This duo is my current favourite, it's the one I reach for on most days as it's just so darn useful. I use it in the day time for a subtle smokey and I use it at night for an INTENSE smokey eye (btw, it is spelled "smokey" or "smoky"? I want to insistently ignore the spell-check red lines because "smoky" just doesn't look right...). Perfect for Autumn with all the browns and blacks I tend to wear.

LOVE it! I think i'm going to have to add this to my growing stash of make up XD
ReplyDeleteI have heard a lot of raves about NARS Rajasthan, and not surprisingly, it looks gorgeous on you, Nunu!
ReplyDeleteLove both your day and night look you created with it! ;)
wow beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteWho cares how it's spelled, all it matters is that you're smoking! hehe!
ReplyDeleteOooh! I love the Innocence, Beware lipstick color! I might have to look into getting that before my job interviews. I'm looking for a color that'll be subtle enough that it'll be acceptable for (fairly/quite conservative) Japanese interviewers but I don't want to just go with nothing or look like a dead person with too nude of a color.
ReplyDeleteThe looks are great! I love that the night look could be for a nice dinner out (so one doesn't end up looking like a whore who's getting paid to look like a respectable date).
:)
Love the night look! And I think it is spelled smokey?
