Hey there,
When it comes to make up, there is nothing I like more than a good smoky eye look, (Well, maybe a contour, and a lippy actually). For as long as I can remember gray smoky eyes were my staple look, my absolute ‘go to’ glam look. That was until I became a blogger, and discovered there was a lot more than just gray eyeshadows and pink lipstick out there.
Just after Christmas, I went to repurchase my lost Mandarina lipstick, this gorgeous orange nude I am wearing in the pictures, and being on offer, (Something like buy one get the other half price) I picked up this Grey palette, (Which also comes in browns). It even came with a little ‘how to’ guide, detailing which shade of gray went where on the eyelid. Personally I could of just used the darkest two, or even three, but I followed the guide just to see how it all sat together. The colours blended in beautifully, but came across more blue than gray to me, (Maybe that’s just my eyes).
The Mandarina lipstick is a favorite of mine, not one that I wear often, but just by its colour, It is the perfect peachy nude, and I’ve got mine back in my make up bag just in time for spring. I wasn’t sure if the greys would sit nicely with Mandarina, but I think it works pretty well, if I do say so myself.
I’d never really brought from GOSH before, I remember seeing the brand for the first time in Superdrug quite a few years ago, thinking it was all a little too bright for my liking, (How wrong I was). What I like about GOSH make up, is that it comes across quite fun and innovative, its been around since 1945, (Which I was quite surprised to hear) but seems to be on top of the future trends. I definitely need to get my hands on some more of their make up.
What do you think of my smoky look? Would you wear a peachy nude lip? Have you tried any GOSH cosmetics before?
Lots of Love,
