Fruity Juicy Smokey!
About this Look
Had a lot of fun putting this look together using primarily items from my recent MAC Fruity Juicy haul! Knew that I had been itching to do use the Fruit A La La palette in a red themed smokey eye from the moment I first saw that palette, so here goes.
Step-by-Step Guide
- Eyes: After applying UDPP Eden, I then went to work with the Fruit A La La 6-pan palette as follows; Glamour Light browbone, Soleil, So Lovely as a veil of transition, Carnal Charm built up into crease and blown upwards, ¡Arriba! on lid & inner lower lashline, Cocktail Black to cut crease and blown upwards into Carnal Charm, Fuchsia Fury outer lid & lower outer lashline, MUFE ME512 inner corners, MJ Blaquer Highliner to tightline upper lashline & lower outer lashline, curled lashes, Essence Midnight In Paris Gel Liner for wings, Maybelline Full& Soft Waterproof Mascara, plus MAC Well-Toned mascara that I bought on clearance (forgot about that).
- Cheeks: MAC OhMy, Passion Pearlmate Powder as blush, UD Basquiat Jawbone for bronzer, Now's The Time for a bit of highlighter.
- Lips: Nyx Ever Slim Lip Pencil to mute my lips natural purplish tones, Earth Tone to define edges. Then, MAC Shy Girl lipstick, which I love more than I thought I would!
- Skin: After applying all my usual daytime skincare & primer, I mixed 1 part MJ Dew You? with 3 parts Lancôme Teint Idole 24H Foundation & applied via foundation brush. Love how glowy & healthy this makes my skin look! Very impressed with both of these products lately.

Nancy I love it! How do you like the collection?
Brenda, I’m sorry I didn’t come back and look to see if there were any comments or questions! Yes, I am in love with this particular collection! It’s probably my favorite that MAC has done in a long time, barring the Selena collection.
This is very beautiful Nancy!
Nancy — really lovely. Your skin glows! Am going to give the MJ Dew You a try.
This looks suits you so nicely! ?
Love how it makes you eyes pop.
I love this! You have such beautiful eyes, Nancy!
Beautiful look! Your eyebrows are divine!
As always–you look absolutely stunning, Nancy!
I love everything about this look. I’ve been the fence about the MJ Dew You, but after seeing it on you I REALLY want it now even though I own Becca SSP in the liquid form in Opal.
You’re also making me want to purchase all of the MAC LE products you used. I need MAC to sell out of everything so I am no longer tempted–lol!!!
I seriously look forward to viewing the looks that you post, and thanks so much for providing the “step-by-steps”.
Oh my goodness! Thank you so much everyone! I’m floored and humbled by the response to this look, truly! ?
Hey Nancy! I love this look on you. It is very youthful and pretty. I really want to try it. We have similar eye colour, what is your skin tone? I have the Fruit La La and Oh my passion but not really experimented yet, but now I’m inspired to, and now need to get Shy girl. Thanks for a gorgeous look. So refreshing to see us more mature ladies showing some stunning looks! x
