This was my idea from yesterday, to do orange and red. As I went along, I preferred orange and purple, but when I was finished, I was happy.

Eyes: after my usual base
Inner lids: AL spread your wings les papillons
Outer lids and drylined under eye: AL crimson mimicry les papillons
Up center of lid: AL unicorn (which pulls orchid) to mask the abruptness
Drylined: AL reverberation Rocks! glam glitter (turquoise)
Lined upper and lower: Black Cherry gel, smudging the look, rather than hard edged
Lashes: Witches charm lower lashes on upper (black with silver glitter tips) — these are not as long as the upper and a little less exotic. Very pretty for evening with the glitter.
Taken from a downward angle:

Blush and highlight: Arbonne

Lips:
Upper lip: Perfect Azalea Beauticontrol lipstick, soft, bright red
Lower lip: 05 NYX Sparkle round gloss
Smooshed
Lower lip: Urge Beaute gloss, then smooshed again

I hope you are having a wonderful day!

I started out with the idea of wearing orange and purple shadows, then considering the shirt I’m wearing, I really wanted to do orange and red, so I compromised with red as the bottom liner. Maybe tomorrow I will do orange and red. It’s still the season for those colors on trees! Normally, in my wildest dreams, I wouldn’t have ever tried an orange on my eyes, but Aromaleigh colors are just fab, so I knew they would be spectacular, if I’d just get up the nerve. I figured I’d choose my lashes later. I’d pick the red tinsel ones, but one lash has mysteriously gone to sock heaven. Hopefully it will turn up!

Eyes, after my usual base
Inner Lids: AL spread your wings les papillons
Outer lids: AL ephemeral violet les papillons
Lower drylined: AL crimson mimicry les papillons
As predicted, this is very pretty:
Spread your Wings: The gentle earthy orange of the Monarch Butterfly, but rich with metallic splendor, vivid color and sparks of pure silver.
I’d worn both of these colors before and know I love them. Crimson is beautiful as a lower liner, and gives just the needed pizazz, but I don’t think you can see it very well in the pictures:
Ephemeral Violet: A cool frosted metallic purple with strong finish and sparks of copper flash.
Crimson Mimicry: Rich frosted metallic smooth true red with sparks of coral, red and gold shining in the sunlight.
Lashes: Witches Charm Sorceress — these are the top lashes of the set and very spiky. They remind me of the crown on the statue of liberty! This is my first time wearing them, and I like them a lot. I wasn’t sure if they would look like I was missing some lashes, or if they would be too wild for everyday wearing.
There also are bottom lashes, which I might wear for top lashes. On one upper lash, there is some glue overspill from manufacturing. I didn’t try to remove it. Never had that happen before, so I will definitely check before I buy.

Lips: Tony&Tina Cosmic Deva (wine with wine and multi shimmers)(very smooth on) + WetnWild (deep red with bright red shimmers) (Halloween one year — this is gritty feeling on)


I hope you are having a good day!

These are pretty colors! I think if you look at all the pictures you can see how pretty the glitter is on the lashes.
Eyes
Over my usual base product:
Inner lids: AL glowing luna les papillons
Outer lids and dry lined lower: AL vigil of change les papillons
Glowing Luna: A pigmented warm green yellow… or yellowish warm green? You choose. Sparks of copper and pink add an ethereal dimension.
Vigil of Change: Intense deep cool purple with smokey metallic undertones and golden highlights with pink sparkles.
Review
Lined lower: 01 Milani crystal eye limited edition — this is sparkly with gold flecks on your lid without much color even if it looks as if there were, but on my lid without any other product the glitter felt scratchy — I like it better as liner, used more thickly so the color shows. The glitter in the package looks sparked with blue and green. I expected silver sparks from looking at it in the store. I’m not unhappy I bought it, but I think the ads are photoshopped to show more spark. I will use it for liner. I used it over the top of shadow yesterday (another way they recommend it) and it deepened the shadow a bit, but didn’t give much spark.
Edited: I returned the one I bought. It looked purple in the container but had basically no color, and while it says it is buildable, it would have to be too thick to show. Plus the glitter is sharp, at least on my eye. After it had been on a while I didn’t feel it, but at first I did. I much prefer the rocks! collection from Aromaleigh. The second time I used it to line with, the line was too thick.
Lashes: Top lashes from Witches Charm Enchantress set (black with silver glitter tips) — These are so pretty and elegant! This is the first time I’ve worn them. The bottom lashes are similar to the ones with the red tinsel lashes. I trimmed almost 3/8″ from the width at the outer end of the lashes.

Blush and highlighter: Arbonne

Lips:
MAC Flashmode + Money Honey, one on each lip, smooshed


I hope you are having a great day! (All products were purchased by me; they were not given to me to review.)

Well, after yesterday’s horrible lashes, these are real beauties! I didn’t trim these at all, but I think I could take some off the width.
I do not know why they stick so ridiculously to the packaging — I actually ripped a 6/16 section out of the center of one of the lashes getting it off the packaging. I attached the lashes as usual, including the bare strip, then glued in the section I ripped out. It could be that it was because they had sat in the packaging so long. Cripe!
Pictures were taken 6-7 hours after initial makeup.

Inner lid: AL Unicorn l’orchidee
Outer lids: AL Tangle root l’orchidee
Lashes: Ardel Romantic — have double staggered layer of crystals
Lined lower: Moss (green) Arbonne pencil
Tangleroot: Earthy lush green with cool dimensional shimmer sparkles.
Unicorn: Palest yellow luster that phases to a cool blue highlight.
I wanted to choose colors I might not usually wear (the yellow). I can wear greens like this, but I expected it to be more flat avocado (and therefore less wearable for me.) Together these are quite lush. Unicorn looks like a soft orchid on, and not yellow at all. And the green is almost, not quite a cool green, not a yellow green. Don’t be fooled by the color in the ziplock!

Blush and highlight: Arbonne

Lips: Usually I wear Caspian and the gloss, but I wanted it pinker today
Lower lip pencil: Too Faced Caspian
Upper lip pencil: MAC Magenta
Smooshed
Shell Too Faced lip gloss

Base: Nude Frost + BE Queen Phyllis
Alternated on lids again (but it doesn’t show up): AL Showy & Chatterbox l’orchidee
Drylined, then wetlined upper and lower: AL Cascade l’orchidee — wow this is a gorgeous color, very coppery
Lashes: Witches Charm Temptress Tentatrice Black with Red Glitter tipped Lashes — these are the lower lashes from yesterday, used on the top — I wish the photo showed how pretty they are — I would love these in Black with black glitter — You can see a bit of the glitter in each photo, but not the full effect. It’s really pretty.

Chatterbox: Rich, multi-dimensional brownish mauve smoke with frosted shimmer
Showy: Lovely cool pink frost with blue iridescent sparkles
Blush and Highlight: Arbonne

Lips: AL Pout — I’m a little disappointed with this as it appears to be going stale. I hope all the colors do not do that, as I tend to never use up a tube.

I hope you are having a great day!

Wow! I really had fun with this one! Sometimes serendipity really comes through for you. Still working through all the samples I purchased. It’s fun to have enough that I just put the colors on the counter and pick 2 or 3 I haven’t used yet that I think will go together. Serenade pulls more blue/violet on me than teal (how it looks in the ziplock) , at least when used with Coppelia.
How to place the lid colors
First, I couldn’t decide which color to place on my inner and outer lids. So, I thought, why not do both? I figured it might be fun, and today wouldn’t matter. Surprisingly enough, it is not weird, it is beautiful. I didn’t really like the first eye, but when I did the second, it was just super. I have never done this before, but I might do it really often!
Eyes:
Base: Nude Frost + BE Queen Phyllis
Alternating inner and outer lids: AL serenade + AL coppelia en pointe
Drylined lower: AL serenade
Serenade: A color inspired by my favorite ballet. Beautiful smooth teal plush matte base with a lush violet iridescent highlight. (Sheen)
Coppelia: A lovely berried plum plush matte base with a dimensional smooth violet highlight. (Sheen)
Mascara: Sapphire Cover Girl
Lashes: Witches Charm Temptress Tentatrice Black with Red tinsel! I bought these one Halloween, might be two years ago from Walgreens or CVS. They have quite an array offered online still, and they aren’t terribly expensive. These came with top and bottom lashes. update: I used them as upper lashes the next day.


No blush, only Chanel stick rouge under my sparkly mix of powder, over one of my usual primers (Smashbox purple today) and foundations.

Lips: MAC Love Alert + Arbonne Delicious, both glosses, one on each lip, smooshed



What do you think?

I’ve posted my tutorial about the false lashes.
To show the glitter line of the lashes:


Eyes:
Base: Nude Frost + BE Queen Phyllis
Aromaleigh shadows
Center of lid: Clara en pointe
Outer corner and crease: Pique en pointe
Inner corner and drylined lower: Arabesque en pointe
Interesting how all the different shimmers work together, and you really can’t tell by looking in the ziplocks.
Arabesque: A refined bluish green with highlight shimmers of green and gold. Multi-facted and rich frost. (Frost)
Piqué: A lovely mauved purply brown with light-changing lustre, travels from purply-blue to blue-green. (Sheen)
Clara: Festive warm purple with a twist… an unexpected smokey base and a sweet blue and pink traveling iridescent highlight. (Frost)
Mascara: Stiletto Black
Lashes: Ardel Glamourous Lashes – black with glitter along skin edge
I wanted to try something really different, not just plain lashes as I used to wear. Why not!
Upper Inner Lid lined to match into lashes: White glitter gel — I might put some on the lower later.
Upper Inner Lid beneath the glitter and lower tightlined: MAC graphblack — doing this beneath the glitter made the line of the lashes blend into my own eye.
Lower Tightlined: MAC Navy Stain pencil

Lips Borghese Chilled Wine
This is a pretty color in RL, more luminescent than the picture shows. I prefer more of a gloss look. I should have used 1/2 gloss, but was going for more of the lash thang. It matches the shadow color though!
