The 'classic' Look

Hello Lovelies!

Today I present you with another creation of mine - A classic 'cateye' & red, red, red lips :)

I am usually not a gloss fan at all. I hate the sticky feeling on my lips, I hate that they run into the lines after a while and so on... BUT, I was a big brave girl this time and tried out my new MAC Cosmetics Tinted Lipglass from the Brooke Shields collection, and I must say: I <3 it! It is super pigmented and lasts for ages, not to mention the divine smell of it! The colour 'Knockout' also goes really well with a lot of bright red lippies, so it's definitely worth every penny!

I placed it over Eulenspiegel's Professional Face Paints as I like to use them to get an intense colour base. ~ My Tip: Don't apply your gloss to the very edge of your lip but about one mm inside of your lipliner/lipstick/lip contour to prevent it from feathering out too quickly.

So, as it so happens, even a gloss hater like myself *cringe* was converted... Oops!
