And pink lips go great with a neutral eye (that is my "fall" look lately - neutral eyes and dark lips in burgundy or brown - I bore myself, but I look forward to doing a few looks with the new burgundy shadow from MACnificent Me, which somehow made it into my bag yesterday afternoon...)
Tee hee, I quoted myself! So, I got A Little Lusty today and also came out with the Laura Mercier Sleek and Chic palette, He Said, She Said and Ms. Diva PLW lip pencils, and VG Miley Cyrus 2. Oh, and some Jack Black lip balms. I cannot wait to make some looks with the LM palette.

i can't believe i haven't been here for four months!!!!
i did not go back and read the 1022 posts that i missed, but i hope you have all been well!? i've missed you!!!

i decided to go to school full-time while i work full-time, so for the next year and a half, i may only be here sporadically but will try to keep up with what everybody is doing!

what is the current theme?
is it BCAM?

i didn't leave the house today (because i was up to my eyeballs in an accounting textbook) but i did apply burberry eyeshadow in almond, nars audacious mascara and becca shimmering skin perfector in opal. i think it was adequately understated for the occasion. ;)

Hey! We were wondering what you had gotten yourself up to! That's great news re going back to school. I hope things are going well so far. We've been on a bit of a theme break but we're back for fall. BCAM is Breast Cancer Awareness Month so we'll incorporate pink into looks during the month.

I'm really loving the latest offerings from Laura Mercier. I still haven't picked up the Laura Mercier Fall collection and now I want a bunch of the holiday collection. I'm ready for fall looks. I've been just doing quick looks. Mostly Armani runway eye tint on the eyes and liner and mascara.

Today, I wanted to use the Chanel Tisse Automne palette.

Face
Bobbi Brown serum corrector in Dark Peach
Bobbi Brown serum concealer in Golden
Sacha Cosmetic powder over concealer
Tatcha Luminizing spray
Tom Ford Warm Almond powder foundation
Smashbox 24 hour concealer on spots (I found this works better if you apply it and blend immediately. It sets fast so you can do that baking thing that I usually do).
Laura Mercier Ritual Bronzer - I wore this a bunch last week and I really want the Holiday palette with this in it.


Eyebrows
Gucci brow pencil

Eye
I put the pink all over, bronze on lid and deep blackish green in outer V,
Tom Ford duo liner
Chanel Le Volume mascara in Noir
Chanel Argent (copper) liner on lower lash line and waterline
UD Perversion -tightline

Cheeks
Chanel Alezane

Lips
Chanel Melancholie RCS

I'm going to try harder to post in this thread.

Wow Aradhana!!! It's been a minute. It's so good seeing you here!!! I'm glad you've been off doing great things. Congrats and wishing you all the best in your
academic pursuits!!!

Yes! We're on the BCAM theme----our Genesis---Remembering those we have lost and survivors like myself and hoping to encourage all ladies to conduct breast
self exams and to go for mammograms.

Ahhhh.. I didn't know what BCAM was so I was so lost. I can get down with pink, I think, for this month. It's definitely my least favorite color ever but it might be nice for lip colors, eyeliners, and cheek colors, oh and highlighters! It's an excuse to get a couple of Sephora liners, (On Wednesday's We Wear Pink) and I can sneak some pink into purple looks. Or do a lot of fuchsia! I'm up for this challenge (and what a challenge it will be) lol.

Today the only pink I had time to slap on my face was LM Ritual. That has plumish/pink tones so I'm gonna say that counts, lol. I wore Vamp It Up lipstick today (Wet n Wild) and I go soooo many compliments. I love dark fall lips. Yas!

This is a stretch, but here is my face for the day (my candidate for pink is in bold below). FACE: same foundation/concealer/powder routine as rest of week (it is posted a few days ago I think) EYES: WnW Fergie primer, Shimmer MAC Carbon, all over lids and JUST into crease MAC Trax, blended thoroughly into crease and just a bit higher (it pulls pink with cool shades on me, and the fallout, which I usually never have with this shade, is making visual interest on my lids) Sephora waterproof eye pencil, Flashy Black, on upper lash line and blended into lower with a bit of Carbon Stila GlamourEyes mascara LIPS: NYX Liquid Suede, Stone Fox My nails are polished a similar shade of grey, with black crackle polish as well on my accent nail. I am in a grey mood... wearing black and grey today too. I don't know why, considering that it is going to be upwards of 100 degrees today.
