Soft Plum : how to picture soft EOTD ???







So yesterday, I looked tired so to fight back I decided to play low key make up...I am not that good a photographer so I had the hardest time trying to picture my EOTD. When a look is really soft, I doesn't show well on the camera. Any advice , ladies ?

Eyes :
TFSI as a primer
NYX lavender Jumbo pencil as a color base
Sugar dust from Annabelle all over the lid and to brow bone
Plum color from Faces cosmetics in the crease and outer V
Buff naked (Annabelle) as an hignlight color
L'Oreal telescopic mascara
MUFE aquapencil in plum (can't remember the number) under the waterline and in the outer corner to give some depth

Face :
Skintrue foundation (Annabelle) in medium beige
Revlon bronzer in shade 02
Angel blush from NYX

Lips :
Mauve lipliner (NYX)
Paris lipstick mixed with B52 lipstick (both NYX colors)

JOTD :
Anne-Marie Chagnon jewelry : my Xmas present from Santa-hubby-Claus. I adore what she does, she's a Montreal artist and she is so talented !!!

Hope you have a fantastic day and don't forget to enter my GIVE AWAY!

NEw hair cut and bright teal on the lids

a fresh cut was more than needed for my very long and very tired hair ...Sorry , no close up for the make up, the lighting was really crappish (washed out colors). I did a big NO-NO or fashion faux pas if you prefer, matching top and make up but liked it very much ;-)
What I used from what I can remember :
EYES : TFSI as a base, Gosh (love that dolphin) as cream color on the lids, a Teal color from the faces cosmetics, Twinks from MAC as a crease color, shroom from MAC as an highlight, a NYX matte beige color to blend Shroom and twinks, my beloved mascara : Marcelle volume precision.
BROWS : Benefit Browzing in dark
LIPS : a NYX round lipstick (not sure but probably PARIS, ...Paris Oh Paris, I miss you sometimes ;-). And a buxom lipgloss in Trixie (I am about to finish this one and I love it . Will rebuy for sure !!!
Skin : my own combination of Revlon colorstay and Gosh foundations , Revlon bronzer in shade 2, Vanilla pigment as an highlight and a Coastal scents blush in some sort of baby pink color (don't know the name : was a sample received with my 88 palette and I threw the little bag away...)
