Happy saturday! Lately I've had a hard time matching my foundation with my skin. I got sun-tanned and my body doesn't really matches my face. /// I got the Clinique Even Better foundation in the shade 07-vanilla but it didn't do the trick, my skin is far too yellow-toned for it, still it's a really nice medium coverage foundation. On my cheeks I've been using the Mac Mineralize Skin Finish in Stereo Rose (blusher) + the Lustre Drops in Pink Rebel (highlighter). When I first got Stereo Rose I thought about Nars Orgasm, but as soon as I got back home and swatched them side by side I realized Orgasm has a deep golden finish while Stereo Rose has more bronze in it . Still, in case you were lusting after Stereo Rose I'd recommend you check Orgasm. They're not a dupe at all, but the finish on the skin is quite similar. I noticed the other day, I had not used my UD Smoked Palette at all in the past few months, and it's mainly because I love wearing earth-toned eyeshadows. For this FOTD I wore Kinky all over the lid and under the brow, Backdoor in the outer corner blending it towards the middle and Freestyle on the inner corner. This has become my favourite makeup look over the last few weeks, I hope you like it too!

It's been so long since I did one of these posts! It's kind of FOTD posts but instead I call them Getting Ready! So today I had to get up really early to run some errands and I've been feeling really sick at the moment but I still managed to be on time and do my makeup! I hadn't worn Mac Snob in ages so I thought I did today. Snob is a cool toned pink with a satin finish, it has opaque coverage but it can be a little bit drying. I always apply lip balm before to prevent my lips from drying. On my eyes I used W.O.S, Naked 2, Faint and Venus from the Naked Basics Palette. I rediscovered a bronzer my mom gifted to me a while back, the L'oreal Glambronze in Brunette Harmony. I like using the darker shade for contouring. A new product I tried recently is the Urban Decay Naked Skin BBcream, which is good but I prefer a little bit more coverage (freckles GO AWAY!).
