Style Snob and Smut!

This is another in my series of shop my stash looks. I started out by picking MAC Style Snob eyeshadow. This has been neglected a lot since I bought Rouge Bunny Rouge Solstice Halcyon. The colours are similar, as you can see from this post, but it does have quite a different finish. Style Snob is a Starflash finish eyeshadow and was released as part of the Love That Look collection. I believe this particular shade was extremely sought after and I was very lucky to pick it up in a forum sale.

Wearing it reminded me how pretty it is. It's quite sparkly and has small particles of peachy-gold glitter. I'm pleased I remembered not to apply my concealer until afterwards as I did experience some fallout. I applied Style Snob 3/4 of the way across the mobile lid, then applied MAC Relaxing (a similar toned but slightly lighter colour) to the inner 1/4. I used MAC Smut to define the crease a little and buffed out any hard edges with MAC Brule.

Lips

Guerlain Kiss Kiss lipstick in Beige Nude

I apologise for the sloppy lipstick application but this has been become a new favourite and I wanted to show it off. This lipstick is a lovely colour and it's so creamy, I'm hoping this is true for all the Kiss Kiss lipsticks? I really feel the texture is similar if not better than the YSL Rouge Volupte. I think I may need to try some more!

  1. That foundation looks really good,really natural. How are you liking the Too Faced SI compared to your MAC ?
    Love that lipstick on you, I'm sure thats the shade I wanted and got the SA to write down for me on my profile so I didn't forget to get it next time I did a haul :)

  3. I just love the word smut, it's so...'smutty' lol!

    Gorgeous look! That lippy looks really moisturising. Never tried a Guerlain lippie before, might have to go and have a look next time I pass one of their counters.

  5. Thanks Replica, I'm really pleased with this foundation. I think I might get a full bottle when it comes out. I would like to try the Guerlain on my face though for comparison.

    I need to start my Painterly vs TFSI experiment to see which works the best. I like the Painterly for evening out my lid colour though and TFSI isn't as good at that. I'm not sure if wearing both together will be too much. I need to find my most crease-y eyeshadows to give the TFSI a chance to shine!

    I love the lipstick, it was bought on sale though. Would that mean it's discontinued colour. It's shame if it is because I love the colour.

    Thank you Get Gawjus! I'm pleased with how it turned out and the lipstick is a winner for me.

    Hi Wedgie! Smut is such a good name! The Guerlain lipstick is a lush texture. I'm still kicking myself about not getting the one I spotted on sale in Debenhams a few weeks ago. I'm definitely on the look out for more.

    Hey Sadie! Thank you so much. I think I might invest in this foundation. It has a bit more coverage than my tinted moisturiser which is nice as the weather is definitely on the turn!

    Thank you for all the comments.
