FOTD: No flash photography!

Hello! Thursdays are my "Fridays" when it comes to summer school, so happy early Friday + weekend! :D Another weekend to look forward to before I start school back again on Monday along with my other class that I have to drive far to. Meh. Not too excited about that...but gotta finish. I'm almost there! ^^

Anyways, youtube has become quite an interesting "time waster" of mine (ok, not a total time waster...) as I enjoy watching various tutorials of different make-up looks and I've always wondered how girls take the time out to do all of that and make it flow! It amazes me...I think that's why I'm so intrigued to watch them. SO! I've been thinking of trying out a video tutorial and came up with a look today:

First time posting such a up close picture w/o flash. Excuse my enlarged pores. :3
Yes, this is as real as it's gonna get. haha.

I took out my 3 Rock & Republic eyeshadows that I purchased from Hautelook a few months ago and decided to do a look with all three. I really like the result as I tried different things and added more liners to the look. My mom said she liked it, and I liked it as well. ^^ A very subtle smokey eye that can be worn during the day and can be darkened for a night time look. I paired it with my L'oreal colour riche lipstick in "Peach Fuzz" and since I think this color is a bit to orangey, I topped it with a pink/peach lipgloss by E.LF.

Thumbs up for a possible video tutorial? :D

And for the boys in the back! Extra points if you know who they are. :P

Let me know what you guys think. ^^ Might try it out tomorrow. I'll have to figure out how I'm gonna do it...but I'm excited. heh. Oh yes, and I just received my Nordstrom package (which I haven't opened yet~). Upcoming post on that soon as well!

(Oh yeah, and there's a new palette that I'm lemming for and it's not the UD 15th anni one...WANT!!!!)
