A Blue, Pink and Silver Eye with Clarins So Sublime Quartet

September 11th, 2008 by Karen 85 Comments

Have you seen the fall makeup look e-book on the Clarins website? I downloaded it earlier today (14 pages long, 22.6MB Adobe PDF) and couldn’t believe my eyes!

The book showcases five dazzling looks featuring makeup from the company’s new Jazzy Colours fall collection. Each look is accompanied by how-to instructions, and every other page features art by Margot Mace. I’d never heard of her before, but I think her work really fits the tone of the different looks.


The art of Margot Mace

I drooled over the pages for a while and then busted out the So Sublime Quartet ($40) to try the Trendy Makeup look (page 12).

The book’s reference pictures help with proper placement of the shadows and made this blue, silver and pink eye look really easy to do. I hope Clarins continues to release these books with their future collections.

I didn’t think I’d be able to use the colors in the So Sublime quad when I first saw them a few weeks ago because they seemed too bright, but playing with them today changed my mind. I like the results. I think I’ll include this eye in my regular rotation of work friendly (yet colorful) looks. Yes, Virginia, you too can wear hot pink eye shadow!

Other stuff up in this mix…

That’s Chanel Jouse Contraste Powder Blush in Rose Dust on my cheeks and Creme Gloss Lumiere in Petit Four on my lips.

What do you think of this look? Too bright or just right for work?

Wow! I can’t believe it’s already 10:30. After going for a run when I got home from work tonight I browsed the web for a little while. It’s been an uneventful night. I think I’ll do a little chilling and reading before bed.

We’re almost to Friday, woot!

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.S. Don’t rush off before seeing the Benefit Cosmetics Holiday 2008 Sneak Peek! 🙂

    Oooh that looks so pretty!
    Not too colorful for work at all! It’s amazing how well the pink works. It doesn’t make you look like you have pinkeye, which frankly, is always my fear with hot pink shadow.

    Luverly look!

    but, your new quad is most excellent! it’s gorgeous! I have no idea when this quad will arrive but I want it for myself too.

    I LOVE IT

    I say wear it to work

    if you have creativity i say let it show!

    my office is very laid back so i can luckily play with crazy color combos and not feel like a tool

    my assistant is just as addicted to makeup as i am (i am a very bad influence on her lol)

    so between the 2 of us we keep the colors flowing!

    makeup is an art i personally dont get the opportunity to paint as much as i used to now that all my art based work is computerized so this is my outlet!

    how do you feel abt clarins texture in terms of the pigment??

    i had tried them out a while ago when clarins first came out with their makeup line but i wasnt enthused back then i felt they were a little oldish feeling – i dunno maybe its changed i will have to visit my friendly clarins lady she saved my face from a bad facial their gentle cleansing cream rocks!

    also karen to answer your question from the neutrogena post – we should finally get married this late sept or early october we’ve been together for 7 years and engaged for abt 4 of them (yesi know pathetic) i am too busy for wedding planning and our families are so small is almost kinda pointless

    so our plan – we will have a bad ass honeymoon (we are going on a 10 day much needed vacation) cruise for 7 days throught the carribbean and then 3 days in puerto rico

    we will tie the knot and have a chic dinner party with close friends and relatives prior to our trip down in the soho area in nyc prior to our trip

    we plan to surprise everyone with the news at dinner lol

    our idea is to have a photo shoot in the middle of times sq and one in the bklyn bridge to create a cool announcement to all our more distant friends and relatives

    (90% of our lives revolves in the city since we both work there and we live in brooklyn lol)

    so thats the plan in our work positions the time for a wedding is just not possible
    this is our route – plus it saves us money to buy a home! (which to me in this day is just way more important!

    loving your pics with clarins!!

    Simply stunning!!! Offices are so-o-o conservative and boring, too. Sometimes you need to shake things up a little. I think that it just comes down to a matte of taste, which, of course, Karen dear, you have. The model for the Clarins Jazz collection with the platinum blonde bob, smokey eyes, berry lips and nails-gorgeous. That is my hair color and my hair style is similar. So perhaps I need to check out this Clarins line. I like the directions that they give for the different makeup looks for those such as myself who are cosmetically challenged. Have a great weekend? Are you doing any retail therapy? Love to you and Tabs.

    Hi YadiQ,

    That’s great that you work in a creative environment where you can express yourself through colorful makeup!

    Regarding the Clarins pigments, they’re really great! The shadows have the softness of Shu Uemura and the payoff of Chanel. Next time you are at the makeup counter you should totally go and play! I used to think Clarins was a bit stuffy and old lady, too, but I think within the last year they’ve really stepped up their game to appeal to a younger audience. The last few collections have been really fun and youthful with beautiful use of color. If you haven’t seen it already, here are some things from their summer collection which I loved:

    Congrats on your upcoming wedding! It sounds like it’s going to be intimate, classy and fun. Do you have your makeup planned yet?!?

    Your honeymoon sounds like it’s going to be amazing, too. I have a never been on a cruise! I’m so jealous!

    BTW, what do you do? I take it you work a creative field…

    Hey Karen,

    I love the blue on you…it looks great with your eyes!

    I went to Sephora last night and wanted to relay two things:

    1. Napoleon Cosmetics are 75% off @ the store located in Valley Fair Mall in San Jose. I don’t know if the line is carried in other Sephoras, or online, but this one is in the Bay Area (and I thought you might be interested!). It was pretty picked-over, but there were a lot of pots of eyeshadow left.

    2. I picked up some of the Make Up Forever HD Microfinish Powder. I’ve never used this brand before (something about the name turns me off) but the powder felt very smooth, almost wet when I applied it. It’s translucent and supposed to give your complexion a boost. I think I like it, but I’m going to have to get used to using it and see if I notice a difference. I would be interested in seeing what you think of it.

    Happy Friday!

As an NC30 I always steered clear of e/s pallettes with bright bluexpink tones (a.k.a. “The Olivia Newton-John circa 1985 – Let’s Get Physical music vid!”) and I was talked out of JC Rose Dust because I was told it won’t compliment my skin tone!

    Hi YadiQ,

    Oh how cool! The “language” of good design interests me very much. I don’t know a lot about it — when I do stuff there’s a lot of trial and error (mostly error, LOL). I can always tell when feel like when something looks off/ or doesn’t feel quite right, but I have a hard time articulating what makes something “right.” I hope in the future to learn more about the subject, as it’s fascinating.

    I used chocolate in my wedding colors too (they were brown/Tiffany blue)! I’m sure the look you will pick will look beautiful… and that you’ll have some kick ass wedding pictures!

    That Estee collection was quite snazzy! I really hope you can find some bits, as the colors are so beautiful, elegant and wearble!

    Urban Decay has their 24/7 liners in a “travel” pack and I want to check those out. Also, I’d like to check out the Sugar I Dream of Makeup kit, which I’d get a GWP of one of their shadow wallets if I end up buying that. It just looks really nice. I also want to check China Glaze’s fall colors, they’re on sale right now. Plus, they have Moisture Maniac from Bedhead on sale for $3.99 or something, which is super cheap and I use it all the time. I also might pick up some Ulta brand stuff because things like Ulta’s eyeliners are on sale for like $1 each.

    Basically, I plan on buying quite a bit. My birthday is next month, so, um, it’s an early b-day present to myself 😉

    I love this combo on you. In the best way possible, it reminds me of the eye shadow look that Barbie and her ilk used to have when I was growing up–glam and feminine and a little 80s. Because of your skin tone, it doesn’t look like too much. It just kind of pops.

    I just tried the placement myself using a Covergirl quad, and I’m really pleased with the results. Great post!

    There’s a transgender contestant in ANTM, that’s all I heard of. I get my Tyra fix from her talk show as well, not so much from ANTM 🙂

    I love the look, it’s gorgeous on you. I just bought a bunch of eyeshadow from Estee Lauder and Urban Decay. I think I may need to try this palette because it’s really pretty.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
