I love the lip color! Amazing tutorial btw!
I love love LOVE this look. It makes me want to go buy all the colors and try it on myself. I definitely have to practice my blending before I attempt this though! Thanks for sharing, Heather!
Oh my gosh,this look is gorgeus!!I love the eyeshadow. :)
OMG, this look literally made my jaw drop. The colors are absolutely gorgeous! I'm still working on my application/blending skills, but this is one I will definitely put to practice on a blank eye chart. I think it's perfect for a sultry, summer evening! Thanks so much for sharing this!
Mara, your comment made me smile so big! :-D To tell you the truth, I was super nervous to send this to Christine...not sure if it was good enough, but I really liked the colors. I kept mulling over it, so your comment means so much. All of these super sweet comments have truly made my week. I humbly thank you so much!
You are so gorgeous! This is a stunning look, I am going to try hard to replicate, your blending and application is amazing!
Oh thank you Amy! I use different brushes...mostly the 213, but always either the 224 or 226 for the crease and blending. :-)
Heather, you gorgeous you! this is a kind of look that I'll be able to do everyday! Is fab n flashy a permanent? Can you suggest a dupe for it? Thanks for the inspiration
Hi Pia! I'm so happy you're going to recreate it too! Fab 'N Flashy came out a while ago and it was LE, but it's pretty orange colored. You could substitute Orange (lightly) or Paradisco. :-)
Why it look like she crying???
Oh no, I'm not crying! That's my birthmark under my left eye :-) Sorry, guess I need to clarify that before I post my pictures hehe.
That lip gloss is beautiful! The look suits you really well :)
Thank you Cecile!
i think there should be a tutorial done on this look - im going to try and recreate it with differnt colors because i only have gorgeous gold =[
I could try :-) I've never done a tutorial before...maybe it's time I try!
I dig it. Will be copying the look!
Awesome! That was my goal :-)
Great look, Heather! Reminds me of a sunset on an autumn day. =)
Ooooh good analogy! I love sunsets...well, who doesn't really? :-)
Ohhh it's really pretty. Very tropical!
Thanks Suuz :-)
This is an amazing look! Super gorgeous and extremely well done. I'll try and see if I can recreate it for my dinner this Saturday (: Thanks for the inspiration!
No problem! I'm so glad you liked it!
this is a stunning look. It really complements your hair colour! Gorgeous.
So nice of you to say, Evelyn! :-)
Very pretty!
Thank you Marsadie!
You're so pretty, Heather!!! I love this look on you! Is that a chalazion on your bottom left lid?=(
Thank you so much! Actually that's my birthmark :-) it's been there since I was born!
Oh, really?! Doesn't take away from your beauty at all. You're gorg, hun!
Aww thanks so much! I've learned to love it...kinda makes my eye unique in a way I think. I def. have a lot of people tell me I have makeup smudged under my eye though...and I tell them it's my birthmark and they get embarrassed, but it's all good. Makes me wonder how many people THINK that but don't say it hahaha :-)
Very elegant and beautiful look
Oh thanks Edda!
OMG! that is stunning! I love the color combinations you used..your blending is amazing...what a beautiful girl..hope to see more looks from you!
Aw you're so sweet :-) Thanks!!!!
wow! nice subtle use of post haste! and great pics too!
Oh thanks! I think I used a very whispy wash of it with a contour brush.
Lovely colours! This is totally the kind of look that I do :) thanks for sharing!
I'm so happy you liked it! Some of the colors are from one of the Holiday MAC Palettes (Warm Eyes I think?), but they're probably easily duped!
You look so sophisticated and pretty! Loving the color combo!!
Thanks so much, Faiza! I know they're not spring colors, but I did this look a while ago...when it fit better with the season :-)
Gorgeous look! You have fabulous blending skills. I love that lip color too!
Thanks Chrissy!
Wow heather - that came out gorgeous. your last pic is the ideal one where we can really see the look & your artistry. nice work!
Yeah, that last picture is my fav...it's why I liked how the look came out. Thanks!!
Beautiful look!
Thanks!
Very pretty look, especially the eyeshadow. Love the golden pop of color on the inner corners :)
Me too - but it's interesting that it doesn't show up as much in the close-up shots :-)
I love the eyeshadow combination! Very glam!
