Quick FOTD: Purpley-taupe look for work

So last week you found out what happened when the hubs went out of town.

Today, I want to share a really simple work look I did with one of the eyeshadows I got - Inglot #420.

FOTD: Going Au Naturel

When I posted my review of Bobbi's Copper Diamond Shimmer Brick, many of you girls requested for an FOTD. And so here it is.

Do bear in mind, though, that the shimmer brick is very natural, as I have mentioned before in my review. If you're expecting high drama from this shimmer brick, then you will be let down.

Trying to capture the "glowy look" in a photograph is also a lot harder than you'd imagine! I'd like to think it really looks better in person. =P

Read on to see what I used for this very natural look.

Face

• Illuminare Ultimate All-day Foundation/ Concealer
  
• ZA two-way foundation (on chin, nose and forehead only)
  
• Skin Food powder for oily skin

Cheeks

• MAC blush in Cubic
• Bobbi Brown Copper Diamond Shimmer Brick

Eyes

• Bobbi Brown Copper Diamond Shimmer Brick
  
• MAC eyeliner in Teddy (dark brown liner)

(The shimmer brick, while great as a highlighter or a wash to wake up tired looking eyes, can look a little light on its own. I think adding a darker shade of brown eyeshadow would complement the look quite nicely.)

(I added just a wee bit of brown liner to add a little oomph to the look. I felt it looked a little plain on its own as the colours are so natural.)


Lips

• Lipbalm
• MAC lipstick in Sandy B

So, what d'ya think?
