Looks - Black Ore Solar Bits Overlayed with Blues
I had all these expectations for this look, but it didn’t quite turn out how I expected it to! I actually wasn’t feeling it, so I ended up removing the eye makeup and doing something else, lol. Have you ever done that? I always think, “What a waste [of makeup]!”
I used Black Ore solar bits (LE) on lid, Gorgeous Gold eyeshadow on inner lid, Stars ‘n Rockets eyeshadow on middle of lid, Shimmermoss eyeshadow on outer lid, Freshwater eyeshadow on outer lid, Electric Eel eyeshadow on outer lid, Deep Truth eyeshadow on outer crease, Gorgeous Gold eyeshadow on inner crease, Femme-fi eyeshadow (LE) on brow and above crease, Graphblack technakohl on lower lash line, and Plushlash mascara on lashes. I had Lilicent blushcreme with Sunbasque blush on cheeks. I wore Tiger Tiger lipstick (LE) with Supreme lipglass (LE) on my lips.

Black Ore = Dark Soul + Golden Lemon; Femme-fi = Shroom; Tiger Tiger = Brew; Supreme = Chai
I actually LOVE it. I think it really suits your skin tone. The lips are so hot!
Thanks so much, Kristy! 🙂
omg this is beautiful!!
Thank you, Vivien!
I love it! The lip color is really beautiful. What LE’s were Tiger Tiger and Supreme from?
Supreme’s from Neo Sci Fi
Thank you so much, Meesh! Tiger Tiger was from Raquel Welch, and Supreme is from Neo Sci Fi.
your the best christine!!! this look rocks my socks!!! lol
your lip color is amazing!!!!
I also hate when I waste good make-up lol
Thank you so much, Lala!!
It’s sooo frustrating!
You look great, as always.
Thank you, Sadie! 🙂
OMG that was really really pretty!! I too hate when something doesn’t go how I expect and it becomes a waste, but I hardly think this look was a waste!!
Thanks, Vanessa! LOL, well, just wiping it away, the makeup I used was wasted, y’know?
Hey Christine! I think this is a pretty look, but I kind of understand what you mean. I think that you could have created this look without the Black Ore Solar Bits. It’s a nice look nonetheless, though!
You definitely could have! I think it ended up being too muted for my liking!
do u no any good dupes for tiger tiger & surpreme ?
Tiger Tiger is similar to maybe Brew, though Tiger Tiger is creamier and has more peach to it. Maybe Peachstock!
Supreme is similar to Chai, from the permanent line.
I think this looks gorgeous Christine. A perfect going out eye.
Thanks, Jennifer! I think, after coming back to it, it was too muted compared to my “vision” of it, lol.
the ips are lovely and so are the eyes….
Thank you so much, Ruby! 🙂 Glad you liked it!
Omg thats one of the most beautiful looks I’ve ever seen. My new favorite from you!
Oh, wow, Ashlee! I’m so surprised. What was it that you liked the most?
The eyes. The colors are perfect its blended perfectly. I love everything about it 🙂
Well, thank you again, Ashlee 🙂
It’s super cute! I love it =)
I wanna post up pictures of looks, but I can’t seem to take the perfect eye picture like you! LOL
Thanks, Mai! LOL, it took me lots of practice, and of course, finally read my camera’s manual – then it all clicked!
GAWWWWWWWWD im TOTALLY FEELING LIKE I MYSELF ROCKING JUST STARIN UR MAKEUP,JUST IMAGINE WAT WUD HAPPEN TO ME IF I DID THE SAME LOOK!!!U NEVER KNOW!.
No Cristine,I never think bad after wasting like,i always tell myself,THATS OOOOOOOOK, GOD WILL GIMME MOREEEEEEEEEEEE!!nice idea na to calm myself?, 🙂
Zzainy…
Oh wow, thank you so much Zainy!! 🙂 I have PLENTY of makeup to waste, lol, I doubt I’ll ever run out!
I think its gorgeous! Really stunning!
Well, thank you so much, Calico!
beautiful blue!
you should definitely do it again!
Thank you!!
that lip combo is GORGEOUS!!! the whole look goes so well together!!
Thank you so much 😀 I did love the lips!
This looks beautiful. Geeze, you’re so talented.
I feel you when a look doesn’t come out the way you want it to. It’s annoying and a waste. great job!
Thank you sooo much!
It’s also VERY frustrating. It’s kind of like whenever I wanted to draw, it’d come out looking like a square, when I wanted a circle!
This is truly pretty. I am so glad I got Black Ore. Might need a back-up….
Thanks, Terri! What’s your favorite way to use Black Ore?
I can’t believe you didn’t quite like this look, I think it’s awesome!!!! Love, love, love it! I’d say it’s damn near perfect =) *at least for my taste*
Hey Claudia! Thanks so much 🙂 I don’t know what it was, but I just expected more OOMPH! – maybe more shimmer, brightness to the colors? I’m not usually thrown by a look SO much so that I take it off right away, lol. Even if I’m just so-so about it, I’m like eh! whatever!
This is freakin HOT, Christine!
So, I’m gonna return that RED top. Remember I wanted to wear it for my birthday? I kinda hate it. Now, I’m open to whatever look!
LOL
Thank you so much!! LOL, how funny. Now, the world is your oyster when it comes to looks!
Love this look, Christine 🙂 I know how you feel, though! I have started over many times before. <3
Thanks, Stacey!
Isn’t it frustrating? Grr!! Ah, well, at least I had TIME to re-do it 🙂
I really like the placement of the blue and gold in this look. I was really surprised to see you used Stars ‘n Rockets in this- I wouldn’t have known, but I can see a little glimmer of it in the full pic of you looking down.
It really is beautiful!!!
Thanks, Stephanie! It’s hard to see, unfortunately – I thought it’d pack more of a wallop!
Ack! This is BEAUTIFUL! I can’t believe you didn’t really like it! 😛 I love the placement of the colours as well as the combination of colours. Really awesome job, Christine. Even if you didn’t dig it, we all did! So it wasn’t a waste. 😉 But I know what you mean. I feel the same way when I do a look and it doesn’t turn out and I have to just take it off. Haha. MAC isn’t exactly cheap and a good thing to be wasting. 😛
Thank you, Skyler! I just wanted it to go on brighter? I don’t know! It just wasn’t what I saw in my head, LOL. Good thing I have a TON of MAC that I’ll never get through anyway, so I can waste it here and there!
Omg this is soo gorgeous!!! I really really want to get Black ore solar bits! It may be my first mac purchase 🙂 At least I hope so, I just need money first!
Thank you so much, Brittany! Let me know how you like Black Ore if you do end up getting it!
Christine,
You are way talented and it is an awesome look. But I think I get what you mean by you thought you would get more OOMPH! Like the colors you used would pop but in the end the Black ore solar bits were just a little too overpowering to really showcase the other colors. But you try which is totally cool and I know it inspires me. Thanks for showing the look!
Thanks, Stephanie! I guess so – it was like all the black of Black Ore soaked up the color, and it didn’t really show the cool reflects/gold from Black Ore either!
This looks amazing, like it took hours!!! I’m loving it! I was wondering if there’s any way you can do a tut on this look? I noticed you used several colors on the outer lid and I’m just wanting to get a visual of it. Keep on rockin’!!!!
Thank you, Chloe! LOL! I did a tut for you 🙂
OMG this is beautiful!! I absolutely love blues, lol
MMmm, maybe try black ore with greens or reds??
It might look really awesome with red!
Thanks!
I think this looks fabulous on you!! I can wait for Neo Sci-fi to come out in Aus.
Stef xx
Thanks, Stefanie! What are you hoping to pick up?
I think it’s beautiful..very sparkley. I’d almost say it might be fun to wear something like that to a club. I agree about that black ore looking great with reds or maybe even some sort of brighter purple. I don’t think you can still get black ore these days or I would stick it on my list.
Oh yeah, this is a clubbing look for sure, haha!
Thanks 🙂
