Makeup, Birchbox and CrossFit!?! Wait what?!

Makeup of the day: 

I did my eyes with a new mineral shadow I recieved in my Birchbox yesterday! It is made by Inika and its called Eternal Marine. If you would like a Birchbox invite let me know. This was what was in this months box:

Here's a closeup of the shadow:

Im not used to using loose powder shadows so I didnt really know what to do. I used my browbone color from the wet n wild palette and put the Inika Eternal marine all over my lid dry, but it didnt seem dark enough so I got my brush wet and reapplied. I used my dark brown from the WNW palette in my outer corner and blended it with Jordana duo called Good Match. It has a nice cream color and a light brown shade that is great for blending two colors together.

Overall, the look was pretty but it didnt stay on all day. 

Workout: Today I did CrossFit and it kicked my butt! 

Here was the WOTD:

All I can say is ouch.. I was definitely feeling it within 2 hours! The workout was fun and extremely challenging for someone like me that is used to light cardio and weightlifting. I enjoyed the kettlebell swings so I think I will incorporate those into the correct day. We went to Bold City CrossFit. They have a free class on saturday mornings!!

BOLD CITY CROSS FIT

 I will go back again next Saturday and hopefully bring some people with me. Who's up for it?? Im sooo happy tomorrow is Sunday and I absolutely will NOT be working out! Oh and by the time I turned off my Polar Ft7 I had burned over 800 calories!!! Wow! 

Please ask any questions you may have. I would love to hear from you:)

Makeup and workout of the day

Today was a Meet Matt(e) Nude look!! I used my trusty Wet n Wild Drinking a glass of shine palette for my browbone. That cream shade is perfect!! Next up I used Matt Malloy on my lid with Matt Wood in the outer corner and crease. I used Matt Rosen to blend it all together. It was super pretty! I am really loving matte eye looks lately.

Makeup and workout of the day

My eye makeup look of the day was my Wet n Wild palette called Desert Festival, it is part of the Fergie center stage collection. 

I love the colors in this palette! It made a really pretty look for today: 

I will definitely be doing this look again very soon. It stayed all day even through my leg workout! This palette came in an Ipsy bag a couple months ago. Again, sign up for Ipsy, its awesome! You get a makeup bag with 5-6 full size products a month for only $10. I can sent you an invite if you want.

Time for Leg Day:

Today I had dinner plans so I skipped the ab/ad ductor machines and I forgot to do calf raises... I did 100 walking lunges though so I wouldnt feel so guilty! I am probably going to workout tomorrow to show a friend my back workout. 

*Clean and press-30lb barbell

*Step ups-10lb

Im still taking it easy and trying to listen to my body. I have some muscle bruising so I have to be careful. Let me know what your leg day is like. I would love to hear! 

Night,

Makeup and Workout of the day, with a little pep talk!

Makeup of the day: Today I used my favorite brown shadow by MAC called Mulch. I also used my favorite Wet n Wild palette called Drinking a Glass of Shine. I used the lightest color on my browbone and the dark brown in my outer corner and crease. I topped it off with the MAC shadow. I lined my bottom lash with a Wet n Wild liner called copper. It is a really pretty shimmery brown. 

I used my Loreal BB cream all over my face just for a more matte look. I wore my      Be a Bombshell lip crayon and lip gloss today. I was going for red lips!!

Here are the names: 

Lets talk Gym time: 

All of these exercises were done 4 sets of 10 except for the z bar curls. I dont do those anymore because they always hurt my wrists. 

Upright Row- 30lbs

Lying tricep extension-15lbs

Cable Pull over- 60lbs

Hammer curls- 12.5 lbs

Cable tricep Extension- 50lbs

Biceps curl- 30lbs

Tricep machine-30lbs

I finished with 10 minutes on that transformer thing again!! Hahahahaha

I saw this today and thought it was great! This has been how I have been so successful in the gym while my crew fell apart. I just kept going no matter how sad I was that I was alone. It was really hard at first and still is sometimes but I just tell myself that I cant get where I want to be sitting on my couch. I have to keep moving and eating healthy. I try to remember that what other people say or think about me isnt my problem. I know who I am! 

I hope this helps some of you that are struggling to workout and feel alone. I would love to answer questions about fitness and makeup. Please dont be scared to ask.

Todays Makeup: 

I went for a shimmery forest green color today from my Wet n Wild palette called Going in the Wild. First I put my Ulta eye crayon in a dark green color all over my lid and then I put the color on the bottom right all over my lid. I have a better picture so you can see what I used and where: 

Does that help more???

Here is a closeup of the eye pencil:

This palette was a special addition release from Wet n Wild and I found it at Rite Aid in Michigan!! I was so happy:) I had been looking forever.

Makeup and Workout of the day!

Todays makeup is again the NAKED3!! 

I am obsessed with this palette. I used my Jordana eye shadow stick first as a base:

I then put strange on my browbone, burnout and dust on my lid and I blended darkside in my outer corner and crease. I also put my jordana stick shadow under my bottom lashes and smudged burnout into it. 

I used a couple different blushes today. Physicians Formula Happy Booster in Natural topped with MAC Well Dressed. It is a really pretty combination. 

Heres a pic: 

I am really loving this pallette but Im not loving my camera skills!!!

Makeup of the day!

Naked 3 round two today: 

I used a bunch of colors again today!! Heres the look: 

Im not a good picture taker but I tried today. My eyes look so much better in person...

I used my mirabella primer on my lids and started with strange on my browbone. From there I put trick and fizz on my lid and factory in my outer corner and crease. I blended it all together in the crease with nooner. I added a little bit of dust to my lid for a pink pop and lined my bottom lash line with buzz. I hope you like it!! Sorry for the bad pictures, Im trying though for real, for real! 

Why do my eyes look weird?? See how pretty this palette is for green eyes?? I love it and cant wait to do more looks soon. 

Oh and yes I know my eyebrows are bushy!!! Im about to go wax right now.

Makeup and workout of the day

Makeup of the day: 

My eyes today are the Pop beauty trio pallette called Smokin Hot. The colors are nice and blendable. I used the lightest color on my lid on the inner corner. I applied the black to my outer corner and crease. Then I took the middle color to blend the two others together. I used the cream color in the top right of my Wet n Wild pallette for my brownbone. To blend my browbone and lid together I use a light brown shadow like the 3 color pallette you see in the top left. That pallette is from Wet n Wild and is called Enlisted for Beauty. I lined my eyes with my old faithful Jordana Fabuliner in black and then smudged the black eye shadow over it. 

I did my face the same as yesterday except for my blush. Today I used a pretty pink color by Be a Bombshell cosmetics called Sweet Cheeks. You can layer it make it really pop! 

I also got this cheek color from my Ipsy bag. Do you know what Ipsy is?? It is a monthly subscription service that sends you a different make up bag with 5-6 full size products in it EVERY MONTH. It only costs $10. I love getting my Ipsy bag because it is a good way to try out new makeup products. If you want an invitation to Ipsy let me know and I will be happy to send you one by email!

Lets talk Leg Day:

*Clean and press with a 30 lb straight bar

*Single leg squats no weight (i was scared) haha

* Step ups- 7 blocks high with 10 lb plate in each hand

* Walking lunges across the gym. About 88 lunges (man it burns)

* Leg Abductor 60 lb

* Leg Adductor 60 lb

* 10 minutes on the Elliptical on the Random Hill setting. I usually don't do any cardio on leg days because its usually pretty rough... But since i had ten minutes left, might as well.

Makeup and Workout of the day

Today's makeup: 

The Balm cosmetics eye shadow pallette in Meet Matt(e) Nude. I love matte eyeshadows! I used to be scared to use them because I wasnt sure how, but now that Ive used them a lot, I am in love! 

I used my Pixi bronzer today just for a different look. The color is called Subtly Suntouched. It looked very natural and I will continue to use it. It was in my Ipsy bag two months ago and this is the second time I used it. What can I say, Im a creature of habit.. 

I used a couple colors from two different Wet n Wild pallettes:

I used the two cream color shadows. I used the matte color on my brow bone and the shimmer under my bottom lashes. 

My blush today was Milani's Luminoso. It is an absolute favorite of mine. Supposedly,  it is a dupe of Nars Orgasm but I see big differences. Nars is a much pinker color. Luminoso is a peachy/coral color. A lot different if you ask me!

Workout of the day: 

*Upright row with a 30 lb straight bar

* Hammer curls with 10lb dumbbell

* Lying tricep extension with 15lb dumbbell 

* Cable Pull down machine 50lb

* Tricep Extension cable 40 lb

* Bicep curl machine 25lb

* Tricep Extension machine 25lb

All of these exercises were 4 sets of 10. I was with a friend and walking her through a typical workout. I showed her a few different ab exercises as well:

* russian twist crunches

* weighted bar crunches

* leg lifts holding a weighted bar

* assorted planks

Today was a good day and my arms feel weak as I type. I forgot to wear my Polar so I dont have a calorie burn picture for you.. Bummer!

Makeup of the day! January 6 2014

Todays makeup! I love TooFaced eye pallettes. This one is called Romantic Eye and all of the colors are themed after weddings and love. The shades are super blendable and have great pigment. This pallette has matte and shimmer shades so you can create many different looks. I also have their Natural at Night pallette and the newest Smokey Eyes. I would love to have them all! Im slightly obsessed :)

The blush and highlight are both made by Wet n Wild. The highlight is called Rosé Champagne Glow and the blush is Pearlescent Pink. Each of these products apply so beautifully. I love Wet n Wild!! Their products have changed so much over the years. I literally use a product from them everyday. 

My bronzer is by California Tan. I saw a review of it by Jessie Decker and decided to give it a shot. So far I love it! Here is a basic way to show you where I apply bronzer:

The newest addition to my makeup is the Bare Minerals Well Rested under eye concealer/brightener. I like it so far and I am still trying to learn how to use it. 

 I was given the mascara by Influenster. It is Rimmel Scandal Eyes. It is supposed to have a retro look to it. It makes my lashes look super long but I find it hard to make them have more volume... I am going to keep trying it out! 

My face powder is Maybelline FitMe in number 130. Im not so sure its the right shade for me, I feel like I might need to go up a shade. 

**Other products I use daily are the Jordana Fabuliner and the Elf brow kit. 

Thats it for today! Let me know what you think or if you have any questions.

Thanks Dolls,

Lundi
