Get Down Tonight

Last month I ordered a couple more Bodyography Glitter Pigments, Prism (a duo chrome green/brown) and Get Down (a rosy purple). One of my favourite makeup colour combinations is purple and red and you may have seen me wearing these shades together before so I knew when they arrived I wanted to wear Get Down with a red lipstick. I thought it was fitting to wear it in a look that had a slight nod to the seventies as Get Down was part of the Disco collection that Bodyography released last year. 

I used the purple eyeshadow Backfire from Urban Decay as a base in a winged out shape and then applied Get Down all over on top and Eclipse Glitter Pigment just in the centre of my lid. I used the Glossier Colorslide in Disaster Class along my water line as I thought the deep wine shade went well with the warm purple eyeshadow. 

As usual with any look I do, but in particular something this full on, I tried to keep my skin fresh and glowing. I started off using Glossier Futuredew which has become one of my favourite ways to prep my skin for makeup. I don't tend to use primers as I don't find I need them but if I ever do use one it's usually something hydrating, especially at this time of year. This is where I find Futuredew excels. Like a lot of people my skin leans on the more dry side during the Winter and I love that this instantly makes it look and feel radiant and hydrated. Makeup goes on no problem over it and it doesn't make my t-zone any more oily than usual. Any time I wear this I get complimented on how glowy my skin looks so I know it's working. 

I used the Erborian CC Crème again in a light layer and then No7 HydraLuminous on top as it's not too heavy but just gave me extra coverage as my skin has been acting up recently and I have some marks from blemishes left on my skin. These two products applied in light layers over Futuredew gave me the most radiant looking skin but it didn't look or feel heavy and it lasted all day. 

On my lips I used the No7 Precision Lips liner in Red and one of my favourite lipsticks released this year, the Clarins Joli Rouge Lip Lacquer in Joli Rouge which is a classic cool toned red with beautifully flattering lacquered finish. I absolutely adore this lipstick formula and Clarins have nailed the shades, I can't recommend them enough! I actually wore this look to see Frozen 2 in the cinema which is quite fitting as it's very similar to Elsa's eye makeup, total coincidence!
