Theme Makeup with a Purpose

That's cool. That's what I meant, any color can be worn anywhere... Did you have Coral Crepe paint pot by MAC? I did, it was disastrous on me. Now that it is pulling from the edges, I refuse to get rid of it.


A Wicked Shape, we can incorporate that with our color...
SO in addition to a color a week, once a week pick a look you like from a magazine.. Are we still doing a different lippie a day? We could still incorporate a different lippie, blush, shadow, highlight a day within our specific color range, if you have enough to do it.

I seem to do well with challenges that tell me what I have to wear. :)

Hey ladies! I'm liking the sound of peach/coral and bronze week. And we can use any products (lip, eye, cheek etc.) but incorporate those colours for that week.

And y'all July ladies, wait your turn! It's us June ladies' time to shine

I'm catching up so I'll view that video later-----I love having a video that shows me step by step & color by color!!! I didn't do as well last month as I did in prior months
with t he lipstick challenge. I was feeling resentful about wearing some of my favorites only once and I have in excess of 10 new lippies that I've not yet worn because
I don't want to wear them just once. This is a huge conundrum in my makeup world.

I had to look this one up Sage-----it's really nice. I'm so out of touch with MAC----I feel loss!

It was yesterday!! I took Monday and yesterday off from work and had a great weekend!! How was the wedding? Which dress did you wear?

Well, I've embraced the Bronze theme and I'm loving it. Although I did a grey eye-look today, I used bronze hued blush (Tom Ford Savage), blush (Estée Lauder) Bronze Goddess Illuminating Powder Gelee and lipstick (Tom Ford Skinny Dip) to keep the grey in the back, almost totally neutral and the bronze taking center stage.

Are we doing this until Monday or going for a second week????

I was bronze and shiny this week too! I continued my highlight thang too. I only wore makeup a couple days but I did it big each of those two days. I did sheer metallic eyes, bronzer for the first time in ever, and glossy lips. What are we doing next week?

Sheer metallic eyes sounds AMAZING!!! This was fun. I was waiting to hear what everyone wanted to do----anther bronze week or
something else. I think this goes until Monday. If no one else chimes in I guess the decision is ours to make Sage.

Hey ladies! I can't believe that I have 150 unread posts in this thread. I told Sage that I was coming back to the thread on June 1 but clearly didn't do that. I've gotten caught up in a zombie book series on Kindle and I've reading non-stop.

I'm confused about the color challenge for June. Is it a different color family per week and it doesn't matter whether the color is worn on eyes, lips, cheeks?

The original thought was Bronze in any product you chose---eyes, lips, cheeks, nails---even clothing counts.
The rationale for that is the potential use of more products. The unknown at this point is do we continue this for a
second week or move on to another color/theme.

Amneri suggested peah/coral for the second week. I love peach and coral. I can debut Tropic Tonic and maybe something else. How do you feel about that Medgal?

Let's start Monday.
You got it!!!!! I'm in! So from Monday June 8 to Sunday June 14 we're wearing PEACH/CORAL makeup. To be clear you can select anything from this color family from your makeup stash---be it eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, highlighter, lipstick---whatever. These colors apply to NP and clothing too!!!

Looking forward to it! I had such a hectic and also hot week (it was over 100 F today and yesterday - haaaaaate!) that my mu was pretty basic and I wore it basically the whole week - Pale Barley with a variation of brown, gold or turquoise liner, Chanel Sable Rose on the cheeks and for lipstick I either wore Thrills or Hellbound l/g. Sable Rose was a rediscovery - I remember getting it a few summers ago and then I forgot about it because I was kinda underwhelmed. Imagine my surprise when I tried it again it it's definitely no bronzer for me, but a perfectly nice bronzey-rose blush!

Sounds like basic, but really very pretty looks Anneri!!!! This was a weird week for me too. It took me 3 days to unpack from a 7 day trip
