Here are two quick and easy looks using the NEW Loreal Colour Riche Mono Eyeshadows!

Step 1: Prep the face with some primer, even the complexion with foundation, cover the dark circles and spot treat with concealer, and set everything with powder.

Products I used: Primer- Monistat Chafing Relief Gel Powder, Foundation - L'oreal True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation, Concealer- It Cosmetics "Bye Bye Under Eye" Full Coverage Anti-Aging Waterproof Concealer, & Setting Powder - Revlon PhotoReady Translucent Finisher.

Step 2: Shape the brows with L'oreal Brow Stylist Definer which happens to be the perfect dupe for the popular Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz.

Step 3: Place the transition shade on the crease and blend it out. I used L'oreal Colour Riche Mono Eyeshadow in Cafe Au Lait, a matte chestnut color. This is one of the better shadows to work with.

Step 4: Pat on an all-over-lid color. I used L'oreal Colour Riche Mono Eyeshadow in Pain Au Chocolate. It is a beautiful pearl finish taupe. This is one of my favorite colors from the collection. It gives just enough shine to the eyes to stand out but not too obnoxious or adolescent. 

Step 5: Brighten up the brow bone with L'oreal Colour Riche Mono Eyeshadow in Paris Beach, an intense matte beige shadow, but it is easy to blend soft.
 Then apply some liquid liner to define the eyes, and lengthen and voluminize the lashes with some mascara. The Liquid Liner I used is the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Trooper and the mascara is L'oreal Voluminous Miss Manga Black Angel.


Step 6: Further brighten up the eye area with a champagne gel-pencil liner from L'oreal Silkissime called Champagne on the waterline, and in the inner corners apply a brightening, cool-tone white-shimmer from L'oreal True Match Lumi Powder Glow Illuminator in Ice.

Step 7: Finish off the face makeup with some contouring with L'oreal Infallible Pro-Contour & Highlight Palette in Light, and a neutral pink blush from Milani Powder Blush in Tea Rose. I highly recommend this contour & highlight palette. The powders blend beautifully, giving your skin a nice subtle contour and highlight look.


Step 8: Add more shine and brightness to the eyes by patting on a shimmery frosty-white shadow from L'oreal Colour Riche Mono Eyeshadow in Petite Perle. This shadow is a perfect topping of shimmer on top of other shadows.
Add a nude gloss, I used the L'oreal Infallible Pro Matte Gloss in Nude Allude, and the Neutral Makeup Look is complete!

Now let's transform the look to a more colorful look by adding two additional products!

Step 9: Wet a brush and foil up a bright blue, pearl-finish shadow like the L'oreal Colour Riche Mono Eyeshadow in Grand Bleu! This is beautiful when used wet!
Add a deeper crimson red color to the lips (Kat Von D Studded Lipstick "Mercy") and the Pop of Color Look is finished!

Here are the two looks side by side. Which one do you prefer? Neutral or Pop of Color?
Let me know in the Comments!
Happy Wandering! Alice

Hi everyone! Today, I have another Holiday Collection to share with you all, and this time, it's all about Smashbox Cosmetics! Smashbox's Drawn In. Decked Out. Holiday Collection is one of the best holiday sets that has come out this year in terms of being able to try out permanent products from the brand without the bulky, over-extravagant packaging. The artwork on the packaging is done by Aritst Ann Strumpf, and each set comes with stickers displaying her artwork as well. From the collection, I picked out two that interested me the most, the Shadow + Highlight Palette Set and Be Legendary Lipstick & Lip Mattifier Set.
