Oooh! Absolutely gorgeous. Thanks so much for the pictures. Really helps in deciding whether to buy charred and how to apply it if you already own it!
Very nice, Naomi! Thanks for sharing pictures!
That’s really pretty. I wish I had Milady. I need a good red.
Can Milady be repalced by Mythology or Coppering?
I replace it with Coppering. I wanted to re-create a look Christine did and she told me to use Coppering instead of the red part of Mi’Lady.
Toss in a touch of Passionate to really rev up Coppering
Mi’lady’s red isn’t THAT great, IMO. If you use it wet, it’s better than dry… but I use Coppering with a dash of Passionate – both are permanent colors.
I would use:
Mac Vanilla pigment
Mac Silver Fog pigment
Mac Dark Soul pigment
Diorshow unlimited mascara
Nars Silvana Blush + Nars Chelsea girls lacquer
Ohh, sounds gorgeous, Virginia! A super shimmery smoky eye
I would pair it with a peachy pink lip and cheek and some vanilla highlight.
or
charred in crease
blue brown pigment on lid and vanilla on eyebrow highlight.
So many options!
Oohh! I wouldn’t think to use it with Blue Brown, but that isn’t a bad idea!
ooh also wet as liner with a little blush and gloss for a played up daytime simple look
Nice tip, Kris!
I want Charred. I think it would look nice in a smoky eye with pink cheeks & nude lips.
It’s gorgeous, Ashlee! It’s such a great color for smoky eyes
I would use:
UDPP (I miss Graphito – that would have perfect!)
Nehru
Thunder
Black Tied to line
Plush lash in Black
Plum Foolery on cheeks
Dark Side on lips
Ohh, Graphito WOULD have been perfect, for sure!
I love that you put Thunder in there
You could use Expensive Pink for something a tad less drastic, or combine with Cranberry for something more flashy.
Those are great suggestions, Erin!
I now LOVE the look book! Seriously, now I know how to try and make use of Parrot and I’m so buying Charred! Keep these look books coming (esp. with the new collections e/s, its a double edged sword–makes me buy more e/s but I so want these!) lol
Naomi—I love how you’re showing us pics for looks you’ve done (I’ve seen with Charred and with Parrot)–you are also helping to make decisions and buy more! Thanks!!!
I’m so glad you like it, Lori!
