The temperatures were dropping this weekend so @breakfastatetiffany @simplybysimone and I headed up to Foxwoods for a Winter Girls Getaway to escape the cold ❄️

When we visited last Summer we kept saying we COULDN’T WAIT to come back in the Winter because everything you need for the perfect girls weekend - restaurants, bars, fun activities, THE SPA - are all under one roof and you don’t need to step foot outside! So we packed up and headed to Connecticut for the first cold weekend of 2023 and it didn’t disappoint!

My perfect favorites from the weekend were…
🧖🏼‍♀️Massages at @gspaatfoxwoods
🏮Dinner at @redlanternct
⛸️Ice Skating at the Winter Terrace

…but everything we did was so much fun and as always I can’t wait to go back! PS if you’re looking to book a trip NOW is the time! Book your hotel stay by March 10th to receive 20% off deluxe hotel room stays now through April 30 OR 30% off between May 1 and July 31!!

mark. Makeup Monday: HOT Lava

Livingaftermidnite - mark. Monday Hot Lava
SMOKEY!!!! I realized I never did a real smokey eye look on my blog which is totally weird because I’m ALWAYS wearing a dark smokey eye. Honestly I think this is probably one of the easier looks to do on yourself. Here I used mostly black shadow – a lighter black & a opaque black, lots of black eyeliner – I used gel & pencil, blackest black mascara & some AMAZINGGGG silver glitter liquid liner just for FUN!

mark. Monday is ALL about mark. & all the products I used here are mark.!!

  1. Moisturizer face with For Goodness Face Moisturizer & prep under eye area with Get Defensive Eye Cream. My face has been really dry lately so I needed an ultra moisturizing lotion. For Goodness face leaves my skin very hydrated. I applied Primer for Perfection Face Primer to skin after allowing moisturizer to set in.
  2. Apply Min-A-Real Foundation with a foundation brush to entire face & blend into neck.
  3. When doing a smokey eye I do most of my eye makeup before finishing my skin in case of any shadow fall out it will be easier to clean up!
  4. Start eye by priming eyelid with Please Hold Eye Primer. Apply iMark Eyeshadow in Corset to entire lid. Apply iMark Metallic in Lava heavily to crease. Using an eyeliner brush apply corset along lower lash line.
  5. Line upper lashes with Keep It Going Longwear Shadow in Entourage (black shade). Line waterline with No Place to Run Eyeliner in Jet Set.
  6. Apply iMark Eyeshadow in Whisper to inner corners of eyes for brightness & just above Lava on crease. BLEND BLEND BLEND with a blending brush!
  7. Curl eyelashes & apply 2 heavy coats of Lash All You Want Mascara in Black!! Groom brows with Brow Factor Hook Up Brow Gel. Apply Ardell Accent Lashes to outer corners of eyes. 
  8. When all my eye makeup is complete a look and see if I need any extra black in the creases & outer corners of my eyes. I like to wait until after mascara & faux lashes are on because its MUCH easier to add more shadow then have to take off!!!!
  9. Now that eye makeup is done, take your powder brush and wipe away any shadow fall out around eyes. Apply Conceal for Real Concealer under eyes and on any blemishes.
  10. Using Powder Brush apply Matte-Nificent Oil Absorbing Powder to entire face and neck. Using Bronzer Brush apply Bronze Pro in Pro Glow to hollows of cheeks and around hairline. Apply Good Glowing Blush in After Glo to apples of cheeks
  11. Take Touch & Glow Shimmer Cubes and highlight any areas that need it! I applied it on my cheek bones, under the arch of my eyebrows & in inner corners of eyes. THIS MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE!!
  12. Apply LipClick Sheer Lipstick in Cupid to lips!
  13. Finish by applying Earn Your Metal Liquid Shimmer Eye Liner in Silverado along makeup edge of inner corners of eyes and where ever else!! This product will be available starting OCTOBER 7th in my eBoutique & comes in Silver & Gold!! Definitely a MUST HAVE for a little Holiday fun!

I did the lovely Edie’s Sweet 16 makeup this past weekend!! She wanted a smokey silver eye & light pink lips to match her HOTT pink gown & pink, black & silver party theme!!! She looked beautiful! Kinda wish I was still 16, but definitely don’t want to go back to the days of high school and not having a car!

Check back to the next mark. Monday where I show you how to do Edie’s Silver Smokey Eye look on yourself!!!

After 3 long years I finally made it back to the West Coast & of course couldn’t pass up the opportunity to stay in @theramblermotel in Chula Vista, CA. 

And I’m a sucker for colorful, kitschy hotel with a really good coffee shop in the lobby (that happens to be an arcade) so staying here was a no brainer for me 🌈

More San Diego content coming soon! For now check out my highlight for all the details of my trip!
