Please pardon the gaps...

The site is in mid-migration now (manual migration of over 7,000 entries, so there's a lot to be done.) The entry stubs are created for older content, but for the most part, the actual content isn't there quite yet. I am working on it. Unfortunately I have no ETA. But feel free to link to any page! When the content does get populated, the URL will stay the same.

Winter Orchid Waltz

Playing with some of my new colors...and some of my older ones. A whole-face look today, not just the eyes.

Face

  • Sephora Light Touch Concealer
  • Meow Cosmetics Sleek Himalayan foundation
  • Bare Escentuals' Escape blush

Eyes

Lips

  • Bare Escentuals' Berry Glace lip color
  • Bare Escentuals' Katie buxom lip polish


Angel Bouquet does provide a nice "antiquey" all-over color with just a slight bit of shimmer even when applied dry. Girl Friendly is a very light pink-mauve, so I don't know that it really warmed up the color so much as provided a near-neutral base for the color to adhere to. I'm pleased with how the look turned out! I always seem to have better luck wearing any kind of contour shade if I apply the darker shade first, then apply the all-over shade atop it.

Knights Trump Dwarves is well on its way to being my "go to" liner shade. It's a deep, rich color with a good deal of shimmer, so it can quite handily be used as a regular color in its own right. I just really like how the purple emphasizes my eyes, and how the shimmer brightens the look. This was a limited-edition color, so when it does finally run out I may cry a little bit. (I have some colors that are close-ish, but nothing quite matches it.
