I had a little play with my new Manly palette. I have to admit, I did enjoy myself. I was a little overwhelmed by all of the colours but I eventually settled on Greens.

I used Jadet and Dark blue from the palette on the lide with a little Chartruese along the lashline. I like it, pretty for Spring. (more…)

Face of the Day: Neutrals

'Tweet this' button

Today’s make-up is very neutral. I actually toyed with the idea of not wearing any at all but I had time to kill.

I used:

Face

  • Chanel Pro-Lumiere Foundation (shade 30)
  • MUFE Loose Powder
  • MAC Blunt (contour)
  • Benefit Coralista
  • Prestige Sun Baked highlight

Eyes

  • MAC Phloof (inner third of eye and brow bone)
  • MAC Aintiqued (crease)
  • MAC Beautyburst (LE – Outer corner)
  • 17 Va Va Voom

Lips

  • MAC Hue Lipstick
  • Nars Turkish Delight Gloss

Safe and boring but that’s how I felt today. Couldn’t face colour, maybe tomorrow!

Maybelline Quad – Enchanted Forest

'Tweet this' button

PIC_0110I picked up the Maybelline eyeshadow quad in Enchanted Forrest for a couple of dollars in the US a few months ago.

I have tried a few of the Maybelline quads before and I wasn’t impressed with the quality. But this particular quad came highly recommended. So I decided to give it a go today.

The colours work really well on blue and green eyes. These quads come with instructions on where to apply them. I didn’t follow this. I used the highlight shade on the lid, the lid colour in the crease and then the outer corner colour in well, the outer corner. I used the crease shade under the eye.

the pigmentation isn’t outstanding but it is nice. It’s perfect for day wear. I don’t think they are pigmented enough for a big night out though. They’re soft and easy to apply. Best of all, they are cheap!

Have you tried these yet?

No Fancy Make-Up for me Today!

'Tweet this' button

This weekend I decided to set myself a drugstore make-up challenge. I only allowed myself wear products that I bought in Boots, Superdrug and CVS. I wanted to keep it quite natural. Here is the look I settled on:

and the look…

  • No 17 Get Even Foundation in Natural
  • Beauty UK Palette No 2
  • Eco Tools Brushes
  • Rimmel Recovery Concealer
  • Maybelline Mousse Blush: Peach
  • Prestige Sun Minerals in St Tropez
  • Prestige Sun Minerals Highlight
  • Bourjois Blanc Diaphine
  • Natural Collection Lip Liner in Almond
  • Annabel Eye Liner
  • Revlon Sable Eye shadow
  • Wet n Wild Mega Shine
  • Essence Gloss

I really enjoy using the Beauty UK Palette. I applied the orange shade to the lid and the aqua under my eye. I used Revlon Sable in the crease to blend out the orange and Bourjois No 40 on the inner corner of my eye. I think the No 17 foundation requires a post of it’s own.

My make-up lasted as long as it usually does with more expensive products. I’m converted. For today anyway!
