Wore this one out to a concert (Phildel was playing at the Drake Hotel in Toronto – check her out). I’ve been hoarding this pink cosmetic glitter for what feels like eons now (seriously, a friend gave me some of this about ten years ago) and never really thought to wear it because I didn’t used to wear a lot of pink (I still don’t really). For whatever reason, it sprung into my head as I was getting ready for the show so I decided to give it a shot.
Eyes: I used Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original to prime the lid. I then applied SleekPout all over the lid (take a while to pack this on) and then used Urban Decay Blackout in the outer corner and into the crease. To blend out the black, I used Urban Decay Buck at the top of the crease to help blend it into my brow highlight which was MAC Brule. I also lined the lower lid with Pout (inner half) and Blackout (outer half).
To add the glitter, I first applied Too Faced Glitter Glue wherever the pink eyeshadow was, then dabbed the glitter over top. I wish I knew what the glitter was, but I don’t as it’s been decanted into an unlabeled bottle. It’s a very transparent pink glitter with a slight blue iridescence.
I then lined the upper lash line with Physicians Formula Ultra Black liquid liner and applied Ardell Demi lashes with some Duo adhesive. To finish off the look I appliedL’Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black mascara (waterproof).
Face: Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation in 52 Vanilla with Revlon Bronzed & Chic as my bronzer.
Lips: NYX Butter Gloss in Strawberry Parfait
Cheeks: Tarte Blissful
Just a very plain, neutral look.
Eyeshadows: Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original all over the lid and up to the brow. Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze layered on top of the primer (all over the lid, barely into the crease). I then applied Urban Decay Sidecar (be careful with this one, the glitter gets EVERYWHERE) to the inner two-thirds of the lid with Urban DecayHustle in the outer corner and slightly blended into the crease. MAC Brule was used to highlight the brow and blend Hustle in slightly.
Liner: Maybelline Gel Liner in Blackest Black
Lashes: Well, according to my notes on this look, I have single lashes glued in, so they would be by Ardell. Good thing I wrote it down, because I wouldn’t have picked up on them from these shots. I used CoverGirl Clump Crusher in Very Black as my mascara.
Playing around with my Laura Mercier Artist palette.
Primer: Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original
Eyeshadows: I used the light lavender shade from the MUA Pretty Pastels palette all over the lid with Laura Mercier Ink on the outer third of the lid. Laura Mercier Vanilla Nuts was used to highlight the brow.
Liner: Physicians Formula Eye Booster in Ultra Black
Mascara: L’Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black (waterproof)
Rest of the Face:
- Cheeks – Tarte Dollface
- Lips – NYX Butter Gloss in Maple Blondie
- No foundation or bronzer
Just an easy one I did while getting ready for work in the morning.
Primer: Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original
Eyeshadows: Inglot AMC Shine 24 over the entire lid with Urban Decay Gunmetal in the outer corner and blended into the crease. MAC Brule as my brow highlight.
Mascara: L’Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black (waterproof)
Jeez, this one just looks boring looking at in pictures! Although I’m sure there’s some neutral lovers out there that will prefer this to my more colourful looks.
Eyeshadows: UDPP in Original all over the lid. (All Laura Mercier) Guava all over the entire lid, Truffle blended into the outer corner and through the crease with Vanilla Nuts as a brow highlight. I then pressed Espresso into the lashline to create a soft liner.
Mascara: L’Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black (waterproof)
Rest of the Face:
- Cheeks – Tarte Dollface
- Lips – NYX Butter Gloss in Peaches and Cream
- No foundation or bronzer
