I still love the colours and the combo of them together (GF Kathleen ... where have you been all my life?!?!?) but given more time I would have put them together differently.
And I love new Diamond Buxoms ... sparkle is so my thing. And Aubergine blush is great too (thank you Lisa!) ... so the combo all together is a real keeper.
Enjoy!

You're welcome, Erin. Aubergine is fabulous on you and you look gorgeous! I love the entire face and your hair is cute too.
ReplyDeleteYou look great. I love the Aubergine on you also. I think it is very fresh on you. You lips look very full and bountiful! LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you approve of my use of Aubergine Lisa ... wouldn't have happened without you ;)
ReplyDeleteI tried taking a close up of the ips and the colour was just not great in the pics. I can say though that the formulation of the diamond Buxoms is REALLY exfoliating. My lips were baby smooth by the end of the day for some strange reason!
I'm so loving my diamond buxoms....so much that I haven't been using any other lip colors!
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty and now I need to drag out that blush....it's around here somewhere!
I love the looks you put together! I am wondering why you use MAC Virgin Silver so often as a base. What effect does it have on the colors you use? How does the effect compare to Beige-ing?
ReplyDeleteHonestly ... it isn't as good of a base as the shadestick ... but I have been using it alot lately because it takes me about half the time to get it on and how I want it than the shadestick does.
ReplyDeleteThey colours aren't as foiled-ish or last as long with it, but it does it's job for the sake of the tutorials. The shadesticks make a better base ... but also a slower one!
Thanks so much for stopping by ... and please keep posting! So nice to see friends around!
