FOTD 02 August 2008 (A Variation on Green)

'Makeup Your Mind' by François Nars is a huge inspiration for me. I can't get enough of admiring the beautiful make-ups of his models in the book. I obviously can't compete with the results in the book, but I can try something similar. Tonight, after an exhausting day (mommy duties, hot weather and so on), I wanted to try a variation on green, similar to the one sported by Ling Tan in the book.

I used

 

* Collistar face powder, applied with MAC #150 brush

* Nars 'Sin' blush and a touch of Nars 'Albatross' powder highlighter, both applied with MAC #182 brush (I then used Nars Botan brush to blend all together)

 

* Nars 'Fuji' eye-shadow (that's the army green one), applied with MAC #239 brush

* L'Oreal 'Color Appeal Platinum' eye-shadow in gold (on the crease), applied with MAC #239 brush

* Rimmel London 'Moonstone' eye-shadow (on the browbone), applied with MAC #239 brush

* Deborah black eye pencil

* Maybelline 'Great Lash' black mascara (two coats)

 

* Orlane #22 lipstick (I bought it several years ago, and sometimes I still use it)

* Chanel 'Glossimer' lipgloss in 'Ovation' (applied only at the centre of the lips)
