Change of pace today! Back to reds, but new ones I’ve never used before. We’ll see if I get any drift/slide today. Sometimes red bothers my lids, esp when it slides.
Sometimes I wonder whether it would be easier to have no choices. It takes me longer to think about what I’d like to do than actually doing it. But last night I thought: Gothic Lolita shadows! Fyrinnae lips! so that made it easier today.
Eyes: All AL, except where noted
Base: Nude Frost, no sparkly mix after
Crease: Strawberry Despair, GL — wow! this is really pretty — I think I originally bought it because it looked so great on Tanya in a theme week at AL, but I’m not sure I ever wore it before — AL describes it
Strawberry Despair: Muted strawberry red pearl with copper sparks. Despair was never so yummy!
Outer Corners and lower drylined: Burnt Roses , GL — one of my all time fave colors, just a super color
Burnt Roses : Rich chocolatey cherry frost with tiny deep green sparks. Just plain luscious.
Inner Corners:Persephone, Luster — first time I wore this too, very gorgeous color!
Persephone: Lush bordeaux with a cocoa lowlight and rose highlight.
Brows: Chanel pencil
Mascara: Guerlain, top; Tarte, lower
Concealer: Dior skinflash and around inner corners of eyes
I couldn’t figure out what to use for liner or if I should stop where I was, then I remembered I had Black Cherry gel liner. It helps to have the right brush. Since I tried it last, I bought a small slanted eyeliner brush at Ulta. There’s no identifier on it to tell you which one. I intentionally tried to smudge it out the way a pencil looks vs. having a hard edged line. Smudging just looks better on me at this stage of life. Anyway, it was perfect, and I loved it, and I might try to use my gel liners more now that I actually like the look of one of them. I did it very lightly along the waterline and tight lined both the top and lower, smudging it.
Sunscreen: Neutragena, not the La Prairie to see if my makeup is less sheer
Primer: Revlon Vital Radiance, cool, discontinued
Foundation: Chanel, discontinued, trying to use this one up
Rouge: Chanel, stick, discontinued
Powder, my sparkly mix, then Signature Club A Hyaluronic
Blush: Lancome Petticoat Pink, along my cheekbones
Lips: Fyrinnae Visual Kei Lip Luster — my labels are getting all funky — are your? — such a pretty color!
Isn’t this pretty!
What do you think?
