Sugar Skull

September 27, 2012 By

I love Halloween and here is my quick tutorial simaking a Sugar Skull with what you probably already have in my makeup bag.

1. Prime face with pale foundation mixed with pale concealer and cover face.

2. Add some light pink to lips and cheeks.

3. Draw design with black eyeliner pencil.

4. Using lipstick fill in the design, but not the eye sockets or nose.

5. Using charcoal eye shadow darken eye sockets and nose.

6. Line eyes with eyeliner, and use mascara to lengthen eyelashes (or apply fake eyelashes for an even more dramatic look)

7. Finish the look off by pinning a flower in your hair, the larger the better.

Wordless Wednesday CSA Harvest

September 26, 2012 By

This past week our CSA had Lima Beans and Kiwi Berries. I adore both. Lima Beans are hard to shell but so worth the effort. Notice the color variations of the Lima Beans, aren’t the purple ones beautiful? Then there are the Kiwi Berries and Blue Berries. Kiwi Berries, also known as Passion Poppers, are small, hairless kiwis you can just pop in your mouth. So delicious!
