KAREN: It’s OK…

RYGOS: So do you like them?

KAREN: What?

RYGOS: The liners.

KAREN: I do. They’re these new glittery ones based on the NARS night series eyeshadows. They’re smooth and pigmented and last a long time, even on bare lids without primer. only thing is, I can’t use them on my water lines.

RYGOS: Why’s that?

KAREN: The glitter. My eyes are really sensitive, and any time I get glitter up on my water lines, they freak out. and as a general rule, you normally don’t want glitter anywhere it could scratch your eyes.

Wait a second — I know you didn’t call to talk about eyeliner and glitter, so what’s up?

RYGOS: I have some news…

KAREN: Oh, yeah? Is this legit news or the start of some BS joke on my behalf?

RYGOS: I don’t do that.

With the MAC A Passionate Quest Quad, Blue Is the new Purple

wearing the new A Passionate Quest Quad from the MAC A novel romance collection for fall 2014
MAC loves purple quads.

No, not those purple quads.

REKLAMA

I’m referring to purple quads like these…

The MAC A Passionate Quest Quad ($40 U.S., $48 CDN)
They’ve been a recurring theme over the years (see: MAC Kelly Osborne Bloody brilliant Quad, Archie’s girls Eye shadow X 4 in spoiled rich and the private viewing Quad from make-up Art Cosmetics, among many others), and with the new MAC A Passionate Quest Quad, their purple passion lives on. I think it’s one of their most interesting purple eyeshadow productions to date.

Those two shadows on the right side of the quad may look like pretty unassuming purples, but they each contain a surprising amount of blue.

REKLAMA

Kočky a make-up mikina?

Serenade, the lighter shade, is a mid-tone purplish pink with blue duochrome, while stay Sultry is a dark navy violet.

The blue in both shadows advertises itself more clearly on my skin than it does in swatches, and it’s weird — layered on top of a black base, both shades look almost more like blue eyeshadows than purple.

See the blue on my lower lash lines? That’s Serenade layered on top of a black liner
A breakdown of the eyeshadows in this look: The wrong man (a light amazing dusty pink) on my brow bones and in the inner corners), Serenade (a mid tone pinkish purple with blue duochrome pearl) on my lids and lower lash lines, Brazenly (a rich eggplant) in the crease and stay Sultry (a deep violet navy) in the outer corners. Also, on my lash and water lines, I’m wearing MAC Fluidline Eye Pencil in Black Brilliance. Lashes are Ardell 105s.

It’s as if the quad has a split personality. If you were to split it right down the middle, you’d have a blue duo on the right, and a more traditional purplish pink duo on the left.

A Passionate Quest (limited edition) is one of three quads in the MAC A novel romance collection, and I’d say it’s probably the most dramatic — and that’s not just because of the blue surprise. MAC really swings for the fences with the darker shades in the bottom half of the palette.

I’m wearing Powder blush in fun Ending (a soft neutral peach) and Lipglass in Bared for You (a soft rose bold), both from A novel Romance

MAC’s been playing a lot with pigment over the past few seasons, especially with their limited edition quads, sometimes, I think, to the chagrin of their core fans. Deceptively dark shades in some of their quads turned out to apply surprisingly sheer, and depending on how rich and heavily pigmented you like your eyeshadows, these could have been hits or misses.

MAC A Passionate Quest
But this isn’t an issue for the two darkest shades in A Passionate Quest (the ones on the bottom half). Both are packed with pigment. It just takes a bit of Brazenly (the eggplant shade) or stay Sultry (the navy violet) to get a powerful punch, and neither shade suffers from bothersome fallout. also with these, I don’t have any major problems with blending, layering or wear time.

I can see the intensity of these shadows working well for dramatic smokey eyes in purple or blue tones, or for winged eyeliner looks.

REKLAMA

A Passionate Quest isn’t shy at all. It’s bold, and I like it! save it for a time when you feel like cutting loose, and don’t forget the false lashes.

Neočekávané pochoutky činí život extra Sweet

každý den, kdy jste neočekávaně dostali Cupcakes je úžasný den.

Můj soused mě přivedl tuto krásnou krabici o ‘Sugary Dojde dnes ráno z místní pekárny zvané Susiecakes, a já jsem přišel blízko k jídlu je všechny v jednom seděli na oběd, neříkej!

Pokud mi dáte volbu mezi slanou a sladkou, vždy si vyberu sladce.

Mmm … sladkosti.

Znali jste někdy někdo, kdo nemá rád sladkosti? Jsem vždy ohromen, když jsem narazil na někoho, kdo nemá rád cukroví nebo dezert. Můj BFF Cindy je takový. Ona je ambivalentní o sladkostí, což není problém, když se vydáme, protože to znamená mnohem více dort pro mě.

No, It’s Not Jason Voorhees. It’s a $6 face Mask by the Sephora Collection

Hmm… how does one take pics of herself wearing a fabric face mask and still look cute? I’m lookin’ for ideas. If you have any, by all means, please share with the class.

‘Cause I dunno.

REKLAMA

Walking around the house looking like Jason Voorhees does have its perks, though, like, it makes doing work at your desk seem less like work, because it’s hard to get stressed while one of these cloth face masks is doing its plumping and hydrating thing.

I’m also that much better prepared to scare away the neighborhood kids when they come a-knockin’ to sell chocolate bars, because THIS lady DON’T need another chocolate BAR, SON.

I taken a look at these Sephora Collection masks today! The rainbow display was hard to miss.

So, I really like the face masks by SK-II, but hold my pears! — those things are obscenely expensive ($135). They’re maybe a once-every-two-years thing.

These Sephora masks, on the other hand, are only $6 each, and there are eight.

From the Sephora website…

Lingzhi Mask: creates the appearance of smoother, plumper, and younger-looking skin.

Lotus Mask: Refreshes worn out skin and reduces signs of strain and fatigue.

Honey Mask: Nourishes and balances to soothe and freshen dry or sensitive skin.

Pearl Mask: Perfects and brightens with natural-origin pearl to create high luminosity.

Ginseng Mask: Tones and energizes while supplying a tightening effect for a plumped and supple complexion.

Green Tea Mask: Mattifies and purifies to soothe skin, absorb sebum, and minimize the appearance of outbreaks.

Rose Mask: supplies deep moisture and brightening properties through natural rose extract.

Pomegranate Mask: Awakens, energizes, and protects the skin with antioxidant-rich natural pomegranate extract.

I chatted with a friendly Sephora makeup artist in the store, and she pointed out that the rose Mask was their bestseller, so I grabbed one of those. She also recommended the Honey Mask for straight-up hydration, and considering that the masks are only $6 each…

Twist my arm, why don’t ya!

She also said that her personal favorite was the new Lotus Mask for refreshing worn out skin, so maybe I’ll try that one next time.

All of them are easy to use. just open the package, apply to clean, dry skin, and leave it on for 15 minutes. then remove and gently massage any remaining product into your skin. No need to rinse.

When I got home from Sephora this afternoon, I washed my face and used the rose Mask.

I was shocked by the amount of product in the fabric, considering that it’s only a $6 mask.

I think the SK-II masks I’ve tried in the past were juicer? — for lack of a better word, but this one is still moderately juicy, LOL!

When I removed the mask today and did a little facial massage, as per the directions, my skin felt a little less dry. I think I also looked less worn out and a lot more radiant.

That said, the areas around my mouth and cheeks that were dry before I used the mask were still a tad tight…although a bit better, so maybe this particular mask isn’t as ideally moisturizing as I’d like.

REKLAMA

But it’s $6…which is $129 less than the SK-II masks (!).

I’m really looking forward to trying the Honey Mask next. hopefully that one’s even a lot more moisturizing.

If you’re interested, Sephora has an online-only deal going on now where if you get four masks, you get a fifth mask free.

Make-up, stejně jako odvolání blog pondělí hlasování, sv. 367

You may be wondering, “So what in tarnation is this Monday Poll thing anyway!?”

Není to právě průzkum. Je to mnohem více pravidelně vyvíjející se (devolní?), Poněkud náhodný seznam obav, které jsem dal návštěvníkům každou pondělí ráno za posledních sedm let. (Je to jako kickstart pro váš mozek.) Vždycky jsem si potěšil čtení vašich odpovědí v komentáři, stejně jako doufám, že si budete mít radost ze čtení dolu.

What are three pieces of recommendations you would provide to a younger woman?

Definitely drink a ton of water, she stated holding up her Bkr. When I don’t drink sufficient water, whatever is a bit a lot more difficult. My skin provides me a difficult time, my brain doesn’t work as quickly…
See, it’s not firing ideal now since I haven’t had sufficient water.

Choose the people around you very carefully (that’s one of those things I discovered the difficult way). positive people with a great outlook will lift you up, as well as every spirit needs lifting sometimes.

You don’t have to do whatever yourself (again, one more lesson discovered the difficult way). For many, lots of years I felt like I was the only one in the proverbial boat, like whatever was completely as much as me to figure out as well as do, however it’s okay to request help. It’s okay to requirement assist (everyone does), as well as whatever doesn’t have to be hard.

Nail appeals (dangly or otherwise) — indeed or no?
Sakra ne. Tabs would go insane. He’d never leave my nails alone.

Plus, I don’t keep my claws long sufficient to have adorable bit charms. They’d always be rattling around the place, as well as even if I did keep my nails long enough, the appeals would click as well as clack on my keyboard.

I can’t even believe about it… It would drive me nuts!

Are you looking ahead to anything this week?
I’m looking ahead to going out on one more mid-week motion picture date. El Hub as well as I did that last week. We went to see a new horror motion picture called It Follows, as well as it was type of great (the date, not the movie; THE motion picture WAS SCARY!).

I believe it was last Tuesday or Wednesday night. It was just us, as well as three other dudes on a bromance date, in the entire motion picture theater. It was cool.

Ripped denim or partner jeans?
Roztržené džíny.

What do your sun glasses look like?
Mine are a beige pair of large feline eye sun glasses by Tory Burch.

Got them last year on sale, as well as I like ’em, however I’m believing about changing to a pair of incredibly adorable Kate Spade aviators that I tried on at Nordstrom last week.

Yup, major life dilemmas…

Last odd dream you had?
It was this past weekend. I dreamed that El Hub as well as I broke up! — as well as then I married Prince.

And he was so weird!

It was truly odd being married to Prince…and I was totally heartbroken. I just wished to go back to El Hub.

Dang, it was the weirdest dream…

This I discovered last weekend when I made scalloped potatoes for Easter.

Udělali jsme tolik prohlídku tohoto víkendu, zatímco mé zákony se dostanou do toho, že mé nohy jsou stále bolavé.

Konečně, tento krytý zahradnický glóbus od natura! Dostal jsem to, protože jsem nedávno zacházel s mou kanceláří do daru letecké rostliny, a myslím, že zeměkoule pro něj bude dobrý domov.

A co ty? Udělal jste nějaké nakupování minulý víkend? Dotazující mysli chtějí vědět.

Where Are You at right now in terms of Your foundation Coverage? have You Been using more full Coverage, medium or sheer as well as Why?

using medium-coverage Dior Diorskin nude Air Serum foundation in 40. I like the velvety finish, which isn’t rather a flat matte.
Full protection was my jam for a truly long time. I was all about opaque protection (sometimes, um, it was even borderline cakey).

I believe this was partly since of some skin problems I had a few years ago. I was breaking out badly, as well as I felt like I had to cover whatever up.

REKLAMA

Then, slowly however surely, my skin started to improve, however it took a long time. I made some modifications in my diet plan (mainly more water, less dairy) as well as started utilizing different skin products. My skin grew less fussy (although by no means was it ever perfect), as well as I started to feel more comfortable.

But I kept using full coverage.

I still have pigmentation problems right here as well as there as well as other acnes as well as fine lines, things like that. I likewise have my share of freckles, however I’m at a point, at least for now, where I’m more comfortable with that.

I wear medium as well as sheer protection a great deal now, however I don’t understand if you can always tell in pictures, since I believe I’m getting much better at manipulating the concealer. That’s a huge key. instead of caking all of that foundation on or utilizing tons of full-coverage foundation, I’ll go as light as I can with foundation, as well as then extremely purposefully location concealer to cover — not cover up, since I dislike words like “cover up” as well as “mask” — as well as even out the skin tone. The concept is to let the concealer do all of the heavy lifting.

I believe I’ve likewise gotten much better about utilizing primers. I utilized to believe they were overall B.S. as well as just an additional step, however no, they truly make a significant difference, as well as not just in terms of exactly how long your makeup lasts, however likewise in terms of the structure of your skin.

There’s a great deal of excellent choices available now for primers that smooth the surface as well as blur pores, making whatever you put on top of them look more natural, as well as letting you utilize less makeup overall.

Wearing the wonderful full-coverage Laura Mercier perfect Fluide in Chai
Also using Laura Mercier perfect Fluide in Chai
It’s likewise the time of year. right here in northern California, it’s starting to warm up a little, so I haven’t been wanting to wear a full-coverage face, where you just feel all of that makeup sitting on your skin. I like the concept of heading into spring as well as summertime using less makeup, as well as my skin being able to breathe.

But it’s still been a change. When I went to brunch last Saturday, I used a great deal less makeup than usual, less foundation as well as less makeup in general. I just used a bit of the Dior foundation without any type of concealer, as well as it was surprising to see those unequal areas peeking with in the mirror.

REKLAMA

I believe the surprise is partially in my head, though, since I’m so utilized to seeing myself in full coverage, as well as the whole, “this is exactly how my skin looks??” however this is exactly how my skin looks. I do have some parts that are not as even toned as others, as well as that’s totally fine.

How about you, my friend? Where are you at right now in terms of your foundation coverage? have you been using more full coverage, medium or sheer as well as why?

NARS Enters the false Eyelash fray With the new NARS Eyelashes false Eyelash Collection

The new NARS Eyelashes, $20 each
We must absolutely make false Lash Fridays a thing.

You know, like how people do flashback Fridays on social media? like that, but we’ll all wear false lashes, and then go about our regular business.

We could posslby even start with these new NARS Eyelashes ($20 each, and being added to the permanent collection).

Wait — say whaaaat!?

Yup, NARS is jumping into the false eyelash fray with a new line of reusable, natural-looking, natural-fiber lashes coming out next month (available in eight styles). how very Shu Uemura of them, right?

They’re all meant to look reasonably natural, or natural-ish, so there are no outrageous glitter styles with rainbow gems at the tips.

They also don’t come with lash glue, just as a heads-up, so you’ll need to already have/procure some. A lot of the department store brands (MAC and Shu come to mind) don’t include lash glue with their falsies, so it’s not uncommon…but often it’s still a little inconvenient.

The new NARS Eyelashes: pictures of styles 1-8

Oh, hello, Numero 1. I saw you winking at me from across the room!

This one — primary — was created by the man, the myth, the legend himself, Francois NARS. It’s an everyday, but far from boring, little-black-dress style created to complement all eye shapes. I popped ’em on this morning, just for fun, and they’re incredibly lightweight and comfortable.

I like that the lashes aren’t too long but are still noticeable. The band, however, is a bit long for my eyes, so I have to trim the ends a smidgen.
