got a pile full of ideas on how to improve it. 
I was going for a theatrical nineteen twenties makeup look. Below is a list of what I used. 
Jane Iredale Disapear Concealer
Jane Iredale Circle Delete
MAC Prep and Prime Face and Eyelid Primer
Jane Liquid - Cheapy stuff
Jane Iredale PureMatte Finish Powder
Baby Powder
Jane Iredale Flushed blush (use as sculpter also inside of eyes near nasal bridge)
Jane Iredale Wine & Roses shadow (base all over lid)
Jane Iredale Smokey Grey  (outer edge)
MAC Post Haste (middle and inner lid)
MAC Black Tied (all around eyes)
Jane Iredale longest lash in Black Ice
Jane Iredale black eyeliner
Jane Iredale Spice lipliner
Jane Iredale Toffee gloss
Jane Iredale 14k silver dust (highlighter)
Warning: I got carried away with lipstick and brushes and filled in one side of my model's lips too much, hey you live you learn! It doesn't make it any less cool to me. Thanks to April for being my model extrodinare, and also to my wonderful husband who indulges me in all this silliness, and his musical wonderment (heard in video)!
Below are the photos from the end of the video - youtube has terrible resolution so I thought you might like to see them as they were orginally intended.

Eyes a flutter...


                                                


As aforementioned, I LOVE MAKE-UP! I did this little number the other night on my friend APRIL. Below is what we used, MAC paint pot - blackground, Mac shadow in expensive pink, shimmermoss, post haste, and black tied, with a jane iredale black brown eye pencil, and blinc mascara in royal blue. It is very dark, but pretty for a evening affair.
Please give me any feedback, questions or comments.

Fame! I'm gonna live forever..

 
Please excuse the total ridiculousness of this, so let me elaborate quickly. I LOVE my garden, probably more than most. So the few hours a week I get to spend in the garden are special to me. As you read before I was so twitter-pated that baby birds were hatching everywhere, I almost wanted to burst with pride. Until - this %$#*ing bird began its terrorist attack on me every time I went out to water, or weed, or even just to let my dogs out!!! I know it was all out of protection for it's young, but when your 5 plus feet away from the nest it gets to be a little ANNOYING. So before I got desperate, I needed to make light of the situation. So I took the idea of a half crazed bird, and a dorky animal lover and ran with it, possibly I ran right on out of my mind. So tell me what you think adoring fans...enjoy!
