My Eyebrow Routine

I've been wearing makeup since I was about 12, and until recently I've never quite realized how important eyebrows are! They're the finishing touch, they just frame your face and make it look "complete" even if you're wearing very minimal makeup.

I Hit Pan!

 I'm not even going to try and blame this on my blog because I would still hoard makeup if I weren't writing Massachusetts Mask, but considering the crap ton amount of eyeshadows I own, this is quite the accomplishment!

Broken Finger, Giveaway Winner, New Camera!

Hi guys!

Sorry the winner of my End of Summer Giveaway has been so delayed, a combination of a massive amount of people entering and winners not responding to emails within 24 hours has made it a bit difficult!

But I've finally gotten someone to respond, so I'm happy to announce the winner is the lovely Christine, and I hope she's enjoying all her new goodies :)

I love that so many people entered and I can't wait to do another giveaway soon, you guys are so great and deserve it!

In other news, I broke my finger! Well, I didn't break it, little monster Ollie broke it when we were rough housing. Its only the tip of it so luckily I don't need to wear a full-finger brace, but its still hard adjusting to typing and all that with a big foam brace.

I've also bought myself a new camera, a Nikon D3100 to be exact. I bought it 2 weeks ago and I'm still too scared to take it out of the box haha! But I'm super excited to upgrade my photos on this blog and I really hope investing in that camera is going to product great pictures.

So bear with me for a little bit while I'm getting used to having a finger brace and a new camera, I promise things will get back on track!

Guest Post: Wendy's Top 5 MAC Neutral Eyeshadows for Fall!

Today's Lovely Guest:

 Hi, I'm Wendy from Fashionable Heart! Emily asked me to do a guest blog and I jumped at the chance. This is my first time doing a guest blog, so I'm pretty excited about it and hope it is worthy. I thought I would share my favorite neutral eyeshadows from MAC that are perfect for fall! 

Top row: Tempting, Romp, and Woodwinked. Bottom row: Satin Taupe and Sable. Satin Taupe is probably my favorite MAC eyeshadow of all time and I feel like it can work on just about anyone. It's so beautiful as an all-over eye color! These are all so easy to use as just lid colors or crease colors. And if you have blue eyes like me, you need to own Woodwinked because it really makes them stand out! Hope you guys enjoyed my guest post! :)
