MAC Cosmetics – Gold and Red Holiday Look with Metallic Eyes
Saturday, November 3rd, 2007
I used Uppity fluidline all over lid, Creme Royale eyeshadow on inner lid, Goldmine eyeshadow on middle of lid, Mi’Lady (red) eyeshadow on middle of lid and outer crease, Creme Royale eyeshadow above crease, Ricepaper eyeshadow on brow bone, Goldmine eyeshadow on lower lash line, and Graphblack technakohl on lower lash line. I wore Margin blush on cheeks with Sculpt sculpting powder to contour and Peach Haze beauty powder to highlight. I had Antiquitease lipstick with Red Romp lipglass on my lips.
I love this: http://www.temptalia.com/tutorial-dewy-glowy-flawless-skin-foundation-blush-contour-highlighting However, I'm thiking it's a bit too much, since I am wearing a red top.
To be honest, you could probably still do it. It just depends on how you match or don't match the reds, and what you're wearing elsewhere.
Hey, Christine! My birthday is coming soon and I'm wearing a RED top. What colour eyeshadow and lipstick/lipgloss do you recommend!?
Hey Sash! How glamorous do you want to be? You could feasibly do a red lip, or you could go for a smoky eye with a nude lip (presuming you're going out at night).
OOOO La La mommie. I likey..
Thank you, Yvette ;)
so festive and glam i love it!! I GOTTA get uppity!that whole line out yet?
Thanks Kris! Uppity has been out. The last two parts of the holiday collections will be out the 15th!
Hey Christine! This look is very lovely! How do you like using Uppity fluidline as a base? Does it have good staying power?
Thanks Kim! I love using it as a base -- it stays on all day long without creasing!
Yes! Very pretty. I still have to bust into my Uppity!
Thanks, Karen! Girl, get movin' on Uppity!! I'm dying to see how you work it.
Ooh I love the lips! I'm totally in favor of your idea of pairing Antiquitease l/s with Red Romp l/g, most people naturally pair the latter with Queen's Sin l/s, which can be overpowering for some. ;)
I agree, I tried it and almost ran out the store *hehehe*
Thanks Gwen! It does pair fabulously with Queen's Sin l/s, but I think Red Romp is the magical one of the two. It really does flatter so many lipsticks!
wow, very gorgeous =) u are very pretty =)
Thank you so much, Sandy! :D
