Another Valentine's Day Look & Other Ideas

What are your plans for V-Day???

So I did another look for V-Day using MAC's "Bright Fuchsia" pigment (suggested dupe Ben Nye "Azalea" eyeshadow) and Pure Luxe's "Black Cat" (matte black, suggested dupe MAC "Carbon" e/s). I also dug out my "Show Orchid" lipstick (PRO) to help make this look pop (I absolutely love this lipstick even though I can't wear it everyday!)

I also used my Studio Sculpt Foundation again THIS TIME with a smidge of translucent finishing powder from Ellana Minerals (I got as a gift from Shen!) on top of it so it doesn't look too shiny and absorbs oil, it actually came out A LOT better don't ya think???!

These pics don't even show how it looks in person, the pink is a lot brighter, but for some reason they look a bit washed out compared to how it really looks on my camera, but nonetheless- it's PINK! BTW, the SCARF is from Forever21 in case you are wondering... :)



Lowered the flash so you can see the colors more...












What I used:

[Face]

- Studio Sculpt Foundation in NW25
- Ellana Minerals Translucent Finishing Powder in "espresso con panna"
- MAC "Strada" (matte blush) to contour

[Cheeks]
- NYX Blush in "Pinky"

[Eyes]
- Art Deco Eyeshadow Primer
- MAC Pigment in "Bright Fuchsia" (PRO) on lower half of the lid, applied wet with a sponge tip applicator
- Pure Luxe's "Black Cat" on outer-V and contour using MAC #226 brush
- MAC e/s in "Shroom" and "Mylar" as highlight
- MAC e/s in "Modern Heir" (light purple color) applied lightly on 3/4 of the lid near outer-V
- MAC Fluidline in "Blacktrack"
- L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara in Black
- Ardell Demi False Eyelashes in #102
- Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in "Rockstar" on lower lashline

[Lips]
- MAC l/s in "Show Orchid"
- MAC l/g in "Flashmode"

  21. All of your FOTDs are really awesome. I think the first one is a great one if you´re gonna go clubbing on V-day. The pink look is absolutely beautiful and it´s perfect for a romantic night with your loved one.

  22. I must admit, this year's valentine's look is my FAVORITE. probably because I'm loving just the small pop of hot pink eyeshadow amid all the black smokey.
