Indianwood Paint Pot My Love For Mac

As much as I love bright eye makeup, it's not something I opt for very often. I definitely prefer more neutral looks for everyday, unless I'm feeling inspired.

Here are my MAC paint pots and swatches. One epic fail.I keeps saying ironwood for one if my pots. It's INDIANWOOD. Sorry for my mistake!!! Pots mentioned: Painterly Soft Ochre Rubenesque. TheBalm Nude Dude Palette Looks Posted on April 5, 2015 in Other Brands Combos Ya gotta love The Balm Cosmetics and their unique packaging! 😉 I’ll admit I was a little okay, a LOT hesitant to try the Nude Dude eyeshadow palette after my experience with the original Nude Tude palette.

But then there's the days when I want to spice my look up with some color, without being over the top. I do this by finding wearable shades of specific colors. I love blues; They make my brown eyes really stand out. So when I want to incorporate blues into my look, I turn to my MAC Eyeshadow in Contrast. It's a gorgeous navy blue with a hint of purple and is so incredibly wearable.

Since I got a lot of great feedback on my last tutorial, I thought I'd do a tutorial on my favorite way to wear MAC Contrast, with a smokey eye. Products Used (in order of use, with shade descriptions and dupe, if applicable):.MAC Paint Pot in Painterly (not shown) 1. Sonia Kashuk Dramatically Defining Long Wear Gel Eyeliner in Charcoal Grey 2. MAC Eyeshadow in Contrast (purple-ish blue with blue pearl) dupe: MAC Deep Truth 3.

Revlon PhotoReady 3D Volume Mascara 10.

Loreal Telescopic Mascara. Prime your eyes before beginning! (not shown) 1.

Apply a gray or black gel eyeliner as a base on the outer half of eyelid with a densely packed brush or your ring finger. Blend out as much as possible to avoid creasing. Don't worry if it looks patchy!

(I used a liner with a dryer formula because cream products crease very easily on me, hence the patchiness.) 2. With a blending brush, apply Wedge through the crease making sure to blend out the edges of the base. Apply Contrast with a large shader brush over where you applied the gray or black base. Apply Wedge into the crease with a blending brush, blending out the harsh edges. With a small shader brush, apply Inglot Matte 318 to the inner corner and inner half of lid, slightly overlapping Contrast. Go back in with the large shader brush and a bit more Contrast and go back over where you first applied it to bring back its intensity and to blend it into the white shadow. With a shader brush, apply Inglot Matte 340 to the outer corner in an angled shape.

Bring it slightly into the crease, no more than 1/3 of the way in. Go back in with Wedge on the same blending brush to blend everything out once more. With a fluffy shadow brush, apply an ivory shade to the brow bone. With the tip of a shader brush, apply Contrast to the outer half of the lower lashline. With a small shader brush, apply Inglot Matte 318 to the inner half of the lower lashline. Apply black eyeliner to the waterline and tight line your upper waterline, if preferred. Curl your eyelashes!

(optional) 14. Apply mascara! I always layer my mascaras.

I recently purchased these 5 pigments samples from Allcosmeticswholesale.com. I have purchased from their website several times over the years and they are a great company with authentic products. These are all still available on their website. They were around $4 for 1/4 tsp sample, which is enough to last a while. I purchased 5 MAC pigment samples in the following colors:. Jigs & Jive. Sunnydaze.

This was part of a limited edition fall collection for 2011. In the bottle, it looks like it would be similar to Orly Rage or Sephora by OPI Chestnuts about you.

However, on the nail it is a sheer, almost nude polish with a subtle shimmer. I honestly prefer this over Orly Rage. I think this is more flattering on me. I think this is a great polish for people who want a nude look, but don't like the cream nudes. I think more people could pull off this color.

It took 3 coats to become opaque, but the formula is nice and smooth. Enjoy the swatches!  Maybelline Taupeward (no flash)  Maybelline Taupeward (with flash). I have to admit that I rarely use these. Honestly, I don't know why. They are great! They are super creamy, highly pigments and have great staying power on me.

I've used them alone or as a base and it worked well both ways. Swatching these reminded me of how great they are. I will be reaching for them more often! Enjoy the swatches!

I really love this collection! I picked out the 4 that stood out to me.

'FLY' is the standout of the whole collection in my opinion! Pink Friday is also great because it applies so nice for a pink. Most pale pinks are super streaky on me (ie. These colors don't necessarily look amazing on my nails, but I think the colors are beautiful, fun and different. The formula on all of these are opaque in 2 coats and apply very nicely.

FLY didn't stain my nails at all either. Metallic 4 Life was also very easy to remove for a chunky glitter polish. Enjoy the swatches!

I've been a big supporter of Vee at Glamour Doll Eyes for 2 or more years now. She makes amazing quality loose pigment eyeshadows. I pretty much have almost every color and limited edition set she has come out with.

I am so impressed with both Holiday Sets this year. I had to share the swatches! They are in limited quantity, but I just checked the website and they are still available for purchase.

I wouldn't wait if you want to purchase them. They sell fast. Set 1 includes ($16.00): Snowberry, Snowglobe, Champagne kisses, Gingerbread girl Set 2 includes ($14.00): Overslept, Midnight Light Show, December 26th, Tinsel Fight.eye light. Enjoy the swatches!

. L'Oreal's Breaking Curfew is a very deep dark (almost black) redish purple. In the bottle it looks almost exactly like OPI's Lincoln Park After Dark. They are very similar on the nail as well.

Breaking Curfew is slightly darker and looks closer to black on the nail. Lincoln Park After Dark looks more purple. I actually prefer Lincoln Park After Dark because it looks less black on the nail. I love colors that are very dark, but you can still tell they aren't black. Enjoy the swatches! L'Oreal Breaking Curfew (pinky, middle, thumb), OPI Lincoln Park After Dark (ring and index).

I've had this polish for about a month and am just now getting a chance to use it. I really love it. I'm more of a vampy red fan and this is right up my alley. This looks just like BBQ sauce! I did a side by side comparison to 2 colors in my collection that are similar, but not quite the same. O'Leary's BBQ  (L to R) OPI We'll always have Paris, OPI Mrs.

O'Leary's BBQ, OPI Just a little rosti at this  (L to R) OPI We'll always have Paris, OPI Mrs. O'Leary's BBQ, OPI Just a little rosti at this. These are my absolute favorite cream type eyeshadow that I've tried! I absolutely love the consistency of these and how easily they apply and blend.

They look amazing with such minimal effort and they wear all day without a primer and without creasing! I love them all equally! If you haven't tried these yet, you should at least try one and see what you think! Enjoy the swatches!

Click here to see my Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill shadow swatches! Click here to see my comparison to the NEW L'Oreal Infallible 24 hour eyeshadows! This is a very pretty dark green/blue cream polish. The formula is A+!

I only used 1 coat for the photo, but I will probably add a second coat because my nails chip so quickly. I've never heard anyone talk about this polish, but I really like it. In the bottle it looks similar to OPI's Ski Teal we Drop and Essie's Bobbing for Baubles. On the nails, it is darker more blue than Ski Teal we drop and it's slightly greener than Bobbing for Baubles. It is pretty close to Essie's Bobbing for Baubles, but it's not an exact dupe.

You probably don't need both in your collection. Enjoy the Swatches! UPDATE: Sephora by OPI: My Personal Serpent didn't stain my nails upon removal, however, it stained my fingers HORRIBLY! That really drives me nuts. I can't get the stains off!! I've scrubbed with Zoya nail polish remover and even tried Dawn soap. Essie's Bobbing for Baubles didn't stain my nails or fingers, so I would probably recommend that!

I layered this over greens, blues, reds and pinks. It just looked.well.meh over every color EXCEPT for black.

When you put this over a black, it is like HOLOGRAPHIC HOT LAVA! It is to die for!!!!!!!! If you get this polish and you don't have a black polish, just grab one from Wet n Wild and you are good to go.

This is so eyecatching it's incredible!!! Essie Shine of the times (over a black base).
