when you mix in your luminizer to your foundation, do you have to use a lighter shade of foundation then what you normally use to balance out the extra pigmentation? or is the color difference negligable?

actually, i would have used a lighter shade but the tinted moisturizer is already a bit darker that what i usually wear (i'm nc30 and it's nc40). i've noticed though that the tinted moisturizer actually comes out looking like my normal nc30. i find that mixing the two just blends them together, so it's not too much darker that normal. besides, since it's summer, my skin has gotten a tad but darker, so mixing the luminizer in matches my slightly tanner skin (though i'm not too tan like last year). so to answer your question, on me the color difference is negligable but it could vary from person to person. hope this helped!

You are young, beautiful and talented, I like the final results, I wore something similar today on my eyes but a little more subtle on me, I am not as young as you

thanks dear! the mac concealer is pretty good at concealing red spots if you layer and blend it properly. it's my fave concealer so far but i haven't really looked around too much! hth!

[chrissyclass]

it really does give a subtle glow if mixed with foundation. it makes my skin glow ever so nicely if you have a lighter skintone, i would suggest the L1 (i think that's what it's called) luminizer b/c it more of a pearly luminizer and won't make you look dark like if you used the L2 one. hth!

[MissChristine♥]

Looks gorgeous!

[blacktied]

You are fabulous.
Thanks!

[tsukiyomi]

Nice tut!

[breathless]

looks great darling!

[jannax212]

Wow, your tutorial makes me want to go out and buy all that makeup!

[LaChinita]

WOW!!! I LOOOOOVE this look!!! U did such a great job blending! Too bad I don't have none of the shadows u used so I'm going to have to try and substitute the colors or just get 'em...hehe...now I've got the perfect excuse to get to a MAC counter LOL.

I agree, the luminizer really made ur face glow!! Maybe i'll try that too...are there any drugstore luminizers out there?

[witchery-woo]

you DO make the shadowing look simple. i like the instructions about "packing on" the shadow before you drag it back along the crease. that made a lot of sense to me. the transformation was gorgeous and the choice of colors came out stunnning on you.

great-enjoyed it-just gorgeous!
