Looks - Naughty Nauticals Purple, Green, and Blue Oh My!

Ohh, a little overboard in this look. I’m probably heading up to my parents’ house, so I’ll end up wearing a different look there anyway! (I usually spend all day outside running around with my puppy, so minimal makeup is usually better!)

I used Lark About pigment (LE) on inner lid, Mutiny pigment (LE) on middle of lid, Bell Bottom Blue pigment (LE) on outer lid, Rite of Spring eyeshadow (LE) on inner lid, Juxt eyeshadow on middle of lid, Newly Minted eyeshadow on middle of lid, Freshwater eyeshadow on outer lid and crease, Juxt eyeshadow above crease, Phloof! eyeshadow on brow, Mutiny pigment (LE) on lower lash line, Graphblack technakohl on lower lash line, Blacktrack fluidline on upper lash line, and Plushlash mascara on lashes. I had Other Worldly blush (LE) on cheeks with Dior Amber Diamond Skin Shimmer on cheeks. I wore Fun Fun lipstick (LE) with Comet Blue dazzleglass (LE) and Ms. Fizz dazzleglass (LE).

** These are recommendations for dupes based on permanent colors available — may not necessarily be identical; they are the closest I can think of!

Lark About = Frozen White; Mutiny = Sky Blue (PRO); Bell Bottom Pigment = Naval, Deep Truth; Rite of Spring = Pink Opal; Other Worldly = Raizin; Fun Fun = Pervette; Comet Blue = Turquatic Glitter + gloss; Ms. Fizz = Flashmode (maybe)

Very cute look! I actually returned the Mutiny and Lovely Lily pigments. Mutiny was almost a silvery white on me and Lovely Lily was to light. I really wanted to like Mutiny, still trying to find an excuse to maybe pick one up again.

There is something about this look, especially in the last picture, that is so mesmerizing. It looks positively airbrushed, almost unreal! I almost have to do a double-take because I think my eyes are playing tricks on me. Does this sound like crazy talk? Bottom line: Stunning.

I have to say… Naughty Nauticals is probably the collection that creates the prettiest looks, IMO, that MAC has come out in the past twelve months. That last two you have done have been stunning, Christine! Thanks for posting these. Not only that, but I’ve seen completely different-looking looks done by Leesha with the same products, so this collection also seems to be extremely versatile. 😀 Can’t wait until my NN stuff arrives.

OMG! I did practically the same look this morning too! I used Mutiny as a base, with Seedy Pearl on the inner lid, mutiny on the middle of the lid, Bell Bottom Blue on the outer lid, and Submarine on the outer lid and crease, fading up to Hoppin’ on the browbone.

It was WAY bright! I loved it artistically, but I didn’t think it was going to work for a lazy Sunday and dinner with my parents. ^_^;;; So I washed it off. LOL! I never do that! I usually roll with whatever I do, but even my boyfriend was like, “It’s really pretty, but, we’re not really going out…”

LOL, I wiped it off and did a much subtler/softer Painterly paint pot base, mutiny on the inner lid, bell bottom on the middle of the lid, and Violet pig on the outer lid, with Pink Pearl in the crease (blended well) and then fading up into Lovely Lily pig on the brow bone. And purple liner. Much more subtle.

But as usual, I love this look on you! I love playing with makeup, and I rarely worry about leaving the house in it. It’s funny you did the same thing as me. “It’s beautiful, but hmm, I have to see my parents, so…” XD

this is so gorgeous! the way the NN pigments photograph are unbelievable, so shimmery.
and i looooooooooooove (x3!) the lips. what collection is Fun Fun from? it seems like the blue-toned light pink that i’ve been looking for. pervette looks pretty too but a little darker and glazes don’t seem to last as long on my lips. the dazzleglass on top looks amazing!

Thanks, Davina! I agree, the Naughty Nautical pigments are gorgeous and look like it.

Hm, I can’t remember where Fun Fun was from. It was post-Barbie, because I think people were saying it was similar to Real Doll (it is, but I think it has more purple in it than Real Doll, which is very pink).

The first thing I thought of when I saw this look is – MERMAID!! Seriously – if there were such things as mermaids, I bet this is the kind of make up they would wear 😉

Love the eyes!

Hi – this looks totally gorgeous on you!!
Can I just ask, what is the light shimmery-purple shade that you have used on the inner corner of the eye and right at the top under your eyebrow?
Sorry lol I just can’t work it out from the description – just me being stupid lol!
Thanks again xxxx
