Theme Makeup with a Purpose

[awickedshape]

As I'm trying to finish my pot of Purring that's a great idea! Thank you! I'm not as sold on FoF as I once was... sad but true! So funny that nearly everyone of us had that lippie! I rummaged through my vault of oldiesand found this - it was once my bu and I couldn't throw it away!

Me, either lol

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

I saw two tutorials that inspired today's look - first one was Lisa Eldridge's tutorial for a bright spring look here:
http://www.lisaeldridge.com/video/26746/radiantly-healthy-fresh-spring-makeup-look/#.VRWz7kZKyQE

I fell in love with the Kiko liner and bought it this week.

The second one this look: http://thebeautydepartment.com/2015/03/spring-makeup-inspiration/
I loved the silvery e/s and used the Kiko liner together with it.


Face: L'Oreal Magic Nude, Bourjois Concealer, Chanel Healthy Beige powder, Dior Sunlight bronzer, Burberry Blush in Coral Pink und BP in So Chic.
Well. I've gotten the foundation last year, and didn't use it more than twice because the coverage is quite light and I was kind of self-conscious of my skin. I tried it again today, and hated it! It's the same texture as the Armani Maestro, and I think that's just not for me. I rather doubt that the high alcohol content is good for the skin, and it's too light for me. That's the reason I dug out the Dior bronzer, because I looked quite dead.

Eyes: I used Mac Silverthorn e/s all over the lid and up into the crease. Does anyone remember that e/s? It's from the Rose Romance collection and the prettiest silvery duochrome you've ever seen. I even own a BU. Lined the upper lashline the Kiko liner and used Silverthorn on the lower. Clinique mascara and did my brows with Espresso e/s and the Maybelline brow thingie.

Lips: Used the worst (per Katred and I definitely believe her!) Guerlain Automatique of the whole range, Reflex, lightly with a lip brush and put some Purring tendertone over it. Quite good after that!

Thanks for sharing those videos Anneri!!! I know the calendar says spring for us but the temperature doesn't reflect it at all. I need warmth to get inspired!!
That's too bad about your foundation...as much as I'd like to try one of the new ones out recently, I'm reluctant to-----guess I should just leave well enough alone.

I don't have MAC Silverthorn but it sounds pretty. I did have Purring though!

I'm glad you were able to make Reflex work. Your eye look sounds really very pretty.

​Very pretty Maggie. I love the way the colors relate and play off of each other!!! I have wing envy!!!!!

Thank you! And don't! I always struggle to do them - it took me 20 minutes this time. I think I'll never learn how to make them even quickly and I'm very envious of people, who wear winged eyeliner every day

 

[Medgal07]

Thank you!


Thank you! It is really pretty, it's one of my favourite pigments!

I totally understand. That's probably why they're so good at it----they do it everyday.

 

[Prettypackages]

Very pretty ladies! Maggie love that wing!

Probably! I should practice more but it's so frustrating sometimes

YAY! Where is the picture! ;-) I'm so glad you liked it. It's a great color.

 

[awickedshape]

Today I'm using the Armani eye tint in Shadow with the black and silver shades from Gucci Ocean Rhapsody quad in the crease and inner corner and browbone and Gucci Libertine lipstick

I'll put on the L'Oréal butterfly mascara later.

 

[Medgal07]

YAY! Where is the picture! ;-) I'm so glad you liked it. It's a great color.

Sorry Pretty---I didn't take one yesterday---I was too busy running errands. I'll take on the next time I wear it. I expect to repeat it this year, in spite of out one-a-day
lipstick challenge. It's just too hard not to!
