Brilliant Blue

Hey Everyone!

For this week's makeup look I wanted to do something glam, bold, and relatively easy to do :-)

Hey, I realize that not all my readers have a lot of time to glam up, or may not be comfortable with contouring, blending, WHATEVER.
We all have different skill levels when it comes to makeup, so I say whatever works for you is best!

Also, I wanted to play with my favorite indie brand of mineral makeup (Rose Marie Shadows) since I had such a terrible time with a different brand a couple of weeks ago.  :-(
I had a ton of colors to choose from, but I kept going back to ONE over and over!

I chose a breathtaking blue with incredible richness and dimension. It's called Abyss and it's STUNNING.

I hope you like it!

The Tools:

The lashes I selected are Red Cherry 41's and they are a wispy pair with a lower layer to them. Awesome. :-)

 EYES:

♥ UDPP

♥ Ulta Shadow in Naked from brow bone to crease

♥ Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Steel to lid and lower lash line

♥ Rose Marie Shadow in Abyss to lid up to crease, and also on lower lash line

♥ Rose Marie Shadow in Illusion to crease, blended up and out towards brow bone

♥ Black eyeliner to lash and water line

♥ Black mascara

♥ *optional* I added a clear gem to the center of my lower lash line, 

but it did not photograph very well.

In natural light in was adorable :-) 

BLUSH & CONTOUR:

♥ Ulta Powder Blush in Adore applied to apples of cheeks

♥ Coastal Scents Contour Palette: 

Dark brown shade used to contour cheek bones, temples, nose, and jaw.

White shade used to highlight center of forehead, under eyes, tip of nose, and chin. 

 

LIPS:

♥ Nyx Round Lipstick in Ceto

♥ Nyx Round Lip Gloss in Kiss

Thanks so much for stopping by! I truly love it when you do! 

I hope you have a great week!

xoxo,
Colleen

P.S.  Stay tuned...  I've been working on a huge project, and there will be more info coming up on that soon!

Best wishes!
