I've gone blue today... for obvious reasons!
Bit dramatic for work and I look like an extra from Boogie Nights but I think 'eh, it's my last week here!! Gotta make an exit... lol

EYES:
UDPP
Bare Study PP (which I dropped - thankgod the crack didn't go completely through the jar - bugger! I'm going back to paints (bare canvas)... PP SUCK!!) *sorry for the outburst - had an interesting morning*
Shroom (highlight)
Sea Me SS (crease - i've learnt that SS kinda suck to blend through this exercise this morning...)
Bell Bottom Blue (crease)
Quick Frost (inner 3/4 lid)
Carbon (Outer V - Going to get Contrast today, which i think would've been HEAPS better for this look)
Penultimate (thick upper line & flick)
Dior Show (mascara)
Inglot White Pencil (lower lashline)

FACE
Usual stuff (MAC mineralise satin finish blah blah)
Stark Naked with a lil' bit of Margin mix
Inglot Bronzer (I fake tanned yest..)

LIPS
Mauvelous (no idea of the breed)
Victoria Secret Beauty Rush Lipgloss

Yep - going to go and get another bare canvas... PPs don't agree with me on TOO many different levels!!! (sorry for the multiple whinges throughout this post chickies!)

 

[sambibabe]

MrsMay, don't forget to look out for Redhead MSF today!!

Stars N Rockets looks just like Pink Pearl piggie on my lid!!

Especially against Blackground p/p

It is okay, Paint Pots.. I still love you. They have feelings too you know, CatsMeow!

 

[CatsMeow]

I know, I man-handle my PPs. lol

 

[CatsMeow]

Well, gone with Prussian instead of Contrast coz it's more matte. Lets hope I don't regret my choice!!!

Oooh and got a sample of Blackground PP so I can make my own mind up as to whether I want to get that or alternatively pursue getting my paws on Sharkskin SS (after complaining about PPs at the MAC counter... they tried to convince me that not all PPs are crap like bare study). Tell ya what, the 'sample' I got was about 1/4 of a PP jar. Woohoo!

 

[ohnna-lee]

I was going to just throw on a quick make up and head out the door to get to Naimies before it closed... uh, I didn't quite make it but I like the new look. Which is uploaded to my FB
Blondes Gold piggie with Smoke Signals piggie, placement inspired somewhat but a Clara Bow tut I watched last night.

Teddy eye kohl

Lash Blast mascara in dark brown, because my a$$ believes if there is one of anything it should be black and didn't bother checking til she got the purchase home... I am rather liking the effect and am becoming a fan of this new mascara.

Espresso for brows but thinking of checking out Mystery or a pencil... suggestions?

I used Laura Mercier foundation, powder, and primer.

Bone Beige/ Emphasize Sculpt and Shape

Blooming blush on apples and blended well and heavy into cheeks to bring a pop of color (this is my favorite blush!)

Refined Golden as a overall dusting to tie in the entire face ( I also love this!)

 

[sambibabe]

I know.. A lot of people don't like Bare Study, but I love it! Have you tried NYX jumbo pencils? Apparently 1 or 2 of their colours are very similar to Sharkskin.. My Aussie Ben Nye supplier sells it for $6.95 (not sure)!

ohnna-lee, love Blonde's Gold piggie!! Have you tried Brow Pencil? The one that you don't need to sharpen it (can't remember the name)..

I want to try a pencil, I know I always hear about Lingering which is a constant point.

So something along those lines.

First time wearing my Blondes Gold and I am in love!

What's NYX? $6.95 sounds a lot nicer than $35. heheh

I'm gonna try blackground tomorrow for my official verdict (re PPs) - so you might see me do a complete 180 tomorrow on my opinion of them.

I've heard not all PPs are created equal and that moss scape is another one I should check out as it's one of the better ones to apply.

Any suggestions for pigments to put on top of blackground?

I havent tried Bare Study but I have Rubenesque, Indianwood, and Mosscape (among others) and these one apply beautifully... another tip with them is if you store them upside down so the label is showing then they dont dry out as fast.

re: blackground... mmm.... Copperized would look like a tarnished gold over blackground.... I cant remember what other piggies you have - I'm drawing a complete blank!! i needed blackground this morning when I was playing with pink pearl pigment though - that would have been hot!

 

[ohnna-lee]

Obviously I put a lot of stuff on my face, I forgot my lips and paint pot...

Constructivist, and for the lips Naked Space and Sunsonic from The Sci Fi Delity collection, it takes me so much effort with this lip product and for some odd reason it doesn't want to meld and I really have to work it in with a brush to get a smooth transition and not some liney,

mushy mess.

[simplyenchantin]

I hope everyone had a lovely break!

Today I am wearing...

Dainty Mineralise blush
Golden Bronzer

Eyes:

Pearl CCB
Beige-ing S/S
Inglot p/g in:12, 24, 28 and 82 (pictured below in order)
Richline f/l
Feline eye kohl
Plushlash mascara

Lips:

Lightly Ripe l/s
Dreamy l/g

 

[MrsMay]

^^ hmm, I still reckon copperized... but I'm very partial to that colour

i reckon the other khaki green would have been night light - which also goes very well wtih copperized

 

[sambibabe]

NYX is drugstore/pharmacy brand, but I found it is quite good, especially the jumbo pencils.

Ohnna-Lee, I have Spiked and I wear it under Bark e/s. At least that way, I don't have to worry about my brows disappearing in summer!! Not a pretty look having no brows. LOL.. you probably forgot your lips, because they are so pigmented!

catsmeow, Do you have Vanilla p/g? Surprisingly, it looks pretty on top of Blackground.. I like any duochrome pigments against Blackground. The colour really pops! Same goes Delft p/p.. It is my favorite!

 

[MrsMay]

^^^ yes! Old Gold pigment would look stunning against blackground!!

 

[CatsMeow]

I don't have Vanilla unfortunately but I'll give Old Gold a whirl tomorrow.
I wonder what Steel Blue would look like ontop of blackground.. hmm.. it'd be pretty dark methinks.

Simplyenchantin - inglot #82 pigment looks awesome! Those would've been a great combo.
