I used: Stila Palette Benefit Confessions of a Concealaholic and Chanel Long Lasting Eyeliner in Rose Platine Not in photo: TBS Big and Curvy Waterproof Mascara and ELF Undereye Concealer and Highlighter

This was supposed to be one of two looks that I would use on a client but she cancelled the last minute. I was up the whole night trying out different looks. Anyway, that kind of stuff happens. I took photos because I showed them to my friend Kate and asked for her opinion. This wasn’t her choice, by the way. I don’t have a clear photo of that. This was at 11 pm so ignore everything except for the eyes. Plus, my skin was too dry and flakey. These are smokey eyes with a twist. I left the inner part of my lids in a neutral shade. I think this look can get you from day to night. I used my Stila. UDNY and MAC palettes to do this look.

I know I have a few backlog posts to work on but I’m in the mood to write a review on this newest Bobbi Brown Palette: The peony is Bobbi’s favorite flower. This is a collaboration between her and the clothing brand Tibi. The zipper is quite hard to open as it gets stuck on the edges but inside you will see this: There are 6 eyeshadows that you can use for day or night looks. This palette also comes with mini brushes. I have yet to use these brushes. Even when I was on vacation, I still used my full size brushes.  They’re hard to hold and I already have small hands! A closer look at the shadows: They are Opal, Lavender, Cool Ivory (top, left to right), Cobra, Plum Orchid and Eclipse (bottom, left to right). In my opinion, this palette is more of a smokey eye palette although I was able to get away with one day look that my MUA friends loved. I got a lot of compliments on that look. If I’m not mistaken, this is a photo of that look: The colors are a bit washed out ...
