  [COLOR=EE82EE] I'm in the process of doing the natural/neutral one:  Natural Smokey Eye Look [/COLOR]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSAweILjnpU [COLOR=EE82EE]   It's super easy and I happen to have the shadows that she uses, but they're easy enough to dupe or just replace w/ your own preferences.[/COLOR] [COLOR=EE82EE]​   I did this years ago and totally forgot about it.[/COLOR]
Thanks for posting this look! It appears pretty much foolproof. I don't have any of the colors that she uses but I palm to substitute with what I have.

hello ladies!

i've been catching up on everybody's looks and getting inspired!

the past couple of days i've been doing brown smokey eyes, but maybe i will venture into a coloured smokey tomorrow.

medgal, is glamapuss a recent mac lipstick, or an older one? i have to admit i am starting to lose track of say the past 6 months of releases. that's a bad sign isn't it?

Hi there Aradhana. I love a brown smokey eye and hope to do one soon. Glamapuss is an old MAC lippie. I wanted something that wouldn't compete w/my eye look other than a typical nude, and I came across Glampuss. Like you, I have not kept up with the latest MAC collections and recently purchased MAC Styled in Sepia because someone twisted my arm. I love the shade, by the way. Nevertheless, I'm enjoying exploring alternative brands.

You're a riot Sage. If you're loving Styled in Sepia enough to back it up then I'd better wear mine soon!!!

I haven't over looked the fact that you broke your pact of no more backups!

HhHhhaha VERY FUNNY!
Nyx coral dreams sounds like a dream come true! LOL How do you like Shea Moisture products? I'm looking for a new foundation and back to not knowing my color. A MUA recently said I was Olive. Another said Golden as opposed to Yellow (WTF? ) So Im lost again. Some of my concealer stash is not working, I didnt think I got that dark this Summer... but ah well.


I haven't worn anything this weekend. I had a migraine all weekend.
But Thursday I wore

YSL Fusion Ink b65
set with Nars tahoe powder fndtn (the new one prolly didn't need both)
set with Nars LRP

Eyes
An Amorous adventure quad
--sable on lid, Sex adn the oyster on the outer lid and black tied in the corner and crease
Nars Bengali in the full crease

Lips:
Riri Nude

Cheeks:
I think Stylish Me

I was trying to find a pic, but they didn't turn out, they're a lil too blurry.

I do this all of the time...
I tried this Thursday when I went to this even with my Mom. I liked it. It wasn't perfect, but I liked it. I'll post a pic later.

Thanks for the compliment, that shadow is MAC Blue flame I believe.

I think I'm going to do this one first...


Nope, not ready. I'm stealing some of the looks already posted. LOL
And don't say that, it's going to be beautiful!
Let us know how you like the Viseart and Bobbi Brown Palettes. I know you have a lot in your collex, did you feel like any of these were repeats. Have you checked out the MUFE artist shadows?


No let's do it... More time for ppl like me to practice and your looks help me more than some of the videos I've seen.

Your nails are awesome!
thanks for posting Karen's look I'm going to try it.
I need to find a replacement to the N3 palette. It had too much fall out for me. but this look sounds so pretty, I can't wait to try it.
how do you like the Charlotte Tilbury Face Sculpt.
I still have Chanel's Notorious. It doesn't show up on me, but I notice what it is doing. LOL If that makes any sense. I'd buy another even though that was my first time using this. This needs to be around forever.

Very pretty!

​I'm not enamored with all of the eyeshadows in N3, but I have a real love for pink eyeshadow and a couple in this palette really do work. I noticed a lot o f fall-out too
Pretty and to my knowledge that wasn't mentioned in the initial reviews of the palette....a case of hype outweighing reality.

I love Charlotte Tilbury's Sculpt & Highlight palette. I always use a cream product first and then set it w/CT or some other sculpt powder to set it and make it last
longer.

I do understand what you mean about Chanel Notorious. Here's what though, it may not show up intensely but it's doing the sculpting job because that's evident...like
you said. After all, it's only supposed to appear as a shadow anyway.

​ I hope you're feeling better Pretty!!!!
