Thursday FOTD Featuring Dior, Guerlain, NARS and By Terry…

I’ve had a wretched head cold for the past week but serendipitously managed a FOTD with some of my favorite products as of late.  Between tallying final grades at the college and incessantly blowing my nose, this was no easy feat!  Thankfully, it seems I am finally on the mend as I type this post!

Products Used: 

• Dior Airflash in Linen #201 (review of this newly-released shade forthcoming…it is a perfect match for NC 23-25 skin!) applied with a damp Beauty Blender
• Kevyn Aucoin Shade and Illuminate #01 applied on cheekbones for contour and warmth
• Guerlain Four Seasons Terracotta Bronzer in Nude 00 on cheeks for a pale, rosy flush
• By Terry Ombre Blackstar shadow in Bronze Moon on lids and lower lash line
• Rouge Bunny Rouge Feline Gaze eyeliner in Salome (a rich and glossy black) applied to my lower waterline
• Two coats of Guerlain Le 2 Mascara on upper and lower lashes
• NARS Light Reflecting Pressed Powder buffed lightly over entire face with Hourglass Retractable Foundation Brush to set makeup.  This is the first totally translucent powder I have utterly loved in awhile…it is invisible, yet completely refining (review soon!!)
• One coat of MAC Up the Amp lip color (a bright, creamy violet) mixed with a single coat of Tom Ford Nude Vanille lip color…this creates the quintessential violet nude lip.
• Copious amounts of green tea, Kombucha, Vitamin C, Sudafed, Mucinex, herbal sinus tea and Afrin nose spray to function…lovely, indeed.
