WIBL #39: Old Friends
Sunday, February 22, 2015
Hey guys! I'm sorry that this has gone up so late today, but my head has been a bit out of it this past week and I'm still trying to get back on track. Anyway, let's get back to the post at hand, and today I've got a special edition of #WIBL for you! My spending ban has really been allowing me to get back to my stash and discover old favourites, and these three products have really stood out again, making them perfect to appear in this week's post...
NARS Ashes to Ashes e/s (£18):
Way back when (2 years ago?) this eyeshadow was all I could talk about - in my opinion this is MAC's Satin Taupe but better, basically the ultimate taupe shadow. The texture, colour, and ability are all spot on, making for a thoroughly enjoyable experience. When I was wearing this bad boy non-stop, I featured it in a post or two, so you can find a swatch of it here (apologies for the swatch post formatting - the new layout threw some things off!)
MAC MSF in 'Light Flush' (LE) (£23):
If anyone know how to do gorgeous shimmering blushes, then it's MAC. Their range of not only regular blushes, but also their MSFs are absolutely gorgeous, with the shade 'Light Flush' being case and point. On most this might be a little on the light side, but it adds a gorgeous rosey glow to my skin that is really hard to beat.
Laura Mercier Kohl Eye Pencil in 'Black Turquoise' (£17.50):
This LM pencil is truly something special and it's been a favourite that has been hiding in the shadows for a while. It's a blackened turquoise liner that adds something special to any eye look, and I've been using it a hell of a lot lately because it also makes my blue eyes pop!
