A weekend look using the L'Oreal minerals that I reviewed yesterday.

I reworked my eyes, I thought, from the day I wore Burnt Roses in the crease to show it is possible to get it softer. See it here. I see that I reversed the colors on the lids, so it's not exactly the same.

Crease: AL Burnt Roses
Outer corners and drylined under the eyes: Strawberry Despair
Inner Corners: Persephone
Lined upper and lower with Black Cherry gel liner, using the back end of a liner brush.
Concealer: YSL Eclat

Sunscreen: Neutrogena.

Primer: Sheer Cover
Foundation, Glow (used up the center of my face), Blush (on cheekbones): all L'Oreal minerals
Rouge: NARS Riviera stick
Powder: my sparkly mix, that's all; I did not use the Hyaluronic today.
My take:
L'Oreal went on well; I like the colors. A few hours later it drifted into the pores of my nose and I had to fix it by rubbing it off. That is not unusual for me which is why I generally do not put anything on my nose at all. I think it looks better naked than with little light dots on it, LOL!

I used my Lancome mineral foundation brush to apply the foundation with. I just love, love, love that brush!

Lips: NYX Lips B 52, a warm pink brown, darker on than I expected from the tube.

Here's the picture of the day I didn't like the crease:

Which one do you prefer?
