Hardcore Velvet

I placed a Glossier order before I went on holiday which included a new set called The Ready Set which includes a Milky Jelly Cleanser, Boy Brow and a Balm Dot Com all of which I needed to repurchase. I also bought the Colorslide Eye Pencil in Hardcore Velvet which is a deep teal shade that I thought would be great to wear for Autumn and Winter. In the airport in Nice I bought a Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Extrême Lipstick in the shade Rouge Obscur from the new Noir et Blanc collection, it's a beautiful rich berry/burgundy shade in a matte finish. I wanted to pair the two products together as they both have a velvet finish and I thought it would be a good contrast against my holiday skin with all my freckles. 

I used Double Wear Light Foundation so that you can still see my skin, I also used the Clarins cream bronzer for a sun kissed look which I thought would add to the contrast with the dark matte lips and teal liner. I applied YSL Touche Éclat and double highlighter to bring extra glow and light to my face and the L'Oréal Paris Paradise Mascara I bought in Duty Free too as it gives lots of volume and length which is exactly what you need with a liner like this. I used the tiniest amount of powder just under my eyes as I wanted my skin to be as luminous as possible. I really love how this look turned out. It's so simple but I think the colours work well together especially against my fresh and freckly post-holiday skin. The liner is such a unique shade I can't wait to try other ways of wearing it.
