Alrighty, my first photo posts on here.

I'll post a couple of looks I did on a friend for a good girl/bad girl shoot she did with David Kane. Here's the good girl look.

Face: The base is Mac Studio Sculpt in NC15 set with Number 7 light loose powder. I used Benefit blush in Throb on the cheeks.
Eyes: Urban Decay Prep and Prime, Barry M Dazzle dust - white.
Mac shadow - Lala and and Urban Decay shadow - YDK.
Bobbi Brown Gel liner and Dior Show mascara. Urban Decay Black and White cream liners. The false lashes were Boots own brand.
Brows: Benefit Brow Zings in Medium.
Lips: Number 7 shimmer highlighter on the cupid's bow. The Lipstick was the model's own in a light, creamy pink which I put a small coating on followed by Mac Clear Lip Glass.

And since I'm posting, here's the typical retro look I do on myself. Sorry about the bad quality photos, in the process of getting a new camera. My hair has changed from red to purple to black since. Haha.

Face: Mac Studio Fix in NC15, 7 Light Loose powder. Mac Blush in Cute.
Eyes: Shimmer Dust in Silver, Urban Decay Shadow in Half baked and Twice baked, Mac Penultimate liner, Benefit Badgal Lash, Urban Decay cream liners in Brown(can't remember which shade exactly) and White.
Brows: I think I must have forgotten to do those properly but if I used anything it would have been Brow Zings in Medium.
Lips: Mac Red liner and Mac lipstick in Russian Red.

So, my BFF is staying with me until next Saturday when she moves back to the states, and so we got bored...and naturally played with makeup. I love all things retro/vintage...and I LOVE the show Mad Men, so I did a 50's inspired look to put here.

Please excuse the tired look - it was like, 2AM.

Face:
MAC Studio Finish Finish in (the wrong color for me) NC30
Bare Minerals in Medium Beige and Medium Tan

Eyes:
MAC Prep + Prime for Eyes
Coastal Scents palettes (only two colors =])
Kate liquid eyeliner pen
DiorShow mascara in black

Lips:
CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain in 440
