Theme Makeup with a Purpose

[Vineetha]

Thanks very much [@]Medgal07[/@] :frenz: I always overdo it in the crease and V when I use those little drugstore applicators lol What did you use today [@]Medgal07[/@]? I think this is my last palette for the challenge Edit: I need to do an inventory list Medgal! lol I forgot I have two more, an Avon quad

and a Sacha trio that I usually use only two shades from to go with my Sari

@awickedshape I loved that saree :lol:

  [COLOR=0000FF] Both the quad and the trio are really very pretty AWS.  I'm very awkward with the [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]little brushes that come with the palettes.  I now save them for my daughter because she like using them [/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]   for art projects.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]   Today I wore my Dior Cuir Cannage e/s quad, [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]YSL Rouge Pur Couture Matte Rouge Rock (Red) 203 lipstick and Illamasqua NP in Throb (Blood Red).  Gold form the quad is my lid color---I love[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]   gold e/s with red lips.  It's like a neutral eye look.  I love this YSL matte lippie---nice and creamy, and very comfortable to wear.  I went w/o blush today, but I did contour and bronze.[/COLOR]   [COLOR=0000FF]   I couldn't live w/o my makeup inventory document!  I also have separate docs for my fashion jewelry and our challenges.[/COLOR]   [COLOR=0000FF]I hope you had a marvelous vacation Mrs B.[/COLOR]

Nice! Cuir Cannage was awfully tempting but I resisted lol That inventory system is sounding pretty good

I wore it today for you. It's not what I thought it was. It turns into a pretty rose copper color. You'd love it. On me it doesn't really do anythng for me.


HOw do you like the ABH Liquid Lipstick. Electric Coral is on my list but the reviews have been bad recently.

gorgeous

You're just too good to me Pretty!!! It sounds lovely. I'm concerned about Rose Copper being too light for me. BTW, my NARS Liguria lipstick arrived today---it's
gorgeous. Thank you for recommending it Pretty!!!

Thanks [@]Vineetha[/@] and [@]Shars[/@]! I love them lol

I keep finding stuff lol Using an old L'Oréal HIP duo in Gilded with L'Oréal Lash Out Butterfly and NARS Barbara Audacious lipstick. I'll probably change the lipstick, though.

 

[Medgal07]

Oh that's so pretty AWS. That hidden stash is yielding some lovely treasures!!!

Thanks, dear! That eyeshadow held up so well! Better than some of the YSL for wear. How are you today? I'm rounding up the little odds and ends

And I know I have a BNIB Affinite cream blush... I just gave my friend my Dior Silver Glow because I love that GA Shadow eye tint so much and I'm thinking of giving her that, too. But I just gave her a gift certificate so I can put that off for a bit. I should be able to get my Gucci order tomorrow! Hoping for the best

LOVE the dress! Funny that you mention the L'Oreal lipstick, years ago when I still was a student (10 years ago?!

) L'Oreal had another lippie they had devolloped with Aishwarya, and it was my HG lippie that I bought again and again and again. It was the only thing I wore. Funny how that changed...


Lips: Ok, that took some effort. I had the crazy idea to wear VG Nikki 1, but that's not a good shade for me most of the time. So I lined and filled my lips with Boldly Bare liner, applied Nikki over it with a brush and used than Flurry of Fun l/g (orange with blue glitter) over it. And it looked actually really pretty and toned down.

a mac artist showed me vgn1 with purring tender tone - which basically sold me on both products...flurry of fun on top sounds even better...i'm sad i missed that one!

since i read about your experience, i keep thinking i should go get a makeover too!

do it! So I was about to ask you if you tried the stuff I sent. And it's sitting on my dresser. D'OH. I'll send it Saturday, for sure.

since i read about your experience, i keep thinking i should go get a makeover too! ok, i think i will probably try it next time i'm at a counter/store. i use to be very afraid of corals, and i'm still a little hesitant! nice! i like the leopard print too! i also use to have an aishwarya beige lipstick, which i liked a lot, but i think i either lost it or purged it during a cull of lipsticks that had gone off. i think l'oreal did a nude lipstick in their new collection with her as well, but it wasn't available here. a mac artist showed me vgn1 with purring tender tone - which basically sold me on both products...flurry of fun on top sounds even better...i'm sad i missed that one!

Thanks [@]aradhana[/@]! I like corals but some are more flattering than others on me. I bet you'd look great so you should test some ;-) I ended up throwing out the Eva and Milla shades and my old AB but kept the BU of AB because it's an easy shade and I just love that L'Oréal did a lipstick with Aishwarya! I thought I saw one just labelled "Beige" and was bummed that they dropped the name off. I must check it out.

I think I did. Let me go check. LOL  (it's been that kind of week, I'm so tired of ppl yelling at me) LOL.  Yay, I'm so glad you like Liguria.  It's such an interesting shade.    Now, I'm not sure if it will be too light for you at all.  I still think you'd be able to see it.  I'm going to swatch it against my coworker tomorrow so we see what it looks like on her. That eyeshadow is perfect for you. do it!  So I was about to ask you if you tried the stuff I sent.  And it's sitting on my dresser.  D'OH.  I'll send it Saturday, for sure. 

No hurry, [@]Prettypackages[/@] lol Thank you

Today I'm using the Avon Caribbean Sunset quad, and will probably put on the L'Oréal mascara and TF Coco Ravish lipstick later on

Edit I'm loving Coco Ravish more and more each use

I have not yet worn it, but it's definitely not too light. I have some MAC nudes that are even lighter than Liguria. I'll probably wear it with my next smoky eye look.
I didn't realize how often I wear smoky eye looks until our palette challenge...unless it was just a coincidence. For the last two days I've worn golds & browns from
various palettes that I've paired with red lips because my reds were not getting enough love. Yesterday I wore my MAC Creative Copper palette, which I purchased
just for Carbonized and the true gold e/s, Creative Copper in the palette.

Very nice combo AWS!!!!! Hang onto these new finds-----they're really working well for you. Love you in Coco Ravish too!!!!

Thank you

 
 
So funny that nearly everyone of us had that lippie! I rummaged through my vault of oldies and found this - it was once my bu and I couldn't throw it away!

And why didn't it add the pic?!?! Here it is:
