French Lunch

A Sunday filled with good food, friends and all of us trying to speak French while trying to help the fluent ones understand English. All in all, I can proudly say I understand French a fraction better than I did before. 

Cut Crease // Naked 2 Palette

Inspired by Batalash Beauty Cut Crease. 

I used the Naked 2 Palette for this look

To prime my eyes - MAC Paint Pot in Soft Ochre

All over the lid - Foxy

In the crease - Mix of Blackout and Busted 

Under the eye - Tease

Finished with - MAC Gel liner in Blacktrack

 and a thick coat of mascara (Maybelline//The Falsies)

Inglot Eyshadow Duet

 Right- Rainbow eyeshadow 114R

 Left - Eyeshadow 22

Look below - 

Lid - Eyeshadow 22

Crease and transition to brow bone shade - Mix of the medium and darkest shade from the Rainbow eyeshadow 114R 

Outer corner - Any black eyeshadow, Blackout from Naked 2 or Carbon from MAC

Inner corner and brow bone - Any highlight shade, Nylon from MAC or Virgin from Naked Palette

All blended together (with a MAC 217 fluffy blending brush) to create a seamless transition from shade to shade. I put black pencil liner into my bottom waterline and a gel liner (MAC Blacktrack Fluidline with an angled brush) on the top extending out into a small wing. A thick coat of L'oreal Manga Mascara to complete the wearable, pretty purple look.

FAVOURITES

4- Ghost // Ghost Perfume

8- Tiger // Sticky Notes

13- Mac // Pro Longwear Paint Pot // Vintage Selection
This with a darker crease colour instead of using lots
of eyeshadows makes doing makeup faster. It's also a pretty 
primer. There are so many colours in the paint pots.

ESSENTIALS

10 - Vaseline
It's a necessity!

12- Beautique // Bronzer Brush
Affordable.

9- Stila // One Step Correct
I use this as a primer but can be worn alone to cover
a bit of redness because of the green pigment (along with the
lavender and peach)

17- L'oreal Paris // Miss Manga Mascara
Gives you those big anime lashes.

18- Real Techniques // Deluxe Crease Brush (Starter Set)
I use this with my concealer. I think it's too big for a crease
brush (as recommended). 

20 - Shox // Bebop bluetooth speaker
Charge and go. Play music in the bath, in art class, 
getting ready at someones house etc.
