Loving Right Now // The New, The Old and The Reliable

Bought myself the newly released Savvy blushes a while back, and inserted them into my daily routine without a second thought. The shades aren't crazily pigmented so they are quite easy to apply, which tempts me to buy them all for Mumma Bovary as well and expand her blush shade repertoire... The pictured shade is Plum, which is purple-toned enough to be exciting but also ties in nicely with most eye looks. Lately I've been alternating between a dark eye or a shimmery champagne, gravitating towards Dior Fairy Golds more often than not if truth be told.
When I haven't been rocking Dior, ye olde faithful MAC shadow in Jaunty makes an appearance. Stupidly limited edition (Hey Sailor collection, 2013) I don't feel bad about mentioning this absolute stunner as I feel I am simply preparing you for the day it is rereleased, and then you can all rush out and buy a pan. But save me one for a back up, okay?
 
Fulfilling the reliable quota for this post is the stunning Revlon Super Lustrous lipgloss in Pango Peach. It's become the go-to gloss shade now that I'm scared of the hot Melbourne sun melting my lippies, and it is super flattering with pretty much every eye look you can think of. Plus it is a favourite of Jess from The Belle Lumiere, so you just know it is a winner.

    That is such an intense color in the pan, it would definitely scare me a little bit.

    I'm currently loving burgundy/dark pink smokey eyes. I'm not sure it's winter appropriate, but it cheers me up.

      It's a bit more muted in person but is such a pretty plum colour :) I love the sound of burgundy eyes, I am lusting over MAC Cranberry and I think colours like that are totally winter appropriate :)

    Oh my gosh that gloss looks stunning! I have one of the Savvy blushes and it is so painfully pigmented that I actually find it really hard to use! x

      It is so wearable it is actually ridiculous, you really need to swatch it! I love pigmented blushes so much, I use the Real Techniques Stippling Brush with them and it is ace :)

    NARS Luster :p Jaunty looks so pretty - I can see why you would like it and reach for it so much. Seems like such an ideal everyday colour to wear on the lids :) I have never owned a MAC eyeshadow believe it or not! The shades I'd be most tempted by are Satin Taupe (lol) and probably Patina. Otherwise some kind of bronze shade. Ugh...

      I think Jaunty would be really pretty on you, I wish I had've bought two pans now I wear it that much. I have Satin Taupe and Patina but I don't really wear them at all, so I'll have to think more about what shades are the best from them :)

    That lipgloss looks amazing! Will have a look to see if we've got it here! Today was a sleek blush day, antiqued.

      It is so wearable and lovely, I am so glad I decided to buy that shade. I have been wanting Antiqued for so long, frustrating that the brand isn't available here ><
