'Raspberry Punch' Look

'Raspberry Punch' Look

So I started off this look with the Naked Cosmetics Shock Effect Pigment Stack in hand and it totally failed. I am not a fan of these pigments at all...they are borderline useless to me. Let me know if you guys want a full blown review on these because I don't want to just bash the products and hear myself complain.

Anyhow onto the look which I had to resuscitate with Inglot eyeshadows....after I chucked the Naked Pigments out of my way.

Eyes:

PRIME:
I started off with NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base all over my lid up to the brow bone. I also applied MAC Layin' Low Paintpot (matte creamy beige) all over my lid up to my brow bone as my primary base.

COLOR:
On the inner lid I applied MAC Blanc Type Eyeshadow (matte ivory).
Next the middle of the lid I applied Inglot #362 Eyeshadow (matte raspberry pink).
On the outer lid I applied Inglot #371 Eyeshadow (matte vivid blue).
For the crease I used Inglot #388 Eyeshadow (matte purple).
On the brow bone and for the blending I used Smashbox Nude Eyeshadow (matte nude).
For highlight I used MAC Vanilla Eyeshadow (matte ivory).

BROWS:
My brows are filled in with MAC Eyebrow Pencil in Stud.

DEFINE:
I lined my upper lashline with Stila Stay All Day Eyeliner in Black.
I lined my lower waterline with Loreal HIP Cream Eyeliner in Black.
I lined my outer lower lashline with MUFE #22 Aqua Cream (shimmery green).
I used Covergirl Lashblast Mascara for my lashes and added Beautee Sense Princess Lashes for effect.

Lips:

POLISH:
I used NYX Narcissus Lipstick with MAC Fab Frenzy Superglass.

Face:
 
FINISH:
I used MUFE Mat Velvet + Foundation in #70 with MUFE Full Cover Concealer in #12 under my eyes. I set with MAC Blot Powder in Dark. I used MAC Blush Ombre in Ripe Peach for my cheeks.

'Coral Cream Pop' Look

This is the look I wore to to the NYC Makeup Show 2010. It's an all matte look (can you tell that I love mattes yet?) that matched my shirt (yep...faux pas..uh huh) and I wore my top three favorite brands - MUFE, MAC, Inglot!
