I have more of a backlog of looks than I thought I would since lately I’ve been reaching for a lot of the same products (I’m looking at you Naked 3). Thankfully the days are getting longer so I’m able to take pictures before I head off to work in the morning. One day I’ll actually invest in proper lights.

….one day.

I snatched up the Viva Glam Rihanna 2 lipstick when I realized that Miley Cyrus was infiltrating MAC and it wouldn’t be long before they completely stopped selling the shade. It’s a weird grey-brown, but it’s unlike anything I own (or have even ever worn). I even wore it to work – where, surprisingly, a lot of people actually said it looked blue. Not sure I see that, but I was a lot more comfortable wearing it than I thought I would be!

Eyes

1. Makeup Geek Unexpected through the crease.
2. Makeup Geek Mesmerized on the lid.
3. Makeup Geek Drama Queen in the outer corner.
4. Makeup Geek Vanilla Bean on the brow bone.

On my lashes is Too Faced Better Than Sex.

I’m not sure I had much inspiration with this one… I just wanted to use some colours I hadn’t yet worked into a look yet. I love the vibrancy though!

Eyes

1. Makeup Geek Poolside on the inner half of the lid.
2. Makeup Geek Caitlin Rose on the outer corner.
3. Makeup Geek Rock Star through the top of the crease.
4. Makeup Geek Vanilla Bean on the brow bone.

I used Tarte‘s Black gel liner to create the wing and applied Too Faced Better Than Sexmascara to my lashes.

Orangey-red lips are not typically my thing, so I did an easy matte eyelook to ease myself into it. Plus I just love the texture of Laura Mercier‘s eyeshadows so really… any excuse to use them!

Eyes

1. Laura Mercier Morning Dew on the inner half of the lid and on the brow bone.
2. Laura Mercier Deep Night on the outer half of the lid.
3. Laura Mercier Stone Taupe through the crease.

Once again, Tarte‘s gel liner in Black was used to create the wing and Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara is on my lashes.

• Blush: Laura Mercier Rose Gold
• Lips: MAC Barbecue

Playing around with some of my MAC shadows that I hadn’t touched in a while.

2. MAC Landscape Green pigment on the outer half of the lid.
3. MAC Greensmoke through the crease.
4. MAC Blanc Type on the brow bone.

Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara is on my lashes.

Totally random, but I decided to do a two-colour wing last weekend. I was pleased with how well this came out!
