Hello, sweeties!
How are you today? I haven't posted in the past two days because I've been experiencing some difficulties with my blog code, the server, and whatever it is, is making my blog load very slowly. I am zero for anything related to webmasters, so I have my people working on it. I'll also seize the opportunity to give my blog a makeover, so stay tuned to see the final results!
Meanwhile, I've prepared for you a new Zodiac inspired makeup. This year, I decided to use more, 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 Sagittarius look for the "Zodiac challenge"the last one of this challenge! yay!
The look in green I came up with, called for a burgundy lipstick, 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. Sagittarius sign starts on November 22nd through December 21st, that's about all I know ;)
The colours that correspond to Sagittarius in the wonderful BH Cosmetics Zodiac palette, are an orange-y matte red and a foil baked shadow in green. I decided to use both, but I also added another two colour from the palette to create a more interesting look. I hope you like the makeup I came up with ♥
Face/ Visage:
- Wetnwild Photofocus concealer in Light Ivory
- Wetnwild Photofocus Foundation in Golden Beige AND Soft Ivory (I mix two colours as my skin gets paler in the cold season!)
- Makeup Forever HD powder
- Wetnwild Photofocus Foundation in Golden Beige AND Soft Ivory (I mix two colours as my skin gets paler in the cold season!)
- Makeup Forever HD powder
- Givenchy Croisière Healthy Glow Powder #2Douce Croisière
-NYX Professional Makeup Machinist Highlighter Duo
Eyes/Yeux:
- Urban Decay Primer Potion Anti-Age
- BH Cosmetics Zodiac palette
- BH Cosmetics Zodiac palette
- Essence Super Precise eyeliner longlasting + waterproof
- Gabriella Salvete Panoramico Urban protection Mascara
- Gabriella Salvete Panoramico Urban protection Mascara
The colours for Sagittarius in the BH Palette are not what I would usually pick to pair together, so doing this makeup was quite a challenge!
I decided to do a shimmery green look with a touch of burgundy on the lips, and make it work for the Holiday Season ;) If you look closely you can see I also used a dark purple on my eyes, which is the matte shade for Libra; also a touch of the highlighter included in the center of the palette.
I chose the lovely liquid lipstick by Wetnwild that was recently launched, and I was a bit disappointed! The colour is awesome, but it is soooo drying on the lips!! It has a beautiful satiny metallic finish, but it applies patchy, so I had to apply three coats to make things even. But wearing three coats, was super drying on my lips skin and looked terrible after a few hours! I love Wetnwild regular matte liquid lipsticks but this Limited edition metallics, are not the same quality! So be warned.
I also used quite a pigmented and shimmery blush by NYX cosmetics. I added liquid eyelinerand black mascara.
Except fo the remarkably dry lips, I am quite happy with this look and I think it could be a nice option for the holiday season, a Christams party, or any Party! What do you think?
