Bold liner

Posted on March 30, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore Monday March 2. As I wrote in this post I’ve been experimenting with black liner, and as you can see it turned out rather bold. I quite like it though, especially paired with a nude lip.

MAC Bao Bao Wan

Posted on March 28, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

When I bought these MAC lippies online, I also bought this lipstick from the MAC Bao Bao Wan collection. It’s a limited edition shade, and it’s called Lavender Jade. When I saw it, I just couldn’t resist. It’s a matte lavender purple colour, and it’s so bright and so fun. Probably not the most wearable colour, but I love it! Oh, and the packaging is gorgeous too. Love the copper details.

Play with fire

Posted on March 26, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore Monday February 23. I’m wearing the Rimmel Provocalips in the colour Play With Fire on my lips, and I love it. It’s such a great deep, but not too deep, red, and I’m actually wearing it today as well. I think a colour like this looks great paired with a golden/bronze eye. I just think a make-up look like this really dresses up a casual outfit.

MAC Toledo

Posted on March 25, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

I had been waiting for the MAC Toledo collection to come to Denmark, and when it finally did I was lucky enough to get my hands on the three products I wanted. Before I go further into details about the products (which are all limited edition), I just want to quickly adress the packaging of this collection. It might not be everybody’s cup of tea, but I personally love it. I think it’s so cool and different and pretty, and I love the rubbery texture of it.

I was actually a bit in doubt whether I should get one of the ombre blushers from the collection, but when I saw and swatch this one in store, I just had to have. I got the colour Azalea Blossom which goes from a light baby pink into a gorgeous purple. It’s very different from any other blusher I own, and I think it’s absolutely beautiful.

On the other hand I was not at all in doubt whether I should buy these lip products or not. For once I actually fell in love with the lipgloss (or lipglass I might say) at first and then decided to get the matching lipstick. They are both in the colour Oxblood which is a very strange name for nude lip products. Anyways, the lipglass has a bit of a pinky/mauve undertone, whereas the lipstick is a (matte) brown nude with a slightly peachy undertone. Nonetheless, they look incredible together, and I’m really happy I bought both of them.

Simple wing

Posted on March 24, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. In late February/early March I experimented a lot with black liner, and this is one of the looks I did. I love the combination of a simple winged liner, long black curled lashes, and a pop of colour on the lips.

Lightscapade

Posted on March 21, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

In this post I mentioned that I had bought another highlighter as well, and here it is. I’ve been craving the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Lightscapade for ages, and about a month ago I finally bought it, and I’m so glad I did. It’s the most gorgeous pearly, champagne shade; perfect for fair skin. You can apply it very lightly for a subtle highlight, but you can also build it up for a more intense look. I know this is not the most affordable highlighter, but I definitely think it’s worth the money. If you’re looking for a good drugstore highlighter, I’ll recommend the e.l.f. Baked Blush in Pink Tastic.

Along the lower lash line

Posted on March 20, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. If you’re one of those girls who swear by neutral eye shadows, but want to experiment with colour, a great way of starting out is by applying a colour along your lower lash line. I used a dusty blue shade in this look which I think looks great paired with a soft, red lip.

Pink Tastic

Posted on March 18, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

There’s nothing like pretty, highlighted cheekbones to complete a make-up look. My favourite highlighter for the past year or so has been the Stila All Over Shimmer Duo Highlighter in Kitten, but I thought it was time to mix it up a bit in the highlight department, so I bought two new highlighters last month. One of them is this e.l.f. Baked Blush in the colour Pink Tastic. The name says it’s a blusher, but it’s definitely a highlighter. I’d heard so many good things about this highlighter, and it really is a great product and so affordable. It has a slight peachy pink tint to it, and you can really build it up if you want an intense highlight, but you can also dust it lightly over the skin for a more subtle sheen. I really like this highlighter, but I like the other one I bought even more, but more about that in another post.

I’ll call you

Posted on March 17, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’m wearing one of the Rimmel Provocalips (200 I’ll Call You) and I love it! They’re in general super long lasting and feel great on the lips when you wear the ‘lock and shine’ balm on top.

Subtle bronze

Posted on March 14, 2015 by Mucha-Lucha

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’m wearing the Maybelline Color Tattoo in On and on Bronze without any shadows on top; I just blending out the edges with a matte midtone brown and added a bit of gold to the inner conners. I think it’s such a nice, subtle, bronze look which looks gorgeous paired with a berry lip.
