Look: Silver Smokey with Some Color

Heather — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 03:27:12 +0000

This is the look I used for my first tutorial. What I discovered is that it’s difficult to do a tutorial without deciding exactly what colors I wanted to use and without having a close-up mirror. It ended up being 25 minutes! So needless to say, I will have to do some major editing and cutting down. I talk too much lol! Also, I’ve never used any video editing software before, so we’ll see…it might not be posted for a while, but at least I’m getting started on it and I’m learning!

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Rondelle (inner lid), Silver Ring (middle lid), Typographic (outer lid & crease), Humid (upper crease), Deep Truth (crease), Vellum (highlight), UD 24/7 Dime (inner lashline), Feline Kohl Power (outer lashline & waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
Cheeks: Bobbi Brown Coral Shimmer Blush
Lips: Arbonne Echo

Funny story. So my DH (dear husband) and I were cooking dinner last night (using the microwave and the toaster oven lol) when all of a sudden the electricity in only the kitchen went out. No problem – I went to the circuit breaker and flipped some switches… well something went wrong and none of the lights that were connected to switches in the whole apartment worked! All of the plugs worked still though. So while getting ready with this look, the ONLY light I had was the little light around the mirror…so if this comes out not as good as some of my other looks, I apologize, but it was really hard to see lol :-)

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPPS (primer), Soft Ochre PP (base), MAC Holiday 2008 Classic Eyes Palette, YSL dark liquid liner (upper lashline), UD 24/7 Baked (waterline), Chanel Exceptionnel mascara
Cheeks: Tippy Beauty Powder Blush
Lips: Arbonne Prep & Plump Echo lipgloss

Look: Blue and White Smokey Eyes

Tonight I’m off to a dinner party for my best friend who’s in town from New York for a little while. This is the look I’m wearing. It looks a little better in person than it comes out in the pictures – it’s got more dimension than it shows. I’ll admit it’s a little OTT, but that’s just me :-) Anyway, the lips were inspired by a recent post from Temptalia where she shows lots of lip pictures, and it reminded me how much I love this lipstick!

For this look I used:

Eyes: UDPP as a primer and Delft Paint Pot as a base. Vellum on the inner lid, Crystal Avalanche on the middle center lid, Climate Blue on the upper part of the middle lid, Deep Truth in the outer crease, a touch of Freshwater in the crease, and Solar White to highlight the brow. For liner I used Penultimate liner on the upper lashline, UD 24/7 in Deviant on the lower lashline, and Mystery Kohl Power on my waterline. Finished the eye with Buxom Lash Mascara.
Cheeks: Pleasantry Mineralize Blush and Laura Mercier Shimmer Bloc in Orchid Mosaic
Lips: Sci-Fidelity lipstick topped with Soft & Slow lipglass
