I see myself here in your eyes


"I need your love to guide me back home..."

Can I just say that Never Be hits me in the feels every time? And that's become one of my life mottos: "Don't let the colours fade to grey." I just want to say I am extremely proud of these boys. That is all.

What's in my makeup bag...


Hey guys! So about a month ago, a lot of my makeup expired and was just old or worn out and I decided to try a bunch of products that had been recommended to me via instagram, tumblr, and twitter. So I have bunch of mismatched products right now when usually I buy from just one brand, which is Rimmel or Benefit. 

Some of the products are no longer sold in stores, so I went on eBay and Amazon to get them, which you might have to do as well. And please excuse the ugly pics 😜

So my makeup bag is from Natural Life. I got this from my mom's friend in a bag of stuff and this was one of the only things I ket. It's canvas and durable and it holds a lot more than you might think.  


For tools, I use a Target brand eyelash curler and a brush set from Ecotools. Right now, I'm using the mineral powder and eye shading brushes. 


For foundation, I've been using Covergirl Natureluxe in flax but I got a sample size of Dr. Brandt Pores No More and that stuff is magic. I may or may not be ordering the full size. 


After curling my lashes, I put on two coats of Maybelline Pumped up Colossal mascara. 


Then I line my eyes with the black eye shadow from Maybelline Eyestudio Palette Sapphire Siren. 


As for extras, sometimes I'll line my upper lashes with Urban Decay glitter liner in Distortion or swipe on Rimmel lipstick in Red alert. They both make me feel so fancy and I always seem to get compliments when I wear them. 


If I need to dress up, I'll add Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in Rose Petal or one of the eyeshadows from the smokey brun palette by Rimmel. Obviously, I have had them both a long time. 
Alright! So if you guys use any of these products or have any recommendations for me, hit  me up on instagram or tumblr! And if you guys think I should do a makeup tutorial on what I do everyday, comment down below! Love you, sugar plums!

The first post...

Hi, I’m Taylor-Marie.  


I’ve been alive for 18 years now, and I am finally happy with who I am. I’m terribly excited about this... and just really excited by anything else that's new and exciting. My lucky number always has been and always will be 11 (my birthday is June 5, 06/05, 6+5=11). It pops up in front of me in the most obvious and undeniable ways, like when something good is about to happen. I’m a Gemini. I think that means I’m bubbly and friendly and sometimes irrational. My moods change rapidly. It also means I feel much, much older than I actually am. My favorite colors are crimson and evergreen. They're the colours of autumn, which is my season. 

Having coffee alone at a coffee shop makes me feel sophisticated and big crowds make me nervous. I like twirling in dresses and spending a day at the library. I like the smell of books and roses. The ocean is my home.

I am a Wiccan, I believe in the power and energy of the universe. I believe this power is inside me. I give all thanks and pain and love and trust to a god and goddess who have shown me these things. And I am glad to have found beautiful people to share what I believe in. 

Halloween is a state of mind. Red lipstick is battle armour. I walk around in a pair of Toms that have seen superglue more than they've seen the sidewalk. I blog from a beach-themed room with Christmas lights to remind there are stars and I should reach for them.

I'm Taylor-Marie. Welcome to my blog. I love you already.
