This was posted today on specktra.net’s “Shop Your Stash Challenge” thread, and decided I’d try it out! I don’t think I’ve ever really used Cool Heat since I’ve bought it. Turned out well, a bit smoky and dark for a day look, but definitely something I’m not scared to try out again. A blue look I like?!

Deflt makes a beautiful base for Cool Heat!
Something I didn’t think of until now, but I bet MAC Blue Brown pigment would also go well with this look. I’ve had that pigment since last fall and still haven’t gotten around to using it, so I might have to repeat this look with that pigment sometime soon.

I should’ve done Parrot under my lower lashes, not sure why I didn’t?! I didn’t realize Amber Lights was so orange-y, or so it appeared today. Still a neat look. Still plugging away on my journal of looks I need to try!!

The topic of MAC’s Honey Lust eyeshadow came up last night when I was formspringing my friend… realizing I haven’t used it in literally years (that I can remember), I decided I’d give it a try today. I really loathe that eyeshadow, I really do. It’s just about the only MAC eyeshadow I’ll flat out say I hate. And guess what? Still loathe it. I think I ended up with more fallout all over my face than I did with actual product on my lid… sucks, because it is a pretty color! It’s just a glitterbomb. I suppose I could try applying it wet, but is it worth that amount of effort?!
I paired it with Trax so I could have a look of what seems to be MAC’s two most hated eyeshadows according to people on the forums, heh. Now I do like Trax, so all hope wasn’t lost today!

Hmm, trying to use more pinks lately One of my more neglected palettes indeed. Today was a fairly calm/simple look…
Face
MAC Mineralize loose foundation in Medium
MAC Studio Touch Up Stick Concealer in NW20
MAC Tahitian Sand Beauty Powder
Eyes
MAC Fresco Rose Paint Pot
MAC Yogurt Eyeshadow
MAC Sushi Flower Eyeshadow
MAC Pink Freeze Eyeshadow

MAC Blacktrack Fluidline

I rarely line my upper lashes, let alone with Blacktrack, so this was something different. Just felt that it was too plain and needed liner.
