Went to Chicago for a couple of days and actually wore makeup, which is AWESOME because that whole 'less sucky skin' thing makes it go far more quickly in the mornings.
Lid/crease: ES Cerberus over Pixie Epoxy
Inner corner/highlight: mmm.... possibly SM Silk Sheets, maybe AL Alyssum
Liner: Covergirl marker thing, which I still love
The thing that drove me NUTS about these pictures is that they only show the coppery shimmer of Cerberus, making it look like a boring brown. In reality it looked more like a deep red-maroon with strong (but not overwhelming) shimmer and just the tiniest hint of fuchsia at the edges. The first photo is a little closer to what I mean, but still. STILL.
Lid: lightest matte from the WnW Vanity palette
Crease: medium matte from WNW Vanity palette
Liner: SM Gasoline Rainbow over Pixie Epoxy
Lower lashline: shitty smudged eyeliner
Mascara: Maybelline The Falsies Waterproof
Probably shouldn't have let the PE dry as much as it did, but whatevs. I liked the way this looked.
Lid: lightest matte from WnW Vanity palette
Crease: darker shimmer from same palette
Highlight: very tiny amount of the light gold in same palette
Liner: Archetype Unseelie Court
Mascara: Maybelline The Falsies waterproof
Crappy pictures of a pretty/simple look. I really liked this, and I'm pretty bummed that the pictures don't show how nice it actually looked. Such is life, yes?
I love that coppery shade! I don't think it looks boring at all yo!
ReplyDeleteI don't dislike the color, I'm just disappointed that I can't get it to look like it really does. irl it was more like this swatch: http://www.flickr.com/photos/26058082@N08/5557364569/
ReplyDeleteCerberus and Gasoline Rainbow are GORGEOUS! You look fantastic in all these looks. (And I happen to like smudgy eyeliner, so just pretend it was on purpose and go on with your bad self. ;) )
