Aside from classic pin up makeup, I love very dark and edgy looks. This includes defined eye makeup with a deep bold lips. I used different makeup products today aside from my normal routine. I prefer to switch things up every now and then just to get different ideas of other products.
I wanted to use the new holiday sets from Makeup Forever which are filled with goodies!
(Available at Sephora)
The items I used from these are Smoky lash mascara, HD powder, Aqua cream, Aqua Eyes #0L & 11L, Aqua liner #13. What I love from the Makeup Forever Aqua line is that everything is waterproof. This makes smudging, melting off, and moving around nearly impossible with the makeup. Especially for pencils going on the waterline which helps it to actually make the product LAST all day! Also, the Aqua liner does not have a shiny finish, which is the main reason I typically do not use liquid liners.

Hi Sara
I have a question about hair…..I remember I while ago you posted a pic of yourself with purple hair on instagram, so today i made the mistake of mixing 1 1/2 red with 1/3 purple of pravana and my hair turned out purple! Prior to this happeningy hair was red like yours. Do you think I can fade out the purple and then put pravana red over it again so it can go back like yours? Hope you answer. I’m desperate
Keep dyeing it with red! It may take a few times, but I was able to switch back to red by doing this!
You really know how to make your sharp features go the extra mile. Love the way you’ve done your lips, paired with intense liner
