Lovely Periwinkle Look

I wanted to wear Meow’s Skeptic today because it’s such a lovely color and I haven’t gotten to wear it very much. I haven’t used my Urban Decay Frigid, so I decided that I’d work that into the look, though I was sorely tempted to use Aromaleigh Phaedra.

Shade Descriptions:
Skeptic – bright periwinkle with copper and pink iridescent color changing fire
Frigid – deep purple with blue sheen
Hint – MAC Seedy Pearl clone, light pink/lavender shimmer

Eyes:
Too Faced Shadow Insurance
Meow Skeptic – on lid, in crease, on browbone, applied with Medusa shadow brush, middle lower lash line, applied with chisel detail brush
Urban Decay Frigid – outer vee, crease, applied with ecoTools shader brush, outer lower lash line, applied with chisel detail brush
Silk Naturals Hint – on browbone, applied with ecoTools highlighter brush, and inner corners of eye applied with chisel detail brush
Gel Eyeliner in Black Out – upper lash line
Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Yeyo – lower water line
Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Zero – outer edge where lower lash line and lower water line meet
Aromaleigh Lash Primer
Covergirl Lash Blast Luxe in Black Platinum
Lorac Brow Pencil in Dark Brown

Cheeks:
Hard Candy Blush in Living Doll

Face:
Aromaleigh Glissade in 1CL+Alabaster

Lips:
Aromaleigh Minty Coco Chip lipbalm
Too Faced Borderline Lipliner in Clear
Urban Decay Lipstick in Trainwreck

Amanda from Beauty Frugalista tipped me off to the Revlon 75% off sale at CVS, so I went and picked up 3 more of the Revlon Matte lipsticks.


So now I have all the Revlon Matte colors I want. I think I am only missing the Mauve and the Coco.


Here are swatches of all the colors.

Also, I received my Hi-Fi buy one get one free New Years order.

Shadows:
In Bloom – a gorgeous hot pink with a little sparkle
Dirty Word Witchcraft – sheer black with color-shifting iridescence
Sacrelicious – deep black with bright purple glitter
Things That Cannot Speak – a deep magenta with lots of fuschia and indigo glitters
Don’t Forget the Violence – shimmering bright blue with lots of turquoise sparkle
Troubled Water – intense, deep teal with lots of hologram sparkles
Distortion – a mega-bright chartreuse pearl with green and gold shimmer
Hail Caesar – a very pale champagne-beige pearl finish

Glam Rock Eye Glitz:
Fat Tuesday – purple glitter
New Age – teal glitter

Star Glimmer Gel:
Shooting Star – aqua iridescence
Pop Star – violet iridescence

Did you partake of Hi-Fi’s Buy One Get One Free sale? Did you pick up any Revlon Mattes for 75% off?

    Love the look! Those colors are purty. :)

    Dang! I have Really Red, but I'd always been eyeballing In The Red…and now..Nude Attitude!

    And yay HiFi! Fear the Nobodies looks flippin' awesome. :D

    SO PRETTY. Frigid is just…. gah. *rushes off to scribble it on the wish list*

    I hit up that 75% off sale like a woman possessed. I picked up all the Revlon Mattes, among (lots of) other things. I'm thinking I'll do a "drugstore product only" post one of these days. I grabbed the new Lash Stiletto Voluptuous mascara and it's pretty decent- not much volume (go figure) but for length it's quite nice.

    Hi Julissa,
    Thank you! I'm LOVING this look.

    In the Red is a darker red and I think it looks nice. Glad you're liking the swatches :)

    Hi Amanda,
    The only reason I didn't pick up Mauve it Over and Cocoa Craving is because I don't think I'd ever wear them.

    I'm still trying to find the PERFECT mascara. Really, the best one I've tried so far for me has been Benefit's BadGal Lash mascara, but I want to see if I can find anything that looks better, but I may not be able to.

    Thank you for sharing the sale!
    And yes, Frigid is pretty!

    Oh, god, Skeptic is lovely. I didn't think much of a lavender with a copper highlight from the description, but it's a gorgeous color on the lid.

  6. Phyrra January 11, 2010 at 11:18 pm #

    Hi Lindsey,
    I know it doesn't sound good, but I swear it's an amazing glowy color! Glad you like it ;)

    I LOVE SKEPTIC! It's the only Meow color that really wows me. Looks gorgeous on you! I've decided to start wearing lipsticks, and I did get Pink About It today after seeing the lovely swatch on your blog. It looks really good on me, thank you for the swatches! I don't think I would have tried it otherwise. I hope you love the mascara, it's my favorite. It can get a little clumpy, but it makes lashes HUGE.

    Hi Heather,
    The entire Friday the 13th collection really wows me from Meow. All of the colors have that otherworldly glow to them. I'm so glad you love Skeptic. It might just be my favorite eye shadow color by Meow.

    Yay glad you picked up Pink About it!

    I'll be interested in seeing how the mascara works.

    Oh PRETTY! You look lovely in purple!

    I just got my Hi-Fi order today too and posted swatches of my colors on my blog. They are lovely! This was my first order from her and I am sure it won't be my last! =D

    I got that blush too and I love it! It looks really good on you! Your looks never fail to amaze me!

    BEAUTIFUL!!!! I think the phaedra would have worked well too! And dangit I missed the sale….I'm going to go to CVS today and hope for the best.

    I did partake in the buy one get one free from Hi Fi and In bloom was one of the colors I ordered. No Revlon…I always buy the stuff and never use it even though it is reasonable.

    Pink pout is so pretty! I hope they stock this range in sg but I think it's going to cost about 29SGD here.

    I absolutely love periwinkle — and you pull it off beautifully! You are so amazingly adept at blending color and making it look effortless.

    Okay, I am definitely going out to buy some of those Revlon Mattes today; probably in Pink Pout, Strawberrry Suede (my fave), and Really Red. Thanks for the heads-up about the sale :)

  14. Taryn January 12, 2010 at 9:47 am #

    Love the periwinkle! And Hi Fi cosmetics? I haven't heard of that brand and now of course I'm going to have to check them out.

    That Distortion shade is just gorgeous!

  15. Grey January 12, 2010 at 11:15 am #

    I'm waiting on a Meow order and it cannot come quick enough.

  16. Lisa Kate January 12, 2010 at 12:38 pm #

    Love this look! Periwinkles are my fave!

    I haven't hit up CVS yet…Maybe later today?

    I missed the Hi Fi sale as well. But new colors are coming so I'm excited!

  17. Phyrra January 12, 2010 at 6:11 pm #

    Hi Lillypug,
    Aww thank you! Yes, I think Veronica makes some gorgeous colors.

    Hi Thia,
    I hope you get some :)
    Thank you!

    Hi Krista,
    I've been pleased with this revlon, but i think it's because I don't really own a lot of lipsticks, I own more glosses than anything.

    Hi Suzieduck,
    That's crazy! These colors that I got for 75% off were $1.99 USD.

    Hi Cracked Oblivion,
    Thank you! I figured a blue-purple would deepen the crease nicely but not be too dark. You're welcome ;)

    Hi Taryn,
    Let me know what you think of them :)

    Hi Grey,
    Oh god, I know! I have one coming soon, once they start shipping again.

    Hi Lisa Kate,
    I hope you find some colors you like!

    This is gorgeous, it complements your hair and the lip colour so nicely :)

  19. Phyrra January 13, 2010 at 9:42 pm #

    Hi SilhouetteScreams,
    Thank you!

  20. Saila January 15, 2010 at 1:49 am #

    Ooh, purples! You look gorgeous!

    I missed the Hi-Fi sale but I'm not going to miss the next one!

  21. Phyrra January 15, 2010 at 12:07 pm #

    Hi Saila,
    Thanks :)
    I'll definitely let you know when I next hear of one!

  22. Ghost January 15, 2010 at 2:19 pm #

    People who don't like purple are just wrong in the head – lol
