Colour Burst


I wanted to play with my loose eyeshadows as I hardly use them on myself & I have some gorgeous colours.
I knew I wanted to use the yellow and this gorgeous colour by OCC called Cherry Bomb so I let those colours guide me & here's what I came up with.
On my eyes:
  • Too Faced Shadow Insurance Primer
  • NYX Cosmetics Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk [base]
  • A red eyeshadow from the 120 eyeshadow palette - 1st edition [just on my lid]
  • Firefly from the Too Faced Smokey Eye palette [under the brow + on the browbone]
  • Smoking Jacket from the Too Faced Smokey Eye palette [above the crease & blended into the browbone]
  • Pari Beauty's Transforming Eye Gel [mixed with the loose eyeshadows to intensify the colours & help them stick]
  • Cherry Bomb loose colour by Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics [on the lid]
  • Azure mineral pigment dust by Annabelle Cosmetics [lower lashline]
  • Sunny Side Up by Pure Luxe Cosmetics [inner corner]
  • Amethyst by Pure Luxe Cosmetics [transition colour above the crease between the yellow & dark purple]
  • Smokin Hot from the Too Faced Smokey Eye palette [slightly applied to darken the outer crease just a tad bit]
  • Black: liquid eyeliner + pencil eyeliner [tight line & waterline] + mascara
  • Falsies
I also used Senna Cosmetics' Sketch-a-Brow precision brow pencil in Mink.

On my face:
  • Revlon Colorstay liquid foundation in 250 Fresh Beige
  • Annabelle Cosmetics' skintrue concealer
  • Maybelline's Dream Matte Powder in Honey/Medium 3-4
  • Too Faced Chocolate Soleil matte bronzer [to contour my cheeks, jawline & temples]
  • Josie Maran Argan Illuminizer [cheekbones]
  • Dior Shimmer Powder in 002 Amber Diamond [cheekbones]
  • NARS blush in Taj Mahal
On my lips:
  • Sephora lip stain in 04
