:::amazon quad, where have you been all my life?:::

[queenofdisaster]

okay so i finally bought the amazon quad yesterday and HOLY MALORTIA! i'm in lurrrvvvve. the right brushes make a WORLD of difference too. i used the 223, 239 and 209 on my eyes and the 187 and 169 on my face.

face:
studio fix N3
fix+ and silver dusk mixture to set studio fix
taupe blush with the 169 to contour
187 to blend
169 to apply glissade MSF on apples of cheeks
169 to apply lightscapade MSF to highlight around eyes and temples
187 to blend everything together, again

eyes:
UDPP
amazon e/s allover lid and lower lashline with 239
roustabout patted on with 239 on inner corners and blended into crease
primal patted on with 239 on outer v and blended into crease
statuesque on 223, blended into crease in windshield wiper motions (thanks to ~LadyLocks~ and her awesome blending in her tutorial! congrats by the way girl!)
then i took a little bit of amazon on the 223 and blended everything together
blitz and glitz fluidline applied with the 209 on upper lashline
curled lashes and added fibre rich mascara in all black to top lashes only
rimmel black eyeliner on waterline

lips:
test pattern lipliner
classical lipstick

these pictures do my face NO justice,

thank you! and yes i love it. honestly i didn't think i would. a lot of people said that amazon was similar to nylon and the brown was too similar to espresso, which i have both of, but they're really different. amazon is like the perfect yellow-gold. and TBH i think this whole quad would look like the hot sex on you, miss shimmer.

Pretty! I've been wondering about this quad too...hehe. Think I might have to give it another look.

 

[Krasevayadancer]

You are gorgeous! I got both icon palettes and love em! Enjoy

 

[makeupgal]

You sure DO have Angelina eyes! You look beautiful. Very nicely done.

 

[MelodyKat]

oooh very pretty i love that quad!

Yes the Amazon quad rocks!It looks hot on you! I thought I would like Sultress over it, but Sultress seemed kind of boring. I love the peachy shade in the quad, all four colors are highly complementary
and can be used quite easily for day or night looks.
This is my favorite MAC e/s quad since the Tempt Me quad with Pleasurepurr. We will see what the Balloonacy quad turns out to be.

yes tempt me was my favorite, but this one bumped it to number 2. i'm dying to see how i like the balloonacy quad, i think it will be a winner though. and thank you
