'Violet Mustard' Look
So I'm trying to get back into the swing of makeup and I'm not quite sure how I feel about this look just yet. I love the mustard pigment from MUFE and I'm happy I found a suitable dupe for the long-gone and long-sought after Mustard Pigment from MAC but the combo leaves me with a not so fond feeling. Anywho onwards...
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 inner lid I applied MAC Vanilla Eyeshadow (matte ivory).
On the middle of the lid I applied MUFE #22 Pure Pigment (matte mustard yellow).
For the outer lid and crease I used MUFE #14 Pure Pigment (matte red based violet).
To deepen the outer V I used MAC Indian Ink Eyeshadow (matte dark purple).
I used Smashbox Nude Eyeshadow (matte nude) for blending in the crease.
For highlight I used MAC Ricepaper Eyeshadow (shimmery champagne).
I used MAC Blue Cyan Chromagraphic Pencil (matte cyan blue) for 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 L'Oreal HIP Cream Eyeliner in Black.
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 Lancome Color Design lipstick in B-List topped with Lancome Lipgloss in #217.
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 Gingerly Blush (matte orangey nude) for my cheeks and MUFE #2 Sculpting Kit for contour and MAC Petticoat MSF for highlight.
I'm quite sure that there was something evil in my eye or maybe I was winking? Ehem! IDK!
pretty! thank goodness youre back so i have some inspiration. im a newbie and my makuep creativity is pretty limited :-(
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! I can't take it. Three in one day. That is a very cute look. I love the cyan blue on the lower lash line.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: do you have someone else take your pictures or do you place the camera on a desk or tripod?

ReplyDeleteThis is too pretty! I love it. I'm a first time commenter long time reader of your blog. I love all your looks! Very inspiring.
ReplyDeleteThis look is amazing. I love the combination on this one. Glad you made it back safely.
ReplyDeletelike all your looks, I love it. you definately know how to work with colors
ReplyDeleteI love this color combo. So glad you are back giving me inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI think this is lovely. It's amazing how there are colors I swear I'd never wear, and then I see them in one of your looks and convince myself I must have them. Really, how much use would a mustard colored pigment get from me? Almost none, but I still want it because you make it look so good! LOL
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're back ... I've missed my daily dose of fancy!
I love this look of yours - you look super pretty and I agree with everyone that I'm glad you're back too!

I love this look! The colors are gorgeous... Just came across your blog and it's great. You're very talented!!
ReplyDeleteBesides Loving the Make-up, I have a questions about your hair: What products do you use? How do you keep it shiny?, Do you blowdry/style it yourself?. Thanks.
