MAC Cosmetics - Gold 005


I used Accent Red pigment on outer lid, Golden Lemon pigment on inner lid, Goldmine eyeshadow on inner lid and lower lash line, Coppering eyeshadow on outer lid and crease, Passionate eyeshadow on outer lid, Rite of Spring eyeshadow above crease and on brow, and Graphblack technakohl on lower lash line. I wore Springsheen blush with Fever blush and Enriched Refined Bronze to contour and Pink Opal pigment to higlight. I had Mari-sheeno lipstick with Vibrational lipglass on my lips.

You do such amazing work!

I’d love to see a full shot of your face when you are done for the full effect – especially your blush and any highlighting you do. Do your girlfriends ask you to do their makeup all the time? How long does it normally take you – 30 mins?

Here you go, Samantha 🙂 Today was a heavy blush day, in hindsight, should have gone lighter, but I was anxious to try out a new blush I picked up.

Nope, they don’t ask, but I have more guy friends than girl friends, LOL. It takes me maybe 15-25 minutes; depends on how complicated the look is and whether or not I’m getting ready to go out or just having fun.

Hi Christine,

I absolutely LOVE this look on you(the gold/pinkish coral combo is fantastic), it’s so fresh and vibrant!

What color would you say the accent red is by itself?

Is Golden Lemon pigment a reissue or something? I was on their site today and it said it was “coming soon!”…

Gorgeous look though…must try it sometime.
