'Lust Red' Look

'Lust Red' Look

I seem to be loving smoky looks lately...what gives? LOL! I blame Saadeh from BeautySpot for her coaxing. This look incorporates some of my new haul items : ) that I will be sharing later today. I think I have found my new signature smoky eye products - Giorgio Armani Eyes To Kill Eyeshadows - #2 and #13 work so well for smoky looks.

Eyes:
PRIME:
I started off with NARS Smudgeproof Eye Shadow Base all over my lid up to the brow bone. I applied MAC Groundwork Paintpot (satin taupe) all over my lid up to my browbone as my primary base. Sonia Kaskuk Large Crease Brush

COLOR:
On the inner lid and tearduct area I applied matte nude eyeshadow from the Sleek Storm Makeup Palette. MAC 239 Eye Shader Brush
Next on the lid and slightly into the crease I applied Giogio Armani Eyes To Kill Eyeshadow in #02 Lust Red (black infused with red). MAC 242 Small Shader Brush
In the crease I used matte dark brown eyeshadow from the Sleek Storm Makeup Palette. Sigma Medium Angled Shading - E70 Brush
On the browbone area for blending and for highlight I used matte nude eyeshadow from the Sleek Storm Makeup Palette. Sigma Medium Angled Shading - E70 Brush
For my lower lashline I used MAC Pearlglide Intense Eye Liner in Designer Purple (purple w/ fuchsia sparkles).
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

DEFINE:
I lined my upper lashline with Stila Stay All Day Liquid Eyeliner in Black.
I lined my lower waterline with L'Oreal HIP Cream Eyeliner in Black. Sigma Eye Liner - E05 Brush
I used MAC Haute & Naughty Lash Mascara for my lashes and added Beautee Sense Adventurous Eyelashes for effect.

Lips:
POLISH:
For my lips I used MAC Yash Lipstick (matte nude) topped with MAC Naked Space Lipglass (shimmery nude).

Face:

FINISH:
I primed my skin with MAC Oil Control Lotion. I used MAC Studio Tech Foundation in NC44 - Sigma Flat Top Synthetic Kabuki Brush - for my face and set my t-zone with MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium Dark - Sigma Round Top Synthetic Kabuki Brush.

I used MAC Bite Of An Apple Blush (matte coral-red) for my cheeks - Sephora Professionnel Contour Blush/Bronzer Brush #43 and MUFE #1 Sculpting Kit for contour and highlight - Sigma Angled Top Synthetic Kabuki Brush.
