Some Not Very Clear Pics of my Christmas Look





Ok, so better late than never, I finally got the software for my camera uploaded onto here, which means I can get pictures on here. Anyway, here are some pics of me on Christmas day. Unfortunately this doesn't look as bright as it did on the day on the pics - must have been the lighting or something. I didn't think to take any close ups of my eyes either :-(
I did this look using the urban decay book of shadows palette...
The steps as follows...
1. Apply concealer and blend on prepped skin, then used a 187 brush to apply Mac Studio Tech foundation in NC20.
2. Applied UDPP to eyelids and blend out. Apply a little under eye lid as well.
3. Pack on the shade 'Absinthe' from palette over lid up to crease, blending slightly upwards and outwards.
4. Apply the shade 'Protest' from the palette to outer crease and blend using a window wiper motion and a decent blender brush.
5. Use a very small brush to pack the shade 'shattered' on the inner corner and bring slightly underneath eye, about a third of the way across the lower lid.
6. Use shades 'goddess' and a TINY amount of 'perversion' for 'outer V' to add a little more depth to the crease.
7. Use a liner brush to apply 'absinthe' across lower lash line, blending in with the 'shattered' in the inner part of the lash line.
8. Apply 'protest' to the outer third of the lower lash line. Make sure the colours on the lower lash line are blended well. It should look like a series of green shades going into a lighter blue-green. Line upper lash line with a fine line of black kohl or fluid liner. Line the water line in black.
9. Lots of mascara...
10. Apply a pinky creme blush (I used MAC's 'Lilicent' using a 188 brush)
11. Set foundation with your choice of powder (I used MSF Natural in light/medium)
12. Apply nude lip gloss of your choice (I have so many I can't remember what I used, but it was a peachy nude...)
That was it really. It did look much more vibrant in real life though! Hope you like! xxx

Hi Happy1234,

The book of shadows is great if you like slightly shimmery and sparkly looks. The colour range is good so you can create lots of different looks, and they are very well pigmented and easy to blend... You also get a little pot of UDPP and two brushes. I think the brushes are OK, but other people hate them...
