Hello, sweeties! It's me again!
It's time for a new Zodiac inspired makeup. As part of my 2018 resolution, I'm showing using more and in new creative ways the makeup I own instead of buying new items. That is why I challenged myself to create twelve different looks with the BHCosmetics Zodiac palette, one for each sign. Today, I created a Libra look for the "Zodiac challenge".
The shimmery colour for "Libra" zodiac sign is such a fantastic and special shade that will transform any look you do with it into WOW! As I applied the colours I realized that on the skin they look quite different than what they show on the pan, it was so much fun using them. I hope you like it!
I want to state clearly that I don't really care for horoscope or Zodiac signs in general, and I don't know much about it, I just know that each sign roughly corresponds to a month of the year, and as there are twelve of them I thought it would be nice to make it a challenge to present you one new look each month. Libra sign starts on September 23rd through October 23rd, that's about all I know ;)
In the gorgeous BH Cosmetics Zodiac palette, the colours that correspond to Libra are matte dark brown with a purple tint, but when applied to the skin this colour appears like a dark mauve!! The other Libra colour is a foil baked shadow in rich reddish-pink colour, which has such gorgeous warm magenta and plum reflections, it is absolutely outstanding!! I decided to use both, but I also added another colour from the palette to create a softer transition. I hope you like the makeup I came up with ♥

The colours for Libra are two statement colours that will glam up any look you want to create. I think they are very intense and would look very editorial on very pale skin tones, but on black or brown skin this would be ABSOLUTE BOMB!
I decided to do an intense and edgy eye look for Libra, which I paired it with a brownish-rose lipstick that is now a classic in the makeup world as it is the "Lolita" shade by Kat von D! I also used quite a pigmented and shimmery blush by NYX cosmetics. I applied a very thin line of liquid eyeliner just because my eyelashes are so short and I didn't feel like wearing falsies.

This look came out so UNEXPECTED! Yes, because I never imagined that this colours would look so vibrant once applied! I am super happy with the colours, although the closeup photos show that I haven't blended enough the matte colours, oops. I think this lok would look so great AS IT IS on a deeper skin tone person. What do you think?
Next month I'll be doing a Scorpio look, the colours look perfect for Fall! so stay tuned for that.
