Shimmering Green and Bright Coral Lips

I know I'm wayyyy late for St. Patrick's Day, but I did a quick green look the other day! As you probably know from reading my blog I am completely obsessed with olive greens! I always like pairing greens with coral or peachy lips--Mac Vegas Volt is the perfect coral lip color now that the warmer weather is coming! I'll have to do a separate post on it soon because I love it so much!

    Pretty look; Smut blends so well with that gorgeous Inglot color! I also love VV, but it looks a bit garish on me - are you toning it down with that lipgloss or is it just the photos making it seem a lot more easy to wear? Your brows look perfect, btw. Are you keen to try the new Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil?

    Thanks so much Sarah! Yeah the lipgloss is definitely toning it down a bit and adding a touch of pink... along with my poor camera lol! It's a bit brighter in real life but not too much more! I definitely need to blot it down or put lipgloss over it since it is so bright!
    Oooh new milk chocolate soleil!? I need to do some googling!

Bronze Eyeshadow Swatches: Mac Tempting, Urban Decay Smog, Nars Kalahari, & Inglot

Image
If I had to choose a favorite eyeshadow color to use, my favorite would most definitely be a shimmery bronzey brown. Call me boring when there are so many vibrant colors to choose from, but I can't help it! I absolutely love a shimmery chocolate smokey eye more than anything else. I think brown is flattering on all eye colors and it can be made subtle enough for daytime or dramatic for evening. I just hit pan on two bronze colors in my eyeshadow collection so I thought I'd do some comparison swatches for you before I finish them up! Inglot 409 on the left, Nars Kalahari on the top, Urban Decay Smog in the middle and Mac Tempting (with the huge bit of pan showing!) on the right! Comparison swatches! L-R Inglot 409, Urban Decay Smog, Mac Tempting, Nars Kalahari From Left to right: Inglot 409 pearl: This bronze has a bit more red warmth to it, especially compared to Urban Decay Smog and is a bit darker--though I do think it's similar on the lid. Both 409 and...

Updated Inglot Eyeshadow Swatches!

Image
Hey all! I've gotten a lot of requests asking for an updated post of my Inglot eyeshadows. I first posted about them last year after discovering how much I love them and how affordable they were for such a quality eyeshadow. After all this time, they are still one of my favorite eyeshadow formulas and I probably use at least one or two of them in each look I do. Since my first post, I have accumulated two more palettes so there are a bunch of new colors that I swatched (along with repeats from last year's post). If you'd like to read more about Inglot and the various eyeshadow formulas, please take a look at my original post HERE ! Let's jump into it!  I posted my swatches from left to right, top row first then the bottom! For quick reference, the finishes are as follows: P = Pearl, M = Matte, Double Sparkle = DS, Advanced Makeup Component = AMC, & lastly, AMC Shine  Again take a look at my first post  here  for more in-depth descriptions. ...
