In search of the perfect Veil

Yes I know I have wedding fever! (thankful I'm not bridezilla lol)
I had taken in my wedding dress for alteration this past weekend and it is expensive! It was pricier than I had thought. On the same day, I tried on a whole bunch of veils, from different styles to different lengths, hair clips and feathers. You have to get a veil that compliments your wedding dress, and your hair on that day too. Oh and btw, I happened to see a beautiful Vera Wang dress I absolutely loved! But man, I was in there for an alteration on my wedding dress already, how wrong it would of been if I bought a new dress, or even tried it on!


So anyways, with the help of my maid of honor, and the nice lady who did my alteration, I did find a veil I like :) I had my dress on so I was able to see which looked good and which ones didn't. I didn't know what they were called but apparently it is "Birdcage Veil". I would of said something like "fishnet veil" lol

I know it should cover my head but I couldn't clip it in correctly, hopefully my hair stylish will get it right  on my wedding day! :)

I like this one, especially with the rhinestones on it. Most comes with the flower/feather clip attached to the veil, but I want mine to be separate so I can take the veil off after the ceremony but leave the clip in during my reception. I tried it on with some flower and feather clips, but I didn't see one I really liked, so I'm going to search elsewhere for that.

LOTD Vamp Glam ;)

Today I tried my new tarte for True Blood palette. The colors are great! 
I used the "Telepath" (sparkling warm rose) on the entire lid.
Then I used the "Fairy" (shimmering pink) for the inner corners of the eye and blended up to the brow bone.
Then the "V" (sparkling crimson) on the upper and lower lash line, and out towards the corner of the eye.

The finished look.

I also used tarte for True Blood eye primer & gel-liner.

The primer works great, it's very similar to the Urban Decay potion primer.

The gel-liner works comes on really smooth, however it smeared easily and was getting into my eye. It's also really hard to wash off. It left a greasy residue under my eyes and lash line, I had to use two different make-up remover to get rid of it.

The palette also comes with a mascara too but have yet to use it.

FOTD: Red Alert ;)

Hi! Here's my fotd. Details below.

1. Clean&Clear moisturizer (which I forgot to take a picture of) 


2. Clarins Skin Illusion foundation in Honey



3. bareMinerals Matte in Light. I use this for extra coverage.


4. Hoola by Benefit bronzing powder. I use this daily, as you can see it's worn out. Great to contour the face.

5. Urban Decay baked bronzer in Gilded, gives a light shimmery glow to the skin.

6. Ulta Professional eye primer. I got this for FREE with my Ulta Coupon Reward Level 5. If you are a member of The Club at Ulta, you are familiar with that is. If you are not, this is basically what it is. They have 7+ Levels of rewards you can get, and that depends on how much you spend every quarter of the year. I spent at least $250 between March 1st-June 30th and that put me in at Level 5 reward and in that level it has a list of free goodies you can choose from. I chose the "choice of any Ulta Professional product up to $25" and that was why I chose to try this eye primer, even though the price was only $12. As of right now, I like it better than the Urban Decay potion primer. 

7. Victoria's Secret baked mineral shadow quad in Secluded Lagoon. I only used the last three colors, not the green.

8. Maybelline Line Stiletto liquid liner in Brownish-Black. I like this liner because it's easy to use but it's NOT waterproof.

9. Maybelline Great Lash mascara in Blackest Black

10. Rimmel lipstick in Red Alert

Key to red lip stick is to keep everything else as natural looking as possible otherwise you're just over-doing it.
