As I mentioned in a previous post my friend Gia returned from Australia this weekend. Last night I went to see her for the first time with our friend Lorraine and we ended up going out for a few drinks.
To be honest, it was getting late on by the time I started getting ready so everything was a bit rushed but despite this I think something went a bit wrong with the make up. Initially, I thought it clashed with my freshly dyed hair but I think it was maybe the base, the foundation doesn't seem quite right and I look really tired. If anyone can work it out please let me know!
This look is loosely based on Pixiwoo's Barry M tutorial - shameless copyright I know but I was dying to use the petrol blue dazzle dust but couldn't figure out the best way to wear it.
Because I was in a hurry I kept it as simple as possible:
FACE
Mac Strobe Cream (as primer, I have run out!!)
Mac Studio Fix Fluid in NC30 (have recently started using this again but still not sure it's right for me)
Barry M Natural Dazzle to contour and Nars Laguna to bronze
Mac Hello Kitty Blush in fun & games
Mac Redhead MSF to highlight
EYES
Illamasqua black medium pencil as base and to thinly line the eye
Barry M Dazzle Dust in Petrol Blue (think it's number 98)
Mac Solar Bits in Scatterrays in the corner of the eye (this was added after pics were taken - oops)
Illamasqua medium pencil in Debonair in the waterline
Chanel Exceptionelle Mascara
LIPS
Pink Zara lipliner
Mac Style warriors gloss in Fierce n Fabulous
So, there we have it. Oh, and does this constitute as an Outfit of the Day photo???
It was taken by accident as I tried to take a photo of Gia and I. I'm wearing my new topshop vest loosely tucked into bootleg jeans. I had black wedges on but i took them off for the photo so I would be the same height as Gia - she is just ickle!! Can you spot my weird feet - big toe smaller than the rest ... yup, I agree - revolting!!

Debonair looks GORGEOUS :o I can't spot what's wrong with the FOTD? Looking lovely :) x
ReplyDeleteI think you look stunning bird, the top photo kinda washed out your blush so maybe thats what your focusing on. Btw loving the lip gloss xox

ReplyDelete@brunette1652 Aw thank you! Yeah i get my hair coloured saffron mahogony its a l'oreal richesse colour. My natural hair colour is reddy auburn though so its the closest colour to my natural (which is now dull after years of abuse), it looks a better colour after a couple of weeks worth of washes! xx
