Tangerine Tango Look


Did I mention that the Pantone colour for this year is called Tangerine Tango? Well I pulled out all my orange colours, started to play around with them and this is what I came up with. 
Face:
Revlon Beyond Natural smoothing primer
Sacha cream to powder foundation in Perfect Caramel. Applied with foundation brush from Coastal scents 22 piece brush set
Coastal Scents concealer palette
L’Oreal Translucide loose powder in medium

Eyes:
Ambrosia Cosmetics Amplified by Arlene Villarule as eye primer. Apply lightly with fingers all over eyelid up to brow bone.
Ambrosia creative colour Serene Sunset (matte vivid orange). Applied over lid area and slight up into the crease.
Ambrosia creative colour Havana Cream (soft matte caramel brown). Used to blend out harsh edge of Serene sunset.
Ambrosia cosmetics lust dust Pulse (sparkly rich orange) Applied near tear duct area
Halener Rustique loose eye shadow in Antiqued (sparkly brownish orange) Applied under lower lash line
Milani Liquif’eye metallic eyeliner pencil in Black. Applied to tight line and waterline
MAC False Lashes Extreme Black Mascara. One coat.
 
Rest of the look:
Milani Baked Blush Luminoso (shimmery peach). Applied to cheeks
Milani mineral blush Luminous (soft simmery peachy pink with gold). Applied to highlight nose.
Lip Shine by Sacha in Summer Blaze (soft, shimmery orange lip gloss)
 
What do you think of this Tangerine tango look? The eyes are bright but the overall look is soft enough for me to venture out with this. I’m still looking out for my bright orange lipstick.
Happy Tangerine Tango!

  1. Luv the simplicity of the look,colors are really soft and complementary, just thought that u could have mimicked the winged look with the liquif eyeliner to a smaller degree to match the winged look of the Serene Sunset...lovely look though.

    1. Hello Dawn, I feel like we are BFF's now! Thanks for the comment though. I was just playing around with my makeup, didn't have a clue where this would lead me. Would you believe I am a little intimidated by winged liners? but I'm practicing though.

  2. Love it. I agree with Dawn but beautiful nonetheless. If u want to try an orange lippie then check out Mac's morange or for a cheaper dupe Milani's Mandarina l/s. Its really pretty and pigmented.

    Here my swatch

    1. Oh thanks for the recommendation. I have been wanting morange but when i think about how often i would probably wear it, then i should go for a cheaper dupe. I'll try to find the mandarina if I can! Thanks

Revlon Sculpting Blush Palette in Pink

I have never been so disappointed in a Revlon product before… until now! Maybe I chose the wrong colour for my skin-tone but there are so many other things about this palette that makes me think I should have bought some more lip butters instead. Let’s start with what I do love about the palette. It’s simple black compact that has the same sleek look as the other Revlon photo-ready items. I find a highlighter, contour shade and blush in one palette is a great idea too. Having more blush colour in terms of quantity with smaller sections for the highlighter and contour makes perfect sense since I will use more of the blush anyway. The colours as they appear in the pan look perfectly coordinated to work with each other. You get a small brush with soft bristles in your kit to ensure you can just pop this in your bag and you’re off.  In the sunlight Now here is where it all goes downhill like Jack and Jill with their pail of water. Let’s start with the swatches which made me think twic

Marble Hearts: BCD Nail Art Challenge (Day 13)

Today's challenge utilizes the technique of dry water marbling to create your pattern. I'm doing a twist of it but doing a needle drag i.e using a needle or any fine point for just a smidgen of swirl to the colours used.
