But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own.
Dressing up and awkward posing included!

Now this is, of course, no seasonal ad. But I had to prefilm due to the baby arriving, and the lovely Kay from “Shoes and Glitter” had requested a tutorial on this look, so I figured it would be the perfect choice.

Read on for a picture and the list of products I used.

And yes, I am well aware that I am wearing a nursing top. This is the closest I get to delicate strap dresses these days…

Products used as base

• Bobby Brown Corrector in “Light Bisque”
• Catrice All Matt plus Foundation in “Light Beige”
• Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in 1 “Fair” (Review)
• Clinique Loose Powder in “Translucent”
• Catrice Prime and Fine Professional Contouring Palette in 010 “Ashy Radiance”

Products used on eyes and lips

• MAC Paint Pot in “Painterly”
• MAC e/s “bamboo” (matte)
• MAC e/s “crosscultural” (matte)
• L´Oréal Super Liner in “Extra Black Gloss” (Review here)
• Lancôme Grandiôse mascara in “Black” (Review)
• MAC lip pencil in “Naked liner”
• Revlon Super Lustrous lipstick in “Really Red” (matte)

All in all a very 50s inspired look with matte red lips and velvet skin, something I really enjoy. And not that hard to recreate, so why not give it a go yourself, Kay? I bet it would look lovely on you!
