'Retro Pin-up' Look
Hi guys! I am back! And I MISSED you guys soooooo much!!!! What a loooooong week that was. I'm playing 'catch-up' now both at work and play so please bear with me as I find my footing. I decided to do a quick post to get back into action so here goes. It's a simple retro pin-up look with neutral eyes, cat eyeliner and red lips! Va va voooom! And look at me wearing red on my lips....who would have thought???!!!
Eyes:
PRIME:
I started off with NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base all over my lid up to the brow bone. I applied MAC Layin Low Paintpot (matte beige) all over my lid and on my brow bone as my primary base.
COLOR:
For the lid I applied MAC Bisque Eyeshadow (matte light pinky beige).
On the outer lid and crease I applied MAC Wild By Nature Eyeshadow (matte camel) from the Leopard Luxe Eyeshadow Quad.
To deepen the outer V I applied MAC Cross Cultural Eyeshadow (matte dark yellow brown).
For highlight I used MAC Vanilla Pigment (shimmery light white gold).
I used MAC Cross Cultural Eyeshadow (matte dark yellow brown) on my lower lashline.
BROWS:
My brows are filled in with MAC Eyebrow Pencil in Stud.
DEFINE:
I lined my upper lashline with Wet 'n' Wild Gel Eyeliner in Black.
I lined my lower waterline with MAC Chromagraphic Pencil in NW25/NC30 (matte light beige).
I used MAC Haute & Naughty Lash Mascara for my lashes with Beautee Senses Adventurous false eyelashes for effect.
Lips:
POLISH:
For my lips I used Chanel Rouge Allure Laque in #75 Dragon.
Face:
FINISH:
I prepped my skin with MAC Oil Control Lotion. I used NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Tahoe for my face. I used MUFE Full Cover Concealer in #12 under my eyes set with Benefit Powderflage. I set my foundation with MAC Blot Powder in Dark.
I used MAC Pink Swoon Blush (matte bright blue pink) for my cheeks and MUFE #2 Sculpting Kit for highlight and contour.

ReplyDeleteThx ChrLvsBks and welcome to our little beauty community here.
ReplyDeleteGirl I have the same issue with red ending up on my chin. I wish I had a solution but there is no real true way to stop this from happening besides wearing a lipstain instead or trying our best not to touch our chins with our lips. Naughty chin action!
Thank goodness your back! Whew!!! I was stalking your page for a while,. hoping that you'd fill my Fancy Face "appetite".

ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteHave you noticed any brackouts with this sculpting kit because he contains talc ?
I want to try this out, but I’m a little bit scary…
Thank you in advance,
Sara.
Hi Sara. I haven't had any breakouts from the Sculpting Kit but I never have breakouts from makeup so I may not be ur best guinea pig :(
ReplyDeleteHi Tina, thank you for your answer!
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful with this makeup, you should be makeup artist :)
