Rimmel Matte Lip Velvet, Orange-ology (these are a let down compared to other liquid lippies)
Happy Friday Sage!! I love your color scheme---I'm obsessed w/orange & brown. What did you dislike about
the Rimmel lippie and what's your favorite liquid lippie brand?

I dislike the Rimmel lip velvets because the wear time is so short, as in under 2 hours, it never sets up completely and it is not completely matte. I am not sure of my favorite because I prefer the wear on some and color selection of others, but I would say Stila, Kat VonD and maybe the LaSplash and Ruby Kisses I could grab and wear in a pinch with no worries.

I think I wore makeup only three times during the last two weeks! EEK!

One was a slap on affair as well - like, 'oh, I've about 20 minutes to do my whole makeup! Crap'.
So, I did used my Maybelline BB cream (which is surprisingly good for me), a bit concealer and Chanel Les Beiges as a setting powder with my trusty ED At Dusk blush. Eyes was Mac Factor Bronze cream e/s with a bit of black liner and mascara, plus brows and Sonoran Rain lipgloss. It was one of the first warm days over here, so it was like a forerunner of my summer look!

The other one was kind of a typical look for me as well - this time with Superwatt by Mac. I used sticky notes (post its) for the first time to give my liner and shadow that defined and crisp edge - in the end, it looked quite extreme (for me), but I friend I was having coffee with liked it a lot and said that she liked the combo of elaborate form and subdued neutrals. She may be on to something!

I used:
Face: Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation, Chanel Les Beiges Powder, Meteorites Perles, Lightscapade as a highlighter and a mix of Legendary and The Perfect Cheek blushes.

Eyes: Superwatt over the whole lid and smoked that out a bit with Kid. Espresso e/s in the outer v and Orb as highlight. Then I used a simple black liner on the upper lashline and a brown liner on the lower lashline. Clinique mascara.

Lips: I don't remember... *hides in shame*
sigh.gif



Today I used a combo of colours I like very much, plus I haven't used both shades in quite some time - Armani ETK Rose Popilia and L'Oreal Infallibles in Sultry Smoke.

Face: Bourjois CC Cream, Mac Mineralize Loose foundation as powder over it, Lightscapade as a highlighter und Bite of an Apple blush (ages since I used this!).

Eyes: I applied Rose Popillia all over the lid, and smoked it out with Sultry Smoke. Used a bit of Typographic in the outer v. Blanc Type as highlight on the browbone and inner corners. Then I used a simple black liner on the upper lashline and Silverthorn e/s on the lower lashline. Clinique mascara.

Lips: Full Speed Sheen Supreme. I like it much better when I apply it with a brush, but I think this will go to my B2M pile when the new Huggables come out, because I vastly prefer them!



Even if I didn't wore makeup that much during the last weeks I've to say that I wore some blushes that I haven't reached for in ages, so that's good! ;)

i like the sound of your structured yet subdued neutral eye! i might try out something like that later this week...

i wore no makeup yesterday, but today i wore two shades from the bao bao palette...the blue and the greeny pewter. i should probably check whether they are still there - i tend to have very very oily eyelids, so everything is kinda temporal if you know what i mean.

i was looking in the disko thread and ended up googling that jeremy scott eye look with phlox garden. i may try that out sometime soon, and use one of the sparkly shadows from bao bao in place of the sparkle/dazzle shadow.

Hey Anneri!!! Good to see you! I've had a couple of makeup - free days too! No big deal. I love the one day that you stepped outside of your makeup box
and did something that was extreme, of you. It sounds like it was a hit!!! I would love to do some out of the box things just for fun with makeup but I'm afraid my family
might have me committed. I'm guessing blue or green lipstick would probably do it!!!

​ Quite honestly, if I don't document (actually copy & paste from one doc to another) whatever product we're using in the challenge I DO NOT remember it. Too many
other things to remember...like my name and address in case I get lost!!

lmao.gif


I'm glad you're using some oldies but goodies. You've made me want to pull out Lightscapade, and so I shall one day this week!!!

When we're not being challenged with eye looks, my go to is a neutral eye look. Thats what I've done for the past couple of days. Oh and a smokey eye look is a
quickie for me. I'd like to add some brights now that spring has decided to actually show up.

Monday I wore Chanel Rouge Allure Luminous Intense Lipstick, Conquise ( Med Orange) 144 and MAC Bad Girl Gone Good (Warm Copper) RiRi Hearts MAC Collection. My neural eye was constructed Armani Eye Tint in Senso, # 10 on the lids, MAC Tempting (Sinfully rich coco) from crease to transition & blend, and then MAC Brun (Muted blackish brown) in the crease and lower lash line. I finished up with MAC Era (Soft Golden Beige, Satin) to highlight my brow. I really loved the look.

Hi ladies. I've been M.I.A. for a bit but have been wearing my goodies. I did fall off the blush challenge though as I've been travelling and paying attention to what blush I used quickly fell apart lol. Looking forward to more breakdowns of your looks.

Sounds like you did good Shars!!! Welcome back.

For Tuesday I wore Dior Blush Cannage Edition, My Lady Pink Harmony 002 (Pink Coral) and MAC Divine Choice (Midtonal Cool
Pink Cream) Mineralize. I've been lazy and non-creative with my eye looks for no good reason whatsoever.

Well I fell off again. LOL I don't even know why. I had an interview last week and did a really neutral look wearing a huggable and Corol blush.. and that's ALL I remember. I wore a huggable on Monday... that's all I got. LOL (goes to catch up, and start over) I'll never get through my 4 months of lipstick at this rate AND with the up and coming collex's. I'll have 6 months worth. LOL

Seems like we've all been in a bit of a rut recently.

After spending a week abroad, I'm happy to have all my makeup again. Even though I tend to wear the same look all the time, I felt genuinely upset because I had only a very limited amount of products with me

Face:
D&G Perfect luminous liquid foundation 78
NARS creamy concealer Chantilly
MAC Light boost
Chanel Poudre universelle libre 20
D&G Tan
Guerlain Sheer bronzing powder 04 Sun blondes
Guerlain Sun Celebration - the orange+bronzer parts as a blush
Benefit Sun beam

Eyes:
UDPP
Zoeva rose golden palette - Luster and Harmony in the crease; Copper is King on the lower lash line
Guerlain Ecrin 4 Couleurs 13 Capri - coral on the lid; shimmery white in the inner corner
MAC Vanilla pigment in the inner corner
D&G Desert - warm brown to define the crease
Kiko long lasting stick eyeshadow 45(nude) on the waterline
Chanel Le volume

Lips:
