I just gotta say that I absolutely LOVE the promo picture for this collection! I love everything about it. Look at the rings and the nails and the car and her eyebrows and the blue above her eyebrows ah! Everything about it is so cool. The makeup in the picture reminds me a lot of the Dior spring/summer 2011 runway makeup they did. 

I saw the collection promo on Temptalia this morning, not too sure how the eyeshadows will come out but I will probably pass on them. It seems like I already have a lot like the ones in the pictures (plus I bought almost half of the Peacocky eyeshadows earlier this year). 


I want this picture blown up to put on my wall as a poster. Speaking of posters, do you remember the MAC Red She Said promo picture? I'll put it below, it was so gorgeous and I BEGGED the people at the MAC counter to give me one when the collection was over but they said they were not allowed. Grr. Anyways, I love photos like this. 

Here's the Red She Said one:

It almost looks like the same model in both...
OH AND REMEMBER THE NAUGHTY NAUTICALS COLLECTION? This was a bit before I got into makeup but I just remember passing by the store and swooning over the promo picture for that one too! Here it is:

Today I did a bright matte green look. I love green eyeshadow and this look was really fun to wear out as I went about my day. I took pictures of different lip combinations to show how it can go with different lip colours. I didn't wear anything on my face with this look as I'm a bit more tanned than usual anyways, plus it's still really hot out and I hate not being able to wipe my face with a cool cloth in the heat ha ha. Anyways here's the look, I hope you like it:



This was taken on my computer since my "good" camera was dead. The pictures below don't show the true colours that well, but this shows the brightness of the colours more true to life.

Urban Decay Primer Potion (primer)
Makeup Forever Flash Color in white (white cream base for matte shadows)
MAC Bitter (all over eyelid as a main color)
MAC Ego e/s  (lightly blended in corner and crease, as a base to blend the darker shadows)
MAC Sassy Grass (outer 1/3 of eyelind)
MAC Swimming mixed with MAC Sweet'n'Punchy (to blend Sassy Grass in with the rest of the bitter
MAC Plumage (outer corner and crease)
MAC Bitter and Chrome Yellow (to blend above crease)
MAC Chrome Yellow (inner 1/4 of the lid)
MAC Vanilla e/s (tear duct)
MAC Teal pigment (lower lashline)
MAC Sweet'n'Punch (inner 1/2 lower lashline) 

Uh, wow... I didnt' think I used that much stuff! Ha ha ha. The lip options are written below: 

Pink option: MAC Lovelorn lipstick

Peach: NARS Niagra lipstick, MAC Enchantress lipglass on top 
(this is the one I wore with the look today)

Bright Coral: Makeup Forever Aqua lip pencil 18C, Revlon Color Burst lipgloss Papaya

Fuscia: MAC Full Fuscia lipstick, MAC Funtabulous dazzleglass


How do you prefer to wear green eyeshadows? 

Thanks for looking!
