    Revisit…

    Friday, April 23rd, 2010

    I wanted to do something with color for work (like I’ve said over and over… all neutrals every day gets me a bit down) so I decided to re-try an old look. I think it came out a lot better, but then again, all my looks from a year ago looked downright scary! I hadn’t started using products in my crease, and I’m not sure I even attempted to blend. Oh what a difference a year can make!!! :D

    It was pretty, but didn’t have great staying power like normal MAC shadows do. But I was happy to finally use these shadows, I’ve had them sitting around since last fall!

    Swatch of the Day: MAC Paint Pots

    Sunday, March 7th, 2010

    Swatched my MAC Paint Pots today!

    What is a Paint Pot?

    A highly pigmented eye colour that goes on creamy but dries to an intense, vibrant finish. Long-wearing, colourfast. Creates seamless coverage without weight or caking. Blends smoothly over the lids. Cream-based, can be mixed with M·A·C shadows and liners.

    Hmm, trying to use more pinks lately :) One of my more neglected palettes indeed. Today was a fairly calm/simple look…

    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. :)

    1 Minute Eyes

    Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

    Today I was in a rush, and didn’t have time to go through my usual makeup routine of multi eyeshadows, foundation, etc. So here’s my “1 Minute Eyes” look I came up with!

    Eyes

  • MAC Fresco Rose Paint Pot
  • MAC Vex Eyeshadow
  • Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero
  • Make Up For Ever Lash Fibers
  • Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash Mascara
  • 0126closeup

    Didn’t photograph too well, but it’s a simple and pretty pink-ish look. Just a bit of color to spice up an otherwise boring look! I was thinking how easy it’d be to take something like Contrast, and darken up the outer V, and transform the look, too.
