Peachy Plums Using MAC Mineralize Shadows and Aromaleigh En Pointe



Here's a look using the dark berry/plum color in the new MAC mineralize eyeshadow in Odd Bits from the Colour Craft collection. I really like the colors in this quad because the shades are pretty versatile, an odd mix (which reflects its name) of cool and warm tones.


I also used the dark brown shade in the Inter-View mineralize eyeshadow from Red She Said collection to deepen the crease.


My full size Aromaleigh shadows from the En Pointe collection arrived 3 weeks ago, and I was excited to use the lovely, feminine colors. I used Giselle for this look, a pretty peachy pink.


I also used Aromaleigh's Red drama queen liner for this look.


I also used Smooth Merge MSF for this look.

All itemes MAC unless otherwise stated.


Apply Bare Canvas paint on lid. Using Loew Cornell Maxine's Mop 3/8" brush (or the 239 brush), apply Aromaleigh shadow in Giselle foiled on the lid using Charged Water.


Using the other side of the brush, apply the berry color in the Odd Bits quad on the crease going down to the outer V.




Using the Sonia Kashuk blender brush, apply Cranberry eyeshadow on the outer V, then add the brown side of Inter-View. Blend the colors with the 224 brush.


Apply Vanilla pigment on the browbone using Stila No. 5 brush.


Wetline Aromaleigh Drama Queen mineral liner in Red using Sonia Kashuk bent eyeliner brush and Charged Water.


Apply Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Zero to tightline and on waterline. Using the Sonia Kashuk mini-crease/detail brush, apply Giselle on inner lower lashline, and Cranberry on outer lower lashline. Apply falsies (I forget the brand) and mascara. Although this is a very pretty color, this was my first time to use mineral liner with falsies, so it caked a little bit as I was running a second application of liner on my lashline. Pardon the mess!
