What’s shakin’, turkey bacon? What have you been up to today? I did some housework, went for a quick run, took care of a few other little errands, and watched a couple movies on TV (but no Muppets yet). And, of course, I played around with makeup, per usual.
I call this here look my “I plan to sit on the couch and watch Clueless on TV” Face of the Day, and that’s exactly what I used it for. 🙂
It’s a big time Benefit look. Just about everything I used is from the line, including the new Benefit Hervana blush, which I really like.
It’s just an easy look with pink cheeks, lips and eyes and a touch of taupe along the lash lines. Purrrfect for watching movies on the couch with your cat.
EYES
- Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow/Liner in RSVP (lids)
- Benefit High Brow (brow bone)
- Benefit Velvet Eyeshadow in Where There’s Smoke (upper and lower lash lines)
- Benefit Bad Gal Waterproof Liner (upper and lower waterliners)
- Benefit They’re Real Mascara (upper and lower lashes)
CHEEKS
- Benefit Hervana boxed blush (apples)
LIPS
Oh, Tabs also helped me with this. He suggested the taupe. 🙂
Hope you’re having a nice weekend so far.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

I just baked a maple cinnamon pumpkin pie. It’s so good!

December 3rd, 2011 at 6:54 pmI love the design of it! and it looks nice on you~
I’ve never bought a full size Benefit blush, they’ve been on my list to try for ages. maybe they’ll come out with a min set like they did with their stains and High Beam, so people like me can afford try them too ;3

December 3rd, 2011 at 6:56 pmI set a reminder for Benefit’s sneak preview sale of Hervana! I can’t wait to buy it!! Did you apply it to the apples of your cheeks or did you also extend higher?
Nicole says
December 3rd, 2011 at 6:58 pmNever mind – just saw the parenthesis 🙂

December 3rd, 2011 at 11:18 pmHmm. Colour me intrigued! I was wondering how well Hervana would translate on medium/dark skintones, but it delivers such a lovely flush to your complexion – unexpected, in the best way possible 😉

December 4th, 2011 at 12:02 amI may just finally pull the trigger on a Benefit blush with this one. I’m pale & cool-toned, and this looks like it would complement me. It seems like many of their other shades are too warm.

December 4th, 2011 at 8:58 amI’ll be in Paris next week and in my beauty-shopping-spree plans there’s a stop at Sephora so I’ll get the chance to look at Hervana closely. It looks like something I could wear.

Nina says
December 5th, 2011 at 7:57 amTabs and Taupe — best combo ever!
the blush/powder seems a bit cool for me …. but with a nice warm cream base, it will def work!
Sophie says
December 22nd, 2011 at 11:10 pmDef agree w/ Nina; Tabs has great taste. My cats tend to lean towards more pink colors, which I do not care for. Got to get them lessons with Tabs!
