Drawing the Human Body, Literally, With the New Make Up For Ever Aqua Matic Pencils - Makeup and Beauty Blog

The new Make Upwardly For Ever Aqua Matics, $21 each

I think I'yard going to start calling makeup shopping "art supply shopping." That way, when I get something new and sneak it into the house in my XXL purse (NOTE: this is a good style to avert the, "Do you really demand another pink gloss?" convo with El Hub), I won't exactly exist fibbing, since pencil-shaped makeup actually is a thing these days. 🙂

I be back before long, hun! Gotta stock upwards on mah art supplies…

Instance in bespeak: the new Make Upwardly For Ever Aqua Matic twist-up eyeshadow pencils ($21 each), which look every bit at habitation on a makeup vanity or an easel.

Time to describe!

And if El Hub asks what I'grand doing, I'll simply say that I've taken up drawing (…on my face up, haha!).

These long-wearing creamy shadows can exist used as eyeshadows or equally eyeshadow bases, and they're supposed to be smudge-proof, waterproof, creamy and creaseless and stay that manner all mean solar day long without fading.

"This middle shadow pencil glides on and stays put. The unbelievably blendable texture includes silica, so it applies effortlessly onto the eyelid and won't transfer. This highly-pigmented, waterproof, smudge-costless shadow delivers firsthand, intense color payoff. A retractable twist-up mechanism allows for quick and mistake-complimentary awarding, and a sharpener makes information technology convenient to have this product to go for touchups."

Currently at that place are 10 shades…

Swatches from the left: Diamond Black D-x, Satiny Warm Chocolate-brown S-60, Diamond Aureate Gray D-12, Iridescent Pop Purple I-90 and Iridescent Electric Bluish I-22

Iridescent Turquoise I-20, Iridescent Lime Green I-xxx, Metallic Golden Taupe ME-50, Metallic Pinkish Beige ME-54 and Satiny Flesh-Colored Pink Due south-52

Surprise! — I'chiliad totally feeling Satiny Warm Brown S-60 and Metallic Gilt Taupe ME-l. You lot know how I am about my everyday neutrals. 🙂

I also like that MUFE included some brighter options for gals and guys who like wearing colour. I see a ton of possible color combinations with Iridescent Turquoise I-20 and Irised Pop Purple I-90.

I oasis't tried these on my lids yet, but from the swatches, they look and feel like Laura Mercier's fabulous Caviar Stick Eye Colours.

Major potential here!

Oh, and considering I'm hands amused (as you lot know), I wanted to share — while I was at Sephora, I sprayed a little of the new limited edition version of Dolce & Gabbana'south Light Blue, Escape to Panarea, which for some reason I go along thinking is called, "Escape to Panera," every bit in the casual dining chain.

Go it? 🙂

I've probably mentioned this before, but I love, Honey Light Blue. I wore it on my wedding day, and then it holds a special identify in my middle.

This newer version seems deeper and muskier, with warm vanilla notes that I don't actually get from the original.

It's different — almost like something I'd be inclined to wearable in the cooler months, whereas the O.G. Light Blue seems similar a truthful summer scent to me.

If yous love warm vanillas, requite it a sniff.

Anywho, now I must "Escape to Panera!" Just kidding. 🙂 Hope you lot had a good Thursday.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty aficionado,

Karen
