My Face of the Day for today, but after about six hours of wear, because that was the only time I thought to take photographs. I used just a few products (which I will post a picture of below). Even though the makeup’s slightly faded, I think you can still kind of see where I wanted to go with it.
I used the Laura Mercier Artist’s Palette for Eyes (review and swatches here). After priming my lids with Etude House Proof 10 Eye Primer, I started with colors! In terms of “simple diagramming,” I used a light taupe-y color as a lid wash (Sable), a dark chocolate brown for the outer “v” (Chocolate), and a bit of a lavender grey (Plum Smoke) on the outer crease. A light matte cream (Vanilla Nuts) was used for a highlight on the browbones.
I don’t usually use eyeliner, so as you can see I fudged up on one eye! But, in case you care, I used K-Palette 24H Real Lasting Eyeliner, which is awesome for people who suck at liquid liners, like me. For my brows, I used K-Palette 24H Real Lasting Eyebrow Liner (01), which I currently love.
Cheeks are colored~ with Shiseido Luminizing Satin Face Color (RS302/Tea Rose), with a bit of a highlight from Benefit Watt’s Up!, also used as a highlight for light nose contouring, just be cause I felt like it. Nose contouring was done with the lighter color from The Body Shop Brow and Liner Kit (02) and a fluffy brush!
On the lips is Guerlain Rouge G L’Extrait (Avarice), which is a new lovely everyday color. ❤
Here are the products, minus the K-Palette 0 Kuma Cover Control Concealer, which I absolutely love as well. The complete list of products as follows:
- Laura Mercier Artist’s Palette for Eyes
- Benefit Watt’s Up!
