We got a foot of snow yesterday, and today it is 18 degrees, so it's not going anywhere. I took the opportunity to do some snow-inspired eye makeup and tromp about in the sunshine (and wear my purchased-for-East-Coast-winters long down coat and shearling snow boots, which was like welcoming back an old friend, ha), and here are some pictures!
Snow is sparkly and reflects blue, so I did a shimmery blue and silver-taupe eye.
In all pictures, I am wearing:
Eyes
UDPP
Sleek Original dark blue in outer corner and along lower lashline outer 2/3
Sleek Original bright blue in and above crease
Inglot 415 in the crease
Guerlain Les Fumés taupe on inner half of lid and along lower lashline inner 1/3
theBalm Sassy in inner corner and crease (where 'crease' is modified by 'inner', too)
Lancôme Hypnôse Star mascara
MUFE Aqua Brow 25
Face
MAC Matchmaster 1 mixed with Face Atelier Zero Minus
MUFE Full Cover Concealer 1 Pink Porcelain
Mix of silk, rice, and silica microsphere powders
CARGO Tonga
Lips
Le Métier de Beauté Purple Haze
I don't usually bring up color as high above the crease as I did for this look, but I liked it! It's bolder, but it was a lot of fun, and it gave me more real estate to play with. Do you ever do your makeup based on the weather? Do you enjoy snow?
