East Coast vs West Coast Makeup Collab

May 2, 2013

 

 

Hi loves!! I’m excited today, Carly over at Lipgloss and Crayons {{whom I ADORE}} asked me to do a collab post with her and we would each feature a day and night look, as a Cali girl she would cover the West Coast makeup looks and me && my Jersey Girl self would do the East Coast. I love what Carly came up with and I hope you guys enjoy all of our looks && stick around to the end and enter our super fun Sephora giveaway, we wanted to reward a readers with something fun!! I hope you love our East Coast vs West Coast Makeup collab!

I love a good Jersey girl & there are quite of few of them out there, but two that I’m sure you all know so I wanted to give my interpretation of how to “Get Their Look”.

Tarte BB Illuminating Moisturizer  //  Milani Total Lash Cover //  NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream
Wet N Wild Perfect Pair Eye Wand  //  Tarte emphasEYES Brightener   //  Benefit Velvet Eyeshadow
I think Jersey girls get a bad rap, like we’re all running around like the chicks from the Jersey Shore with crazy makeup caked on our face and a stock of bronzer well I do have a stock of bronzer but I know how to use it but I promise we know how to play it down. I love the natural look that Kirsten Dunst has going here, and it’s easy to achieve with a lovely bb cream, neutral eye shadow with a highlight for the inner corners, a brown liner and dark mascara and a soft matte lip. This look is perfect for a day trip down the shore and a walk a long the boardwalk.
Mac Ruby Woo  //  Maybelline Color Tattoos  //  Maybelline BB Cream
NYC Blush  //  Milani Liquid Eyes  //  Dior Show Mascara 
For the night look, I was inspired by one of my personal favorite Jersey girls, the lovely Anne Hathaway in Devil Wears Prada. Jersey at night is a bit different, and we tend to want to look very “glammed up”! This is a pretty simple look with a simple bb cream, downplayed bronze to brown eyes with cream shadow, a dark liner and a pop of mascara go perfect with a bronze shade for blush and the bold red lipstick will give this look the perfect finishing touch.

Hello all! I’m Carly, and I blog over at Lipgloss and Crayons. I love to play with fashion and makeup and am always sharing my favorites on the blog. I teach, play, and live life in sunny Los Angeles.

California day makeup is all about easy, natural and beachy. The weather is beautiful out here in the summer, and you need JUST enough makeup to enhance a sunkissed glow. A basic beauty balm, bronzer, and a peachy cheek stain mimic days of vacation. Finish it off with a nude eye, light brown liner, mascara and soft pink lip…..you’re ready for the day!

California nightlife is very casual, so making the transition to evening is simple! A deeper eye ? Darkened liner ? A brighter gloss? And you’re good to go!!!

    I have a TON! Its probably a tie between BB cream and Mascara but if I could only use ONE makeup product for the rest of my life, it would have to be mascara. Am I the only person who thinks that mascara just totally transforms my face?? I LOVE the Maybelline Illegal Length mascara!

“The black and white photo challenge started as “The black and white photo challenge started as a way for women to raise their voice. To stand in solidarity with the women we have lost. To show that one day, it could be their picture plastered across news outlets with a black and white filter.” - @beelzeboobz⁣
⁣
In 2019, Turkey had nearly 500 RECORDED femicides. ⁣
⁣
The Global Burden of Armed Violence 2014 database shows that between 2007 and 2012, on average, 60,000 women were killed violently around the world. ⁣
⁣
A total of 87,000 women were intentionally killed in 2017. More than half of them (58 per cent) ̶ 50,000 ̶ were killed by intimate partners or family members, meaning that 137 women across the world are killed by a member of their own family every day. More than a third (30,000) of the women intentionally killed in 2017 were killed by their current or former intimate partner ̶ someone they would normally expect to trust.⁣
⁣
“Since the pandemic, violence against women especially domestic violence has intensified” @unwomen⁣
⁣
While the majority of homicide victims are men, women are the primary victims of intimate partner homicide, including homicide–suicide events.⁣
⁣
Drug dealers get longer sentences than rapists. ⁣
⁣
Breonna Taylor’s murderers still haven’t been arrested. ⁣
⁣
Globally, 1 in 3 women experience physical or sexual violence mostly by an intimate partner⁣
⁣
#WomenSupportingWomen looks a lot like putting in work to actively combat and also recognize violence against women. It looks like voting for political figures who don’t want to take the rights of women away. It looks like donating to causes that actively fight for these women. ⁣
⁣
So let’s #challengeaccepted that. ⁣

Would you ever say the things you say to yourself Would you ever say the things you say to yourself to another woman? ⁣
⁣
I absolutely wouldn’t tell a woman that her thighs were too big. Or that I hated her stretch marks. Or her belly stuck out too far. Or that her arms were fat. ⁣
⁣
So why the frick am I ok saying it to myself? Sometimes we all need a little reminder when we look in the mirrror...⁣
⁣
Speak to yourself with grace. If you find yourself experiencing negative self talk ask yourself if you’d say it to someone else. If the answer is no.. full 🛑 ⁣

Wanna hear some random things about me?! ⁣ ⁣ 1 Wanna hear some random things about me?! ⁣
⁣
1️⃣ My hair has been over 50 different colors. Some of them all at the same time. It’s naturally blonde though⠀⁣
⠀⁣
2️⃣ I went to an all girls catholic high school and was asked not to take Spanish 3 because I talked too much 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
3️⃣ I have two cats, a dog, and a husband that I’ve been with since I was 16 years old⠀⁣
⠀⁣
4️⃣ I’m a double ♊️ which means I’m talkative, fiercely loyal and endlessly curious. Paired with being an enneagram 8 and it probably also means I’m a little bit psycho 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
5️⃣ I listen to murder podcasts to fall asleep.⠀⁣
⠀⁣
6️⃣ Playing with makeup is my happy place. ⠀⁣
⠀⁣
7️⃣ I love the hottest hot sauces that most people won’t even smell. ⠀⁣
⠀⁣
8️⃣ I recently became a plant mom and it escalated quickly⁣
⠀⁣
9️⃣ If I won the lottery I’d buy a tiny house in the middle of nowhere ⁣
⠀⁣
🔟 Creating this community has been one of my favorite things about life. What will you find here?! Easy beauty tips and tutorials, attainable fashion, endless Amazon finds, but also the UNCOMFORTABLE stuff: pap smears, depression, anxiety, the effects my husbands addiction had on our marriage, eating disorders, struggles with fertility, body acceptance, and being comfortable in your own skin. I try to keep it as real as humanly possible. Being so vulnerable all of the time isn’t the easiest thing but if it helps just one person feel less alone, I’m good! ⠀⁣
⁣
🌟 I’m so glad you’re here! I’d love to hear a fun fact about you!! 🌟 ⁣

Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thin Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. ⁣
⁣
We’re about two hit two years since Jim entered rehab and I’m forever proud of the changes he made and the man he has become⁣
⁣
For the person reading this who loves an addict. It’s changed you, I know. It made you a little harder to reach. It made getting out a bed a little rough. It’s isolated you from groups of friends. Your hearts a little more closed off then it once was. Your trust is a little bit broken. You’ve felt more alone then you ever have. You’ve felt judged. You’ve felt betrayed. You’ve felt at fault.⁣
⁣
Whether you’re past it or still in the trenches. I want you to know some things. ⁣
⁣
I need you to know that it’s not your fault. I need you to know that you could not have done anything differently. I need you to know that you can’t cure it. You didn’t cause it. And you can’t control it. ⁣
⁣
Most of all I need you to know that it gets better. I need you to know that it’s ok to feel happiness again. It’s ok to put yourself first. It’s ok to take care of your. ⁣
⁣
And you’re not alone. ⁣
⁣
I promise you that there’s a light on this side of the tunnel just waiting for you to walk through. And that light doesn’t mean it’s over, it’s just there to guide you. Because every day could be a battle. ⁣
⁣
I stayed for the battle. But that’s not the only way. If you need to leave that’s okay too. Either way. You have to get to that light. ⁣
⁣
Don’t be afraid to reach out for help. Go to a meeting yourself. Grab a book (Co-Dependent No More, was helpful for me) listen to a podcast. Get yourself a village. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF⁣
