This FOTD is a demonstration of some of the latest reviews on the blog – Sephora MicroSmooth Baked collection, Sephora + Pantone Universe Foiled Waterproof eyeliner set and Best of Hourglass set. It has been a very busy time 
From the Sephora baked palette:
– 1 Natural Light as brow bone highlight
– 10 Silver Sparkle in the inner corners
– 11 Black Light in mid lids
– 9 Purple in the crease
– 15 Solar Eclipse in the outer corners
– the baked blush swirled together
– the matte bronzer from the baked bronzer duo
– the baked luminizer as finishing powder/ highlight.
Also use the Sephora + Pantone Universe Foiled Waterproof eyeliners in Purple and Silver.
From the Best of Hourglass set:
– Veil Mineral primer
– Film Noir Full Spectrum mascara in Onyx
– Extreme Sheen High Shine Lip gloss in Ignite.
A rare pic with me smiling, as suggested by some of you, my lovely readers. Hope I don’t look too awkward.
Other products used:
– Rimmel Lasting Finish 25 hour foundation in 300 Sand, lighten by Marcelle Matte Finish in Almond. I think Marcelle matte foundation is overlooked, it is actually really nice for any time of year, especially summer
– Maybelline Color Tattoo in Edgy Emerald. It is sheer but good as an eyeshadow base
– Joe Fresh Lip stain in Apple. Another overlooked product. It is a traditional lip stain, with a felt tip applicator, has good staying power and is not drying. This colour is a pretty but gentle red. At the end of the day, I quite enjoy the faded pink it left on my lips
– Yves Rocher eyebrow pencil in Brown.
I need to learn how to contour better, it feels like my face keeps getting rounder and I want to look slim
We do use a lot of products on our face, don’t we? I don’t think it is a bad thing, as I find it comforting to spend a little time to make ourselves look pretty and confident.
I have nothing against natural beauty, sans makeup looks, if you have the face for that. I don’t, and I’m happy with how makeup helps me get where you are naturally. Then I can wash it off before bed, and start all over again the next day with something different. Another excuse to wear makeup is FOTD posts on the blog
Anyway, there you have it, my quick look from some of the products I have recently tried out, to set the pace for December. These pictures were taken before I left, so yes I was still in my winter coat
Thank you for your support, as always. Here to the last month of 2012… cry a bit inside…
