2 days of neutrals

I was on a neutral kick I guess.  I have a feeling it will be ending because I received my HiFi order today!! I took advantage of their sale and ordered a bunch of F/S shadows.  Yippeee!!

For this first look, I used only my 88 warm palette from coastal scents.  After seeing Lillian's red lip look, I was inspired to do a neutral eye with some brighter lips.  I opted for hot pink, though I loved her look with red lips.  The lipstick is from prestige, I don't have it with me now but will post the color later :) (Edit to say:  The lippie is Prestige Madrid... I love it because I have a strong attraction to shimmer free lippies.  This is a creamy matte finish, non drying and highly pigmented.)

Excuse my fooked up wing on my liner :(





This second look features neutral lips (MAC shy girl lipstick), TKB trading's glimmer beige on lid with a soft brown and a deeper reddish brown in crease from the 88 palette.  My cheeks are Aromaleigh verve.






Thanks for looking!!

  1. I really like the first look: the colors, the lips, everything. Can you make suggestions for colors similar to your lid and crease from AL or another brand?

  6. Phyrra- Thanks!! For the crease I used mattes. First, I put a lighter cool brown throughout the crease (try AL Slate maybe) then deepened V with a touch of darker matte brown (either willow or umber might work). The lid was a glittery champagne color, that I don't really have a dupe for (maybe urban decay Sin w/ some polyester bride mixed in). I highlighted with a shimmery off white- AL's Fiona would be perfect. I will try to do a recreate tomorrow using some AL colors :)

    Thanks SS- love my TKB stuff.

    Thanks Marcey and Heaven!! :)

    Thia- I picked up Shy Girl at the suggestion of the MAC artist who helped me match my foundation, I love it. Its a cremesheen so the texture is amazing too. Thanks!

  7. I love both of them but the 2nd one won my heart. Can't wait to see what you're gonna do with your new piggies ! I'll try to restrain myself until the next week end before reapplying make up because I did an EOTD on friday and my eyes looked worse since today ( I HATE THOSE CRAZY ALLERGIES !!!!)

  8. Neutral looks are great on you! The 2nd one especially is nice to me. I think it's the lid colour that I really like. I believe I have that TKB pigment...but probably haven't used it yet.
