EOTD: Naked and Neve Cosmetics

Yesterday I was inspired to use one of my Naked Cosmetics colours. I (shamefully) have a number of their collections and I rarely dip into them! This EOTD features colour #3 from their Mother Nature collection. 

Yesterday I also learned how to properly stack false lashes, so I wanted to try that out too! :)

Here was the result!

Products used:

• Tarte CC Eye Primer
• Barry M Eyeliner Kohl in Black
• Neve Cosmetics in Butterfly, Bonbon and Magma in the crease
• Inglot 329 on the outer portion of the lid and to smoke out the black liner on the lower lash line
• Naked Cosmetics #3 from their Mother Nature collection on the majority of the lid
• Neve Cosmetics Etoile in the duct
• Gabriel Color eyeshadow in Bone below the eyebrow
• NYX Auto Eyebrow Pencil in Dark Brown (I usually don't use this and this reminded me why!)
• Tarte CC Tinted Eyebrow Gel in Medium Dark
• Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara
• Ardell #109 stacked with Quo #801

Now I want to stack ALLLLLLLLL of my lashes!  Holy smokes!

Tutorial: Sugarpill and Neve Cosmetics

Hi, hello!

What do we have here?  A TUTORIAL?!  Holy smokes.  It's been a LONNNNNG time since I've made one of these!  Forgive me if I am a tad (or a LOT) rusty!

I recently posted this look on a FB makeup group I am part of:

And it was requested that I do a tutorial.  How could I refuse?!!  

The look was inspired by my newest Sugarpill colour, the limited edition (and now sold out): Lucid!  I used it with various other Sugarpill colours and used a couple colours from my Neve Cosmetics palettes to soften up the crease.  If you'd like to find out how you can achieve a look like this, then please keep on reading!  :)

Neve Cosmetics "Halo" Eye (EOTD and FOTD)

Today I wanted to play around with my new Neve Cosmetics palettes and I decided to do a halo eye.

In Neve Cosmetics's Chiarissimi palette, which is full of gorgeous duochrome shades, there is one called "Unicorno" (a shade they describe as a "magic duochrome old rose with light green reflections") which I figured would be soooo pretty in the center of a halo eye with a dark brown on either side of it.

I'm also still trying to get the hang of applying lashes without also applying black liner as that tends to cover up my eyelid space too much when my eyes are open! Practice makes perfect...but I still have more practice ahead of me!!

And here are the pictures I snapped of the look:

Products used on the eyes:

• Tarte Amazonian Clay CC Eye Primer
• OCC pencils in Sybil and Sebastian applied to the eye as a base. I put Sybil on the inner and outer portions of the lid (and lower lash line) and Sebastian in the center of the lid).
• Neve Cosmetics Espresso applied to the inner and outer portions of the lower lash line and eyelid.
• Neve Cosmetics Noisette applied in the crease.
• Neve Cosmetics Etoile in the tear duct
• Neve Cosmetics Butterfly to highlight the brow bone
• Neve Cosmetics Unicorno applied to the center of the lid and center of the lower lash line
• OCC Sybil pencil on the lower waterline
• UD Ink for Eyes to line the upper waterline
• Quo eyelashes in 806
• Pure Anada Mascara in Black on the upper lashes

On my face--I have OCC concealer in Y2 under the eyes, a bit around the nose, and some on my chin. OCC's lip tar in Concubine on the lips. Pure Anada blush in Fresh Mandarin on the cheeks. And a bit of Inglot 560 through my brows.

It turned out pretty fun, I think!  :)
