For a long time, I resisted buying an eyeshadow anything...duo, trio, quad, palette...because I had so many! Now, I admit, I have not been as consistent as I ought. I have managed to slip up a couple of times. But the horrid thing is that now my lip color collection is slowly creeping up to my eyeshadow collection. My latest crime spree occurred when I went to Sephora.com's sale page and reintroduced myself to OCC Lip Tars. To add insult to cosmetic injury, I very recently went to my local Sephora to purchase two more Lip Tars, this time from their luscious Fall 2014 Collection Unknown Pleasures. So, I created a look using a neutral eye to showcase this BAM! lip.
To create the neutral eye, I used my Maybelline New York The Nudes Palette. I took a frosty taupe (bottom row, next to the last) in the inner corner and around the tear duct. The remainder of the lid took a slightly darker taupe (top row, second shadow) and applied it generously. In the lid, I layered. I began with the dark brown (last one, top row), and over that another dark brown warmed it up (bottom row, fourth shadow), and for smoke, I took the black (bottom row, last shadow) to the outer corners. On the top lid, Wet 'n' Wild gel liner was smudged and my favorite 747 M lashes were applied. Black kohl liner was used on the lower waterline and Lancome Liner Design gel liner in Emerald Seductive gave a pop of color.
For the lips, I lined with a black shadow pencil and filled my lips with OCC lip Tar in Pagan, a gloriously deep eggplant purple. Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Minty Kiss added glossy shine.
I am LOVING new Urban Decay Naked Illuminated highlighter in Luminous! It is a champagne colored powder with an amazing sparkle. Just gorgeous for face and eyes.
Thanks for joining me! I adore this look for day and it was so easy to do! I hope you like it. Leave me a comment and don't forget to share some of your favorite potent lip colors. Would love to hear your faves. Stay blessed and Color Elated.
