Skin Tone/Coloring: Light neutral skin tone, green eyes, salt & pepper hair
Favorite Look: EYES/BROWS—Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Vol 1 Eye Palette (Cove in crease, Mermaid on inner and center lid, Reef on outer lid and to darken outer crease, Sand on brow bone), Cover Girl Clump Crusher Mascara, Marc Jacobs Brownie Highliner to tightline upper lid, Dior Brow Styler, Clinique Brow Shaper. FACE—Estée Lauder Double Wear Makeup, Tarte Shape Tape Concealer, Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Powder, NARS Orgasm Blush. LIPS—MAC Persistence
Most Used Products: Just my usual brow, foundation, powder, and concealer products.
New Discoveries: Nothing this week
Skin tone: Medium Warm (MAC NC37)
Favorite look: Purple and gold look. Pat McGrath Mothership III: skin Show fever (inner 1/3 eyelid), Gigabite (middle 1/3), Night Creature (outer 1/3). Pat McGrath La Vie En Rose: Purple Reigh in outer V and crease, and Rose Risque to blend out crease. NARS Unfiltered 2 Cheek Palette: Undefeated for inner corner and brow bone highlight (a beautiful pale pink highlight that is exceptionally pretty used in conjunction with purple and mauve eye looks). I put a thin line of Urban Decay glitter eyeliner in Midnight Cowboy across my upper lash line. I finished the look with Purple Rain on lower lash line, smoked out with Rose Risque.
I made a mauve lip by first staining my lips with Bite Beauty in Plum, and after wiping this away an hour later I lined my lips with Lancome lip liner in Mauvelle (holy grail status) and topped with Buxom Lip Polish in Brooke.
For my cheeks I stayed with the NARS Unfiltered II palette: Power Play, Candid, and Undefeated.
Most used product of the week: My new Sonia G brushes. I love them!
New beauty discoveries: Lily and Peach Lazy Day’s All in One Moisture Pads. My perfect pre-gym moisturizer for Saturday morning gym. I do a light face wash before the gym to remove any oils that might clog my pores and cause acne, and I need something light to give me adequate moisture without putting anything on my skin that is heavy or has actives that might cause my skin distress during my sweat-fest.
Here’s the look:

Pretty. And lots of work! I indulged in the Glass skin serum and the wild dew, but do not intend to use them too soon. I want some spring toys.
My skin tone/coloring:
light, MAC NC 15-20, med brown hair and eyes
Favorite look you wore:
MAC 2017 Holiday Gold Palette. Put the matte taupe color in the crease. The khaki green color on my eyelid. Layered the gold dazzleshadow on top. Cargo Swimmables Eyeliner in Pebble Beach on top lashline. Tarte Lights, Camera and Lashes Mascara. MAC Extra Dimension Blush in Bareness. MAC Kinda Sexy Lipstick
Most used product of the week:
MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation. Tarte Lights, Camera and Lashes Mascara. MAC Brow Pencil in Fling. Cargo Swimmables Eyeliner in Pebble Beach. Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Ethereal. Palladio Pressed Rice Mattifying Powder in Translucent Light. Becca Flowerchild Blush. MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Soft Ochre. Wet n Wild Coloricon Eyeshadow in Creme Brulee. Bite Agave lip mask in Champagne. Pat McGrath Mothership Sublime Bronze Ambition Palette
Any new beauty discoveries:
Bite Agave Lip Mask in Champagne and Pat Mcgrath Bronze Ambition are both new to me. Really impressed with the lip mask. The agave lip balm is average imo but the lip mask is nice! The PML palette is decent but not extraordinary by any means. Glad I have it but I now know I can hold out on PML until something really unique from her comes along!
?? ???? ????/????????: Very fair with neutral undertones; magenta/red hair; hazel/green eyes.
???????? ???? ??? ????: EYES — UD Primer Potion in Enigma. PML Sublime Bronze Temptaion Palette: Burning Desire (crease), Dark Paradise ( out edge of crease and blended into the true crease), Supernova (lid), Celestial (brow bone), Corruption smudged over UD 24/7 Eye Pencil in Roach (bottom lashline). Looxi Beauty HL in Voodoo (inner corner). ABH e/s in Love Letter (brows). UD 24/7 Eye Pencil in Perversion (upper and lower waterlines). Pacifica Dream Big Mascara. LIPS — Apocalyptic Beauty Lip Gloss in Hellsmouth. CHEEKS — NARS Hot Tryst: Swindle mixed with Friction. FACE — NYX Angel Veil Skin Perfecting Primer; Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation Stick in Alabaster; e.l.f. HD Powder; NARS Friction (as HL); Sephora Tranquil (as contour); Medusa’s Makeup Setting Spray.
???? ???? ??????? ?? ??? ????: NARS Hot Tryst Cheek Palette; Nyx Angel Veil; Medusa’s Makeup Setting Spray
??? ??? ?????? ???????????: I didn’t think I’d care for NARS Friction, because it’s a darker beige, but I love it as a highlighter. It didn’t work as a blush for me by itself, but mixed with Swindle it turns into a very flattering light plum shade. Hot Tryst is such an amazing palette! I’m so glad I splurged on it.
My skin tone/coloring: fair-medium light
Favorite look you wore: grey smoky with pop of pink & firenze Stila lipstick
Most used product of the week: Ren Ready Steady Glow Tonic
Any new beauty discoveries: Garnier Micellar Water!!! OMG, maybe I’m a snob, but Garnier has never appealed to me. But I needed a waterproof mascara remover as my Bobbi Brown remover spilled. Under $4 and it is flawless! No rubbing, just instant makeup remover. LOVE. Am going to buy backups.
Maybe a tad late to the Garnier blue top party, but you aped the invitation. I got there after developing reactions to bifacil, the neutrogena dupe, etc., etc. etc. Must have tried and ruled out 10. If you want to keep up with the DS and Asian stuff, you should check in on Isabella, Musings of a Muse.
My skin tone/coloring: fair, cool
Favorite look you wore: I was away for 2 days and took minimal “stuff” but was pleased with the way I looked using only 2 shades from Smashbox Minimalist palette. I took a MAC sample jar with 2 squirts of Dior Forever Foundation (it was more than enough for the 2 days). I used Tarte Natural Beauty blush, which I’d put aside for ages, and MAC Craving lipstick
Most used product of the week: Sephora Cappuccino liner, IT Bye Bye Undereye concealer
Any new beauty discoveries: none that I can think of, except my new Lise Watier shadow, which I don’t really think of as “a discovery” – just a new purchase.
My skin tone/coloring: Light medium, yellow undertones. Dark brown hair & eyes.
Favorite look you wore: Very minimalist for me – ABH stick foundation base with a tiny bit of liquid highlighter buffed in while blending, a very simple metallic bronzy copper on lid and peachy matte in crease eye look, all shades from the Too Faced Sugar Peach palette (also used for eyes) blended on cheeks and a tinted peach lip balm. I don’t think I even bothered with mascara either…
Most used product of the week: Clinique Moisture Surge 72hr gel cream moisturiser.
Any new beauty discoveries: I bought a face baking oil to use on my cuticles – it’s really lovely. Nice and lemony and about half the price of Burt’s Bees.
