Blue smokey : colors and base !






This post is gonna be about how a color base cream can change your make up look ! As you can see from the pictures, This is a BLUE smokey....Well, I was supposed to do a GREEN smokey that day...How come when you put an Emerald like color as a cream base under your powder GREEN e/s, you end up with blue ! I probably haven't listened well in primary school when I was taught about the colors...
I already did a post about base with the Club look I did before but Club(MAC) is a duochrome....The color I used from the Storm Sleek Palette is a very dark green...I have no clue of what happened there but it was pretty so I accepted my fate ;-)

Eyes:
TFSI as a primer
HIP liner in TEAL (I see Emerald green but may be I am just color blind...)as color base
The GREEN color in the Sleek palette
The soft brown color in the Storm palette to blend in the crease
Helium e/s (Annabelle) as an highlight (How surprising !)
Graffiti e/s (Annabelle) as an outer V color : I absolutely adore this black e/s with blue looks, it's perfection !
Mascara : Telescopic from L'Oreal ...The last one from my stash before I can OFFICIALLY re-start my HG Mascara and You 're gonna be so sick of hearing me raving about it !!!

I hope you liked it and if you understand the blue-green weird thing, I am all ears !

  1. ha! see! the world wants to see you in blues! :-)))

    dont' know how that happens, but it does - I have grey and black eyeshadows that will turn blue on me, also depending on what color I combine them with.

  3. Very strange! Some of the blues in Sleek palettes aren't the bluest of blues though, are they? Maybe its the individual e/s?
