'Center Stage Prance' Look
I must say I have been liking these new MAC Mega Metal Eyeshadows. The finish is just so divine. They are super metallic and frosty without being chunky or glittery. I even went and picked up Dalliance and Prance (I have Saadeh/Shadowy Lady - BeautySpot to thank for enabling me) even though the lighter shades didn't grab me. I will do an additional swatch post with these eyeshadows later on tonight. For sure Dalliance is a must-have from this collection. i also picked up So Vain Lipcolor because it is just a gorgeous muted coral color.
Note: The eyeshadows work best on a tacky or damp base and won't stick as well to dry skin or a dry base.
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. Sonia Kashuk Dome Blending Brush

On the browbone area and for blending I used MAC Wild By Nature Eyeshadow (matte camel). Sonia Kashuk Dome Blending Brush
For highlight I used Urban Decay ABC Gum Eyeshadow (matte champagne). MAC Large 252 Shader Brush
For my lower lashline I used the MAC Spectacle Of Yourself Mega Metal Eyeshadow (frosted deep bronze). Stila #28 Smudge Pot Brush
BROWS:
My brows are filled in with MAC Eyebrow Pencil in Stud and NARS Coconut Grove Eyeshadow (matte blackened brown). Paula Dorf Eye Definer Flat Top Brush

FINISH:
I primed my skin with MAC Oil Control Lotion and Tarte ReCreate™ Silicone-Free Primer. I used MAC Pro Longwear Foundation in NC45 - Sigma Flat Top Synthetic Kabuki Brush - for my face and set my t-zone with MAC Blot Powder in Dark. I used MUFE #14 and #12 Full Cover Concealer - Fingers : ) under my eyes set with Benefit Powderflage - Beauty Blender Sponge.
I used MAC Gingerly Blush (matte capri bronze) for my cheeks - MAC 129 Powder/Blush Brush and MUFE #1 Sculpting Kit for contour and highlight - MAC 168 Large Angled Contour Brush.
Such a pretty look!
ReplyDeleteI was going to totally denounce this collection because the eyeshadows were boring to me. However, I did like the Pappara-she one. So I ended up getting that one and Dalliance. <---Gorgeous color. After swatching the Spectacle of Yourself at MAC SoHo, I think I may go back and get that one.
So pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love this look and your hair looks as though it's gotten very long and healthy!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful, you have gorgeous eyes! I passed on these eyeshadows but now I'm starting to regret it!

ReplyDeleteThanks Erin. I think the selling point for these shadows is the texture. They r so smooth and gorgeous. I agree with the blah colors tho except for Paparazz-She. But they r great staple colors and a divine consistency. I went and picked up Dalliance too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dolly!
