EOTD: Sugarpill Buttercupcake & NYX Green...


Last EOTD of the month so I'll make this a quickie - have lots of blogs to check out over at Ingrid's Monday Makeup Madness Link Up Party before I hit the hay  Dug deep into my drawers and found some old favourites. Sugarpill Buttercupcake, a stunning matte yellow gold, and a very soft foresty green from the NYX Bohemian Chic Nude Matte Collection - this is years old, but still has plenty of life left in it...


I stroked essence white kajal all over the top lid, patted the Buttercupcake along the lashline, and blended in the NYX forest green up to the crease. Waterline was Revlon Colourstay Eye Liner in Jade...


Foundation was Lancôme Teint Visionnaire, cheeks were Lacura Mineral Cream Blush in Soft Coral, and I added some Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer in Luminous Bronze Light (where have you been all my life?). Lips were Mirenesse Lip Bomb #11 - loved this nude shade, but it was past its use by date and smelt funny, so I tossed it when I got home...



More looks coming in December - might even have a play with some Christmassy themes 

Take care of you,

  1. I'm always amazed at how opaque your lower waterline is. I seem to have a Teflon coated waterline. Do you have a special technique? I usually leave my lower lash line bare, but go bold with my wing. I tried a coloured waterline today & failed again (MNY Color Show pencil).

    1. The waterline sure takes some work hon - I wipe it with a clean dry cotton bud, then layer the crayon over and over. It works better with some types than others - best is kajal or kohl, and it's soothing too. I find the waterline the hardest eye "place" to get right - sometimes I have to reapply between photos!

    1. You're so sweet Lily - thank you. Not sure I can pull off any eye shadow colour, but I've learnt which hue variation works best for me xxx

  3. Kat, you have the most beautiful eye colour and that green makes the blue in your eyes stand out even more! Love how you used the lime green eyeliner, the shades all work so well together!

    1. Hi there gorgeous gal! Thanks my dear - the trick is to to have LOTS of colour variations to choose from, believe me it's way too difficult if you only have a handful in your kit ♥
