Selfish Silver Smoke

Hello pretty earthlings! I attended a dinner last Saturday, the 12th. I initially wanted to use the Naked 1 palette because it's my all time favourite, but I saw my unopened-still-in-its-plastic-bag NudeTude palette so I think I might as well make use of it!

From the title of this post, it needs no pointing-out that I made this eye look on the one shade that caught my eye, Selfish, a silvery taupe shade. Hence it is the main color of this look. The products I used are as below :D


Face/Base


  • Benefit the POREfessional primer
  • Yves Saint Lauret Le Teint Touche Éclat foundation
  • NYX Above & Beyond Coverage concealer
  • Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder
  • theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer as a highlighter
  • theBalm Betty-Lou Manizer as a bronzer
  • Sleek Blush by 3 in pink lemonade

Eyes






      Shadows:
  • Applied Selfish from the inner corners to the middle of eyelid, leaving the outer corner bare
  • Lightly tapped brush onto Serious and put it on the outer crease of eyelid, blending inwards together with Selfish
  • Used my ring finger to apply a little hint of Stand-offish on the middle of eyelid to give that extra pop and dimension so the entire eye look won't look too flat
      Rest of the eye area:
  • Bobbi Brown long-wear gel eyeliner in Black Ink
  • Shu Eumura eyelash curler
  • Revlon Lash Potion mascara
  • Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Ebony

Lips




  • NYX soft matte lip cream in Prague

Brushes


  • Foundation - Real Techniques buffing brush
  • Concealer - Real Techniques domed shadow brush
  • Powder - Real Techniques multitask brush
  • Eyeshadows - Real Techniques base shadow brush
  • Eyeliner - Real Techniques fine liner brush
  • Bronzer - Real Techniques contour brush

Final look!




I really liked how everything turned out in the end, nothing too fancy and yet nothing too..simple. I hope you had a great weekend and here's to another one!
