I decided to use some of my new colors that I got from BFTE Cosmetics. I originally did this look on Tuesday. But I didnt like how it turned out. I then saw that Easymakeup makeupblog on FB had some Cut Crease Picture Tutorials. I used it yesterday and decided to recreate my tuesday look using the same tutorial.
The colors reminded me of Valentine's Day. Vday is one of my favorite Holidays. Probably because of the colors, hearts, love, etc... I love romantic stuff. I just find it to be so cute. :) I love chick flicks and of course my hubby hates them. I love Pretty Woman, The Notebook, Grease, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Clueless, Dear John, Bridgit Jones's Diary, Sweet Home Alabama, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Breakfast at Tiffanys, When Harry Met Sally, Devil Wears Prada, etc...
Next month Ill start having a chick flick marathon. Have a favorite girl movie you love to watch?? I have some I havent watched in a few years like Legally Blonde, 27 Dresses, The Notebook, A Walk to Remember, and many more.
2 people at work today said my look reminded them of my favorite character from Alice in Wonderland, the Cheshire Cat.
This is the tutorial I used to create this look. I didnt follow it completely but I did the basics. :)

Other Notes:
My hubby got me the Samsung DV300 Dual View Camera for Vday/Anniversary. I'm still trying to figure out the right settings to have it on to take pictures for my blog. Sorry if my pictures above are dark. Everytime I use the flash im whited out in the picture. I like that this camera includes a Beauty Shot setting which will be good for full face pics once I get the settings right.
This look I did for my last minute Christmas Shopping on Saturday. I also was wearing my Hat my hubby got for me. It's Vanity Smurf!! <3 We found it at walmart for $10. I couldnt believe it was of him, my favorite smurf. <3 I dont know why I always loved Vanity, but I always thought he was cute. Maybe its because my Mom always said to me "Vanity, Vanity, Vanity". She said this because I would look in mirrors or at a reflection on something to make sure my hair or face looked ok. lol I wasn't admiring myself. lol
Isn't it cute?? I get compliments on this hat everywere I go. :) I found it at their site but it says In Stores Only. You can see if it's avalable though at your local store here.

So hope everyone got what they wanted for Christmas. I got a External Hard Drive so I can store my Pictures for my blog. :) Which is Awesome!! Also got a Ulta Gift card that I cant wait to use along with some DVDs/Blu Rays (Brave in 3D!!! :D I finally got to watch it and it was super cute. Also my hubby got me a Snorks DVD and Care Bears Original Series Collection set. <3), Fuzzy Pajamas, Money, Hello Kitty Stuff, Makeup Bags, and Candy. With some christmas money so far I bought a snapware storage thingy for some makeup, the Bare Minerals Fresh and Fabulous Set (was on sale for $19 and I had a 20% off coupon on top of that. :D), and a couple of NYX Liners. :)
The next look in my Monsters University Mini Makeup Series is Randy Boggs. You would remember him from Monster's Inc as Randall. He was the one that turned invisible and was in competition with Sulley.
