Smoke and Shimmer

Hey everyone!

For this week's makeup look I wanted to do a smoky eye with a beautiful shadow I got from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics.  Not only is OCC famous for their incredible Lip Tars, their shadows are absolutely amazing.  I've never been disappointed :-)

The color I chose is Technoir and it is a stunning multi-dimensional blue that I am in love with!  
I don't know what it is with me and blue shadows, but I adore them ♥

I also used a newly purchased OCC Lip Tar in Lydia.  This will now be my new daily-wear Lip Tar.
It's my favorite (at the moment). :-)

Check it out! I hope you like it!




The Tools:



I also got a little help from my good friend :-)

 EYES:

♥ UDPP
♥ Ulta Shadow in Naked from brow to crease
♥ Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Slate to lid
♥ OCC Technoir to lid and lower lash line
♥ Urban Decay Shadow in YDK to crease
♥ Urban Decay Shadow in Chopper to blend YDK up and out towards brow bone
 ♥ Sugarpill shadow in Lumi to inner corner
♥ Sugarpill Bulletproof to outer V and crease to add contour and dimension.
I also lined the outer edge of my lower lash line with this.
♥ Black eye liner to lash and water line
♥  Black mascara
♥ Red Cherry Lashes in 523's

BLUSH:

♥ Nyx Powder Blush in Mauve


LIPS:

♥ OCC Lip Tar in Lydia
(Isn't it pretty!?!)



Thank you so much for stopping by!  I truly love it when you do!
I hope you a wonderful and blessed week :-)
xoxo,
Colleen

    I've used the OCC pigments for years and always loved them, but I never got into the lip tars. However, that shade is beautiful, and I may have to revisit them.
