The Day in Beauty Vol. 22: The MAC Bangin' Brilliant Eyeshadows and Baby Steps - Makeup and Beauty Blog
Tin can I just heighten my crazy true cat lady coffee cup to you for your great advice in the comments on this post the other day? Thank y'all!
I read every single comment, and I've just been thinking about them and taking everything you said to center.
Honestly, sweets, what would I do without you? For all of these years… I don't even know. From makeup advice to baby advice to keeping my head above water. Thank y'all! You lot're wonderful. 🙂
So like I said, I've been taking everything yous said to heart, and last weekend I just did what I could handle, which was 20 minutes using some non-neutral shadows.
I used two from the new MAC Bangin' Brilliant collection — which, yeah, you may accept noticed that vivid teal and that neon yellow waving at you from across the room up there, LOL! — and gave myself twenty minutes.
I told myself, "You know what? If it turns out sloppy, fine. I oasis't done any fancy blending in a while, so whatever happens, happens. No pressure."
And this is what happened! I ended up with a lightly smoky, sort of purplish, coralish shimmery look. And fifty-fifty though I could've done it better, and the perfectionist in me is kind of poking me in the ribs, at least I did it, ya know? At least I tried something a little ambitious this time, and I'm happy about that.
So, the shadows here — part of MAC Bangin' Brilliant — they launched last month at select MAC locations and online. The release was called a "collection" (airquotes), but really, it was mostly just an introduction to some bright new Eyeshadows, Dazzleshadows, Powder Blushes and Lipsticks that were added to the MAC permanent line.
Here are pictures of 12 of the xiv eyeshadows, which are $16 each.
The underlying (albeit in your confront) theme hither is brights, and one of these days, hopefully soon, I'll become that shimmery teal shadow, Teal Entreatment, on my lids. 🙂
I used ii of the Bangin' Brilliant shades for this look — Fashion'due south Field Twenty-four hour period, which is like a pink coral; and Oh My Mocha!, which is a purplish dark-brown — and I didn't really accept any trouble with them with fallout or blending or anything like that.
I can't even begin to tell y'all how FAST I whipped those shadows on there because there was no need to exercise any cleanup. And then over again, these are shimmers, which are more often than not (always) much easier to blend than mattes. They just are.
So this is only to say cheers for your communication! I'g taking it easy on myself, ya know, trying not to push myself besides difficult, simply information technology sure was dainty to do something other than the same erstwhile winged liner, neutral lids and nude lip I've been wearing so much since Connor Claire was born.
Thank you, thank you, cheers! I can't say it enough.
Radio find!
Oh! Something else I almost forgot to mention. Final weekend I spent a lot of time listening to my new favorite radio station (102.1 "the throwback station," LOL!).
SERIOUSLY, SO OBSESSED. Basically, they play old-school hip-hop.
Granted, not all of the songs they play are from mode, way back, like, some of them are only 2 or three years old, simply that's OK! I'thou fine with that.
The other twenty-four hour period I heard them play SWV, then The Fugees, OMG! I was and then happy. So yeah, if you like that quondam-school hip-hop, check information technology out. You can stream it online, which I'thousand stoked about.
On that note, I exit you with this vocal, an old-school throwback that has been stuck in my caput for days, and now it'll get stuck in yours, mwhahaha! 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty aficionado,
Karen
