Dangerous Part 2

Good evening everyone!  I'm going to make today's post short and sweet.  Can you believe I've been out of the house from 8:45am this morning until now (11:45pm)?  I took a short break for lunch during work to reply to comments and emails, but otherwise, I haven't had a moment to even think about blogging.  But, here I am!  So, I tried another look today with my new Urban Decay Dangerous palette, which, unfortunately, seems to be sold out at the moment. :(

Following the same technique for my previous Dangerous tutorial, I used these colors instead:

I used Gunmetal for the inner half of my upper eyelid, Oil Slick for the outer corner of my upper eyelid, and Haight along my bottom lash line.  I also enhanced my upper lash line eyeliner with Sephora Glitter Eyeliner in Silver and applied Daiso false lashes. (Which you can enter to win in my latest GIVEAWAY!)

Well, that's it for tonight!  Off to bed...I know it's early for a Friday night, but this Cat needs to hit the sack! :D

Sweet Dreams!

Dangerous by Urban Decay

Urban Decay makes sultry, smoldering eyes easy with their Dangerous palette, which was a part of my holiday goody showcase a few days ago.  I love how colorful this palette is while remaining dark and gritty.  It also comes with a 24/7 eyeliner pencil in Rockstar as well as a travel-sized Primer Potion in Greed.

Today, I'm going to show you guys my take on Dangerous with this look:

These are the colors I used to get it:

Clockwise from top: 

Mildew, an olive green with golden shimmer

Rockstar, a shimmery, smoky gunmetal plum

Oil Slick, a shimmery black with chunky silver glitter

To start, I'm going to apply Greed to my eyelids:

It's a light-gold primer that applies very shimmery, but becomes more subtle once I pat it evenly on my eyelid.  The formula is very similar in texture to the Original potion, smooth, silky, and light.

Next, I apply Mildew to the inner half of my upper eyelid:

Despite the icky name, Mildew is a very pretty color.  I really like earthy greens.  They give you that bit of color without looking too conspicuous.  Now, I'm going to apply some Oil Slick to the outer corner of my upper eyelid:

Then, I'm going to apply Rockstar shadow along my bottom lash line:

It's a very edgy shade of plum, almost more gunmetal than purple.  We're halfway there!  I'm just going to smoke and soften the edges with a fluffy blending brush:

Using a creamy black gel liner, I'm going to draw a tapered line along my upper lash line, thin towards the inner corner and thick towards the outer corner.  I'm also going to lightly line my bottom lash line as well.

Apply mascara and glittery false lashes and I'm done!

To keep my eyes the center of attention, I'm going to apply a sheer, nude gloss to my lips.  Urban Decay's Lip Junkie Gloss in Wallflower is perfect for this look:

Overall look:

Don't I look DANGEROUS?!  Umm...no, not really.  Lol.  Still, I think it's unique and sexy, while remaining quite wearable.  I dare you guys to try it!  Haha! :D
