Theme Makeup with a Purpose

I haven't really been wearing makeup this week. I have a lot of manual labor to do this week and the heat has just been too much. I did use the sunset in the city pic as inspiration earlier this week and used Armani eye tints in new to me colors. Orange on the lid and Runway bronze in the outer V. Chanel Erable in the waterline. Kind of wished I had the gold eye tint for the city lights. Chanel Angelique blush and Lancome coral lipgloss.

So, I was on theme yesterday and did some kind of glittery blue look.
Maybe like the sun that is reflected in many windows? Something like that.

FACE:
DIY Crema Nuda
Bourjois Healthy Mix concealer
BareMinerals concealer
Max Factor Pastell Compact Blush in Nude Mauve (really great blush, is becoming a fast favourite of mine!)
Burberry Highlighting Powder in Nude Radiance

EYES:
UDPP
I used Siahi f/l as a base all over the lid
Let's Roll Dazzle Shadow patted over that (blue with green and gold glitter)
MAC Silverthorn to blend out edges
Hocus Pocus in crease (MAC)
Blanc Type to highlight inner corners and browbone
Kiko Chrystal Eyeliner in 06 (shimmery grey) for lower lashline
black liner for upper lashline
Catrice mascara
Anastasia Dipbrow in Ash Brown for brows

LIPS
Astor lip butter in a brownishmauvey nude

Love the description of your look. I've been on theme the few days that I've worn makeup, but more of a night skyline---smoky black and smoky blue.

Today I wore a City Skylines look inspired by the evening setting sun reflected off of buildings. The image in my ahead was prettier than my end result, which wasn't bad by any means, just not as successful as I would have hoped. I think using Cash Flow as the base was the primary culprit. That and Trax just wont translate it's prettiness from pan to lid. I'm going to try again tomorrow with the same inspiration and different products. Without further ado:

Primers:
- Laura Mercier Oil-Free Primer
- Wet n Wild Fergie Eyeshadow Primer
- Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray

Face:
- MUFE Face and Body foundation
- Cover FX Custom Cover Drops
- Becca Topaz SSP Liquid (mixed with foundation)
- Kryolan Anti-Shine Setting Powder
- Guerlain Four Seasons Bronzer, Ebony
- Bobbi Brown Bronzer in Deep Chocolate
- Laura Mercier Ritual bronzer
- Clinque Cola Pop blush
- Looxi Beauty Ever After highlighter
- MAC Espresso eyeshadow (brow powder)

**I forgot my brow highlight!!**

Eyes:
- UD Buck eyeshadow (all over)
- MAC Cash Flow Paint Pot (base)
- Prescriptves eye shadow, a sheer grey/blue/pewter/gold shade (lid - I don't know the name of the shadow)
- MAC Trax eye shadow (crease)
- MAC Nocturnelle eye shadow (outer lid and crease)
and mascara

Lips:
- MAC Love Nectar Lusterglass

As a bonus I'll just highlight some of the products I used yesterday that I think fit the challenge (sort of, it's open to interpretation right?)
- The Balm Betty and Cindy Loumanizers (Is it @Icecaramellatte or @Shars who layers those? Thanks or the suggestion!)
- MAC Matte Royal lipstick

Ta da!

I might have to do an Atlanta skyline look, with lots of green...



Nice! I did a look kinda like this today. But more of the in the water reflection of the sky line! I need to go to selfie classes. I always try to take a selfie to share my eyelooks with y'all but they never translate like how the IG girls' own translate haha.

Me!! How did you like it today? Today I used Becca's Champagne Pop with the blush from the MAC x Sharon Osbourne collection and it was very pretty. I really think that Champagne Pop was worth the hype.

I agree Shars-----Champagne Pop really lived up to the hype. I reach for it quite often.

I don't have the patience for selfies nor the skills required to get a good one in just 1 - 2 takes. It's exhausting!

I really liked it! Very pretty. Also Cindy Lou plus Looxi Beauty's Posh is gorgeous. I think tomorrow I am going to break myself away from my Looxi highlighters and revisit my Becca highlighters. Perhaps a Rose Gold +Topaz combo or Blushed Copper + Champagne Pop. Mmmm....

Blushed Copper and Champagne Pop are

. I used Blushed Copper as the first layer and then Champagne Pop over and slightly higher than BC! I need to get Topaz. That's the only one I'm missing. I don't think I need Moonstone so I'm not counting that.

That sounds so incredibly pretty Shars!!! I think Moonstone is the only one that I don't have, for no reason other than it never made it to my radar screen---too many
other distractions I suppose.

I probably shouldn't post since the look I did today was virtually the same as this one. But today was the first day I've done a full face in about a week. I did pick up the gold eye tint today. I wish I had worn it with this look again today as I was wearing a yellow and orange top.

Face
Tom Ford primer
Tatcha Luminizing mist
Tom Ford Warm Almond Powder Foundation
Becca Eye Brightener & Concealers in Treacle and Toffee
Armani Bronzer #200

Brows
Gucci eye brow pencil

Eyes
Fergie eye shadow primer
Armani orange eye tint on lid
Armani Runway eye tint on outer corners
Mac Uninterrupted eye shadow as transition
Tom Ford duo eyeliner pen on upper lash line
Urban Decay Perversion tightline
Chanel Ardent on waterline and lower lash line
Chanel Le Volume mascara in noir

Cheeks
Mac Bad Girl Gone Good blush
Mac Freshen Up highlighter

Lips
Mac Tart n Trendy lipstick
Chanel Calypso glossimer

I liked this look a lot better than the one I did a week ago. I'm not sure why. Oh I think it was the Ardent. I used Erable last time.
