We beauty bloggers are masters of the at home photo shoot. On the occasions our husbands, boyfriends, or tri-pods are not accessible, we snap our own pictures. Sure, we sometimes need to crop out what appears to be a Stretch Armstrong arm every once in awhile, but that comes with the self portrait territory. Ha!
Yesterday, I spent hours painting my face and creating a 'do that would have made my perfectly coiffed pal, Tiffany (
Big Hair Bigger Lashes), do the slow clap and rise. I was especially proud of my locks; they were curled, teased, and a force to be reckoned with. Yet, somehow my HOTD found a way to ruin my FOTD.
I took NINETY-TWO pictures of my mug and mane, confident that at least a few would be worthy of posting. Upon uploading the photos, I noticed my hair appeared horrifically frizzy. Nick Nolte's mugshot looked sexier than what I had going on. So, instead of a FOTD, you get EOTD (plus one cheek)! XD
[Click to enlarge. I had to significantly lighten this picture up because it was too dark. I also airbrushed everything except my eyes and lashes as my skin looked strange after I messed with the photograph's exposure. Blech...]

On my cheeks, I am rocking NARS Crazed. The stunning Miss Natty recently reviewed this blush. Check out her post
here. I agree 100% with what she had to say!
On to my latest nail polish obsession: OPI's "Do You Lilac It". I have been wearing this for quite some time now, and love it! Two coats are all you need to achieve this pretty shade. Wearing it definitely puts me in a Spring type of mood!
What are y'all sporting on your nails?
