LOTD: Smokey Moss Green with a Dash of Lime

By icyabstract · July 22, 2010 · 19 Comments ·

Lookie here!
I found photos of this Look of the Day that I somehow never managed to post. This was from quite awhile back (pre-auburn hair), I do like the look so belated or not I'll just post it up anyway!

I was in my neutral phase (since when I was ever out of it, right?) but I wanted to spruce up the look as well so I decided to throw in a pop of lime green.


Pardon the brows, looks like I didn't have time to fuss much with them during my final projects period.

Products Used:

FACE/BROW
Maquillage Lasting Stick Foundation UV
Lumiere Invisi-veil Powder (to set)

K-palette Brow Liner in 02

EYES
Etude House Proof 10 Primer
Benefit Creaseless shadow in Skinny Jeans
ELF Studio Eyeshadow in Mystic Moss
Revlon 12-Hour Colorstay Quad in Nude Elements
Rhomlon Eyeshadow in Black (tiny bit in outer corner)
28 Color Palette (highlight)
Silky Girl Funky Eyelights in Lime Green
MAC Powerpoint Liner in Engraved
Majolica Majorca Lash Enamel Glamour Neo Mascara

CHEEKS
I Nuovi Blush in Dolly

LIPS
MAC Lipstick in Shy Girl
Elizabeth Arden High Shine Lipgloss in Tropicoral

Highlighted products had been provided to me by companies/distributors.

With this post I do want to mention that I have been loving the Elizabeth Arden High Shine Lipgloss in Tropicoral. It's this one right here, from the goodie bag that Elizabeth Arden had given to me.

I find it really comparable to the MAC Dazzleglasses in terms of the way it looks on, the shimmer and glitter but it's not as thick and not as sticky. Though my dilemma about this is that I think this color is a limited edition release?

I had wanted to blog about it and do a comparison on this to MAC's Smile Dazzleglass, but figured if it was limited edition it might be a little evil to do that? Let me know if you guys want that comparison or if you know if this shade is in stock etc.

I have browsed the other Elizabeth Arden High Shine Glosses and it seems the finish is different with different colors. Some are cream, some have shimmer, it seems to vary.

Another mention, seems like Benefit's Creaseless Shadow in Skinny Jeans is getting a lot of love. See Chantana (everbluec) and Kim (ladeekim)'s recent LOTDs featuring this product.

Chantana - LOTF: Skinny Gazette
KIm - LOTD: Skinny Jeans

I do love that shade, it's great to slap it on alone or use it as a base color. I particulaly like using it under ELF's Mystic Moss eyeshadow since they are almost the same shade. Skinny Jeans tends to give Mystic Moss a stronger base and make it smokier-looking.

Thank you for reading!

LOTD: Soft Moss Gold (+ outfit)

By icyabstract · December 24, 2009 · 8 Comments ·

The title makes me cringe a little, but I'm running out of ideas.

This was a look I wore to a semi-formal family gathering sometime before the intensive school finals. I say semi-formal because it was a little lunch occasion held sometime after my cousin's wedding.This was the look that I wore, something rather neutral but yet at the same time I wanted to experiment with a bit of green.

Products Used:
FACE
- Revlon Beyond Natural Smoothing Primer
- Silky Girl 02 Liquid Foundation
- Za Pressed Powder (to set)

EYES
- Urban Decay Primer Potion
- Light Gold Eyeshadow - don't remember what I used
- Majolica Majorca Palette in BR742 (Dark Moss Green)
- 28 Color Palette (medium warm brown - the one I always use, lol)
- Revlon Colorstay Quad in Nude Elements (highligh shade)
- MAC Powerpoint Liner in Engraved
- Cover Girl Lash Blast

CHEEKS
- Wet N Wild Bronzer
- LA Girl blush in Subtle
- ELF Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in Luminance

LIPS
- Revlon Colorstay Mineral Lipglaze in Unlimited Nectar

Attire-wise, my mom made it clear I wasn't to show up in just jeans and a t-shirt. (pfft)
Since the location wasn't held anywhere grand - it was at my cousin's house - I wore a simple sundress. It's a dress and that's presentable and I wasn't going to show up in an evening dress or anything, cause that would just be weird.

Also I ditched the extensions at the last minute and threw on a headband instead.
Here's a shot of what I wore, along with my darling nephew (cousin's kid) trying to do the peace sign.

I love that little bugger.

But yes that is it. Thanks for reading (:
