Beige Sunshine is almost as awesome as fluorescent beige...

[littlepickle]

So named because I think all these bronzey shades like similar on me, and while Rushmetal and my Dior Shadow, beige sunshine look nothing alike in their pots, they do when applied. My friend Nicole & I were amused at one of the characters, Joanne, citing her favourite colour as 'fluorescent beige' in the movie Precious so I thought it was quite amusing to have a colour called Beige Sunshine. What's up with that Dior? Have you ever soon sunshine that is distinctly beige in colour?

Rant over...

FACE:
MAC Studio Fix Fluid NW15 - I'm trying this out, what do you guys think? The cover is fuller than I'm used to, but that's okay

I thought it was too dark but my friend Kimberley thinks it's too pale. Give me your opinions, experts!
Australis Fresh & Flawless Pressed Powder - Natural
Clinique Blush - Precious Posy

EYEBROWS:
ZA Cosmetics Everbrows Eyebrow pencil - Br21
Revlon Brow Gel

EYES:
Coastal Scents Gel Eye liners - Silk White as base, True Black
MAC Pigments in Rushmetal and White
Shu Uemura Drawing Pencil - 11 Me Bronze Gold

Nothing on lips.

Before I added the black liner - felt too naked.

Just did this to test out my new Coastal Scents liners and thought I'd add it

Just a quick, imperfect one.

my two cents: use a concealer or a light beige base under your eyeshadow especially if you're going to do a sheer beige like that so that the color shows rather than skin. Concealer or a base will give you a nice clean, even toned canvas

and PS from the pictures, the foundation color looks like it's the right color for you

Thanks Baci! Much appreciated

Littlepickle, you have GORGEOUS skin and eyes! I wish that Studio Sculpt worked that well for me. I think I should've gone with NC15 instead.

Baci... in your FOTD's, you use concealer as a base. Is that only on your eyes or do you use it all over your face? If it's all over, it doesn't look heavy at all. Just curious

(sorry for semi-hijacking your thread Littlepickle.. forgive me!)

Very pretty! I agree, the foundation matches perfectly.
