Thanks, Arielle!
Hi Christine,
Is the pigment’s lasting power longer when applied wet? Thanks!
Hey Betty! Not just applied wet, but when applied with the mixing medium (which is liquid, so yes, then it’s wet), because the mixing medium has glycerin in it, which is a binding ingredient – that’s what makes it last all day!
Upclose the look seemed overwhelming at first but when you showed your entire face it looks really pretty and it suits you well…can’t wait to try this look myself!
I’m a sucker for substitutes so may I ask what could replace Going Bananas? I don’t have Chrome Yellow as well. I plan to substitute eyepopping for bitter and wondergrass for swimming (hope the look will still be similar to this). Also, I followed your recipe for the mixing medium and I’m wondering what could be its other uses aside from just mixing it with pigments? Can it be used as a lid primer where I brush the mixing medium by itself on my lids before applying e/s, or sprayed on my face before applying foundation, etc? I kinda made like a whole bottle of it lol. Thanks!
Thanks, Janis! I know bold eyes can be scary, but they really can work 😉 I know you mentioned Bright Sunshine in another comment, so I would go with that for a substitute for Goin’ Bananas. Eyepopping would work for Bitter, and so would Wondergrass for Swimming. 🙂
You acn use it for making your own liner as well. I wouldn’t really use it as a lid or face primer! The stuff lasts forever, though. The bottle they sell at MAC PRO is HUGE!
that looks great on you! the colors blended well. the yellow, green and blue.. looks just like a fairy make up! that’s what i’ve been looking for! thanks for the tips.
Thanks Bev! 🙂 I’m happy to help!
What mascara did you use!!!! It looks amazing!!!
I have no idea, unfortunately! This look was so long ago! Probably Telescopic by L’Oreal or CoverGirl’s LastExact!
Awesome! thank you! What was your youtube name again?
