Did you buy the Pumpkin King grab bag, and aren't really sure what to do with these awesome colors? 
Well, have no fear, for I have come up with a SUPER simple two color look that will make your heart swoon, and get you out the door in a hurry.

Start with using a white base & some Awesome Sauce. 
This will really make the main color in this look POP.


Color 1
Zero

I know what you're thinking "White? All over the lid?! Are you mad?"
We'll maybe I am a little mad, but aren't we all?!
But this is a super special white, that isn't what it seems.
Trust me, and slather a healthy amount of Zero on the inner lid, middle lid, crease, and inner lower lash line.


Color 2
Ragdoll Lover

Add Ragdoll Lover to the outer lid, upper crease, and outer lower lash line.
Take a blending brush, and blend where Zero & Ragdoll Lover come together.

Lastly add your favorite liner & mascara.

Madd Tutorial 64

Were you fortunate enough to grab one or both of the Saved By The Bell inspired grab bags that Mo offered up a few weeks ago?
I was super stoked, and able to grab them both.
While they're both awesome bags, the Miss Bliss Years colors were calling out to me this morning, so I decided to do a looks with a few of the colors from it. 

Also, I must mention that I had a horrible time trying to capture the correct color of these gorgeous neutrals. On some of the photos the color on the lid is more accurate, and on others it's the photo of the color itself.

Enjoy :)


Color 1
Preppy
(color on the lid is more accurate)

Pop a generous amount of Preppy onto the inner & middle lid. On the middle lid portion you're going to want to stay below the crease. Also, apply to the inner lower lash line.

Color 2
Belding Brown
(color on the lid is more accurate)

Add Belding Brown right to the center of the crease. 
Using a fluffy brush I made a "sweeping" motion to distribute Belding Brown  across the entire crease area.

Color 3
KKTY
(color of the product itself is more accurate)

 Lastly apply KKTY to the outer lid, crease, and lower lash line.
With a blending brush blend Belding Brown & KKTY together.

Liner & Mascara

About 2 weeks ago Mo over at Madd Style Cosmetics released this awesome, spur of the moment collection, inspired by the Disney movie Aladdin.
These colors are jewel toned, soft, and oh so freaking gorgeous.
I really enjoyed using these colors in this look...

Color 1
Arabian Nights

Arabian Nights is going to go on the inner lid - slightly onto the middle lid, and along the inner lower lash line.

Color 2
Magic Carpet Ride

Staying below the crease apply Magic Carpet Ride  to the middle of the lid, almost  to the edge - overlapping where Arabian Nights is on the middle, and blend Arabian Nights into Magic Carpet Ride.

Color 3
Into the Sunset

Add Into the Sunset to the crease. Blend with Arabian Nights & Magic Carpet Ride.

Color 4
Diamond in the Rough

Lastly put Diamond in the Rough on the outer lid, and outer lower lash line.
When you apply Diamond in the Rough it's going to overlap Magic Carpet Ride & Into the Sunset.
Be sure to blend this area thoroughly.
