First Post and First Day of Summer

Oh hey!

So this is my first post and I feel kind of weird about it because how even do you blog. I was able to do my makeup today for the first time in a WEEK because I had pinkeye that lasted 6 whole days. It was actually the worst. I had to throw away my new Urban Decay liquid eyeliner (and that shit's 20 bucks so I was kinda pissed) as well as some Smashbox mascara. I cleaned off my eyeshadow and cleaned my brushes so I'm okay on those.

So today for my first day wearing makeup again, I decided to do something simple and avoid eyeliner just in case. So this is just kind of an every day brown look, sans eyeliner. Which is sad because I wear winged eyeliner every day and I hate not wearing it.

 The close ups turned out not fantastic but we're just gonna ignore that.
 I look like I should be in Les Miserables in this picture because damn dat stare.
And this is the completely finished look complete with the rest of my face done as well.

I used my Urban Decay Oz palette in Theodora pretty much exclusively for this look. I was kind of lazy and didn't feel like breaking out another palette.
 I used these two colors on my lid and crease. I don't know what they're called because I don't think UD named them but hey I could be wrong. I used the warm tan color on my lid and blended it with the darker taupe in my crease.
 I used this warm maroon-ish brown in my outer corner.
Aaaaand I used this color as a highlight. It's totally not a highlight color. I don't know what I was doing. Buuuut, like I said, I was feeling a little lazy.

It's my first official day of summer and for some reason I felt it was a good idea to wake up OBSCENELY early. I had to drive my brother to school at 9 but I was like hey it would probably be a good idea to wake up at 7:30. Which was weird because I am so not a morning person. But I was excited to do my makeup and also put on this outfit:
I was so excited to wear this and I don't even know why. The skirt's from Forever 21, the shirt's from American Eagle, and I think that necklace is from Tilly's. I felt like it was really summery, and then I looked outside and it's all rainy and gloomy but I don't care I'm wearing it anyway.

Also, as I was driving I remembered my nails:
I did these a few days ago. I don't usually paint them pink but I was feelin antsy. SO this is OPI Charged Up Cherry (my boyfriend got it for me a while ago) and some glitter shit on my ring finger.

Today I'm planning on hanging out with my friend Lauren after she's done with her last final. We're gonna visit our friend David who just finished his freshman year of college, and we haven't seen him in a while so that should be fun. Then we're planning on going to a picnic barbecue whatever thing and then going to dinner and stuff with my friend Kendall. So it should be a good first day of summer.

If only the sun would come out.
