I received a few requests to see a tutorial after a look last week with pink cheeks and bronze, gold and purple eyes, so here it is!

I keep this one in my back pocket for date nights and parties because it’s a little bit dressy, but not full-on formal. could be a great look to wear to a work holiday party.

Last week I used a couple of limited edition products from BECCA that are out of circulation now (the Halcyon Days palette and Cabrera liner Duo), so this time around, to make things a little much easier to duplicate, I replaced those pieces with similar colors from MAC’s permanent line (the other BECCA products here are still available).

Produktene

Swatches from the left: BECCA Eye Tint in Gilt, MAC Soba Eyeshadow, MAC Woodwinked Eyeshadow, MAC Prunella Eye Kohl, MAC Teddy Eye Kohl, BECCA Marcella Eyeshadow, BECCA Lychee beach Tint, Becca Damselfly Blush, BECCA Flowerchild Blush, MAC Sublime culture Cremestick liner and Illamasqua Intimacy Lipgloss

A shimmery golden bronze cream shadow like BECCA Eye Tint in Gilt

A satiny golden brown eyeshadow like MAC Soba

A shimmery, warm peachy gold like MAC Woodwinked

A dark plum liner like MAC Prunella

A reddish golden bronze liner like MAC Teddy and Powersurge layered together

A shimmery golden purple eyeshadow like BECCA Marcella (from the Balearic love Palette)

A pink cream blush like BECCA Lychee beach Tint

A peach and pink powder blush like BECCA Damselfly and Flowerchild

A pinky nude lip liner like MAC Sublime Culture

A pinky nude gloss like Illamasqua Intimacy

Steg for steg

Start by patting the shimmery bronze eyeshadow all over your lids.

Next, sweep your satiny golden brown eyeshadow directly on top of the bronze eyeshadow you just used.

Then, pat a warm peachy gold from your lashes down into the crease.

Line your upper water line and upper lash line with your plum liner, and then smudge out the edges with your golden purple eyeshadow.

Line your lower lash and water lines with your reddish golden bronze liner.

Fill in your brows, and apply mascara.

Now, blend the pink blush on your cheeks, and layer the peach and pink powder blushes on top.

Lastly, line and fill in your lips with your pinky nude liner topped with a layer of nude gloss.

Additional makeup worn in this look: MAC Concrete (brows), BECCA Radiant Skin Satin foundation in Bamboo (all over face), BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector in Moonstone (around the center of your face) MAC select Moisturecover Concealer in NW25 (under your eyes), Chanel natural finish loose Powder (all over your face) and Le volume de Chanel Mascara (lashes)

One last thing — that black and white sweater I wore in the post? It’s by BCBG. here it is in action in action in this outfit of the Day.

P.S. What are we gonna do now without The walking Dead on Sunday nights?? Seriously, I’m going through zombie withdrawals…

Do you have any recommendations? I can trade a motion picture rec in return. A great rental called Beasts of the southern Wild. It’s a modern day fairy tale of sorts (definitely for grownups though) about a tiny, isolated community of people who live in the marshlands south of some levees that I think are somewhere along the Gulf Coast. The levees act as a wall, not only keeping storm waters from flooding the North, but also keeping the people north and south apart. The southerners, a lot of of them by choice, but the youngest among them because they don’t know any different, live their entire lives in this tight-knit bayou community that might as well be on the other side of the world.

I thought it was fascinating, at times very disturbing, and touching at the same time.

BRR, det er kaldt ute …
Du får alt dukket opp, tilbringer en del av morgenen din klar til å møte dagen, og deretter bam! – Du åpner døren og det er stormen av århundret utenfor. Kanskje det er en kraftig nedtur, og regnet kommer inn fra alle retninger (selv sidelengs!), Eller det er en snøstorm, og det er fem meter snø som blokkerer inngangsdøren din, eller det er monsun sesongen i tropene, og det er fuktig nok utenfor Å puste med Gills, og smelte selv den mest industrielle styrke som lenge bærer sminke i løpet av få minutter.

Når været utenfor er skremmende, gjør du fortsatt sminke?

ANNONSE

Jeg gjør absolutt. Vi blir ikke ofte ekstremt, ekstremt vær her, men ofte gjør vi det. Her er det tunge downpours, normalt i sen vintertid og vår, og når de skjer, buster jeg ut mine vanntette og langsiktige ting.

Jeg starter vanligvis med en vanntett mascara. Maybelline gjør en jeg elsker kalt full ‘n myk vanntett. Det håndterer tungt regn, og det er utrolig kostnadseffektivt (bare $ 7).

Da legger jeg til en tøff-as-nagler brow filler som timeglassbue, som jeg er seriøst besatt av (igjen!).

For huden min, Mac ansikt og kropp, som ikke budger ikke for Nothin ‘. Så under-øye concealer å skjule de irriterende mørke sirkler, etterfulgt av et lite pulver, rødme og bronzer. Jeg vil normalt velge noe som ikke-klebrig på leppene mine, som en flekk eller leppestifter, med tanke på at å få hår fanget i glanset mitt, er aldri morsomt …

Hva med deg? Gjør du fortsatt sminke når været utenfor er skremmende (regnfull, snø, gal fuktig)?

P.S. Velkommen til Hump.

using the new Giorgio Armani summertime 2013 Eye & deal with combination on my cheeks as well as eyes
Rest assured that when you wear Giorgio Armani’s summertime 2013 deal with & Eye Palette, you will not look like…

You just won the 2013 Jell-O Wrestling world Championships

You just crushed a can of PBR against your forehead

You opened your eyes this morning as well as let out a 30-second-long barbeque potato chip-tinged burp that somebody heard on the other side of town

Rather, when you clean the shimmery golden bronze highlighter on your cheeks as well as any type of combination of its three accompanying powder shadows on your lids, you’ll look much more like you spent the day channeling Jackie O. on the Greek coastline with a pair of Stephen Bonanno palm beach sandals, large glasses (of course) as well as a Lily Pulitzer shift dress.

Even if you have absolutely no concept what you’re doing with this two-tiered eye as well as deal with compact, you practically can’t go wrong since the long-lasting powders hug skin like skinny denim hug hips.

They’re just ordinary simple to wear.

The golden peachy bronze highlighter in the top pan as well as the beige, brown as well as peach eye shadows in the bottom pan are like great pieces of fashion jewelry that choose everything. You might gown ’em up with RiRi Woo red lips as well as a body-con bandage dress, or gown ’em down with your preferred Clarins gloss as well as a sundress.

Himmelen er grensen.

And even if you completely botch that brown smokey eye you were going for (been there, done that about 1,622 times), don’t fret. You can buff it out with a few swipes of your MAC 217 (or something similar), as the soft powders are completely unlike magnets or the Borg (read: they offer extremely bit resistance).

Seriously, even if you can’t blend for sh*t (don’t worry!), you might do a look with these that would make even the most seasoned makeup nerds recognize.

Time to paint those paws!
I like many, many things about MAC, however I have to state — I haven’t always been the biggest fan of their nail polishes.

That’s mainly been since of the clean — it’s the old-fashioned style, where the bristles frequently spread out, which makes applying the polishes type of a chore.

ANNONSE

I dunno… I just prefer the flatter-style of brushes from brands like OPI, where it’s simple to get that nice crisp edge I like. I’ve always discovered those type of brushes easier to use.

And then there’s the MAC formula. a few of the shades just seem to chip sooner than I’d like, as well as I don’t believe I’m the only person who notices it. Whenever I mention a MAC polish to my girlfriends, they’re like, “Yeah. MAC? Nei. The chipping.”

Creams, frosts, pearls as well as glitters, oh my!

The brand reworked their entire nail line. The new studio nail Lacquer line ($12 each) now includes 36 shades spread out among four completes in cream, frost, pearl as well as glitter.

They likewise introduced new base as well as top coats called Underlacquer as well as Matte Overlacquer, respectively.

Joining the studio nail Lacquer line is a new household of six top coats called the nail Transformations (also $12 each), designed to modification the look as well as feel of nail polishes used with them.

Deets on those soon, as I’m still testing, however if you can’t wait, they’re offered now online…

With the reformulation, MAC added conditioning components like Vitamins C, E as well as B5 to the formula, together with a lot of new colors (although they did bring over many of the O.G. ones too), as well as then there’s the previously mentioned new brush…

Now it has the flat shape! Aaaah! [THE CLOUDS PART]

With it, I notice that I can cover a great deal more surface area per swipe, as well as it’s easier to produce nice sharp edges.

So, Where Are They?

They’re almost here! They’re en route, you might say. The studio nail Lacquers show up July 3 on the MAC website (in stores July 10, 2014), as well as are headed for the long-term line.

The nail Transformations, however, are offered on the internet now, as well as coming to stores July 3 (also to the long-term line).

Swatches, Yo! del 1

This very first batch features a few of the summery colors (corals, peaches, pinks), reds as well as darker creams, for those already in autumn mode.

So far, so good, in terms of application. most of the shades I’ve tried go on smoothly as well as appear pigmented on my nails. In some cases, I’m even able to get away with a single coat.

I’m still testing these for wear time. will they last longer than the O.G. MAC lacquers before chipping? Følg med. bare tiden vil vise…
