PSL-Insprired
Yes, I went there. No, I do not like Starbuck's Pumpkin Spice Lattes.
Yes, I know that we're not officially even in the fall season.
But since everyone seems to have an opinion about the PSL - including a blogger who changed the recipe and a fellow grad school classmate completing a brilliant marketing project on the subject - I thought I'd share what makeup comes to mind when I think of the sickeningly sweet beverage (IMO...just saying).
For the skin, I kept it clean with tinted moisturizer, concealer, bronzer, and a bit of highlighter on my cheekbones. For lips, I went with Whirl lip liner from MAC, NYX Cosmetics Butter Gloss in Creme Brulee, and a little dot of MAC's Sugarrimmed Dazzleglass gloss in the center of my lips.
On my eyes, I started by prepping the entire lid with MAC's Soft Ochre Pro Longwear Paint Pot:
Next, I buffed MAC's Amber Lights shadow from the lash line into the crease:
Then, I tapped Galapagos by NARS on the outer corners (blend well!) and under the bottom lash line:
Using my pinkie, I applied a bit of Cream from the Lorac Pro Palette to just the center of the lid and blended outward:
Finally, I lined the top lash line and bottom waterline with MAC's Coffee eye pencil ("The Coffee." Yes, I did.).
