    This was my first time using Heritage Rouge, so that’s good! This reminds me of the look I did a few days ago with Old Gold, just the colors reversed.

    I have an advising appointment today, so I decided to try something fairly neutral…

    And WTF, I hate applying eyeliner.  How I end up failing at it so hardcore I have no idea.  I did it way too thick today, but I didn’t think I was?!  ARGH

    Here’s today look! I did this completely random honestly!

    Products (all MAC unless noted):

    Face

    • Mineralized loose foundation in medium (109 brush)
    • Redhead Mineralized Skinfinish (168 brush)
    • Studio Touch Up Stick concealer in NW20 (194 brush)
    • Fix+ (2 squirts once all makeup was done)

    Eyes

    • Painterly paint pot as base (242 brush dupe from Sephora)
    • Mancatcher e/s all over lid, up to brow bone (139 brush)
    • Steamy e/s in outer V, and as liner both top and bottom (139 brush, and Mary Kay slanted e/s brush for lining)
    • Crystal Avalanche e/s as a highlight (272 brush)
    • Benefit Eye Bright in inner corners and waterline
    • Brow Set in clear
    • Make Up For Ever Smokey Lash mascara top and bottom

    Lips

    • C-Thru lipglass

    I took pictures before I did concealer on this massive mountain of a pimple on my forehead and before the Eye Bright, and then after I did it. So I used the later pictures, except for the last one I’m going to post, that was done before those two items.

    and for the one without concealer or Eye Bright

    Obviously, the concealer helped! :) Unfortunately, it is a discontinued product, but I see mine lasting forever since I haven’t even sharpened it yet, and I’ve had it for 1.5 years. It’s just nice that it’s in pencil form, so I can “draw” it on, then blend it in with the 194 brush. The Eye Bright also perked up my eyes a bit, so I am going to try to use that product more often.

    My hair left a lot to be desired today, sorry about that, haha.
