Eeks! I can't remember all of what I used, but here are some of the highlights to help make the look
FACE- suntwist beauty powder with my new large badger brush. I like, I like! Margin blush (ooh I'm falling in love all over again) on my cheeks with my #187 dupe that's not pink (sad face).... so far so good!
EYES- hmmmm Milani's Taffy e/s for highlight, a medley of browns cuz this started out as smokey brown look, but then MAC's Eyepopping was staring at me and I applied that to the inner corner with my pointed fluff crease duet brush... (pretty decent for a cheap brush) and Red Earth's yellow (MS108) at the tear duct. La la la! I used Loreal HiP cream blue liner on top lid (SO FREEKIN HOT!) applied with my angle brush from my synthetic brush set.. great for the consistency of the HiP liner and lastly.... Adel #117 falsies... #117 or 116. I need to hit Mindy up ASAP!
LIPS: worn down 1N lipglass and an old lipglass called Digital Jade.
That's all folks... I have so much I want to post about but my camera's dying a slow death. Why you ask? Okay you didn't, but I must vent since my cam is like 50% of my blog. Either my little sister who plays paparazzi to herself or Babyyums broke the casing around the battery compartment which then leaves the batter door ajar. I get about 3 -5 picks before the camera croaks. I planned to buy a new one anyway, but this one still worked!
Coming up: Milani Runway eye shadows, Loreal Infallible Lip Color, and my new brushes review!

Hey luv! I love your fotd's. they provide me with so many ideas and you always look so pretty. I love this look and the different layers of color on the eyes, Sometimes I can get bored with thinking of something new to do with my eye makeup since thats all I usually wear. But it cannot be as eye popping as I would like because of my uniformed militant like job. But this look is perfect! Thanks!
Beautiful look, Yums! I'm in a funk too....hence why I only wear eyeshadow once every 2 weeks. Lol! But this is fab....I love the Eyepopping addition.
I love, love, love your eyes! You have such nice skin! And I agree it's all about balance baby! As long as you are not over-doing it, then it's all gravy! :)

the break..!! girrrl, that's when the fine b-boys come out... i confess i was a b-boy groupie. a few years ago at a record release party for Wu Tang Clan, i met Crazy Legs from Rock Steady Crew, and i could barely talk, i was sooo starstuck. LOL!!
love your skin! =) can i link your blog to mine? by the way what foundation do you use? and the suntwist beauty powder, did you use it all over ur face? or just in some areas? im such a noob in make up so pardon all these questions. Keep rockin those fotds! thanks!!
@ vixenlibra: hola! i'm glad you like! being in the white collar, professional world doesn't leave me to have much creativity myself. if you've noticed, most of my looks as of late has been toned down, as trying to stay in the conservative box and being creative is quite the challenge! i'm glad you find them helpful! i'll do more of these with you in mind ;)
