I already received one compliment on this look today. Yippee!
I wanted to try the Arbonne looks, while not having the Arbonne colors. You know how that goes! And this picture shows you how important it is to have colors that don't smudge. One or both of either of these products smudged: Smolder MAC pencil liner or BE graphite. Neither one of these was applied wet, but they migrated instantly. Fortunately when I blink my eyes, you can't see it. I did blend it out a bit after this picture, but it is not perfect. And I want it to be perfect.
I was working with a BE set Renegade Chic that I like that came with two shadows, a blush, 2 brushes, and a gloss. As you can see, it's a very nice neutral set, which I thought I could play with to get a combo of the two Arbonne looks.
Eyes:
What's surprising is that these colors are definitely gray, but they pull blue-teal when seen with my shirt and photographed.

I just love it when a set is as pretty as this one, and as the Arbonne. I can't wait to get my order in!
To buy Arbonne from Bookgirl, if you don't have a representative, just ask.
