I decided to use my Blue Brown pigment again; last time I used it I didn't like how reddish it turned out, so I bought a blue shadestick as a base and I like it a lot more! Here's the results.

Thank you. Yeah, first I had it with just the lipgloss which is a raisin pink-purple shade, then I remembered reading on here some people using the blue-brown pigment as a lipshade so I put some of that on top with my finger and blended and it looked SO much better! I will def be using the pigment on my lips again, I didn't think it would work but it totally does.

Hey I really like that lip colour. Would it be too much trouble for you to post a swatch of the original lip colour? I don't have that kind, and if I know what it looked like first I might be able to match it. Actually I think I'm going to have to copy that whole look. Hot!

I didn't get a good up close pic of just my lips, here is a crop. It looks quite pink here because I didn't put a lot on, if I put on more it looks like a grape colour. In the tube it looks like a dark purple colour but it obviously goes on a bit more sheer.

But anyway here is the original colour without the pigment on top:

I never thought to put blue brown over blue. I mean I've heard of using it over a dark base, but not blue. Nice to see something different!

I applied the s/s around my eyes and lower lash line, and used my finger to blend it upward a bit so it didn't look so harsh. But it's probably most opaque on the actual lid part of my eyes.

My holy grail to keep my bluebrown wearable instead of bruisey is Root CCB or dipdown fluidline. I like your idea of using a blue base to bring out the blueness of it though, I will definately try my waveline f/l or blueboy paint and see what happens with this pig. Beautiful job!
