Look: MAC Freelance Work - Solar Bits Love
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bronze, Brown, Gold, Looks, MAC, Smokey
I worked again for MAC a couple weeks ago. It was some freelance hours, and I’m really happy they called me. It was a lot of fun! I sold stuff (of course) and did a few make-overs, one on a girl going to an Indian Wedding :-) She liked her look so that made me happy! This look was one I particularly like, and I actually had several customers asking what products I was wearing because they really liked the “foil” look that the Solar Bits gave it. I hooked ‘em up :-) And of course, I didn’t let them get the Solar Bits without getting at least one Paint Pot…because really it would just be irresponsible of me to let them try to do a look without one, right?! Hmmm, so that gets me thinking…what do YOU all use as an eyeshadow primer/base?? What works best for you?
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Indian Wood PP (base), Scatterays Solar Bits (inner lid), Impassioned Solar Bits (outer lid), Carbon (crease), Creme de Miel (highlight), Smolder Kohl (liner), Plushlash mascara
- Cheeks: Honey Light + Margin
- Lips: Most Wanted slimshine + Style Warrior lipglass

July 13th, 2009 at 4:09 PMI’ve been wanting to try to paint pots but can’t settle on a color other than purple or brown. (Awww pooh) I want to try something different to make my eyes appear sexier. Any suggestions?

Didn’t use anything?! What?! Travesty! I hope you like TFSI. I’ve used it before and it’s nice.

Does using concealer count?!? lol Today is the first day using the product. It does really help seal that color in. I’m glad that I bought it.

No, concealer doesn’t count! :-P I’m so glad you’re seeing the benefits of a good e/s primer :-)
