For actual Valentine’s Day I did a purple look I often fall back on… Beautiful Iris, Satellite Dreams, Fertile, and Shroom. Didn’t take any pictures.

Swatch of the Day: My MAC Pink Eyeshadows
Monday, November 30th, 2009
This time around I’m swatching the eyeshadows in my “Pink” MAC palette! These are the ones that I’ve decided are “full” pinks. I have a “Pink-ish Purples” palette that I put other ones in that, to me, are not a full pink or a full purple color. Does that make sense? Probably not, but most people have unique ways of organizing their palettes to their personal tastes.
MAC Passionate Eyeshadow
Description: Real mid-tone red (Matte)
MAC Sushi Flower Eyeshadow
Description: Pinky-coral with pink shimmer (Satin)
MAC Budding Beauty Eyeshadow
Description: Bright fuchsia (Frost, LE: Dejarose)
MAC Sunset B Eyeshadow
Description: Frost clean mid-tone pink (Starflash, LE: Starflash)
MAC Swish Eyeshadow
Description: Bright pink with icy shimmer (Frost)
MAC Pink Freeze Eyeshadow
Description: Bright pink with icy pearl (Frost)
MAC Sweet Lust Eyeshadow
Description: Pinky-rose (Lustre)
MAC Slip Pink Eyeshadow
Description: Sunny coral pink with pearlized pigments (Velvet, LE: Technacolour, Lingerie)
MAC Yogurt Eyeshadow
Description: Soft pale pink (Matte)
Swatching procedure: My skin tone is roughly a MAC NW20 (maybe NW15 since any tan is fading). Swatches are done over MAC Painterly paint pot to provide a base, therefore results may appear different on bare skin.
Photos are taken in my bathroom of the shadows themselves under “Natural Light” bubs which mimic natural daylight. Swatch pictures were taken by a window with natural sunlight.
Sunny eyes for a sunny day
Monday, October 19th, 2009Finally the sun was out for the first time in who knows how many days, so I went for something bright. This is off of my “list of must do looks” that I have compiled. I think I really really like it! Yay!
Face
- MAC Mineralize loose foundation in Medium
- MAC Beauty Powder in Tahitian Sand
- MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Redhead
Foundation applied with 109 brush, then Tahitian Sand to the cheeks with a 168, topped off with the pinker side of the Redhead MSF with a 168.
Eyes
- MAC Painterly paint pot
- MAC Rated “R” e/s
- MAC Firespot e/s
- MAC Passionate e/s
- MAC Paradisco e/s
- MAC Shroom e/s
- MAC Pearlglide Liner in Black Russian
- MAC Clear Brow Finish
- Make Up For Ever Lash Fibers
- Make Up For Ever Smokey Lash mascara
Painterly paint pot applied as base with a flat e/s brush. Rated “R” applied to inner corners with a 219 brush. Firespot packed on over lid with 239 brush. Passionate buffed into outer V and crease with 217 brush, blended with Firespot. Paradisco used to blend out Passionate above crease, with a 272 brush. Shroom applied as a highlight with a small shader brush. Using the 219 brush, I used Rated “R” to liner under lower lashes on the inner half, and then Firespot on the outer half. Black Russian liner then applied to waterline.
Lips
- MAC Valentine’s lipgelee
Some thoughts…. Passionate is terrible to work with. I dunno, I just don’t like the texture of it in the pan. Seems like it’s hard to pick up on a brush. But… when blended into something like today’s look, it’s really pretty.
I got a new MUFE mascara. Mine was about 7 months old and drying out so I sprung for a new one. At $22 a pop I try to avoid buying it too often, LOL!
