#fuchsia makeup

Makeup Mondays:

Makeup of the day:

Eyeshadow- 1985 from the Vice 4 palette, Cake from the Alice Through the Looking Glass palette, and Element from the Moondust palette, all by Urban Decay.

Mascara- Perversion by Urban Decay over Photo Finish Lash Primer by Smashbox.

Lip Color- Cosmic Metals Lip Cream in Fuchsia Fusion by Nyx Cosmetics.

I did this combo of shadows since I can never have enough sparkle. 1985 applied almost like a matte even though it looks like a fuchsia metallic shadow in the pan. Cake didn’t have enough sparkle when I added it on top, so I finally added Element from the Moondust palette (by brush so it was just the sparkles transferred and not the color).

Note: This Cosmic Metals Color makes a great dupe for Vice Lipstick in Big Bang. The main difference being one is a creamy lipstick with pink glitter, and the other is a sparkly metallic lip gloss. So two very different textures. The thing I love about this gloss is it sticks really well, lasting through my 4 hour shift with ease even, that's even with drinks of water and a snack on my break. If you don't like thick glosses though, the Cosmic Metals probably isn't for you. But if you can't afford a $17 lipstick, this is half the cost for a very similar look.
