FOTD 60's style

Today I felt like doing a 60's winged eyeliner look to go with my poppies print dress I blogged about a couple of weeks ago. I was going to town to meet with a friend over some freshly squeezed fruit juice and icecream and, because it's super hot and sunny this weekend, I was a bit afraid as to how my make-up was going to last. I didn't use waterproof cosmetics but I'm still very impressed how everything lasted!

My tan, a result of sun rays, fake tan and bronzer... I really like it!

I also used some of my July favorite products here, so you can see how they perform!

Face:
MAC Studio Finish concealer in NW20
Coastal Scents Honey Fair 1.2 Flawless Finish Foundation mixed with CS Concealer A (much darker shade)
NYX blusher in Taupe
CS blusher in Dare
Wet'n'Wild MegaGlo Face Illuminator in Blushing

Eyes:
CS Eye Poxy primer
Revlon Seashells cream eyeshadow quad (peachy shade to cancel out blue veining on my lids)
Eyeshadows from 78 e/s and blush palette
GOSH pen liquid eyeliner in black
Covergirl Lash Blast mascara

Lips:
MAC lipstick in Jest

Do you also do a winged eyeliner look in the summer or only reserve it for the fall/winter time?

    What a beautiful look, your skin looks flawless. Winged liner suits you, I'd say wear it year round.

    Wow, girlies, thanks so much to all of you, you're always so sweet! xxx

    @MizzWorthy: I'm also a great fan of winged eyeliner all year round! x

    @Victoria: Ehhnn, it took me ages this time, I really wanted to get both eyes even! x

    @hazeleyes and tackyblueeyeshadow: Thank you, hunnies! x

    @Daisy: Hmm, it seems I might be a trend-setter! Thanks, cherie :) x

    @CarolinaBetter: Thank you so much, sweetie! Maybe my new routine is actually working... And somehow orangey tan looks good on me, probably because this is how I naturally tan in the sun... x

    @Natalia (Little Rus): We discussed how Internet is destroying culture ;) But he's an avid blogger as well! And the raspberry icecream was so yummy...

    @Aisling: I'm sure it also looks fab on you! x

    @freckletone: Thanks for your comment, hun! Winged eyeliner rocks! x

    @loveaudrey: Jest doesn't get much attention from bloggers, but if you're not really nude lip girl like me (my lips are just too pigmented, I guess), this is a really nice choice for summer! x

    love what you did with the eyeliner!

    I do it too sometimes, but I don't make the line that long, too chicken haha!


    Have a great week!

    @Toothfairynotes: Thank you! I'm usually also too chicken to do a long line every day :) Today I did a winged eyeliner look using metallic green liquid eyeliner and I feel like everyone is staring at me in the street... Mostly men, so maybe that's a good sign ;)

    Cheers! xxx
