A Teal Look

Sorry it has been a while since I've posted any looks. I have been busy with the end of the semester and trying to get everything ready for the baby.

I am hoping to get the Tarte Smoldereyes set from Sephora tomorrow and the Year of Beauty set from Bare Escentuals in the next few days. So hopefully I will be able to post some looks with both of those sets this week.

Today I decided to do a nice bright look with Buxom Stay There in Saint Bernard. In doing this look I discoverd that Max Volume (the teal from the Playlist) actually looks dark teal over saint bernard--so that was awesome.

EYES:

PTFE Brightening Pearl,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radiance all over,
Buxom Stay There Saint Bernard lash into crease,
Max Volume (R) in crease and outer corner and along lower lash line,
One Hit Wonder (R) under brow and inner corner,
Big and Bright liner in Midnight Moon upper lash line,
Falsies winged mascara.


CHEEKS: Pink Petal Blush
LIPS: Bavarian Creme lipstick

Bare Escentuals Ready: The Playlist

The Playlist is the second special edition holiday palette from Bare Escentuals. This palette has warmer colours than The Cocktail hour. I think I just prefer cooler colours and so I don't like this palette as much as the cocktail hour. I also think the colours in this palette are not as unique as I hoped. I really wanted this palette because of the teal Max Volume, but it really does not look teal at all on my eye. The purple also has brown undertones in it and when blended with the other colours does not look purple (alone and worn with pinks it does look purple). Overall if you like browns and other neutral earthtones you will probably like this palette quite a bit, but if you were looking for unique colours on the brighter side you could probably skip this one.

Bare Escentual Ready The Afterparty 4.0

I got Ready Afterparty quad during the Sephora VIB sale. It is a really nice quad. I didn't think I would like the purple colour in this palette but I love it. You can do a smoky eye or something more subtle with this palette. I decided to do the night look that comes in the box and then two other looks. These shadows blend really easily so getting a nice smoky eye is effortless with this palette. The lightest colour is not quite white and looks similar to the silver, but overall this is a very nice palette.

Cheers lash to brow,
Lights Down lash into crease on outer 3/4,
Mingle lash to crease on inner 1/3ish,
