Ok, ladies, get ur hubby to hide ur credit cards for awhile... haha, here's another FOTD...

http://faithtoh.blogspot.com/2009/02/si ... e-kit.html

Behold, the power of "Sleep In A Jar" and SN foundation! I actually look less splotchy. And i don't get the reverse-panda effect. You know, that's when the concealer covers the eye circles in real life, but when you take a photo, you get these white goggles.

Ok, I didn't use flash on the eyes (didn't fancy a blinding light 10cm away from my eyes) so i just took the eye shot without a flash... and the sparkly bits don't show up! I'm quite disappointed with myself.

Oh and a lippie (Tender) pic:

HI. In this pic I am wearing original formula foundation 18 ivory/1peach.
Original Perfecting Powder with a little SIAJ mixed in to add a little matte yellow-tone.
Blush-Maybe Baby. (love this!!!!!-probably my HG blush!)
Eyes-SN primer all over eyelid. Fire as highlight under brow, (this is the COOLEST color, may be my new fav!) Danny from lashline to crease, and Peacock as liner.
My lips are sporting Temptation, which I just ADORE, and if you are a fan of coral, run, don't walk to get!
Laurie

edited to change that I wear Danny just from lashline to crease, not brow. I'd look pretty darn awful if that were the case!
Summer,2012
90 Medium
5 BG
5.5 yellow

HG: Sheer Zinc Powder
and Equalizer
E/S..Spellbound, Adorn, and Juiced,
Lips: Roxie,Kinetic, Fascinate, Glacier, Nice Tan

There cannot be a crisis until next week. My schedule is already full.

Okay, first ever attempt - and believe me, I'm only putting this up in public to show the power that is Silk Naturals for making me look half-way presentable. You have no idea how rough looking the "before" shot was!

Image

Foundation - one whole f/s bag of medium Ivory with 2 scoops Buttery Gold
Concealer - more of the same dabbed on with a tiny little brush to concentrate it in places. Makes life so easy, 2-in-1.
Anti-redness blaster - Unblush
Undereye circles - Sleep In A Jar (think I was heavy-handed, it looks a bit yellow, but I was very tired)
Eyes - Heart Throb (most aptly named eyeshadow ever) with a wet-line of Basalt on the upper lid (just dampened brush)
Possibly the nastiest Avon mascara in the world - I got it free, I should have realised why... ;)
Lips - Gold Blush... ah, how I love Gold Blush
Cheeks - okay, so I cheated, it's Nars Deep Throat - I didn't know I was going to photograph it :oops:

Plase excuse the multiple chins, I've not long recovered from M.E. and haven't yet gotten back into shape :roll:

Helena- your skin looks flawless! I'm jealous!

Ladycattat- love the eyeshadow colours. And you've tempted me with temptation. :P I do like coral.
