Out Alive - Kris Allen

It's no secret. I am head over heels in love with Urban Decay eyeshadow. It's also no secret that I am a die-hard fan over "Midnight Cowboy." It's one of my all time favorite shades. Day time or night time: it's perfect.

When I love something, I share it with friends. Last Christmas I decided to go on a Urban Decay shopping spree for my friends. I got the Naked palette for my mom, the Vegan palette for my long-distance friend and I saved the best for my best concert buddy, Heather. I purchased the Midnight Emergency Kit for her. Normally she doesn't wear eyeshadow so I was hesitant to give her this gift. But then again, I believe in this shade so much that a nonbeliever would love it too. It's the perfect kit for someone who doesn't wear eyeshadow and wants to just add a little bit to their everyday routine. As expected, she appreciated and loved the gift (of course with some apprehension as to if she would actually be able to apply it correctly). It was something fun, something I loved, something I know is quality, something new for her to try and play with.

The Midnight Emergency kit includes four lovely midnight shadows (midnight cowboy, midnight rodeo, midnight 15, AC/DC), a mini eyeshadow brush and some lip gloss (Midnight Cowboy Lip Junkie). 

About a month later, we met up to go to Kris Allen's Out Alive tour a few hours away. It was an incredible concert and we had so much fun. The next day, I asked her if she had her emergency kit with her. She did! So, I offered to do her makeup and "teach" her how to use it.

I wanted to share the pictures with you all because I think she looked fabulous in the Midnight Emergency kit.

I loved the final result, my mom loved the final result and even her family that night complimented her on her "Midnight" look. I think it's perfect for the day but she could also darken it up a bit for a night time look.

I hope you loved the little "midnight makeover," Heather. Thanks for being the best concert pal around and thanks for being an awesome makeup model. :)

If you can get your hands on a Midnight Emergency kit - do it! You can still find it around online. If not, I would recommend at least buying "Midnight Cowboy" and pairing it with your favorite darker shades. It looks great with any other color!
