Today was kind of a boring look from the Sephora face chart. I didn't mind too much as I was feeling super ill. I ditched the nude lippie in favour of something with a little more colour, and instead of plain black liner I used one that had silver shimmer in it. Which then didn't come out as dark as the face chart suggested it should be. And then I added a nude colour to my waterline.... But it was inspired by the Sephora face chart, so I figure it's close enough! Looking forwards to the dark smokey eye tomorrow.
The close up of my eye is a bit crap cos I had to do it in the car, so lighting wasn't great, but there's not really that much to see anyway...

Today's Illamasqua theme was all about the lips. I'm quite glad, as I've got a streaming cold, and don't think I could manage a full face of quality makeup! This is my first time doing two-tone lips. I don't think it turned out too bad. The hardest part was getting the edges tidy, and I reached for my trusty skin base lift concealer for that.
