Hello, I hope everyone's holiday season has been a good one so far. I got sucked into the stress of college finals, then the start of the holiday season, and have been sadly neglectful of this little blog. However, I am back with some pictures of another Detrivore look I did, this time with some new colors which I will review more fully soon.
Picture time:
The color of Putrid is somewhere between the pics above and below. It's not quite as yellowy as the top pictures show, but brighter than the lower one shows. Darn you, camera!
Shadow from camera hand...eep.
Pardon the bad eyeliner; this was the first time I had worn contacts in weeks! I had gotten used to putting on makeup essentially blind, half an inch from my magnifying mirror. :)
The list of beauty stuffs:
Face:
Revlon Colorstay foundation Normal/Dry formula in 110 Ivory
Detrivore Pallor Mortis Dehydrating Powder (not actually dehydrating, but more on that at a later date)
Brows: Jordana Color Effects eye shadow duo in 08 Perfect Team, the matte black side
Eyes:
Rimmel Fix and Perfect Primer
Detrivore Original Eye shadow Primer
Detrivore loose eye shadow in Putrid (bright green on lid), Plague (dark green in crease), Abyss (little touch in outer V to darken) and White Chapel (for brow and inner eye highlight)
LA Colors loose eye shadow in Snow White to intensify highlight (I do not recommend this shadow; I got it at the dollar store and it is essentially fluffy white Mylar-esque glitter that goes everywhere. )
L’Oreal Infallible 24 hour Lacquer Liner (gel eye liner) in 171 Blackest Black (I have to get a thinner eyeliner brush...I'm always making a mess with the one that came with the eyeliner.)
Maybelline Great Lash Big mascara in Blackest Black
Cheeks:
Maybelline Single Eye shadow in Pink Petal (I don't know what possessed me to buy a pale pink eye shadow, but I have since salvaged it by using it as a soft, subtle blush. Hey, it works.)
Lips:
Rimmel London Lasting Finish lipstick in 070 Airy Fairy. This is slightly pinker and more muted than my natural lip color, so it's great for days when I don't want my lips to be the center of attention.
Also, I was reminded this week why I should stay away from waterproof mascara. I have only one tube, which I keep for days spent at the beach/pool or dealing with heavy rain or snow. Flagstaff had its first major snow a few days ago, and since I knew I would have to be out in it I decided that it was an appropriate day to bust out the waterproof. As usual, (why do I keep doing this to myself?) when I tried to remove it, it stuck to my lashes so badly that I ended up with six little eyelashes broken into stubs and blobs of mascara still stuck in the roots. Not good. Next time, I either have to try the Vaseline/olive oil removal method or just deal with runny mascara. Oh, well.
Have a wonder-filled day!
