Make Up Loves

I have always enjoyed wearing make up. Not because I think I need it to make myself look "prettier", I genuinely enjoy putting it on. I used to sneak on my mom's make up when I was younger (thanks, mom!). I love to buy new make up when the funds are flowing, and I love experimenting with new methods. This video inspired me to broaden my make up horizons:


This is Sherri Dupree Bemis, lead singer of Eisley (give 'em a listen!) I love her style, her clothes, her music, and her hair! :)

Currently, I am into liquid eye-liner. I used to hate it, until I saw the video below. I'm not talking about the kind you put on with a wand. I'm talking about this kind with a brush. I'm not sure how to describe the consistency, it's more of a cream than a liquid. It's called HIP High Intensity I believe.

It's a little pricey ($10), but it will last me FOREVER. I've been using it for months and have barely made a dent. Tonia first recommended it to me. She uses the ELF brush because she thought the one that came with the eyeliner was too pokey. Personally, I've tried both and I like the one it comes with. It stays on all day long and comes off easily in the shower, despite what the video says. You may have to scrub a little. I like the look of it, too. It doesn't smudge after a long day of running around with kids or even after sweating through a workout.

I also tried the cream blush she mentions (though not the exact brand) and I actually liked it. It lasts longer is more noticeable. It feels weird and kind of cakey for about the first half hour of having it on, but after awhile the feeling goes away.

Anyone have any make up recommendations? Especially in the mascara department? I've been using the orange Covergirl mascara for a long time, and I love it. I think I need to mix it up, though. Let me know if you try anything you see here! :)

P.S. Here are a few Eisley videos to make it easy for you!

Also to note: Sherri is doubly awesome because she shops at Forever 21. I have now seen her in 2 dresses that I own! The one in this second video I just purchased to wear to a wedding this weekend.
