I hardly ever, ever, ever do a minimal eye make-up look. So today, as I was feeling lazy, I thought I should bite the bullet and do one.
Eyes: Fyrinnae Moonchild (lid), a bit of MAC Gesso to highlight, Kryolan Cake mascara (in brown), Rimmel eyebrow pencil in Hazel.
Face: Revlon Colorstay in Buff, Primark Ta Ta For Now undereye concealer (better than nothing, but fairly pooey coverage) Primark The Happy Couple blush (pink side)
Lips: Milani 3d Gloss in In Vogue (much brighter in real life, thank god!)
I did feel very naked but I resisted the urge to slap on the eyeliner. I'm having a bad skin week, and I think I'd feel more comfortable with this look if I had less spots - they're all at the 'drying out' stage which makes them hard to conceal :(
Are you scared to go minimal? Do you think it's mental that I consider eight products minimal?!

Aslong as I have a good base I don't mine nearly naked eyes and lips, I often just wear mascara on my eyes xxx
ReplyDeleteI pretty much never go minimal because once I get started doing my makeup, I just keep going and adding stuff. XD I think you look very pretty here, though.
ReplyDeleteUhhh what spots?????? You look great here! .x
ReplyDeleteMoonchild is really lovely :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great natural look! You have beautiful skin! And I usually always go naked! I don't wear makeup to work! Its an evening and weekend thing for me!
ReplyDeleteyay!!! I went almost nekkkid too today. Just wore my pale green nyx jumbo eye pencil as eyeliner and mascara and foundation and blush. Quickest way to get ready evar.
ReplyDeleteI normally go naked with minimal eye make-up look unless full for special events.
ReplyDeleteI dont mind going minimal, but I just don't feel like myself if I don't have bright eyeshadow on :)
ReplyDeleteI don't mind going minimal, although usually if I only have time for minimal, I decide to be lazy and just scrap it altogether.
ReplyDeleteYou look so gorgeous!Believe me your skin looks sooo flawless!!!

@Karleigh: I think wearing less eye makeup certainly encourages me to concentrate on my base more.
ReplyDelete@Painted Moogle: Yea, I do that too. I was late for work and nothing was blending this morning but I added glitter anyway!
@Aoife: Mt Etna and co are camping out on the other side of my face, but thankyou :D
@Phyrra: I seriously want it's babies, its fab!
@The Peach: if I don't wear makeup to work my colleagues ask what's wrong!

@Leira Yann: I really need to try it more, my skin will probably thank me!
@SilhoutteScreams: You are a bit of a colour bunny :)
@kathyeffingjacobs: I tend to do that on holiday. Generally the only time I don't want to spend another half hour in my pjs!
@blushingloves: Thankyou doll :D
This is such a gorgeous look - I love that you've gone for really pretty, understated colours because the end result is just so girly and pretty. Oh and the lip colour is beautiful! :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I wish my skin looked this good when I was having a bad skin week! Honestly if you had to put up with my nightmare skin you'd have something to complain about :p

I love that lip color! If it's even brighter in person, then I must, MUST go find it haha.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, I nominated you for a blogger award: http://primadiva515.blogspot.com/2010/10/sunshine-award.html
