Theme Makeup with a Purpose

[NaomiH]

Luckily my cousin leaves for Paris on the 18th, let's see if I can bribe her to bring me back that lipstick LOL!

Oh nice!

 

[NaomiH]

Elegant Accent is pretty on you Naomi. I love your photos because your eyes are very expressive---like right now they're saying, "when you take your eyes off me I'm
eating your cookie." In fact I could pen a little book---'A Story as Told by Naomi's Eyes', Stay tuned.......

I don't think I've purchased any MAC products since last year---until now, so I had no idea about Elegant Accent. I must say, I like it a lot!!!

You're too kind, Meddy! Thank you very much!

I found it at my CCO a few months ago and decided I "needed" it! lol

 

[Dominique33]

It is a lovely colour, Naomi and it goes well with... blue !

 

[Anneri]

Oh that sounds awful, I hope it cools off for you soon! 

Thank you! It actually did. It dropped to 70-80. i can live with that!

Glad you're back! Stay safe in the heat.

Thank you meka!

    [COLOR=FF0066]Ahoy Anneri!  I thought of you today because my Burberry Pale Barley arrived today.  I'm so glad you twisted my arm & threatened to toss me off a building recommended it   [/COLOR]

Hahaha Med! Whaaaaaat, meeeeee?! I didn't do something even remotely like that! Never!!! (Do you like it?)

Gosh woman, you're so beautiful it's unreal!

MAC Elegant Accent lippy with Peaches & Cream blush and Refresh MSF.

So very pretty! Love it.

Givenchy Fruit Défendu, Today I wore Givenchy Fuchsia Irrésistible and tonight Givenchy Fruit Défendu ! It's not a coral one but clearly an orangey one, very bright indeed.

Haha Dominique, looks like you managed to enable nearly everybody in this thread! Gorgeous colour on you. Welcome Singer to the thread! I did a very simple face again, but for a change I wore At Dusk EDB and Chanel Moon River with a dark blue Liner on my eyes. On my lips I wore Guerlain Rouge Automatique Reflex. It was nice, but after a while it really started to bother me that the shirt I was wearing was about half a shade darker than the lippie and the whole look was slightly off. I still have four coral lippies I want to wear - TF True Coral, Mac Hibiscus, Mac Scarlet Inis and Viva Glam Nicki (that's a hard shade to wear for me. But I'll try!). On another note I'm really annoyed with myself - today I dropped my Kindle and it broke. I immediately had to get a new one because I cannot live without my books, but that took a chunk out of my MU and clothes fund which is so annoying! I wanted to buy some np and don't know if I can afford it right now. Bother.

Yes Anneri

but blame Nicolas Degennes, Givenchy Artistic Director in fact !

 

[NaomiH]

Thank you very much @Anneri! That sounds like a pretty look you had yourself and that stinks about your Kindle.

So bad you dropped your kindle, I keep breaking things for some reason, well what to say, no you cannot live without your books !

I love it Anneri. I wore Friday, the day after it arrived. I wore a little color w/it and just a dab of carbon in the outer vee---game on---love it. Thanks for forcing
encouraging me to get it.

Oh know to breaking your Kindle---replacing it was a must for you---you can't be carrying stacks of books on your travels. Mine is dying---it does't hold a charge for
very long---so annoying. I downloaded the Kindle app to my iPad so I can continue reading my Kindle books. It syncs really well so I alternate devices because of
the battery issue. So, what are you currently reading?

Samba is gorgeous Pix!

Love the look you put together here!

 

[Medgal07]

Well then, I'm just going to have to tell Fancy Pants to be expecting a package from Sephora. lol

 

[Dominique33]

  :lmao:

Makeup of the day, just a lippie Bourjois Color Boost in " Peach on the Beach "

 

[Prettypackages]

OK, LOL that we were all looking for that Givenchy lipstick. AND I'm pouting cuz I don't have a hook up.

 

[Anneri]

Dominique, is the Givenchy Fruit Defendu a Rouge Interdit lipstick? We have English names for them over here, so could yours be No 14 in Fruity Orange?

I wondered about that but I couldn't tell from the manufacturer's swatch and that isn't a literal translation. Hopefully it is so I can get it this week!

In fact, Fruit Défendu belongs to the " Le Rouge " range, the packaging is made of steel and leather ( 34,50 € here ).

No Calla, you're right, it isn't a literal translation at all. BUT the fact is that Fruity Orange is a Rouge Interdit. I would gladly help but sending it from France would cost a lot of money, more than the lipstick itself ( shipping costs, tracking and insurance ).

 

[Dominique33]

We have the same name

here Fruity Orange ( Rouge Interdit ), I checked it out a few minutes ago.

Thanks Dominique! Fruity Orange looks like a pretty color but the Fruit Défendu really made an impact on me and you looked so fabulous wearing it. So I'm still trying to get it! lol

Yes I know, if you cannot get it try Mandarine Boléro it looks gorgeous too . Or maybe you could order it on a British online store, I think the shipping costs would be less pricey.
