The Compete Look with Natasha Denona Lila Palette + Hourglass Metallic Strobe Palette

| Base + Face. |
// BASE + FACE //
Clé de Peau Beauté Radiant Cream Foundation in O40 (swatches of all shades + my previous review HERE)
I recently rediscovered this medium coverage foundation and forgot how much I love it! With SPF 24 and a satin finish that stays in place for 10+ hours on my face, it’s perfection for weekends outdoor and long work days alike.
*By Terry Stylo-Expert in 4.5 Soft Beige (reviewed HERE)
Excellent to spot conceal and brighten up the under eyes, this is my new favorite highly pigmented base product.
*Marc Jacobs O!Mega Bronzer
I am super late to the game on this formula but am so glad I finally tried it; the soft, light tan powder bronzer feels almost creamy; it has buildable color payoff and a matte finish that is subtle and flattering. I highly recommend giving it a spin.
*Hourglass Metallic Strobe Lighting Palette
I applied a mix of Lucent Strobe and Pure Strobe to the high points of my face, focusing on the upper cheekbones for skin that has an ethereal radiance.
*Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Beauty Light Wand (reviewed HERE)
I used a bit on the bridge of my nose for a tender glow…by the way, this creamy highlighter is always in my makeup bag as of late.
*Glossier Cloud Paint in Beam
A touch of this sheer apricot hue blended on the apples of my cheeks creates a demure flush that makes skin look lit from within. This is my first Glossier product and I am definitely intrigued!
*Chantecaille HD Perfecting Powder
Whisper light and nearly invisible on the skin, this powder buffs aways visible pores and unwanted shine…it’s a veritable filter.

// EYES //
I applied the *Natasha Denona Lila Palette (also available at Sephora) in Amara (all over lid), Magnetic (in the crease), Magnolia (as a transition color toward brow) and Juneau (at the brow bone to highlight); the look wore flawlessly (no creasing, no smudging, even in humid seaside weather) for well over 9 hours.
*Gucci Smoky Impact Eyeliner in Iconic Black*
A touch in my lower waterline for additional impact.
Lancome Monsieur Big Mascara (reviewed HERE)
Still impressed with this ultra-dark, volumizing and lengthen formula…two coats and I’m good to go all day.
*Plume Science Brow Pomade in Ashy Daybreak
This all natural cream formula–infused with nourishing Plume Science Serum–enhances the shape and volume of brows, adding long-lasting dimension and definition in seconds. Ashy Daybreak is a versatile taupe shade that works well with medium-dark ash brows like mine.

Dior Addict Lip Glow Pomade Color Reviver Instant Oil-Gel Care
I purchased this beguiling lip formula last month while in Philadelphia and am still impressed with its silky hydration and non-sticky, glowing pink veil of color; the gel-oil texture is unlike all other lip products in my arsenal and it works so well under matte formulas (as worn below), over nude lip liner or even as an overnight treatment.
YSL Tatouage Couture Liquid Matte Lip Stain in #7 Nu Interdit and #11 Rose Illicite
Lightweight with lovely color payoff, this new formula has a soft matte-meets-cream finish that–in my experience–lasts for hours without drying out the lips. #7 Nu Interdit is a rosy beige nude (worn in the images at the end of this post) that is positively effortless, thereby seamlessly blending with a variety of makeup looks and #11 Rose Illicite is a cool medium pink for moments when a bit more color is desired.

I need them both in my life. So pretty <3
And, I don't even have to say, you look FABULOUS.
I'm absolutely obsessed with looking at pictures of Natasha Deanna palettes. They are unbelievably gorgeous but they're so pricy. Such an internal struggle.

SUCH stunning swatches! Those colors are absolutely a treat to look at- even if those types of colors will never find their way to my eyes 🙂 Your skin is always so ethereal.
