Ellis Red Lip FOTD & W3LL People Narcissist Foundation applied


It's not often that I sport a red lip, but I do have a few shades that I really like and Ellis Faas Milky Lips L201 is one of them. Here I have taken a little bit and patted it into the lips to get more of a lighter stain finish.


I am also wearing the W3LL People Narcissist foundation (no.5) all over with a little bit under the eyes. I have used some MakeUp Forever HD powder ontop just to give a slightly more matte finish. As you can see there are a few spots still a little visible, but this doesn't bother me so much as overall the finish gives a more naturally even look to the skin, and also rather importantly seems to match better to the neck area without making my face look pale.



Eyes:
Famous by Sue Moxley Trio Eyeshadow - Mocha Latte (the mid shade on inner half, the darker shade on outer half of lid)
Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner - to line upper lash line
Max Factor False Lash Effect Fusion* - upper lashes
Chanel Crayon Sourcils - 60 Noir Cendre - a little on brow arch

FOTD: Plummy Eyes & New Barry M Lip Paint 150 Pink Suede


Browsing the aisles in my local Superdrug, I came across some new shades of Lip Paint in Barry M in my favourite lip category of 'naturals'. Currently they are on offer so I got two shades for £6.99. 

Pink Suede (150) is not really a pink, it is a warm tan nude shade which is quite creamy and well pigmented with a silky matt texture.


I really like this as it leans warmer it doesn't look like too pale a nude shade.

Complete Look:

Face:
Diorskin Forever Compact powder -040 (around sides/forehead)
Everyday Minerals Peach Color Corrector (centre of face)
Ellis Faas Concealer - S205 (undereye)
MAC Sculpt & Shape Powder - Accentuate/Sculpt
NARS Blush - Sin
MUFE - HD Powder

Lips - Barry M Lip Paint - 150

Eyes
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Eden (I think this has made the colours look slightly paler as it is quite a pale, opaque base)
Fyrinnae - Daemon's Tail (all over lid)
Inika Mineral eyeshadow - Autumn Plum 20 (outer corner)
MAC Sculpt & Shape Powder - Accentuate (under brows)
Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner - Oil Slick to line (top and slightly on bottom)
MAC Shadestick - Butternutty (waterline)
Korres Eyebrow pencil 01 
17 Wild Curls Mascara - black (on top & bottom lashes)
