LOTDs, a.k.a, Use Your Damn Stash

This morning, Skid Row WAS on my iPod, and this afternoon, Skid Row was NOT on my iPod. I demand my Skid Row back, man.

Anyway... makeup! Been determined to use colour properly this week, and while I failed at the start of the week, I managed to do some decent looks AND use my sliiiightly neglected Sleek Circus palette a few times!




Eyes:
Lid: Dark brown from Sleek Storm palette
Crease: Brown-green duochrome (MAC Club Dupe) from Wet & Wild Night Elf palette
Under Browbone: Orange from Sleek Circus palette
Lower lashline: MUA Intense Colour Eyeliner in Malted Chocolate, W&W Club dupe
Highlight: MAC Gesso
Liner: Collection2000 Fast Strokes in Black
Mascara: Collection2000 Skyscraper

Cheeks:
Models Own blusher in Warm Glow
NYX Mosaic Highlight

Lips:
Gosh Velvet Touch lipstick in Darling
Barry M Lipgloss Wand in Toffee

I was really pleased with this look! I think I should have added a darker brown in the outer V, but overall I was really happy. And the girl at Charles Fox (aka Mrs Magoriums Makeup Emporium - it's a huge trade makeup store in Covent Garden) complimented me which was nice!




Eyes:
Lid: MAC Gesso
Blue in crease/lower lashline: from Sleek Circus palette
Green in crease: from Sleek Circus palette
Dark blue on upper lashline: from Sleek Circus palette
Liner: Collection2000 Fast Strokes in Black
Mascara: Collection2000 Skyscraper (throughout post)


Cheeks:
Models Own blush in Warm Glow

Lips:
Barry M Lipgloss Wand in Sorbet

This wasn't as bright as I'd envisioned, but it was really light and springy and I felt like I was wearing 'fun' makeup!






Eyes:
Lid: Hi Fi Morbid Faith
Crease: Purple from Wet N Wild I'm Feelin' Retro trio (Stars & Rockets kinda colour!)
Under browbone: Evil Shades Sylph
Lower Lashline: MUA Intense Colour Liner in Lovely Lilac
Liner: Dark blue from Sleek Circus, Kryolan AquaColor in... er, purple.

Cheeks:
MUA Blusher shade 4

Lips:
Evil Shades Wicked Gloss in Suffocation

With most of the looks I do on myself, I tend to bring the colour right up past my crease. I have a lot of crease and I like to see the colours I wear, but this day I decided not to bring the purple up too high. I'm not sure whether I should bother putting a darker colour in my crease when I want to wear my shadow like this.






Eyes:
Lid: Vanilla shade from e.l.f Hazy Hazel quad
Crease: Purple from e.l.h Hazy Hazel quad
Outer V/Lower lashline: Fyrinnae Feline Familiars
Liner: Dark Brown Kryolan AquaColor
Highlight: MAC Gesso

Cheeks:
MUA Blusher Shade 2

Lips:
Fyrinnae Lip Lustre in Romantique (just a teeny bit!)

Feline Familiars has sat in my stash for a couple of month. I know, right? So bad. Anyway, I thoroughly regret that because it is goooorgeous. I saw Phyrra wear it, immediately had to have it and then it somehow got pushed aside. Silly me - it's a fantastic colour if your eyes are on the blue side!


Well, that's me behaving myself and trying to mix it up and use a wider variety of my stash! Any colour combinations for upcoming looks is greatly appreciated!
