St Patty's Day Look




Last week the color of the week for BFTE was 1939 (sparkly dark green). I decided to order  and picked out some other greens and a gold for my sample colors so I could do a St. Patty's day look. I've been digging green looks lately. This is like my 4th posting of a green look in a month.



My look reminds me of carmel apples for some reason. That sounds yummy and are the right colors for St. Patty's Day.

BFTE Mermaid (Duochrome)

Autumn at the Daily Glamour was having a contest to win some BFTE Cosmetics and you won by being the first person to name all 3 products she was wearing in her eye look. I got 2 of them on my first try. I didnt realize she had said it was between me and another girl to guess the remaining one. I was off playing with makeup during the time. It ended up being Mermaid from BFTE. I hadn't used my sample in forever so I decided to do a quick look the next day using it. 

I remember first seeing this color in a video from Xsparkage and knew I had to have it. Im hoping one of these days they will put a duochrome for the color of the week because I would like to have this one fullsize (as well as whisper). Its a shiny paleish yellow with a green a duochrome.

*BFTE Mermaid
*BFTE Dragonslayer
*BFTE Meteor Shower

*Applied Eye Primer
*Applied UD Liner Zero to Lid, smooth out a little with fingers.

My hubby ordered me 2 mustache earrings. I dont really care for facial hair like mustaches, goatees, and beards. But I do think the mustache thing is cute!! My friend from High School and the rest of her family must love that they can now find mustache things. They were obsessed with it before this craze for years. Her dad has a mustache that is similar. I think I might have maybe only seen him once without the mustache. Met them in Germany back in 1997 when we moved there. My dad was stationed at a base there. 



I like the 2nd pair more which I will be posting in my St Patty's Day Look Post. I believe he bought this for me off of ebay. If you would like to purchase Mermaid you can find it at the BFTE Cosmetics website. Its $6.50 for a Full Size and $2.00 for Sample. They always have a color of the week that is full size with 3 samples of your choosing for $6.00. So you could also go that way and choose mermaid for one of your 3 samples. :)

Purple Smoke

I did a quick smokey purple look on Monday before I went out shopping. My work every few months gives us a double discount. Us Ross workers go crazy during this time. Ive actually was only looking for work clothes, but I did get me a cute Hello Kitty Bag!! This wasnt applied perfectly since I was in a hurry. Did my whole face and eye makeup in like 20 minutes. Then I quickly snapped some pics and only had a few that came out.

I used some BFTE colors again. Ive been neglecting my body needs lately and using my BFTE colors. They have such a wide selection of colors from matte to shimmer to satin to duo chromes and every color you could probably think of. Every week they have a color of the week. For $6.00 ($10 after shipping)you get a full size of COTW and then you get to choose 3 samples of your choice (each sample is regularly $2.00). Ive been liking the COTWs lately so I keep purchasing.
