I started off with a base of Le Metier de Beaute Dualistic pencil in Champagne smudged over the mobile lid. Despite the name, this is a lovely matte taupe colour. I find it lacks definition as a liner but it's excellent used like a paint pot. I patted Style Snob on top of the Champagne base, blended out at the crease and then pushed Club along the lashline, concentrating on the outer third of my eye.
Apologies in advance for the hair band. I'm dithering over whether to stick or twist with the short hair. As much as I love short hair, I don't love regular trips to the hairdressers...

this is such a lovely look, I really love the blusher x
ReplyDeleteThanks Trona. I really love the blusher from the Hourglass duo and I've been wearing it paired with Coy lipgloss a lot recently.
DeleteYou look lovely, really nice how the shadows have been blended xx
ReplyDeleteI take this a huge compliment Replica, I always think I'm too sloppy with my blending xx
DeleteStyle Snob is one of my favorite eyeshadows. It is the only shadow I've ever used up in the last few years and my second one has a huge hole in it. I never thought to pair it with Club but I will now!!
ReplyDeleteI am really impressed that you've worked through almost two pans Marcia. That's love indeed when you a hefty rotation of eyeshadows. This is one I really wish they would re-release!
Deleteyou look great <3 I especially love the hourglass blush and bronzer duo on you / Claire xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Claire :) x
DeleteWhat a wonderfully fresh yet polished look. I don't have the 2 MAC eyeshadows you used, but I have everything else (plus plenty of taupe shadow options) so I'm going to try to recreate your look. Thanks for the inspiration. You look lovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sam, how did you get on with your recreation? I'd love to know which taupe you opted for!
DeleteI ended up trying this twice--the first time with Kjaer Weis Wisdom, the second with RBR Solstice H. Both shadows worked well. The big difference for me was a change in blush: while I loved the look of the Hourglass duo on you, it didn't look as nice one me. So the second time I recreated your look I used RBR Gracilis instead (which I bought based on your helpful advice; it's wonderful.). Thanks again for the inspiration!
DeleteOh, that sounds lovely Sam. I do love Gracilis and I'm really pleased to hear you like it too. Thanks to you, I will be getting Kjaer Weis Wisdom out tomorrow :D
