I have been browsing Instagram a lot lately, like, an insane amount of lot, I got addicted like a pathetic junkie and I live for this app now. Thanks to it I discovered so many amazing make up artists, I felt like an even more pathetic shit, but most important I found a lot of inspiration !
What do you guys think of that blue ? I wanted something different that what I usually do, a discreet smoky / cut crease with orange colors, so I went straight for electric blue, and all over the lid this time, not just in the crease or at the lashes line. I actually had to bring the color pretty high up, since my very hooded eyes hide everything when they open. I started with a regular nude cut crease, then used a blue navy and a tip of black in the outer corner, some electric blue on the mobile lid, and a tip of pearly white in the center of the lid, to bring some light. I did not blend it up to the brow because I thought it would look better bold and trash.
I have to admit, it took me 30 minutes just for the eyes, and then I had to leave for work so I didn’t have time to remove it, and in the street I was like, Oh My God, everyone is staring, I look like a dirty hooker, this is way too vulgar ! But then I got to work and it turned out my colleagues loved it ! I guess I am just not used to it, question of habit probably.
Obviously, with that kind of eyes, no lipstick ! Or a nude, really nude. I choose one from Rimmel (if really you want the reference please write me, but it’s in my bag right now and you can’t imagine how lazy I am to go and pick it up) that was pink with a beige undertone, slightly glossy, very discreet, perfect for that. Light blush, no bronzer, a bit of highlighter too on the top of the cheekbones. Tones of mascara though ! And well defined eyebrows, as always.
I am very curious to know what you think of this ! Don’t hesitate to share your opinion with me, and to share the post if you liked it. Tomorrow I come back with a more subtle make up, and in the week end, hopefully, a nice recipe. In the meantime, bisous bisous !

Les photos du maquillage donnent très bien, la couleur est magnifique mais sur les yeux je dois plus faire attention au ras de cils inférieur sinon ça me fait des tous petits yeux.

Merci beaucoup ! Si tu mets de la poudre au raz des cils mais en extérieur, en l’estompant légèrement, voire si tu mets du crayon blanc sur la muqueuse, ça t’agrandi les yeux :) t’as déjà essayé ?
