I think everyone has a certain make-up product they buy more of than any other. For me its anything to do with the eyes, my eye shadow drawer is bulging, my mascara drawer is not quite as bad but definitely getting there! I like to play up the eyes more than any other area.
On Friday night I was chatting online to a fellow make-up lover Nikky and we got to talking about NARS shadows, I had a sudden over-whelming urge to go swatching! So with it being only 7pm, I got into my little hairdryer of a motor and drove the 11 miles to Belfast, and more importantly House of Fraser.
It was bliss, empty but for a few other addicts. The girls were obviously bored and so I managed to play about with lots and pocket more than a few testers. Yay! I bought one shadow in HoF, NARS Fuji (a recommendation from Nikky), its a gorgeous army green with shimmer. I’ve played about a bit with it on the back of my hand already and its seems very versatile, highly pigmented, but equally it blends out very well into a much more subtle green if thats the look you’re going for. Any suggestions of what to pair it with greatly appreciated!
I then took a dander round to MAC in Debenhams and got a few things off my Wish List, namely Greenstroke Paintpot and Blackground Paintpot (to save me wasting my Blacktrack Fluidline) and Steamy Eye Shadow, a gorgeous bluey green with gold shimmer. Its a frost finish. I wore this today over the Greenstroke, with a bit of Print smoked into the outer third and crease. Love love love it, really brings out the brown in my eyes.
