Silver and Black Makeup — For my Fellow Raider Divas

Yes, this stiletto wearing, red lipstick loving girlie-girl is a die hard football fan. OAKLAND RAIDERS to be exact. Today is the Battle of the Bay and we are playing the San Francisco 49’s Forty Whiners.  (he he)  So today, there will be nary a red lipstick near these lips, it’s all about the silver and black.  Oh, in case you are a girl who doesn’t follow football the whiners colors are red and gold.   So here’s the lineup of my favorite silver and black makeup.  Of course I have to go to Urban Decay for my selection.  Not only do the names befit a Raider fan, but they are the ultimate in powerful pigment and will last through four quarters of mean play without melting down.

My top 5 silver and black makeup picks! 

I’m not talking Nnamdi, Justin, JaMarcus, Darren or Michael.  I’m talking makeup…

1.  Eyeshadow

For high drama smokey eye looks, I have been using Urban Decay Oil Slick for years.  I love this black eyeshadow sprinkled with silver glitter.  Mix it up with Uzi — silver metallic with big iridescent sparkles, Vapor — very light silver, or Gunmetal — gunmetal gray with silver glitter.

2.  Liquid Liner

What self-respecting Raider Diva would neglect her black eyeliner?  None I suspect.  So I have to go with my tried and true Oil Slick again folks. Can’t get enough of this shimmer black liner.  For deepest black liner check out Perversion and if you are feeling the silver liner,  Revolver is the way to go.  And I love the packaging, the bottle fits right in your hand for easy holding while you are lining.  I do have to try the new Ink liners too though — on my wish list…

3.  Eye Pencil

Urban Decay 24/7  pencils are awesome.  They are waterproof and loaded with moisturizing ingredients like Jojoba Oil, Vitamin E and Cottonseed Oil.  They are perfect for the inside job too — you can line your inner rim and not worry about the pencil bleeding and looking like you slept in your makeup.  I love Zero,  it’s the perfect black that lasts and lasts.

4.  Mascara

Skyscraper Multi-Benefit mascara is the one to check out.  Finally a mascara that does it all — lengthens, strengthens, separates, curls, brightens and thickens your lashes without even a hint of clumping or flaking. Luxe ingredients like Panthenol and vegetal ceramids condition and strengthen. Silk protein protects, and Vitamins C and E serve as powerful antioxidants. Filming agents even encourage a gentle curling. Lashes are long, strong, and feather-soft.

5.  Nails
 

 Since Urban Decay doesn’t have any polishes available until Holiday of this year, I have to stepout of my UD realm into this matte manicure that was posted by Bit By the Beauty Bug.   I am not a fan of matte polish, but when I saw this manicure all I could think was HOT!  Lincoln Park After Dark(OPI) matte manicure with a touch of shine added to the tips for a bit more drama.  I love this mani.  I think on my toes it would look hot too with a few rhinestones!

So there you have it fellow Raider Divas, my pick for game day today, and every time our silver and black hits the field. 

GO RAIDERS! 

 Now hear this, I’m offering an Urban Decay goodie bag to the Raider Diva who sends me at least 5 readers to my blog (follow on networked blogs at Facebook) and posts their hottest game day look.  I will post the looks here on Blinging Beauty and on my Facebook page.  Hit me here.
