Ok, really I love wearing most colors. Except light pink...it never looks good on me, which sucks, cuz I love pen-n-pink!

Anyhow, this was me for work today. If you notice some weird sprinkly things on the eyelid, it was my reflects teal that I tried to stick on the lid, to no avail, so I put it on my lashes instead.

I'm wearing
Garden of Wisdom moisture serum
MAC prep +prime, studio fix foundation, and MSF powder
MAC blush in Dame, Pettiocoat on top
Fyrinnae mineral highlight in Confidence
MAC 100 degrees pearlizer on top of that

Eyeshadow:
MAC warm chill inner corner, BE's Loli outer corner, Fyrinnae's Japan a tiny bit in outer crease (I was trying to create the illusion of an actual crease instead of a fat roll, lol)
Fyrinnae Pure Sugar under brows
Mascara is NYX Doll Eye (volume)over that voluminous crap that I've decided I don't like, so I'm a bit spider leggy

Lips in picture weren't done yet, that's just BE's Buxom in clear glitter, but I ended up putting Prestige lipliner in Silk, with Phosporelle on top.

This is absolutely gorgeous. I love Warm Chill but never seem to be able to do much with it. It's so light I always feel washed out whenever I wear it.

Would you consider posting a tutorial of this? You blended your colors so beautifully and I'd love to give this a try.

I don't have a video camera to do a tutorial, but I could take pictures step by step if you need me to. In the meantime, I came up with this brilliant plan, lol:

First off, CHAPSTICK is my best friend. I use the Chapstick Naturals...it's a bunch of different butters in it, so it's not all gunky going on. It REALLY makes the colors stand out and not look washed out.

I prime my lid from lashes to brows with UDPP.

Everything in the RED outlined area is then primed up with Chapstick. I slather it on, and then use my finger to rub it in a bit.

In the BLUE area is where I put Warm Chill. I apply it pretty heavily, because when I blend, some of it does wash out a bit.

In the PINK area is where I put BE's Loli, and I also used an angled liner brush to extend Loli just in my fake crease to the inner corner of my eye, at the edge of Warm Chill.

I use ELF's Studio brush (the contour one) to apply Pure Sugar under my brows. I then pick up a few specks of Pure Sugar with the same brush and then use that to blend the greens into the white. I go from outer corner to inner corner, so that (hopefully), it will fade, darkest to lightest. At this point, I would also apply a bit more Warm Chill to just the inner corner, and Loli to the outer edge, and kinda blend in towards the center of my eye a smidge.

Now I brush off my ELF contour brush, and blend right where Warm Chill and Loli meet. Teeny tiny swipes, and I go side to side, while going from top to bottom and then back up.

In the GREEN squiggle, I get Fyrinnae's Japan (it's a really dark blue/green), and apply it there, in my attempt to create dimension. I want it to look like there's an actual crease there, because in reality, my crease is much lower and not even visible when my eyes are open. I use the angled liner brush and just kinda pat it in there.

I dunno if any of that made sense, or even helped you, but I hope it did!!
