I am so happy that the sun briefly came out so that I could take some photos in the afternoon light! Today's look is a neutral one with a pop of pink, using Tom Ford Illuminating Highlight Pen 04 Liquid Bronze, Illamasqua Cream Eye Shadow in Peak and Tom Ford Translucent Finishing Powder 02 Ivory Fawn.
I've had the Tom Ford Illuminating Highlight Pen 04 Liquid Bronze since December - I bought it at the Manchester Selfridges counter. The Illamasqua Cream Eye Shadow in Peak was a blogger gift from Yinnie and the Tom Ford Translucent Finishing Powder 02 Ivory Fawn was a Selfridges on-line buy. I've had the Stormy Pink lipstick for a while - it was a Harrods purchase.
On my eyes, I used Illamasqua Cream Eye Shadow in Peak (a sort of muddy taupe colour) as an all over base, then applied Sephora Prisma Chrome Eye Shadow in Bronze Brilliance No. 15 to shade and contour. I set both eye shadows with a touch of the Tom Ford Translucent Finishing Powder - again, the powder is so sheer that you can use it around your eye area without caking. I lined my eyes with Estee Lauder Pure Color Intense Kajal Eyeliner in 02 Blackened Cocoa and applied two coats of L'Oreal Voluminous False Lashes Waterproof Mascara 290.
I blushed my cheeks with a pop of pink: NARS Blush in Angelika. I highlighted my cheeks with the Tom Ford Illuminating Highlight Pen 04 Liquid Bronze, which is actually quite sheer and subtle. Instead of using liner on my lower lashes, I applied a line line of the Highlight Pen. This brightens your eyes in a discreet way and doesn't accentuate fine lines and shadows.
I finished the look with Burberry Lip Mist Lipstick in 08 Stormy Pink - bright and glossy.
Hope you liked today's look and thanks for your support!

ReplyDeleteYou pull of bright lips so well! :) I wish I could... hehe~
ReplyDeleteI switched to 03 Fawn in the TF foundation, 05 Natural was too orange for me:( So far I really like the Finishing Powder too. I like this natural look today!
ReplyDeletewow! The lipcoclor today is especially beautiful! So nice accent on the lips!
ReplyDeleteI have to pass any powdery products, especially during winter season. My skin is extremely dry so that I can't even wear foundation after putting a ton of moisturizer beforehand. =.=;; It gets super flaky anyways...
ReplyDeleteDo you use the highlighter pen only for the eye area or also on the 'typical' areas such as forhead, chin, temples etc.?
Cream Puff: yes, I use the highlighter on my cheeks, brow bone, etc.
ReplyDeleteStormy Pink looks soo pretty on you! And yay to the sun coming out :D
ReplyDeleteI have both the tom ford finishing powder and the edward bess cream compact foundation! I can't agree with you more,they are THE BEST! Now I need to check out the TF highlighter :-)
