What are you wearing today?

[xLongLashesx]

I decided to give sable another try today and it's working..


SFF
Coastal scents peach blush
Improvise mineralise blush (next to no pigment in this so it's just a highlighter)

UDPP
Shimmersand s/s
sumptuous olive on lid to just above crease and under eye
grain on inner 1/3 of crease
sable on outer 2/3 of crease
olive looked too gold so added a layer of Fiction on the lid to green it up
EL sand to highlight
Powersurge kohl on lower waterline (looks amazing on brown eyes!)
Flirt jaded e/l on lower lashes, nothing on upper
As much mascara as I could pack on top and bottom.

High Tea l/s

Hey ladies - managed to finally get my act together and post a FOTD for today's look...

I did a smokey grey/blue look with some falsies. Dug out my Chanel quad to use 2 silvers - and the colour pay-off was better than what I remembered!

PS - been missing chatting to you guys!! As of next Tuesday, I will have more of an opportunity to get on here.

I did a white/brown/greyish/i dunno smokey look last night haha. I used like a gazillion colours from my neutral palette and some black tied e/s and suspicion e/s with sharkskin and lemon chiffon s/s as bases. It was pretty messy, I just tried to blend it out as best as possible and hoped my glasses would hide the mess

I'm wearing some new Inglot e/s. Purpley-plum-taupe (lol) colours.
I still don't like plums on me... but they are great colours for the kit. Can't remember the #s tho. Hmmm...

MUFE HD #115/#117
MUFE HD Powder
Cubic BPB

EYES:

Cranberry e/s (crease)
3 Shades of Plummy Inglot colours (who knows what #s they are...) (lid, darkest colour outer 1/3)

I am wearing plum today too. I don't like plums on me as it goes 'muddy', but somehow UD plums stayed vibrant. Then I went to Bobbi Brown and the girl tried undereye corrector on me and instead of correcting my dark circles, she made panda eyes (she managed to smear all my mascara and left it like that for me to walk around) and also aged me 10+ years by creating lots of creases. Grrrr..

I was psyched to see this thread!!! Thanks for all of the terrific ideas - can't wait to try them out!

Today I have on a combo that I'm surprised to discover I like, given that Passionate is such a strong color for my NW20/25 self. Here's what I did:

Girl Friendly p/p all over lid to crease
Phloof to highlight
Sushi Flower on inner 1/3 of lid
Illamasqua Forgiveness in crease and outer v (sort of a plummy-brown - new from Sephora!)
Passionate in center 1/3 of lid
Crystal Avalanche in inner corner blended up to meet the Forgiveness on inner crease
UD Rockstar to line

Blooming Blush

NYX Shell lipstick (Black Label)
NYX Sweetheart gloss blended over, not just on top

It would be a simple neutral look without the Passionate, but the Passionate just *pops* without being over-the-top. Very cool.

Get it!!! I was so surprised at how gorgeous and pigmented it is and that I took so long to get it!! fabulous purpley blue kinda colour, I love it

 

[rockin26]

I tried something new today from a website Sal told me about and I wanted to use some of the colours I hadn't been giving much love to. It came out ok but the colours are all pretty similar so it's kinda blended together and the colours aren't distinguishable, which I prefer. Anyway still a nice look which work well as a bridal look on someone with a darker skin tone.

Hi everyone,
I had a super busy week, preparing for an exhibition. So I only had tinted moisturizer (man, now this stuff looks heavier than my Jap foundations), brows, Bare Study p/p and lip gloss everyday. Anyhoo, I need to catch up with my sleep, but with another major event coming up soon, I doubt I will have any sleep-in time, let alone playing with makeups. Boo..

Miss seeing FOTDs here.. Mich, you should have posted your pic!
