Theme Makeup with a Purpose

Oh I keep forgetting I have Rainy Season. I need to work it in. I was just thinking yesterday that I hadn't used Casino lipstick yet. I didn't use it because I was going to a Nars appointment and like to pull out products from the brand I haven't used in awhile if I can. Great idea to pair it with Pink Guilt.


I have an EL paint pot type product. I don't think I have that color though. I have forgotten all about them. I have been using LM Artist palette all week. Which prompted me to buy the new one yesterday. I really didn't need to but you know how it is. I will try your combinations. Thanks!

I haven't been doing the challenge but I was using my pink bag and wallet this week. I switched out of the bag but I'm still using the wallet.

I'll see if I can work in some pink makeup colors this week.
I was really making a concerted effort to wear items that I've had for several weeks but had not yet worn and Casino fit that bill. Pink Guilt is so amazing---it's like liquid
rose gold for your lips. I find it compliments many shades, but especially nudes.

I've managed to work some pinks into my predominantly burgundy makeup looks. I've been obsessed with burgundy and mauve lately and both play so well with pink.

I thought of your obsession this morning when I bought some burgundy pants lol. I thought "I wonder if @megdal07 would approve? I also bought a tunic with mostly burgundy print. And then I went downstairs and bought more ABH than I planned to...is that why it's called "Impulse" cosmetics at Macy's lol?

​Oh Meddy totally approves!!! I recently purchased burgundy Lysse leggings to go w/my burgundy Cardy Uggs & burgundy floppy hat. I have Chanel, Malice NP on at the very moment. I wore those items with a silk floral print tunic w/lots of burgundy in it.

Not only do I approve-------I applaud you!!!!

In this sea of burgundy I wore my pink BCA ribbon pin and I changed the date and second hand on my Apple Watch to Vintage Rose!

Hello ladies! Long time no see...

I'm back from our vacation in Sicily (which was nice, but we had torrential downpours for the first week, and then the airline lost my luggage on the flight back, so that was quite stressful) and have finally settled back into normalcy!

I've gotten a few beauty related bits and bobs during the time, but not much, because we're really moving to Asia next spring. So, come March, I'll chat with you all from Shanghai! In the meantime, I'll really have to cut back on makeup purchases. (Boo.)

I got EL's Liquid Lip Potion in Naughty Naive (coral) and the Little Black Primer at the Duty Free, got Fashion Revival and Nice Composure Paintpot from MAC, and managed to order the Holiday Meteorites. So exited for those! I hope they arrive this week.

Also: Aradhana!!!!! So happy to see you!

During vacation time I wore the most basic makeup, but since I've come back I at least managed to work in one pink item at least into makeup looks. I wore Fashion Revival a lot, At Dusk EDB, tried to finish Clinique's chubby in whoppin watermelon, and the pink Miley VG. Not really elaborate looks, though, but I'm quite happy to manage those easy and quick looks lately and not living in my pjs day after day. Working from home can be challenging lol.
Will try to get back into 'real' looks!

Likewise!

I'm repeating Tuesdays look.

It isn't pink, but I'm claiming it since it's in the pink family.

I need to get my mammogram, my friend 39 just found out she has stage 3 or 4 breast cancer.


Eyes
Melody on the lid, with a burgundy color from the viseart dark matters color in the corner and a brown in the crease.
Looking Good (burgundy) paint pot as the liner. I don't think I like non black liners on me. THey don't really stand out or emphasize anything.

Cheeks: today I wore Golden Sun, yesterday I wore MAC bad girl gone good. (whatever that riri blush was called)

Lips: Chanel Rouge Noir. I love this one. I had a Bite lipstick made in a similar color but freaking lost it. I'm so upset about that, but happy this color is similar. I'm going to call them and see if they can remake it and send it if I give them the ingredients.

Brows. Nars brow gel. I do my eyebrows myself and completely messed them up. LOL


THis past weekend all I remember is Quick Sizzle on my lips and the bronze Armani Runway tint with greens. LOVE THIS TINT. I think it is a good investment if you don't have it. It's the perfect copper bronze. Not too brown, or gold. Bronze just like a penny.


Oh I forgot today's foundation. I'm experimenting, so I really don't remember what I wear from one day to the next. LMAO

Concealer: Mineralize in nc44 topped with EX powder foundation in F300
I think I'm officially ready to leave MAC alone. I look orange. I don't think I'm finally changing to orange undertones, unless it's the red from this Summer leaving? #rambling IDK! LOL

Get your mammogram Pretty!
yes ma'am! I had my first one last year, way before they tell you to get one, but I no longer buy the guidelines that say you have to wait until you are 45. NO way. No how! Not with my families history, and this is the second friend who got it under 40 or at 40.
