Hey the sun came out today - miracles do happen hey? Thought I'd celebrate the appearance of those glorious rays by posting another Winter-into-Spring EOTD. And being orange and green (a fave combo of a darling gal pal), this one's especially for Fawn ♥
This terracotta-ish shadow is truly a blast from the past - came in one of the first multi-palettes I ever bought, by DB, and from memory it was around $14 plucked from the depths of a discount chemist throw-out bin. The beauty of it is that there's two pans in this colour - one matte and one shimmery, so I can blend the two together without losing any vibrancy or dimension. Interestingly I applied it over the top of Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Pomegranate Punk, which is quite a deep brownish red - gave the orange a slight pinky tinge, which is what I was after to match my outfit...
On the waterline is essence I Have a Green Longlasting Eye Pencil - one of the most brilliant crayons in my kit (around $2 I think). Just adore the colour (matches my eyes pretty well) and I can get a good 4 or 5 hours wear out of it before my watery eyes wash away the colour on the outer half...
The lipstick is a mis-labelled MUA one (says "Bare", but the second "Bare" I ordered is a nude) - still it's a pretty corally pink, and I topped it with a Napoleon Perdis freebie gloss that toned in well. Cheeks are essence Heat Wave - LOVE this blush!
In the crease and on the outer corner, I added charcoal from the MUA LUXE Pretty Edgy palette - a magically pigmented matte that blends so easily. Speaking of which, I'm giving away this palette - have you entered yet? Only five days left!
Take care of you,
kats xxx
Love the peachy effect you got with that combination! Very pretty!
