Browns and Nudes MoTD

Behold my go-to-fool-proof-look. This is pretty much a glammed up day look. It can work for any occasion. It's soft enough for the office or meetings as it is comprised mostly of browns and nudes with a subtle hint of peachy-orange. But, it's also glam enough for a dinner, a night out or even a special event due to the smokiness of the eye and that dramatic liner.

Tip of the Day:

If you have a lip color that's too pale for everyday use, a great way to still wear it is to layer it on top of a darker or brighter lip color. It gives that pale lip color a bit of which transforms it into a wearable everyday nude. This trick also works to tone down the dark or bright off season lip colors to, again, make it a wearable everyday nude.

Brush Review. The MAC 221 Mini Tapered Blending Brush. It's described in the MAC website as a shadow-blending brush used for application and blending of powders. I've vacillated between getting this brush and a flat shader brush because I thought it might be redundant with my 224. It isn't. It applies shadows in a more precise and targeted manner than my 224. Simply, the track of color it leaves behind is thinner and smaller so if you want to do more detailed work, this is a must-have. This is also velvety soft. No scratchiness at all, unlike the 224. The way I use this brush, I apply my crease color, which is usually dark or medium brown, blend it out a little using a window wiping motion. After, I use my 224 to apply my transition color, usually a light brown or tan, at the top part of my crease and blend that out a little as well using the same side to side motion. I gotta say, this is one of my best brush purchases due to the uniqueness of its utility and how gosh-darn soft it is. Good news, this was a limited edition brush but is now permanent. Bad news, during my vacillating period, I've noticed that MAC stores only have 1 or 2 of this brush in stock so if this becomes more popular it might be difficult to find.

Unboxed: Nars Audacious Anna

Image
Nars Audacious lipsticks are described as a one-stroke, full-coverage lipstick with a luxurious creamy texture. It also supposedly is enriched with ingredients which smoothen and nourish lips. Finally, it is touted to have long-lasting wear. The shade Anna is a dusty mauve. This shade, in my experience is rarely in stock due to the popularity of mauve lipsticks. It's also a personal favorite of several well-known youtubers, such as Jaclyn Hill.
