Hey guys - just wondering whether I could pick your brains on something...

On the weekend I used Satin Taupe and Vanilla pigment - OMG. These two seriously are BFF.

Anyway, I did Vanilla on the lid, Tempting on the upper crease and then Satin Taupe on the crease & outer V and deepened it with a wee bit of Carbon. Shroom & Retrospeck for highlight.

My predicament was finding a blusher that would suit this...
Despite using Tempting, the overall eye colour was more the taupe/brown/purple and not really warm at all... but not really cool either. lol.
Is there such a thing as a cool brown/purple?

Peach blushers didn't look right, Stark Naked and Blonde MSF didn't look right, Earth 2 Earth looked awful... ended up with Redhead MSF, but still didn't really hit the spot.

Any blusher recommendations for cool brown/purple eye makeup???

Also, I am not sure about Earth 2 Earth anymore!!!! lol

 

[simplyenchantin]

Thanks Nat^^ I will have to tell Kira that you liked my eyeliner lol!

 

[MrsMay]

Ali - Blushbaby could possibly work with this... it's kinda a coolish toned brown

My look today was still minimal with a pop of colour

Eyes:
UDPP
Vanilla pigment - lash to brow
Coco pigment - crease
Aqualine liquid last liner
CG Volume Exact mascara

Skin:
Inglot skin primer
MUFE HD Foundation & Powder
Stark Naked BPB

Lips:
nothing yet... probably Pink Fish TLC

 

[darkorchid]

Catsmeow - that sounds like a beautiful look. I'm not an expert on blush but maybe just like a contour and a touch of bronzer might look good?

Sambibabe - aww yeah i forgot my cat liner that day and my brows were particularly thin and cliqueish

(I totally made that word up hah)

 

[sambibabe]

Ali, I would have used Moon River, because it has no colour, but lots of shimmers, so my brain can stay dormant and idle. Really, I would have used Nars Amour, which is meant to be peachy pink, but it is pale bronze on me.

Yeah I dunno about what blush to use - maybe neutral Blushbaby would be the go (might have to get that one). Dunno. I think Stark Naked probably wouldn't have been as bad if I hadn't had lashings of peachy blushes on underneath. lol. Perhaps I'll try a bronzer next time and a little Stark Naked or Blonde MSF on me' apples.

I'm slightly adverse to GDs now... I had a bad bad bad experience with my Earth to Earth blusher on the weekend. Must've used a heavier hand than usual because I ended up looking ridiculous - you know like those old ladies who smear a tonne of blush on their cheeks? Yeah - like that! + sparkly!

Sambibabe - you're still a fan of MR?

 

[simplyenchantin]

I know how you feel, CatsMeow. Sometimes I go a bit nuts with Grandduo and look like a clown. Sponges help lift/move blush without removing foundation

 

[CatsMeow]

Oh yeah, and does MAC have a red l/s that isn't blue based?
(but looks good). lol.

I have Red She Said, but it's pretty blue based. And my other Dior l/s is blue based as well. Most of the swatches in the forum are blue based ones. I'm looking for a warmer red lippy.

Does anyone have Lady Bug or Lady Danger?

 

[simplyenchantin]

I have Lady Bug, it's lovely. Less in your face than Russian Red, I can wear Lady Bug pretty much every day without lipliner etc.

Let me know if you want swatches!

Oooh... if you have time for swatches, that would be great.

Is it like a tomato red?
