Askmewhats Version: UDPP Box of Shadows Look

Hello pretty peeps! How's the weekend going? Mine is good. This will be the total REST weekend for me, I doubt if I'll be going out! I've been shopping and walking so much in our Shanghai trip and all I want for now is raise my feet up and rest!

As seen on my previous post I've received my early Christmas present from lovely blogger friend Gracie and talk about excitement! I was able to play with the colors right away! And I LOVE them!

Here's the look that I've done!



And let me show you a diagram on products I've used
and where I applied it on :D




On Diagram: (I've used all UDPP e/s Protest, Smog, Perversion and Midnight Cowboy)
  1. Protest - applied all over the lid except the brow bone area. Also used this as a liner
  2. Smog and Perversion- using Smog to define my eyes and added a bit of Perversion to deepen the crease
  3. Midnight Cowboy - to highlight the brow bone and inner corner of the eyes

Finished look









Products Used ---

Face
  • MAC Studio Fix Foundation NC30
  • Thevi eyeshadow PINK - as Blush

Eyes
  • MAC Paint Pot in Moss Scape (Thanks Mhean for correcting me)
  • UDPP Book of Shadows
  • MAC Coquette - to fill brows
  • In2It eyeliner in Black
  • Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara
  • Stila Smudgepots in Black
Lips

  • NYX Round Lipsticks in Jupiter

And here's a smile for everyone!




My favorite poem that I always think of if I'm tired or times that I want to give up!
Thanks Devi for posting this on your blog and reminding me about it!

The Poem is called "Don't Quit"
and my favorite line is....

"REST IF YOU MUST BUT DON'T YOU QUIT!"

I know some of us are getting tired in life at the moment...
It's ok to say you're tired...
It's ok to rest..
But it's never ok to QUIT!

  17. That olive green shade is so pretty! You pull it off so well! (Unlike me...) Yesterday I just woke up and got a bit bored, I painted my eye lids olive with a touch of gold...then I fell back asleep...when my roommate was about to get out and saw my face...

    "What is going on!?"

    I am ditching dark color on eyes altogether...

  18. Hi Grace, I don't own MAC Fluidlines but I've used it a couple of times from a friend. I still go for Stila because the Smudgepots is more on gel consistency then it finishes up with a nice "chalk" finish (but not scattery). So worth it!!! I've used it to different people and they all love it! :)

    Ai, great weekend on your side :) take care

    Bittenbefore, sure! The brushes I used here are the Prestige blending brush, smashbox eyeshadow brush and MAC 222 :) that's it :)

    Connie, thanks dear! I never thought of me as smokin' sexy LOL

    Devi, yup it is a nice inspirational poem, we memorized this during my First Aid training and I was doing lunges and sit ups when we memorize this! LOL

    Teeyah, thanks sisterhood! :P

    Citrine, come on! Don't ditch dark e/s YET!!! I've had the same experience!!! I guess it really took time for me to be able to do darker colors..don't give up girl! :D Don't QUIT :D
