Summer is just around the corner so I’m really feeling really inspired by bright colors from my summer wardrobe. Here’s a face of the day that I did with coral colors on the cheeks and lips. Unfortunately I was too lazy to use the super-good digital camera to get a better closeup of my eyes, but if you look closely you might be able to see the greens I used.
Face:
Laura Mercier Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer in Almond
Laura Mercier Translucent Powder
Cheeks
MAC Fab Blush – This is from the Barbie Collection from a few months ago. There are rumors that the entire collection will be re-released this summer. If the whispers are true then snag this blush if you can. It’s fantastic!
Lips
MAC Lychee Luxe Lipglass
Eyes
MAC Bare Canvas Paint over entire eye (applied w/252)
MAC Fluidline in Sweet Sage over lid and slightly on crease (217), then on lower lashes (209)
MAC Eyeshadow in Swimming on lid and slightly into crease (275)
MAC Eyeshadow Vex on browbone (252)
Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil in Jungle Green
Today is supposed to be a hot one here in NorCal. Don’t forget to slather on your sunscreen if you’re going out to enjoy the sunshine!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

May 28th, 2007 at 8:16 pmHi Kia! I think you could totally work Lychee Luxe. I actually got the color from my mom, who pairs it with Mahogany Liner for a more intense, yet still natural look. You better get Fab if the rumors of a re-release are true. I bought it on a whim and I’m so glad I did.

May 28th, 2007 at 8:21 pmHeya AppleDiva! Vex is one of the best MAC shadows ever! It’s one of those colors I would’ve never thought of wearing but thank goodness I found it. What do you pair it with?
