Hello
Its gray and gloomy today so I decided to go for some crazy brights for my eyes. I barely use my 120 palette. The colors are all pretty and well pigmented, but they are quite soft and messy. With a sticky base, these shadows are pretty great. Too bad the palette has a weird, old lady, perfumey smell to it.
I used a new liner brush today and I still have to get used to it... liner looks a bit wonky.
Face:
MAC Strobe Cream
L'oreal Studio Secrets Perfecting primer, dotted onto nose and under eyes (this helps hide my pore-tasticness)
MAC Moisture Tint Tinted Moisturizer- Light
MAC Studio Fix powder- C2 dusted very lightly to set
NYX Pinky blush
NYX Taupe blush to contour
Eyes
Aromaleigh eye primer- light
120 palette white gold, yellow, orange, blend of 2 pinks and black for lower lashline
Ben Nye Toast on brow
Ben Nye Black cake liner
Cover Girl Lash Blast Fusion- Very Black
Lips are Barry M Pinky Peach lippie with NYX LaLa gloss

Fyrinnae- Wearable Yellow and Orange
super super excited! My fyrinnae order arrived (in under 2 weeks!!!) and I am in awe of the sparkly goodness. I have been trying to break my rut of purple and teal, so I decided to do my first fyrinnae look using yellow and orange. It was sooo very difficult to not reach for the beautiful teals and purples which pretty much made up the rest of my order.... my resolve will not hold up long.
To me, this combo seems surprisingly wearable. The colors are gorgeous and vibrant without being over the top and paired with the brown I definitely would rock this look to work. My original intention was to pair this with a deep magenta pink in the outer corner, but opted for the brown at the last moment. To me it kinda resembles a monarch butterfly :)
I used:
Milk jumbo pencil as base from lashes to brow
All Fyrinnae unless noted:
Banana Mochi on inner half of lid and inner lower lashline (Softly shimmery, almost frosted light golden yellow.)
Electro Koi on rest of lid, blended into yellow (Vibrant orange that's loaded with coordinating sparkle.)
Ultrasuede applied to outer V and into crease and along lower lashline ( Matte, velvety deep charcoal brown. Great for smokey looks and eyeliner.)
NYX Chrome eyeshadow -Orange Blended between electro koi and ultrasuede
Ben Nye Toast on brow bone
Rimmel Kohl Liner in White on waterline
(Ultrasuede is amazing. I love matte shadows and this one does not disappoint. It is such a perfect shade of brown and its blendability is amazing. The texture is lush and almost satiny... the pigmentation is amazing. )
My handsome rottweiler, he appears to be being swallowed by the couch.
Thanks so much for looking!!
