This look was done on Sunday :) Something neutral while celebrating my sister’s birthday with the fam. I did a very neutral look today (which I love, can’t wait to share), as some of my relatives are in town, and I’m five minutes from heading out to meet up with my family and the extended family members for dim sum (mmm!).
Happy hump day!
EDITED: UGH! Don’t post in hurry! Actual pictures up!
You will need the following…
- Eyes: Soft Ochre paint pot (creamy neutral base), Dreammaker eyeshadow (soft yellow-gold), Bold & Brazen eyeshadow (coppery brown), Go! eyeshadow (dark gold-brown), Orpheus kohl power (gold-black), Plushlash mascara (black)
- Cheeks: Dainty mineralize blush (soft peachy pink)
- Lips: Gypsy Rose Pro Longwear Lustre Colour (medium pink)
- Brushes: 266 (firm, angled brush), 249 (flat, firm brush), 239 (fluffy shadow brush), 129 (dense blush brush)
- Substitutes: Dreammaker = Nylon; Bold & Brazen = Twinks; Go! = Woodwinked, Orpehus = Buried Treasure; Dainty = Peachykeen, Gypsy Rose = Skew
Directions: Define brows using a coordinating powder shadow applied with the 266 brush. Apply Soft Ochre paint pot all over the lid as the base with the 249. On the inner lid, apply Dreammaker eyeshadow using the 239. Apply Bold & Brazen to the middle of the lid, overlaying it with Dreammaker. Darken the outer lid using Go! eyeshadow and drag into crease using the 239. Sweep Dreammaker underneath the brow bone to highlight. Finish with Orpheus kohl power on lower lash line, and Plushlash mascara on lashes. Sweep apples of cheeks with Dainty using the 129. Apply Gypsy Rose liquid lip color to lips, and then top with gloss side for color and shine.
oh u look so fresh! :D lovin’ the lip colour =)
Thanks, Livia!
I really love this look hun!
Oh and your substitutes have the wrong info, maybe form a previous post, just so ya know:)
Very pretty look though, I can’t wait to get my hand on some of the prolong wear:)
All fixed :)
Thanks, Elise!
I wore a look using Dreammaker to too. I wasn’t going to buy it but when I went to get the items I did want it spoke to me and turns out to be different enough that I grabbed it. I think it’s going to be a favorite of mine.
Nice! I really find Dreammaker to be my favorite from the launch… so far at least. Glad you like it, too!
This is very pretty! Love the lip color
Thank you as always, Gio :)
Sooo pretty!
How come the colors seem so light on you? Is it the flash, a very light application, your skintone? Bold&Brazen seems so dark in the pan!
Also loving the lip color.
Hey Nell! Bold & Brazen is not too dark - it’s coppery and medium dark to me!
You look gorgeous! I really think neutrals with a slightly bold lip are really your thing :) I planned on stopping by MAC on my way home today to pick up Bold & Brazen as well as check out the rest of the Lustre Twins (so far, I only picked up Ripe & Ready). Gypsy Rose is soooo lovely on you though - I think I need it :)
Thanks, Ariele :)
It’s so rare that I get the chance to do bold lips, so I have to do it when I can!
Love this look! Working under a fluorescent lighted office environment I only wear neutral looks like this one.
Btw…Dim sum is the bomb diggity!!! My fave!!!
Thanks so much, Lucy ;)
My boyfriend LOVES dim sum. I like it, but I have to admit I’ve been spoiled by having it every week or two for the past ten years of my life, LOL.
Nice look! I love Dainty…just bought it, too. I always wanted NARS Orgasm Blush, but I think Dainty is a total dupe for it…I’m not absolutely sure about this, though. Can anyone tell?
Happy to hear you’re lovin’ Dainty! It’s so pretty :)
I don’t own Orgasm, unfortunately!
your eyebrows look nice!!!
Thanks, Kensie!
Very pretty Christine, I like that one. And the lip color goes with it perfectly.
Thanks a lot, JillyB :D
Ooooh, I’m so glad I just purchased gypsy rose! It’s gorgeous!
Yay! I’m glad you did!
you’re a doll! you have my exact eye color, too. i’ll try this look, but i don’t think i’ll pull it off as well as you! you should swing by my blog for my lucca bag giveaway!
Thanks, Mary! I bet you could, though ;)
I love this look! Have you ever tried any make up by Flirt! or meet mark from Avon?
Thanks, Talya! Not really, I’ve only tried a few Flirt! products.
ooOh that gypsy rose looks gorg!
It is, Jeannie!
This is gorgeous! Could you possibly do a tutorial for this look?
Thanks, Trace! I will try!
That’s a gorgeous look! You definitely pull off bold lip colours very well. This look just makes me want Orpheus kohl power and Go! eyeshadow even more! Do you think those would still be in stores?
And wow, Gypsy Rose is super bright and bold. Is the colour that bright because you applied a lot of the PLW or because that’s the way you have to apply it. I was thinking of getting one of them for everyday use, but I don’t know if they’ll look patchy if I just apply them lightly (especially the lip colour…I’m not so worried about the gloss).
Thanks so much, Miss Fred! Oh, I think they should both be in stores, still. It has only been about a week since they’ve launched :)
It’s hard to apply these lightly - I agree it’ll probably come out a bit patchy!
Great look! I love the neutrals from this collection although I didn’t get the lighter highlighting shades. Plus I have Nylon & don’t love it as I think I would.
Go swatched more like Tempting (I don’t own) at the counter than Woodwinked, which was interesting to me in that YMMV way with skintones.
I’m loving the neutral shades, too :) I skipped Grand Entrance, but there was no way I’d pass up Dreammaker, lol.
I’ve always been rather anti-brown but you make it look so beautiful! great job
Aww!! Browns can be good, too :) It took me awhile before I learned to appreciate them.
Christine, i just love the neutrals on u! They really make your eyes pop! I wish u wud do a youtube tutorial for the matte look ur bf suggested….:) or evn this one!
Thanks, Charlene! I will try!
DAYUMMMMMMMMMM!
I love the lips!
I always love ur eyebrowns, it’s never Pam. Anderson thin.
I HATE THAT!
Thank you, Sash! LOL, but they were, oh but they were!
I love this look!! I am so tempted to get dreammaker and GO! eyeshadow as well!!!!!!! URGGHHH!!!
