Cartoon lips - teaser for full face comic book look for Halloween


EASY HALLOWEEN COMIC BOOK LIPS

I had so much creating this fun and easy look. I will be sharing the tutorial soon for what this look will be helping to create. 


Step 1. I find it easiest to start off with clean and dry lips. I use my rodan + fields lip micro-dermabrasion. It scrubs off all the dead skin cells and leaves my lips feeling so smooth. 


Step 2. I apply one layer of stiff uppper lip stain. This is the color "skittish" from Younique. I really love how bright and pretty this color is. 


Step 3. I line the outside of my lips with the precision point eyeliner is the shade "perfect". 


Step 4. I also lined the inside of my lips as well. 


Step 5. I drug out the inner liner a little in random spots. 


Step 6. I added some "highlights" with my precision eyeliner in "pristine". 


Step 7. Layered it with "loyal" lip gloss and voila! Super easy and super cute. 

So all of the products I used can be found at www.lindseyriley.com. I had fun creating this look and please feel free to share yours with me if you recreate it!

Back to School: One year of changes

Look how adorable my sweet babies were for their first day of Kindergarten. They were so excited for school to start. They've been each other's best friend since birth and all the together-ness (is that even a word?) was driving them a little crazy. We opted to have them in separate classes and it helped them become their own person so much! KT had aspirations to be a teacher and KP's goals were to be a chef or a "cooker" as she called it. 

We went through so many changes in one year, I switched career paths, their dad was promoted in his job as well. We bought our first house,  KT had her 2nd cranio related surgery, we traded in a car, the girls went tubing for the first time,  we gained two little fur babies, started my own business and so so much more that I couldn't even begin to put into words. 
Our new home, isn't it so cute!?

Enjoying a little time at Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri.

ANNNNNNNNNNND here is my "babies" on their first day of 1st Grade. They will be 40 and I'm sure I will still call them my "babies". They grow up so fast!
