Holy moly! That tealy blue is really amazing!

Robyn, I think Bibi uses a high quality brush and liner product. You can see she filled out her brows too. Way too cool and definitely 'in'. I know Bibi didn't ask for CC, but what the heck.

I use the MAC #209 liner brush to do my liner.

I used the cyan/aqua colour from my Mehron pastel palette as a base. The blue that is really popping is probably Mutiny. I only used Aquavert in the inner corner of my lid but the Mehron definitely helped the blue show up better.

Oooh I wanna see more pics, Bibi!!

I figured I should try out my studio stick NC20 sample today. The product was much creamier than I anticipated, coverage is ok, but I can see cakiness already in my T-zone. It will be interesting to see what happens as the day goes on. I reckon this product would be a nightmare for dry skin.
Does anyone use it?

Figured I'd do a mock version of the look I'm gonna do for the upcoming engagement and 21st parties... ('cept I'll use Russian Red l/s and falsies).

FACE:
Prep+prime
NW20 Select SPF Concealer
NC20 Studio Stick Foundation
CCB Premeditated (blush)

EYES:
UDPP
Painterly p/p
Shroom e/s (highlight - hey Robyn should I switch Brule and Shroom?)
Brule e/s (lid)
Cork e/s & Jardin Aires p/g (crease)
Espresso & Black Tied e/s (outer V)
Smolder e/k (upper & lower waterlines)
Her Glitz g/l (lower waterline)
Revlon Black Liquid Liner (upper lashline + flick)
Star Brunette d/l
Lancome Brow Pencil

LIPS:
Shy Girl l/s (RR l/s next time)
Bare Necessity d/g (maybe Rue de Rouge d/g... dunno. That might be a bit too OTT?)

NOTD:
OPI - Suzi & the Lifeguard

I feel like I need some form of highlight on the tearduct/inner 1/3 lid area tho... because it actually looks quite plain (despite the million products used).

My trainers all agreed the stick foundations work best on oily skin rather than dry so you're on the ball there

I was thinking about testing out the Kryolan TV sticks for that?

Me personally with highlight I decide based on the finish of the lid. If it's quite shimmery I'd go Brule if it was more matte or VP I'd go Shroom, but it also depends if you're thinking for day or night? Night time I'd probably use something more shimmery/frosty to go with the darker lid colours, hope that makes sense!

I found Honeylust this week to be a nice tear duct e/s??

The lid is not shimmery at all (even from putting a wee bit of Jardin Aires in the crease), so I reckon I'll stick with Shroom as a brow highlight and just put a touch of Jardin Aires p/g in the tear duct. I'll have to swatch Honeylust down the track!! It's for a night time look, so I'll use Russian Red l/s and falsies to vamp it up a bit.

Kryolan? Let me know how that goes. I think I get a Kryolan concealer wheel for my course. I haven't used their products before.
Studio Stick can shove it. lol.
