Chanel Les Quatre eye shadow Sublimes: Marine, Beige Rose, Granite, Clear Blue
I rarely use this set, but I should use it more often. I originally bought it because I didn’t have anything in this color family. All my blues were more of a normal blue.

This set leans toward teal. If you make an X, the upper right and lower left are both light shades, though I’ve never worn them alone, say, for day. Thinking about it, I wonder why, and want to do it sometime soon.

The opposite line, are two darks, very dark and extremely dark. One looks black-blue; the other looks black-black-blue. They would be very dramatic if used for evening — or even to achieve a goth look.

You can see where I laid the lines. I used the lighter of the two dark blues to dryline the bottom. The darkest to dryline the top.

Arbonne mascara, 2 step. La Prairie brow pencil. Dior skinflash concealer with a touch of Arbonne in the outer corners.

Chanel foundation; my sparkly powder mix, followed by BE mineral veil sort of like a bronzer.

Highlight: Benefit Georgia
Blush: YSL # 19, also used as a bronzer

Lips: NYX Aphrodite + rimmed with Beauté Paramour (and a touch in the center.)

What do you think?

To buy Arbonne from Bookgirl, if you don’t have a representative, go here.

I want to know what happens to lost posts in the scheme of things. I wrote this up recently and it is now in Internet Never Neverland. Here’s hoping this one is as good, if not better.

….

I bet you thought I’d tell you how to smoosh two colors together in a little pot and use a lip brush. Well, you could do that, for sure, and it would work, if you came up with a combo you really liked, but this is easier and gives you a lot more color options.

….

If I am going to combine colors, I generally start with one color on my top lip and one color on my bottom lip. Sometimes the sum of two lipsticks is better than its parts, at least for a particular day.

Here’s what I did yesterday to show you:

Top Lip:
AL Gothic Lolita Wallflower This is a gorgeous color on its own, but not one I would have chosen. It is truly a perfect blend of pink and peach. And I can wear it well. I’m getting a full lippie. Kristin always includes samples with every order, and this color was one of my free samples. It is a perfect mix of peach and pink.

I chose it for this tutorial because you can see how you can add more cool tones to it.

Bottom Lip
NYX Purple Rain lip gloss
As you can see, this is quite purple.

Then I smoosh my lips together until the colors are blended. You can see how each color softens the other. I have also changed the consistency of the lippies: the gloss is more lipsticky, and the lipstick is more glossy. The color now is more plummy.

What I like about this is that both lipsticks stay fresh and clean. If I want to use them alone or in combination with other colors, I can. And I know I’m starting out with a particular color, not one that has layers of other colors over or in it.

This same technique works when using sample ziplocks. I am careful not to mix colors within the bags. I often use a little pointed plastic wand to grab some color and smooth it over my lips. It transfers almost completely off the wand, unlike a lipstick brush that you might have to wipe off.

Here are some other quick ways to use this technique:
Balancing your lips
This same technique can be used if you are trying to balance your lips. Put the lighter color on the smaller lip. Smoosh carefully and that lip will still be a tad lighter. Whatever is lighter comes forward and looks brighter or larger.

Highlighting the center
Apply the light color fully to one lip and the center of the other lip. Put the second color on the outsides of the second lip. Smoosh, and your center is highlighted.

You can do this more strongly by lining your lips and filling in or going over the outside edges. You can do this with a navy eye pencil, believe it or not, just be careful to blend well and choose a navy that is the right shade for your skin and lip tone. I use a medium navy; dark navy is a little difficult to blend. (I did not use it in this picture.)

I wanted to try some of the new Lancome products, so I asked a SA to do a makeover on me.

She used the new Lancome minerals in the lightest shade, Natural Ivory 10. She tried the next deepest on one side (she says they get lighter on the face) but she felt it looked too dark, so she used the 10 on the other side. I told her to just put some 10 on the other side, so one side is a bit more made up than the other. I’d prefer it a bit sheerer.

The SA said the foundation doesn’t look good on everyone, but she loved it on me, that it gave me a glow.

Since I don’t normally wear mineral foundation, I think I’d like to go in to see if I can apply it correctly before I buy it. The brush is super scrumptuous! It feels like velvet, just like their claims. I am going to have to get this, at least.

*The Lancôme innovation: skin-renewing White Sapphire Complex* helps fight visible signs of aging. Skin looks brighter, revived and feels softer for hours.
* Experience the velvety brush for a blissful, effortless, controlled application.
*11 luxurious, long-wearing natural shades – free of talc, oil and fragrance
*Aloe, Vitamin E, Mica, Alumina, Bismuth Oxychloride

Blush: I’ll have to ask her. She started off thinking browner, but was glad she chose this. [Update: Sheer Amarose]
Lipstick: Groupie, a gorgeous color. I wanted her to do it by itself, with no pencil. After cataloguing my pencils, I’m simply not going to get another one. (Maybe, LOL!) Lippies will have to stand on their own.

Eyes:
Eyeshadows were a duo, I think Emerald, Green on one side, a sort of sandy taupe on the other. She started thinking apricot and pink, but wasn’t sure. I said try the green — you’re sure??!! Yes, I knew I could wear the green. Loved this color.

After applying a base, she applied the taupy shade up to my brows, then the green. She used a green pencil on the lower lid, then topped it with more of the green shadow.

Mascara: Extreme Black — I don’t own this one, but I’m going to. Talk about lash power! I don’t know how I missed this mascara.

BookGirl said
She loved the lippie; prefers the way I do my eyes.

My take
Very pretty minerals, if they work for you, color and all. Loved, loved, loved the brush!! Loved the lippie and the eyeshadows.

How about you?
Do you own these shadow or lip colors? Do you wear the foundation? How do you like it on me?

Wow! this was fun! Thanks to Elena for giving me the idea yesterday.

Do you want a little drama and edge in your life?
Try a little black lippie, especially since they are moving out of Goth and into mainstream, albeit high fashion.
Yves St. Laurent has a black gloss.
Chanel has black lippies in different color hues, not like their famous Vamp lippie, a burgundy-black. These would be black-whatever-color-tone-you-pick of the three.
NYX has a black gloss.
Fyrinnae has Monochrome, a matte black lip lustre.

Is it still Goth, if mainstream isn’t far behind?

Could I make my own? Yes!
I figured I could come up with my own, yes!

I also wanted to try it with one of Aromaleigh’s wonderful black shadows. But there was no time. Maybe tomorrow.

Step 1:
Base: Avon Beyond Color Lip Plumping Conditioner
This would allow the pencil to go on without pulling. And also, hopefully, not stain my lips.
Choosing a black eye pencil.
I used Revlon Wet Dry Blackest Black
I wondered about my really black Shiseido and my not-quite-as-black Shiseido, but for this, I chose Revlon.

What a gorgeous shimmery black! But I didn’t have my eyes on yet, and it was morning, and I knew I wanted to tame it down.

For real drama
This would be a beautiful shade colored on both lips, with a touch of gloss up the center.

The bottom lippie is Milani Lip Mixer Gloss 704. I wanted to bring it into a burgundy look. Next time I might try lipstick instead of gloss.

My youngest 2 girls were looking at me wondering what the heck!

Step 2:
Smoosh the lips together.
It was really quite black, and the pencil shimmered through it.

My girls thought it was way too dark for me. But I wasn’t finished with the rest of my makeup. If you could see the full shots here, you would certainly agree with them. But I’m not sharing them!

Step 3: Add gloss up the middle of the lip to highlight
Lancome Starlight White with silver glitter
Milani Glitzy Glow Girl to pink it up some

Finished FOTD I’ll post more FOTD shortly.
Looking good.

Karin

I felt like bright turquoise today, and that made me think immediately of the colors that Aromaleigh has.

Eyes: all Aromaleigh, except where noted:
Crease: caribe, pure hue
Outer corners: aqua nightmare, gothic lolita
Inner corners: endless sea, rocks! sonic eyes
Drylined upper and lower: moonagedaydream, rocks! sonic eyes
Tight Lined upper and wet lined lower: Jordana Sterling Blue
Brows: Clinique soft blonde pencil
Mascara: Guerlain Le2 (double sided with small brush for lower lashes)

Foundation: Lancome minerals — still trying to figure out how — and how much — to use; see how funky my nose looks here? I saw it in sunlight and took care of it. Generally I leave everything off my nose for this reason.
Powder: Lancome minerals
Highlight: AL magnolia blossom
Blush: AL english rose (a powder, not a blush, that didn’t show up, so used it across my face, lightly)
Blush: Meow Masterpiece Water Lilies

Lips:
NYX Lips Hebe — this one doesn’t migrate. It’s got a lovely sheen to it, doesn’t feel slippery — and it doesn’t move into liplines around the mouth.

Time for a FOTD again…it’s been a while since I’ve posted a new one.

Eyes: I wanted to go back to some AL old standbys, colors that I love, as well us use a new sample I received.
Outer corner: Lilypad satin petals frost
Crease and lower lash dry lined: Jade pure eyes frost — looks deep, but goes on brighter
Lined: Black powder on top
Over lined top and bottom: Delilah bete noire glitter — these glitters look wonderful; I’ll be trying out more over the next couple of days.
Mascara: BE Buxom

Face:
comparing two shades and formulas of foundation, applied over Hourglass Veil primer, each side of my face, all else is the same [Olay cream on right; Revlon liquid on left]; Chanel cream blush under my sparkly powder mix; Arbonne Promise as blush; Mary Kay highlighter up the center of my face.

Lippie AL Sweet Tart Gothic Lolita Collection over Down Under Healing lipbalm
This is a beautiful neutral shimmery pink.

Warm mauve pearl from Summer 2009 Natural mineral lip products have an average lifespan of 6-9 months due to the nourishing base oils and butters used in their formulation.

What do you think?
It’s no secret I love AL colors. So far my AL lippies have held up well, all but one color which I replaced, lasting over the time frame AL lists for their lippies.

I was going for the look of the new Shiseido ad or the cover of Allure with Taylor Swift on it. Both feature bright red lips. For the sense of vibrancy, it reminded me of Anja’s look in a Theme Week at Aromaleigh.

Shiseido’s ad is likely photo shopped to get such white skin. What a gorgeous picture! What a gorgeous woman!

You can see the Allure cover, here.

I used the lightest shade of makeup I have, which is too light for me, then used white liquid highlighter over much of it to get it even lighter.

It’s too red and too bright for day unless it were December, but we are going to a party tonight, and I think the look will translate well.

Sorry for the smudge here on the eye. I took care of it after the pictures.

Eyes: AL Balsam in crease
Pencil lined: Maybelline navy blue on top; MAC Light as Air, bright blue on lower with Sephora Flashy Silver white in the waterline
Dry Lined: AL Swank top and lower
Then AL Spaceoddity, then AL disintegration rocks! glam glitter to bring it more turquoise like the Shiseido ad
Brows: La Prairie pencil

Primer: AL
Foundation: Tova cream Lightest of lightest duo
Highlight: Clinique Zero Base A white, very shimmery liquid. I’d prefer it to be half as shimmery.
Powder: my sparkly mix
Lips: Shiseido 104

What do you think?

NYX Glitter Pallet is available in a number of colors online from Cherry Culture or in store at Ulta. This is from the Paradise pallet.

I got my hair cut today, and it surely needed it! Everywhere I went, someone mentioned how well they liked my eye makeup. The pink glitter is very becoming.

Eyes:
Base: Dior pink toned cream shadow
Crease: NYX Glitter Pallet Pink — bright bubble gum color with multi light pastel glitter
Outer Corner: NYX GP Dark Black with Multi Glitter
Lined top in waterline: Mary Kay black eye pencil
Lined bottom in waterline with MAC graphblack, just outside with earthline
Drylined bottom outside MAC: Ulta Jade mineral powder looks green, pulls gold from the glitter
Mascara:
Top: Lancome Cils primer, Oscillation over it;
Bottom: Definicils
Blush: MAC Dollymix
Brows: Merle Norman powder

Highlight: my own shimmer powder mix, no time for anything else, topped with a bit on BE on my nose

Lips:
Revlon Wine with everything cream gloss
This is a very pretty color. I thought I might want to add silver glitter, but it has a gleam all its own. This is the formula I liked so well.

Again, I used DuWop Reverse Liner just to make sure it wouldn’t migrate, but I don’t know that I needed to. It’s still going strong a couple of hours later.

Verdict:
I raced through trying this product for the first time in order to be on time for my hair cut. You can see how it went on uneven. The pallet has great colors and I will definitely try it again. It comes with 1 applicator with sponges on each end and 1 applicator that has a sponge on one end and a brush on the other. I don’t see how you could use the brush. The product is suspended in a heavy gel. It’s not particularly waxy, but it means the glitter stays put.

I used my finger to apply it because nothing else worked.

One reviewer talked about using this as liner and having to go over it several times to get it even, but that it lasted all night. I have other glitter liners that are a lot easier to use. I don’t know that I would try this as liner. Maybe! She talked about using it on her face, arms, decolletage, etc.

I need to play with it some more, but meantime I look good enough to race around town anyway!

What do you think?

I wanted to do the same colors as Thursday, but minus Ladystardust, which brought it more into a rosy look than a lavender. I had only used ladystardust on Thursday, because I couldn’t put my hands on Imperial, which I found and added on top of ladystardust. This look, Friday, is more straight lavender, which I love. I still used Aqua Nightmare to dryline the lower lid.

All other colors are the same, except I used
Lips: BE Bare Beach, rimmed with Allure
Blush: BE Vintage Peach
Highlight: AL Whisper up the center of my face.
AL drama queen violet to line top lid.

Again, I was inspired by Nina’s look.

I decided to compare pictures to answer Phyrra’s question.

Now I don’t remember what shadow base I used.* I’ll check the name of what I think it was and add it later. But afterwards I used some of my sparkly nude mix. I use this mix because I am so fair that deeper colors will grab on me if I don’t lay down a dry foundation. (I also use eye cream on my lids.) (If your lids are oily, you will have to find other products — then let me know what works. I think using a second mix as I do would work.) [* I think I might have used Trish McAvoy. The trouble with this one is that I never know how much to use, and then I don't pay attention necessarily to how much drift/slide I get over the day to know whether to reach for it again or not.]

All colors posted at my FOTD which is coming up shortly.

Taken early this morning:
Lippie: Too Faced Diamond Gloss Fire, straight up, nothing added

At 5:30 added this lippie
Lippie: NYX Lips Iced Lavender — pretty color, almost brown with some lavender — the full face picture looked TOO MUCH — but I was swatching the color from my amazing NYX haul.

Taken about 8:30 after eating, etc. not standing in the same place as this morning:

You can see there was a slight drift on my lids, not enough to worry about. When it is more, sometimes my eyelids get irritated — I wonder then if it is the base or if it is the glitter (is it really smooth or is it cutting?) or if it is the particular color range.

Over all, my eyes have looked perfect today, not drifted, and the crease is identical to this morning. So I think part of the difference in looks in this photo is where I was standing and how the light grabbed from the camera.

I’ve found Nude Frost (in a pot) works best for me for Fyrinnae, Meow and AL though I use others on occasion. I’ve also had drift with it, and serious irritation, redness of skin, but it appears not to be the Nude Frost. When that happens, I go back to my tried and true shadows for a day or so, until it clears up.

What base do you use?

I had a long, full day today. These pictures were taken about 10 mins ago, so everything held up really well. I’d say I didn’t do anything but add a lippie, but I did try some MAC colors.

Eyes are the same as yesterday. Meow colors. Mascara is Lancome Oscillation. Used Sephora green pencil to line.

I started this morning with MAC Hello Kitty Popster tinted lip conditioner, rimmed with Beauté Paramour, but I didn’t get a picture. It was really pretty together. I might do it again starting out tomorrow so you can see it.

Primer
Foundation: Lancome minerals + Lancome mineral translucent powder + my sparkly mix
Blush: Beauté liqui-gel Harlot
Later: MAC mineralize blush Moon River
Concealer: Dior skinflash

Tonight I changed the lippie to Benefit frenched. It’s a very pretty red, bluer than the picture looks. Next time I’d do the lipstick on one lip and lipgloss on the other and smoosh it. Even though it’s almost shocking, it would be great with a red shirt.

What did you wear today?

This is a little more of a made up look than I’ve been wearing lately, but it is really the same amount of product. I could tweak it with a little glitter on my lips, but wanted to show it as-is.

I wanted to try a few E.L.F. products because they are so inexpensive.

Mineral Shadows
The mineral shadows come in the same jar as BE and are about the same size. They compare favorably with BE. They are not as sparkly as AL or Meow, at least the colors I chose. The minerals were the most expensive of any of the products I ordered — $3 each for full size.

Lip liner pencils
The pencils are called Feather-Proof Moisturizing Lip Liner. It has not migrated. For $1, it is worth trying. They have a pretty good mix of colors, most of them are fairly neutral with nuances of color. Spice is not at all orange, but more of a true neutral. I like it, even though it wasn’t what I ordered.

Waterproof pen liner:
This worked well yesterday. The felt tip is sharper (in feel) and dryer than the Mary Kay one that I loved that is discontinued. I forgot to try the black today. I used Midnight yesterday and it did well. Again, $1.

Eyes: All dry except where noted
Base: Trish McEvoy, then my beige sparkly mix
Crease: E.L.F. Caffeinated mineral
Outer corners: E.L.F. Glamorous mineral
Inner Corner: Meow because photo made it look matte, which it doesn’t in RL — don’t know why the camera does this — and of course, in RL you don’t go around with one eye closed; it is a flash of color when you blink.

Drylined E.L.F. Royal mineral, top and lower outside pencil line, then wetlined on top, very pretty wetlined
Pencil lined, top and bottom (no MAC, LOL) E.L.F. Plum brightening eye liner
Mascara: top BE Buxom; lower Lancome Definicils
Brows: Victoria Jackson pencil

Face:
Comparing Lancome foundation on one side and Chanel on the other
Revlon Primer
E.L.F. Persimmon Shimmering Facial Whip glimmer up middle of face (this would be good to give your face color in winter or whenever you needed a pick-me-up, placing it differently on your face)
E.L.F. Spice Lined lips and filled in (they sent me this by mistake, not the one I ordered, but I thought I’d try it anyway)
E.L.F. Blossom Hypershine Lip Gloss
E.L.F. Bitter Went over lip line and inside with
E.L.F. Pink Lemonade All Over Color Stick (such a cute little size, almost a sample)

And my glimmer powder mix.

Shimmering Facial Whip: this is a nice product and comes in several shades. The browner ones would be good for getting a tanned look without being in the sun. I might try one of those next. This has an Allure Choice Award.

Multipurpose, on-the-go whipped colorant is vitamin B, C and E packed to instantly brighten and sooth skin with no greasy after-feel.

Squeeze a pearl-sized [more like a dot] amount onto finger and blend into cheeks, eyes, or lips.

Hypershine Gloss
This was not as visible as some glosses I own. It has some taste, but it was not at all objectionable. I punched it up with more lip liner. I intentionally chose a neutral, as well as to the color range I don’t usually buy. If you can’t do that for $1, when can you?

Hyper, glass-like shine infused with micro-mirror technology to reflect light. Smooths lips on contact with a conditioning shine that lasts for hours. Create that natural lip stain of color that’s sheer, subtle and beautiful!

Wet Gloss Lash & Brow Clear Mascara
Book Girl has gorgeous thick lashes that almost brush her sunglasses. Any colored mascara looks mascara-y. I thought this might give her some definition, but still look natural. She tried it yesterday, and it worked well.

Achieve glossy, shiny, healthy-looking lashes and brows with the infused long wearing conditioning agents in our wet gloss lash & brow mascara. Looking pulled together has never been easier!

Today she is using the AL clear mascara. She says this went on with more product on the first application. Both feel equally light.

All over color stick This would be good for airplane travel.
This worked well. It’s quite a darling little size. I wouldn’t mind an array of colors. I would think this would work better for dry skin than for oily.

Duo Eye Shadow Cream
This is the only product I bought that I haven’t tried yet. I thought I might try it as a dark base under minerals.

My opinion, you can’t go wrong for the price.

The actual packaging, not of the product, but of the containers is not as rich as NYX. NYX has more of the look of MAC.

These are not as high-glam or as Indie in appearance when on as AL or Meow, but some items, like the lip pencils, are more than favorable for drugstore lines, especially for price.

I think my girls would enjoy having some of this. It would make good stocking stuffers. Or even birthday favors.

Eyes:
Base: Beauticontrol Pink
Revlon Lilac Shimmer Perle (has sparks)
This will be my alternate to Queen Phyllis (which is off white.)
Milani #06 Royalty, also wetlined lower (remember the spark on this is only on the top — too bad — so now there is no spark on mine)
Lined top and lower: Shiseido Soft Black liquid
Over lined: Avon blue sparkle gel

Imagine a line down the center of my face.
I used the same primer, cream blush and my sparkly powder mix on both sides of my face. I used Revlon Age Defying Spa Face Illuminator in Light Pink 020 up the center of my face. The only difference is the foundation.

My Left side Cover Girl 210 Simply Ageless cream foundation — made to camouflage effects of aging.
My Right side Maybelline Matte Mousse #2

Until you compare it when applying it, the Matte really doesn’t look particularly matte. But in comparison the CG is slightly illuminating. CG would be the one that would lift lines by illumination.

The difference is very subtle, but the CG definitely is more illuminating.

The cream feels quite creamy, but not oily. The mousse feels like it glides on, so it likely has some kind of ‘cone in it. I like them both. If I were in the least bit worried about a T-zone in summer, I’d use the mousse. As it is, I can wear either of them year round. The colors I used are pretty nearly identical.

CG has an interesting way to determine what color you use. I bought mine at CVS, which didn’t have it, but at Target they had a chart. You place your hand under it, and when your skin disappears into the sheer chart, that is the color for you. Based on that, I bought 210, which is perfect for me.

Comparing

Lips: AL Pout + Karma + Silver Sparkles up the center

Showing the sparkle of the shadow:

Have you tried these two foundations?
What do you think? I like them both.
