Weekend Haul: Sonia Kashuk and Maybelline

I stopped by my local Target to grab some goodies this weekend! Sonia Kashuk has to be one of my favorite drug store brands so picked up their version of the beauty blender sponge (retailing at $9.99) and a single eyeshadow in Chocolate, which was on sale for $2.98! I also got my hands on the much raved about Maybelline foundation line Fit Me! I cannot wait to try these out! Reviews to follow. What did you pick up this weekend?

Faces by the Honey B: Halloween Kitty Cat

It's that time of year- a make up artist's favorite holiday! I love Halloween and one of the looks that I've done a million times is the sexy kitty. Paired with a bow tie and some kitty ears, I decided to do a dramatic cat eye, extended on both ends of the eye to make the look very feline. I used MAC's Mauvement pigment all over the lid and highlighted the corners with Urban Decay's Uzi. I really wanted to emphasize the playfulness of the cat so I used a lot of pinks on my cheeks and lips, including MAC's Briar Rose Beauty Powder and Rock and Republic's Tease on the cheeks and Viva Glam Gaga lipstick and lipglass for my pucker. Keeping the whiskers simple, I used Maybelline's Gel Liner in Black and highlighted the whiskers with Uzi again. Stay tuned for more of my Halloween looks this week. What will you be dressing up as?

Dupe This Look: Glee's Quinn Fabray

Ready to gleek out? As McKinnley High School's resident queen bee and captain of the Cheerios, Quinn Fabray is one of Glee's most entertaining characters! Behind that tough yet flirty exterior, Quinn is just as sweet and soft as her makeup is. To give Quinn a young and playful look, Dianna Agron (the actress who plays Quinn) sticks to soft colors that play up her flirty eyes and pouty lips. Her skin is always luminous and dewy, but to keep the look tailored and clean (she does have a reputation to maintain), Quinn is usually rocking matte lips. To achieve that perfect 16 year old skin, I used Maybelline's Dream Matte Mouse foundation to smooth everything over, then highlighted my upper cheekbones and contoured my skin with MAC's Her Own Devices beauty powder to create that dewy finish. I also used Nars blush in Taj Mahal to give my skin a warm glow. I kept my eyes simple, brushing MAC's Woodwinked and Sable on the lid and lining it it Urban Decay's black pencil liner in Zero. I finished off with a strip of falsies for an extra cutesy look. Finally, to mimic Quinn's matte orange red pout, I slipped on MAC's Toxic Tale lipstick and finished with that classic Quinn scowl/smirk.
