Since Carol requested a FOTD with MAC Cremesheen Lipstick in Lavender Whip, here is my take on an all-over lilac look.
What I Used
* Make Up For Ever HD Invisible Cover Foundation in #120 applied sparingly
* Jane Magical Mushroom eyeshadow to fill in eyebrows
* MAC Lovely Lily Pigment and Helium Pigment on eyelid
* MAC Penultimate Liner in Black to line
* Taiwanese Lashes on top
* Marbelized side of MAC Mineralize Blush Duo in Moon River lightly on cheekbones
* MAC Cremesheen Lipstick in Lavender Whip applied lightly topped with MAC Kitschmas pigment on center

Hey Phyllis!
Love this look and your blog. Would you be able to do a demo on how to use MAC’s penultimate liner to create that winged look? I’m having a bit of trouble doing it on myself.
Thanks in advance!

phyllis, how do you feel about foundation primers? do you use them?
also…did you choose that eye shadow color because it matched that purple tint of the lipstick?
03/25/2009 at 6:14 pm

03/25/2009 at 9:24 pm

Love the lavender-ness! You seem to have really nice skin from looking at your pictures….you should show us some natural pictures! And, let us in on your skin regime. Just a suggestion! =)
03/26/2009 at 9:14 am
you look beautiful! What contacts are you wearing?
03/26/2009 at 10:35 am
Tina,
Yes I have used foundation primers before but since I only wear foundations for the FOTD looks and on special occasions, I don’t use them much anymore.
Here is an old entry on primers that I wrote:

Oh and that look is HOT!!!!!!!

I’m loving the eyes, as usual, but am not too sure about the lip color. I feel like it might be a little too cool for your skin tone, but that’s just my opinion.
03/26/2009 at 10:21 pm
I love the color combination … and the contact lense
color is perfect against the pink lips!
This is just what I wanted for my next look! Thanks babe!
03/26/2009 at 10:24 pm
oh wow i like this one. the lilac looks really nice!
I was wondering, in your opinion, what kind of make up would go best with a little black dress?
03/27/2009 at 2:43 pm
i love the eyes! your beautiful!

Hi Phyllis,
What shadow did you put on your lower lashline? The pinkish-grey colour?
You look good, as always!
