a smidgen of vanity





Bonjourno chicas!
So the above pictures were some poopy photobooth snaps after I'd finished playing around with makeup before a night out with some people from work. I played it pretty safe- so if you were hoping to see puce eyeliner or brown lipstick, then i'm afraid I won't be pleasing. However, I vamped up the smokiness on the eyes, layering Maybelline's Colour Tattoo in On and On Taupe, on Nars Yamal and the deep purple-y shade amongst others from the Naked 2 Palette. Standard statement brow, and a new nude lip combination that  I have truly fallen in love with.
Having spent waaaay too much on finding that perfect nude lip product, I stumbled upon a combination that's got me all a-flutter. Cue Chanel rouge Coco shine in 71 Style, and Revlon superlustrous lip gloss in Bellini. Both sheer, nude and when put together, angels sing and fairies giggle whilst strewing peonies across raspberry fields. Kind of.
I'm a self-pronounced lip gloss ditherer. Meaning I'll buy one, dither over whether or not to use it, then leave it to gather dust at the back of my makeup drawer. I've actually had this Revlon beauty for almost a year, and worn it a grand total of twice. But since I found it's super-nudey powers (oo-er) it's hardly left my bag/lips. I do love a good re-discovery!
