Inspired


Hi! 

So as the title of this post indicates, this look was "inspired" by the Jasmine collection at Sephora, I haven' seen it yet (it should be available starting this month on the e-shop in France) but this was mostly inspired by the promotional video and some screen captures that I've seen.

The colours mostly used for these looks are black and gold, there are also touches of blue, green, purple and coral. But the overall look is mostly dark.
I wouldn't go to work like this ^^ so this is a "milder" version of it.










Products used:
Face:
The Body Shop Tea Tree Pore Minimiser
Mac Mineralize Charged water moisture gel
The body shop concealer pencil in shade 06

Eyes:
Elf shadow primer
NYX Jumbo Pencils in Milk and Yoghurt
The Coral Shadow from my Wet'n Wild Palette in Walking on Eggshells and the black from my Naked Palette 2
The colour in the inner corner of my eyes is the gold from my Clinique All in One Palette
Clinique Mascara

Lips:
Astor Liquid care in Gorgeous Fuschia

So that's it for now, more coming soon. I will do a look that is darker and more bold, with more colours because I have to admit that I'm not entirely satisfied with this one
See you! Bye!

Looks and looks and more looks (yes, I have a hard time comming up with titles ^^)

Hi again! 
I hope you are all keeping well and that you started off your week on an optimistic note, it always helps.
So today I'm gonna post a few makeup looks that I did during my absence and that I didn't post, I have a lot of catching up to do so I'm working on it.

I haven't been doing anything extraordinarily bold or out of the ordinary, just trying to switch it up a bit and keep it interesting.
I hope you'll like it.







Products used:
The Body Shop Tea Tree Pore Minimiser
Mac Mineralize Charged water moisture gel
The body shop concealer pencil in shade 06 
the Palette I got from my international Swap with Jeanette (clic clic to see what I got)
my Kiko Gel liner in Black
and Kiko Cosmetics waterproof eyeliner in Blue (it stayed there until I removed it with the Sephora Waterproof eye makeup remover)!!!
And I'm wearing Maybelline Volum' Express Falsies in Black (whatever, I prefer They're Real)






Products used:
As usual these days:
On my face:The Body Shop Tea Tree Pore Minimiser
Mac Mineralize Charged water moisture gel
The body shop concealer pencil in shade 06
On my eyes I used ELF shadow Primer
on the crease I have something that is not a shadow but I love this colour for this, it's the Urban Decay Baked Bronzer in shade Toasted (this was given to me by Aurélie my photographer friend and I've been in love with it ever since).
on my inner lid I have Mac Bare Study paint pot thinly applied
and over it I put some pigments from the mac Aloha crushed Metallic Pigments in Lantern Light
In the corner I just left the Paint pot colour only for that gradient effect

in the outer corner I applied Maybelline colour tattoo in purple and added some purple shadow from the Frontcover palette in Ocean, then I lined the outer corner of my eyes with a purple Shadow pencil that I got as a gift from an Ebay seller that I regularly buy from, I'll write a post and post swatches of the pencils they're quite vibrant and longlasting too. They look like this: 
My mascara is Clinique volumising mascara in black, I love the fact that it doesn't dry up and get your lashes stiff. I even curled them wearing this.



In this picture I'm just wearing some Sephora Mattifying powder in shade D35,
A dark brown Miss Helen Brow pencil
Sephora Dark Blue liquid Eyeliner (I put some on my lashes too, that's what happens when I curl them before applying eyeliner)
And Sephora chubby stick Watterproof eyeliner in Turquoise on my bottom lashline

 So that's it for now, I will post about these eyeliners in detail with swatches and show you what I bought when I got these, and where too... 




Until next time, See you, Bye!
