Quick Look: Lancome Experiment

Jan 25, 11

More often than not I reach for my MAC palettes when it comes to eye shadows, which is precisely why I have them. However, from time to time it’s nice to break from routine to try something different. My Lancôme shadows are something I very rarely reach for, and that’s because I find that some of the matte shades...

Posted by Tamara in EotD

Last night was a bit of a disappointment, and so I found myself idly browsing YouTube videos. I noticed one I hadn’t one of Lauren’s new videos, so I watched. The colours are bright and out there and absolutely awesome. In fact, they were enough to dispell my little funk and inspired me to give it a try. I kept it...

For the third installment of the series, I decided to go with purples. Purple is great year round and tends to be universally flattering, especially for those with green and brown eyes. I used the same products again, with the exception of using the plum liner as a coloured base to bump up the intense look. Urban Decay Primer...

After the bright aqua of the first installment I decided to go with something more neutral. This second round of looks is featuring the Eye Studio quad in Sunset Seduction. Just like the first time around, I used the same products for simplicity’s sake. The one exception was the liner. In the classic look, I used the...
