A few days ago I received my order from Smashbox. Although I only ordered one of their lipsticks in Nude, I was excited about the free gift of the Brow Tech & Cream Eye Liner Palette. The size of the palette is credit card size...so it's a perfect travel size. It includes brow wax and three shades of brow powder: taupe, brunette, and blonde. The cream eye liners come in: image (a beautiful shimmering khaki color), thunder (a smokey grey), putty (a muddy brown), caviar (black), picasso (a navy blue), and midnight brown. Can't wait to give them a try and although the size was a bit shocking...free is always good.
I decided to do a look that was inspired by a sweater I was wearing...deep brick red and black.
Here's what I used.
Face
I didn't feel like using any primer...just Dove moisturizer
Mac Studio Fix Powder Foundation in C40
Mac Soft and Gentle MSF
Eyes
Two Faced Shadow Insurance
Mac Rubenseque Paint Pot
Vanilla
Antiqued
Deep Damson (also used this under the eye with some Carbon from the mid lower lid to the edge, and Sweet Lust under the eye from inner corner to mid lower lid)
Carbon (to deepen the crease color)
Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Zero
Cheeks
Coastal Scents Blush (the brightest orange from their palette)
Lips
Smashbox lipstick in Nude and a random brown liner (just to tone down the nude color)
I'm off to set up for a bridal consultation in the morning using my new airbrush system. Wish me luck!
