My typical weekends are rarely boogie nights but today I wanted to spice up my make up look for a birthday party I was attending.
I started with MUFE 92 and wore it with MAC deep purple pigment....hated it
I took it off, and then tried it with MAC violet pigment...hated it
then with violent grape....at this point I was frustrated and all my eye brushes needed a good wash(note to self: invest in more eye brushes)
I really don't know how to make MUFE 92 work :(
Since I was running late...dinner was at 9p.m and I was still deciding what to wear at 9:10p.m
I went for a look that never fails me and decided to wear a bright lip color : NARS Boogie Nights.
I have to thank Seymone as she compiled a list of must have products on her facebook fan page "Reflections of Beauty. I've never tried NARS lip glosses so her seal of approval was very important to me.
At first I was scared it might be too bright, but I am loving that lip color. I am including only one picture as the flash was too bright in most pictures.
and...shame on me..I got to the restaurant at 9:45p.m..gasp...
well I couldn't find anywhere to park .. so it's not really my fault ..lol
Here's what I used:
Face
MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Deep dark ..it is not working for me as it used ..lately it gives me an ashy finish :( I really hate the fact that Select Tint was discontinued
Bobbi Brown concealer in Golden
A little bit of Bobbi Brown Pressed powder in Golden Orange
Cheeks: I was so undecided. I started off with MAC Dirty Plum, then opted for MAC MSF in Petticoat and MSF in Blonde( a little bit)
eyes:
MAC stud pencil on eyebrows
MAC Constructivist paintpot (on lid)
MAC Rubenesque paintpot as a brow highlighter
as a liner, instead of the usual MAC eye pencil in Teddy, I decided to use Powersurge
isn't it gorgeous??
Maybelline XXL mascara in very black
lips:
NARS lipgloss Boogie Nights
MAC creme liner in Velvetella

Purple is a nice color and it suits you well, love the scarf and the hair do. I hope you had fun.
merci tres chere :) bisous
Elégant, franchement j'adore tout: le maquillage, les cheveux, l'écharpe...Je pensais que certaines couleurs n'allaient pas aux peaux noires foncée et à chaque fois tu me prouve le contraire sans en faire des tonnes, toujours en finesse.
I like the result. It looks good on you and the scarf really sets it off. I've been trying to get my hands on that MUFE 92 for forever. Thanks for the reminder.
I love that lip color on you beautiful.
Very Pretty!! I need to look into Boogie Nights. It looks fabulous on you
You should wear color more often. This is gorgeous.
Where are you???
You look stunning. That lip color is really cute. YOu'll eventually get it with the the #92. It took me a while, but you'll find out how to make it do what it do.
thank you ladies! I really appreciate the feedback! I'll definitely wear more color and start experimenting with more blues/ greens. Over the break I'll watch more youtube video and learn more about application
