My Everyday Makeup Routine

I love makeup, it's no lie.  I collect it, I play with it and I even make blog posts and YouTube videos about it...   With all of the different products I own, I could do a different makeup look everyday from now until forever. But the truth is, even I have a routine.  There's just something about finding good products and combinations of products... it gives me a sense of calm.

I'm usually running late in the mornings, and knowing that I can wake up and pop on my face in five minutes is glorious... especially because I know it will look good!  I've gotten lots of questions, so I decided to film a video about how I do my makeup errday{cue Drake & Lil Wayne}... unless I'm trying something new...

St. Patrick's Day Makeup Tutorial

Blow those bagpipes, and dance like a banshee  because I am CELEBRATING over here!  It must be true, the Luck o' the Irish, because normally, I am late for everything!  But check it, I was able to get this St. Patrick's Day Makeup Tutorial filmed, edited, and posted just in time for people to see it, learn it and do it! If I could, I'd give my self a little pot o' gold but maybe I'll settle for a congratulatory kiss from Muscley Arms?!  

Let's be honest, when it comes to makeup, I'm a neutral lover.  Beige, tan, brown, and naked are the staple colors in my makeup collection, with a little bit of pink thrown in the mix.  But every once in awhile, when I'm feeling a bit mischievous  I'll throw some green in to the mix!  Green makeup is seriously underrated!  It looks great with EVERY eye color and can still pass as a neutral {No joke, did you know even camouflage, one of this Springs hottest trends, is considered a neutral?!}  I've done this look for the past two years, and I still get really excited about it... Maybe I should wear it more than just as a holiday look?  If you're not a fan of green clothing, or if you don't own green clothing, check out my tutorial for a look that will help you avoid getting pinched this St. Patrick's Day!  

{PS. Stay tuned at the end of the video for some super sweet footage.  This is what happens when I'm not aware the camera is still on!}

Makeup for Tired Eyes | Tutorial

Daylight savings time... ugh!  As much as I love that extra hour of sunshine, and the excitement for long summer days, I dread loosing that hour of sleep...  How can it be that loosing one little hour of sleep can be so detrimental to my day, mood, health {I seriously got a migraine on Monday!}, etc.?!

While doctors recommend eight hours of beauty sleep each night, this girl requires 9-10!  But, who am I kidding, no one has time for that much shut eye.  On mornings I wake up feeling less than refreshed, I turn to my trusty friend, makeup, to help me fake an "I slept all night" glow!

I know that most women think that the key to tired, red eyes is lots of dark eye shadow and eyeliner, but that couldn't be further from the truth... {Is it further or farther?} Further!  When I get a good night's rest, my skin is luminous and glowing, and my eyes are bright, it's as if I don't even need makeup!  In the video below, I'll show you how to create this look!

Sorry for the inconvenience...

But, because I was away from Blogger for so long, I didn't realize the interface changed so much...

To be honest, I don't like it and I don't want to learn to use it!!!

www.MissPrissMorgan.com will still be my blog website address once the conversion is complete, but right now I'm working on switching over to Wordpress!

For now, my blog can be read at: MissPrissMorgan.blogspot.com.. you know, the "vintage" site name!

It's time for a redesign...

Sorry for the construction...
Here's a little something I'm working on...

 

One Year!

Easy As Pie

When it comes to dessert, I'm a cheesecake girl.  Plain cheesecake.  No Strawberries, no sour cream sauce, just plain cheesecake.  Muscley arms, on the other hand is a berry guy.  His favorite is berry cobbler {but there's only one recipe he'll eat}, and berry pie. 

 

Even though I'm a lousy cook, I'm a pretty darn good baker!  I wanted to do something special for him for Valentine's day, a cookie bouquet, cupcakes, but nothing seemed to fit the bill.  I was at target the other day, and found a mini heart-shaped pie press, and ding ding ding!!!  I had a winner.  I decided to make him Mini Raspberry Pies to munch on tonight, since he won't be able to munch on my face...

 

 

 

These were so easy to make, and literally took 20 minutes, start to finish!  Here's what you'll need...

 

1 bag of frozen, sweetened raspberries

1 pre-made pie crust {the kind with 2 layers}

Mini Heart Pie Press {Target has them for about $4}

A little sugar

A little flour

 

And here's how to do it...

1.  Unroll your pie crust onto a cutting board
2.  Use the pie press to cut out heart shapes

3.  Thaw your raspberries. 
4.  Make the filling.  I used Sweetened rRaspberries.  I dumped the package into a bowl, added 2 spoons of sugar {regular cereal spoons} , and 1 spoon of flour and mixed it all together so that the raspberries would get all juicy.

5.  Then I put 1 heart crust into the press, added about 2 spoons of filling, covered with another crust and pressed them together. I then cut a few slits into the top crust for ventilation.

6.  Once I finished, I put all of the pies on a cookie sheet and baked at 400 for 25 minutes. 

They were so easy, and he loved them!

 

 

 

Valentine's Day Look #2: Sultry

Today's makeup look is not for the faint of heart.  Ladies it's time to put on your big girl panties and be the gorgeous sex kitten that's deep inside!  This look was inspired by the Victoria's Secret catalogue, because if sexy isn't hot ladies walking around in their skivvies, I don't know what is!

 

Even without a Valentine, a girl needs to feel sexy, and it's UH-MAY-ZING what this look did for my confidence.  Who knew?  Makeup totally changed the way I felt!  For all my single ladies, if you're having a night in, try this makeup look, and take a photo of yourself, you'll thank yourself in 20 years when you look back on it and say, "Dammmnn!"'

 

Dammnn!

Valentine's Day Look #1: Sweet

I love any reason to play with makeup... especially holidays, with theme colors!  Oh how I love theme colors!!! {for example}.  This year, I can't celebrate Valentine's Day on the actual holiday, so Muscley Arms and I have decided to have a two-day love fest extravaganza!

 

I planned our date tonight!  We are going to be enjoying a sweet, romantic stay-cation, complete with Couple's Massages and dinner!  Tonight, I want to look sweet, and pretty, so I came up with a makeup look inspired by candy hearts. 

 

I do apologize for the video!  It's been a long time, and I'm out of practice... and I still haven't learned how to use this amazing camera Muscley Arms got me for my birthday...  I'll get better, I promise.
