Green Smoky Eye Inspired by MUFE Smoky Palette

A few people have been talking about the Make Up Forever Smoky Palette that was supposed to be at Sephora but hasn't showed up yet. In any case the looks that are associated with this palette in the advertizing are really pretty. So I decided to do a look inspired by the green look. I think I will try to do the brown one tomorrow. Here are the MUFE looks:





I am going to put and (R) next to shadows that are from the Bare Escentuals Ready Palettes. Some of the shadows in the palettes have the same name as the loose minerals so it might get confusing.
EYES:

Too Faced Shadow Insurance,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radiance all over,
LORAC Beige lash to brow,
Swanky under brow and inner corner,
For Real lash into crease on most of lid and dry lined along lower lash line,
Black Tie Optional (R) in V,
Big and Bright in Intense black along upper and lower lash line softened with For Real,
Falsies mascara.


CHEEKS: TTYL blush
LIPS: Sydney Buxom with a little bit of Tarte Pouty smudged into it.

In the mood for Mint

I wanted to wear mint today so I kind of built this look around that colour. I was going to wear grey in the crease but then I saw beach goddess and decided to go with that instead.

I used a synthetic blush brush to apply the Tarte cheek blush. This is one of those cream sticks. When I used this the first time I applied it with my fingers and it felt really thick and heavy and I couldn't get an even application. I was able to get a more even application with the brush and it feels better on but I really had to blend it out and I think I might have lost some of my foundation. But I like it better this way.




EYES:

Too Faced Shadow Insurance,
50/50 mix well rested/clear radince all over,
High Shine Charisma under brow and lash to crease on inner 1/2,
Mint lash to crease,
Beach Goddess dry in crease and then foiled lash to crease on outer 1/3ish,
For real wet lined on top, dry on bottom,
Tarte Mascara.


CHEEKS: Tarte the perfect rose applied with the Keling synthetic blush brush.
LIPS: Aveda Sassafras

Sorry it's a little blurry
