FOTD: 12/08/10

First of all, congratulations to Sa who won the Sleek Circus palette! I hope you are enjoying it!

So, I couldn't resist having a play with my new Laura Geller stuff this morning. I was very boring and applied it as suggested in the instruction booklet. It was too early in the morning to get creative! I did apply the shadow over Pixie Epoxy which really intensified it. I will be reviewing the kit before long, just give me time to play a bit first!


I used:
*-Bee Luscious Pore Perfecting Primer
-Laura Geller Banish & Brighten "Fair/Light"
-Laura Geller Balance & Brighten "Fair"
-Laura Geller Blush & Brighten "Sateen Subtle Berry" (darker side of duo)

-Urban Decay Primer Potion
-Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
-Laura Geller Baked Sateen Eyeshadow "Fresco Pink" (pink side) - over lid
-Laura Geller Eye Rimz "Mystic Sea" (dark blue side) - wet as liner
-I-Care Eye Pencil "Bone" - waterline
*-Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara "Black"

*-Sleek MakeUp Pout Polish "Perfect Plum"

Even though this is a very toned down look for me (let's face it, even my neutrals aren't exactly toned down), I am loving it! The pink shadow was a surprise. I thought it'd be the one product out of the kit I wouldn't use (the blue side would get plenty of use, of course!) but it's lovely! The Pixie Epoxy has bought out a very subtle blue shimmer which I can't see in the pan. I wasn't expecting the Balance & Brighten to be such a good match but it's pretty perfect. I'm not too fussed over the Banish & Brighten but the metal tip feels lovely over the eyes in the morning.

Once I've used everything a bit more then I'll do a review. I might record a tutorial showing how to get the suggested look if you're interested.

  2. When I first saw the close up I thought you had used this product as it looks quite like it. The rimmel product is a great substitute when you only have 30 seconds to get colour on.

    I really like the blending you did on this one. Did it take a long time or not? Would love to see a very natural blending video like this.

    I like the subtle look on you.
