Pinks Using Aromaleigh En Pointe Mineral Eyeshadows
Sunday, June 14, 2009
So here's part 2 of my Aromaleigh En Pointe look. I'm wearing the pinks from the En Pointe collection, and I am loving it!! I love how romantic and very feminine the pinks are. My favorites are Giselle, Aurora and Pique, the colors I used for this look.
I used one of the Aromaleigh Drama Queen mineral eyeliners (the Red one) for this look. I just got this loot together with my En Pointe samples, and I really love the eyeliners! They really are drama queens and make your eyes the center of attention. They're gorgeous. The Rocks! Sonic eyeshadow in Flowersofromance was a freebie since my order reached $35.
I added just a tiny bit of Slowburn to make the transition easier and more gradual from pink to dark brown (MAC Inter-view mineralize shadow).
I used MAC Inter-view mineralize eyeshadow trio for this look.
I used MAC Purple Rite lipstick in this look and this is hands-down my favorite purple lipstick of all! Yes, better than Lavender Whip, in my opinion!
Here's a step-by-step. Alll products Aromaleigh unless otherwise noted.
Apply MAC Butternutty shadestick all over lid and lower lashline. Using a fluffy brush, apply MAC paint pot in Girl Friendly on lid.
Using Loew Cornell Maxine's Mop 3/8" brush, apply Aurora foiled on the lid using MAC Charged Water.
Using the other side of the same brush, apply Giselle damp on outer lid.
Using the same brush, apply Pique on other V and crease. Apply a little bit of Slowburn and blend into Pique and Giselle using MAC 224 brush.
Using Sonia Kashuk blender brush, apply dark brown side of MAC Inter-view mineralize eyeshadow trio.
Blend the colors in using the MAC 224 brush.
Wetline Drama Queen in Red on upper lashline.
Using the MAC 227 brush, apply MAC Soft Petals shadow on browbone to highlight. Apply Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Zero to tightline and on waterline. Using the Sonia Kashuk mini-crease/detail brush, apply Aurora on inner lower lashline, and Pique on outer lower lashline. Apply mascara.

Truly lovely make up, those shades look really pretty on you! You're very talented ;)
I always look forward to your looks and step-by-step instructions. I do have one question, though. What is the difference between foiling, and just applying damp?
Very pretty! DQ Red is awesome on you.
i love how the liner and the colors go well together :) i wish i'd gotten liner in that color too. i wasn't sure how red would look but now i know! looks great :)
Vanessa- aww thanks for the kind words!
:)
Nicole- when I meant "foil", I really mix the minerals and the mixing medium to create a thin paste before application. With applying it damp, I just re-use the brush without adding mixing medium. That's what I usually do when I foil first, then add the second eyeshadow dry, but technically it wasn't that dry because the brush was damp. Hope that made sense!
Phyrra- thank you! Just recently tried the drama queens and as usual, fell in love with them.
Ida- thanks! Red is not totally red, reminds me of Bare Escentuals Black Ruby but more shimmery. :)
