The warmer season this year has found me drawn to soft peach, copper/bronze and pink shades.
Today's make up is a blend of gentle pink with a softly blended fuchsia.
I started with my make up revolution eye primer. You can see swatches of this and a full review here: Make Up Revolution Stay Don't Stray Primer and followed this up by blending NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk over the lids as an adhesive base.
Primer is so important because it locks in the eye make up and stops it from creasing, smudging and fading. Definitely a step you want to consider including in your make up application routine!
My lid colour is from one of MAC's limited edition releases. This is the Give Me Liberty Of London eyeshadow, a matte, muted, pink-peach hybrid. I contoured the crease and lower lash line of the eyes with Urban Decay's Fishnet from my custom palette (see more here Urban Decay + Smashbox Palettes Review With Swatches), which I thoroughly blended out for a softer finish.
I lined the eyes with my ultimate favourite liquid liner by Collection called Fast Stroke. Seriously, this stuff is amazing. I have used it for years now and it's never failed me.
My mascara is a new purchase I made recently. It's the latest Bourjois mascara called Volume 1 Seconde. Of course I was rather excited about its retro vintage floral packaging! A full review of this mascara is coming soon!
My base make up is MAC's Match Master foundation (review and swatches here: MAC Match Master SPF 15), set with Seventeen Stay Time powder.
I gave my brows definition and shape with the Maybelline Brow Satin pen. Let me know if you want a review of this!
My blush is Good Girl by Topshop. This is a very sugary, sweet, matte pink blush. It brightens the skin with a natural flush of colour.
Completed the look with Lime Crime Lipstick in D'Lilac. I am ADDICTED to purple lipstick, especially pastel lilac shades like this one!
Hope you enjoyed today's FOTD! What shades are you addicted to lately? Let me know!
