Off Topic...Ok, so I couldn't find a "good" picture of Nene's Makeup from that particular episode, so I fudged a little by using the book cover.

Silver/Gray Smokey Eyes & Vampy Dark Lips
This look is "On Trend" for Fall 2009.
I entered a contest on YouTube. The challenge was to create a makeup look based on a cartoon or comic book character. Generally, I'm conservative, so this was a leap for me.

PEACOCK
I LOVE Peacock Feathers. I recently acquired some of these beauties from my local Ashley Stewart. You can find some like them @ my friend Candiecc from YouTube's website.

I did this look for a contest on YouTube. I was wearing a smaller pair of peacock feather earrings. I enjoyed making the video. I prefer to just get to business with the makeup, but she wanted us to chat it up. LOL

When I 1st started collecting makeup about a year ago, I created my own custom palettes. I used DVD holders, double sided tape & wax paper. This vid received almost as many views as my homemade pizza vid.
I upgraded to Coastal Scents Palettes. They now sell for $6.95 each.
I did a review on the palette & a blending brush from coastal scents.
