FOTD:- A Mac Pro LongWear look

This is a very quick and simple daytime look that is based on mainly Mac pro longwear 

products and featuring the new new Mac office hours pro longwear Blush in blush all day !

On My Face 

Mac Pro Longwear foundation nc30

Mac Pro longwear concealer nc30

Clinique Double face powder 'beige'

Mac Pro longwear blush 'blush all day'

Eyes

Mac pro longwear eyeshadow in 'sweet satisfaction'

Mac fluidline in 'blacktrack' on upper and lower lashline 

Mac mascara

Lips

Gale hayman liplift 

Mac pro longwear lipcreme in 'overtime'

Mac pro longwear eyeshadow in 'sweet satisfaction'

I already had the pro longwear eyeshadow in sweet satisfaction from when it was first launched it and fell in love with it instantly, its a very neutral eyeshadow and its somewhere in between mac all that glitters and mac satin taupe, both of which i own and love and now I love this more. its very smooth and pigmented in fact I like to apply this with my finger onto my eyelid and I have already made a dip into this eyeshadow which is rare for me. 

Mac Pro longwear Blush in 'Blush all day' 

Again, I instantly fell in love with this blush in the same way as i fell in love with the eyeshadow, its a very neutral colour that is a tad peachy, which is very complimentary on my golden beige/nc30 skin tone, so this was a must have for me. I also loved the theme of the mac office hours collection-The story of my life, stationary and cosmetics! if you opened my work drawers amongst snacks you would find a combination of all the stationary you could need as well as all the makeup you could want. 

Infact even at home I often find stationary items creep into my makeup area and my beauty items on my desk -lol!

Mac pro longwear lipstick in 'overtime' 

again I picked this up with the original pro longwear lipcremes, for me this was the best option, its a ery light pink, and is very pigmented and great for covering up pigmented lips like mine. I dont think that these lipsticks should cost more that the normal lipsticks though theyre not that special! this lipstick is like the pink sister of mac 'myth' lipstick. I dont like the packaging of these lipsticks if you bring the lipstick up you have ti push it back down with your finger which is uber-annoying! and its the same story for both shades that I own from this range, the other lipstick is 'good to go' a very orange lipstick that ive already featured in my holiday makeup bag post. 

Most items available from Debenhams,  House of Fraser, 

I hope you enjoyed this post

thanx for stopping by.

EOTD:- My everyday look

Using too faced natural eye palette

Products used 

Too faced natural eye eyeshadow palette 

Rubenesque paintpot 

Mac black track fluid line gel liner 

Mac lash primer

Mac zoom lask mascara 

mac feline khol power eye liner pencil

I have been doing this look almost everyday throughout the summer holidays 

I find that it is very complimentary to my skintone since its gold, bronze and rose gold 

Im using every colour in the palette except for one -because its glitter-mania!

Although i could realistically incorporate it into the look as inner corner and under eyebrow highlight 

Im thinking about doing a tutorial on this 

let me know your thoughts 

I had to share this with you as im still using this same look 

Is there a single palette that you are really loving or that really works for you ??

XOXO

Chanel illusion de ombre mirrifique no 85

Chanel illusion d ombre mirrifique 85 is really difficult describe 

its almost a gel product but with a spongey mousse texture

It almost reminds me of a moussey product smashbox did ages ago 

I love love this colour and have already used it a few times 

my 3 ways to wear it is 

no1 - as gel liner 

no 2 - as a cream eyeshadow on the lid for a gorgeous glittery smokey eye effect

no 3 - as a base on the lid for use under powder shadow for a smokey look

Picture above 

is Mac rubenesque paintpot  from lashes to lid

Chanel cream shadow liner as liner on both upper and lower lashline avoiding inner rim water line

Mac zoom lash mascara

EOTD:- Sleek Curacao look no 2

Eye of the day 

using Sleek Curacao palette 

again there was no real inspiration behind this look I just looked at the palette 

and decided to do a look starting from yellow and ending at green but with a splash of orange, pink and red.

My only regret looking back at the pic is that I forgot to add mascara 

this look would be amazing with full on dramatic lashes 

this colour reminds me of an exotic bird like a parrot or orange flowers in greenery

I hope you enjoyed this look 

XOXO

EOTD:- Sleek Curacao look no 1

This look is using yellows, oranges, pinks, reds, and purples 

I just wanted to try a look that starts at yellow and ends at purples 

having completed the look it reminds me of a yellow, red and purple sky at night 

I used my sleek curacao palette for this look

I will update this post soon to include the shade names too

XOXO

This is my smokey black and gold face of the day look but just the eye makeup posted as Eye of the day.

I love how the bronze lash overlay shows up in person and adds drama and bling to a smokey look

I also love the shimmery golden black loose shadow as opposed to using matte

EOTD: featuring MAC Opulash Mascara

Eyes are super simple for everyday wear

using just MAC Painterly paint pot

I really am searching for a true Volume and length do it all type of mascara

otherwise whats the point?

I was really excited to try Opulash

The latest Mascara creation by MAC

MAC say :-

The biggest, baddest, bouffant lashes EVER are making noise with their sexy sweep. Opulash creates aesthetic extremes when it gets going, for a dramatic end look. Superlative separation, sublime innovation: Everything a M∙A∙C Artist lives for!

I really dont think it lived up to my expectations

its an above average good mascara

but it doesnt have the complete ooomph wow X factor that Im looking for

Im wearing 2 coats

What are your thoughts?
