1923 Face of the Day (With BMPro): In the mix

17 Nov 2011

So this is the look I created with my BMPro Ikeja Studio launch haul (you can check out the post here). I w3anted to incorporate at least 3 of the e/s into the look so I went outside my comfort zone of neutral, soft, makeup to something loud, bright and a mix.

See it

    I think you should step out of your comfort zone more often. I liked the look, except for the pink eyeshadow. It just didn't fit with the whole look (to me sha), but I liked the blue-black eyeshadows, especially the one you used in the crease your eyes. That would look great for smokey eyes!

    Lol, and so i have been requested to step out of my comfort zone more often. I will heed you girlfriend.
    It is actually a matte red colour o. came out as pink in the pictures. I was just determined to use as many colours from the haul as poss *hiss@myself* and oh yes, the Mahbrook black is a definite yes for the most gorgeous black smokey eyes.
    Thanks dear

    I like this look! I wish I could pull it off - I am too fair. I like the bright pop pf color on the inside of the lid - I wish I could have you do my eyes!

      And who said you can't? Its all in the technique and the particular shades of the colour.
