eotd: NYX herb and brown

After last weekend's craze with the super -failure NYX anniversary sale I remember of a look I did some time ago with their single eyeshadows in herb and brown. I've tried to do something with herb (deep olive shade with golden shimmer) but get out of ideas when it comes to work with it. This have been my only attempt and I like it, but I should have gone stronger on the eyeliner.

Orange, Gold, Brown and Green Look

Oh Gold! I have to leave you alone for a while LoL
Another look using gold and my beloved 120 palette! The orange is "spread your wings" from Aromaleigh Cosmetics [used it wet]

You can tell I luv gold! look

Yeah, that's one of my go-to colors, find it easy to incorporate to any situation or outfit! 

In person the orange looked more wearable but as always, my crappy camera doesn't translate my looks well, specially the ones I end up quite pleased with
For this look I used NYX jumbo eye pencil in gold as a base over my lid and a little above my crease.  As for the eyeshadows used orange, gold, black and bronze from the 120 palette.
For eyeliner used an Elf  e/l in brown.  Also tried to use some gold and then brown on my waterline but it started to irritate my eyes; had to remove it before taking the pictures.

Teal and Pale Gold look

This where the only pictures I manage to save from this look; my camera have been a pain lately :(
Here I used the 120 palette and the Mark "on the edge" hookup liquid liner


Don't have a clue why I took a pic of half my face? LoL

I'm stuck!

Recently I've been stuck on my eye makeup, the only colors I can think of are gold, bronze, black or brown
This sucks! specially when you have a 120 palette and a ton of other eyeshadows to choose from and create!
Have this happened to you?

For this look I used the 120 palette and Estee Lauder Pure Color Long Lasting lipstick in tiger eye.  My camera emphasized the lipstick pink undertone and in person its not so opaque

sorry for the hair all over the place & blurriness, I took this in a hurry before going out

decided to try the Elf complexion perfection and while it does cover redness nicely, makes me look super pale in pictures

silver, blue, black & double winged eyeliner

Done using 120 palette and mark hookup liquid eyeliner. As usual, did it only on one eye; just playing =D

Blouse inspired look

Look was inspired in this blouse, it has black, pink, yellow and green.
Not perfect but think I'm understanding better my eye shape and I'm practicing my liquid liner skills =D
Used the Manly 120 palette [green with gold sparkle, gray-is blue, black, pink], Mark liquid eyeliner in Cleo and [giving it a try] Avon astonishing lengths mascara in black noir .  I'm not wearing concealer or foundation as was just playing with my makeup

sorry for the highlight, my camera tends to exaggerate its intensity

Change of mind look

This was last month but forgot to post it.
I was going out and didn't want to wear makeup, but changed my mind and try to get some color on.  Didn't use foundation because my face was a little itchy; just a aloe-vera & oatmeal face cream and translucent powder
