FOTD: I think it's about the lips

I wore this to work and literally got asked 3 times if I work at Mac normally. For reference, I work at Clinique/Lancome/Lauder... I was working in fragrances that night. I really want to know why people think that. I know it's bright, but really?

FACE:
- Mac Studio Fix powder in NC25
- Mac Select MoistureCover concealer in NW20
- Mac Studio Finish concealer in NW20 (yaaaay I'm using less now!)
- Rimmel blush in Pink Rose

EYES:
- Too Faced Shadow Insurance
- Mac e/s in Brown Down (brows)
- Lancome e/s in Style Section (silver)
- Make Up For Ever e/s in #92 (matte purple)
- L'Oreal Hip duo in Sculpted (using the dark sparkly purple in crease)
- Rimmel quad in Smokey Noir (matte black)

LOTD: Sephora's Holiday Makeup

I stole the base idea from MakeupGeek (Marlena) and just used different products.

FACE:
- Mac Studio Fix powder in NC25
- Mac e/s in Sushi Flower (used as blush)
- Mac mineralize skinfinish in Gold Deposit (above the blush)

EYES:
- Too Faced Shadow Insurance
- NYX e/s in Lanikai (lid)
- Mac e/s in Hepcat (inner crease)
- Mac e/s in Shimmermoss (outer crease and lower lashline)
- Mac e/s in White Frost (tear duct)
- Revlon e/s in Vintage Lace (brow highlight and blending)
- Merle Norman eyeliner pencil in Night Navy
- Palladio dark blue eyeshadow, unnamed (outer bottom lashline)
- Maybelline Lash Stiletto mascara in Very Black

LIPS:
I ended up changing it after I took the pics and just went with Mac's dazzleglass in Funtabulous. The hot pink was good for photos but just wasn't wearable. I just used a cheapie 99 cent Wet 'n Wild lipstick.

LOTD: Smokey Teal

Okay... okay... I lied. This isn't my look of TODAY. But it was a look of mine that I'm posting here instead of just on Facebook. I loved this one :)

I did a muted version of this during the day. Just use a clear gloss with some gold shimmer and don't use the dark brown in the crease, instead just use the lighter.

FACE:
- NARS makeup primer (it's a sample, seems to work pretty well but man is it expensive)
- Mac Select Moisturecover concealer in NW20
- Mac Studio Fix powder foundation in NC25
- Bit of translucent powder

EYES:
- Clinique All About Eyes cream (under eyes)
- Too Faced Shadow Insurance
- Sephora Eye Brightener pencil
- Mac e/s in Shimmermoss (all over lid and in the bottom inner corner)
- Mac e/s in Amber Lights (crease and into inner corner, also under eye in center)
- Mac e/s in Folie (on brows, mixed with Lucky Tom in crease)
- Mac e/s in Lucky Tom (from Hello Kitty palette... same as above)
- Sephora e/s in Pearl #8 (I really wish they'd name these... brow highlight and inner corner highlight)
- Sephora mini eyeliner in Glitter Brown (top and bottom in waterline)
- Ulta eyeliner in Golden Eyes (bottom waterline)
- Maybelline Colossal mascara in Classic Brown

CHEEKS:
- Mac blush in Prism
- Mac mineralize s/f in Gold Deposit (only just above the blush)

LIPS:
- The Body Shop lipstick #11/Plum (I would more recommend a lipstick like Twig from Mac or any nude pinky brown... I need to get one)
- Mac dazzleglass in Get Rich Quick (GORGEOUS)
Quick tips:
- Don't use 2 coats of the mascara I used. I knew about this and had forgotten, man does it flake horribly.
- For the darkening of the crease, use a small shader brush (example: sephora's small shader #23) and mix the two colors together, then create a V in your outer crease, blend, but don't blend too heavy. It may take a few layers to get it dark enough. Bring the color down into your lower lashline as well.
- Pairing this with a teal nail polish = hot
