MACup Look – Cranberry with some pinks

I had planned so many looks as I was little free but then the climate isn’t good enough to post looks.

As I was going through my stash thought of doing a review on my favourite color but for that wanted to share some looks first. Here are the colors I used in this look … MAC Expensive Pink , Cranberry , Satin Taupe , Da Bling and Femme Fi …

The lighting was super awful today so you might not find the pics appealing although as i did step by step thought of sharing these pics with you , the looks is inspired from one of the looks mentioned on my mentor’s site.

Applied Smashbox Photo Finish lid primer all over the lids

Applied MAC Da Bling eyeshadow in inner 3rd of the lid

Applied MAC Expensive Pink on middle of the lid

Applied MAC Cranberry on outer 3rd of the lid and in the crease

Applied MAC Satin Taupe in the crease

Applied MAC Femme Fe on brow bone to highlight , Applied MAC Blacktrack on upper lash line

Applied MAC Feline Kohl on lower lash line and finished with Smashbox Lash DNA Mascara

Applied MUFE Elixier as Primer , Applied TheBalm time Balm concealer and Clinique super Balanced Foundation in # 6 Linen applied with MAC Fix + and using MAC 109 Brush.

Applied MAC Plum Foolery Blush and Applied MAC Craving Lipstick

One my all time favourite eyeshadow Cranberry , a perfect plum color I must say … what would you like to pair the awesome color with ??

    Nice look Rash! Thanks for using Plum foolery..now i know wot it wud luk like on the skin.. 🙂 One question i had was when u use 3 shades on the eyes how do u blend it such that all 3 shades get showcased? usually wudn’t all 3 shades merge into one?

    I wud call this luk as ‘The Principesa’ look..reminds me of a barbie doll! 😉

    • rashmi says:

      hahaha Zara 😀 i really hope you liked this look 😀 😀 … thanks again for lovely name ….
      i asked this from Christine and she said don’t over blend just stop where you feel there is no harsh line …
      i think that’s what i do 😀 yeahh pretty much that ..

      if the colors are too contrasting i pat the color with 239 and then use clean brush like 217 to blend in between … like purple and blue look i did

      in this look all the colors are from same color family and there wasn’t much difference so i used only 239 to pat the color …

      i hope you loved this 😀 😀

      • Zara says:

        I do love this..Its totally girly and even ur kurti is all matching-matching! Hihi..

        Thanks for the tip Rash..i know i can always ask u guys my doubts without any fear of being made fun of 🙂 Now even ill try blending with 3 shades 🙂 🙂

        • rashmi says:

          aww 🙂 thanks Zara for being here 😀 😀 …
          and yeah its easy infact gals use 5 colors on eyes and 6th on lower lash line god thats not me for sure 😀
          i so want to but ?? ….

          • Zara says:

            Cool! 5-6 shades?? For an unpractised person like me it wud mean utter chaos..my eyes wud luk like a 3yr olds painting!!

            But do try it sometime na..wud like to see how it turns out..then the rest of us can also try it out in peace.. 🙂

          • rashmi says:

            i havent used their SLS free shampoo but i guess H2O shampoo are also good and are available on Urban touch site … i saw that today and will buy one for sure 😀
            and what is super skin concentrate ??
            i need to see that 😀

          • Zara says:

            I did like the color..lekin corals ke saamne sab phike pad jaate hain..hihi..i want to own alllll the coral lippies and blushes in the world!! I know, ye to too much ho gaya lekin kya kare, CRAVING to craving hai 😉 😉

          • Zara says:

            Hey Rash, have u used H2O products? how r they? I hav used only one of their clay masks and it didn’t do anything gr8 to my skin..have no idea bout their other skincare and haircare stuff..

          • rashmi says:

            i have not used but have seen it in NBC Khar and the prices were quite high so thought will buy online and will start with their shampoo :d
            i saw today only will buy may be 😀

          • shilpa says:

            i m not a coral person……but i want all different shades of lippies……….all mac,mufes and sab……
            imagine i dont have a single foundation………

          • rashmi says:

            yeah and you always ask which TM ?? buy a TM Doctor 😀
            but then considering your good skin days i think they can rest for a while isnt it ??

          • Zara says:

            Haan, i agree with Rash…ive seen ur pics on FB and u have very nice skin (touchwood)..u dont seem like u need foundation..a nice TM shud do .. 🙂

  5. shilpa says:

    shukar hai yahan sephora india mai nahi hai………………warna zara ,tera aur mera kya hota……..

  6. shilpa says:

    zara……….gel liners……i only like mac cause of texture…..but the color range of inglot is to die for…..so if u want a particular shade go to inglot…….but now i m eyeing mufe teal gel liner also….as i have not seen such a vibrant tel either in mac or inglot……just imagine..inglot even has red,orange and yellow eyeliners……….
    chal i’ll short;list for u….
    1.black…..mac blacktrack…its lighter than inglot but texture is nice and can also be used on water line…
    2.brown…mac dip down
    3.teal…mufe …but i have not used it til yet….
    4.purplle….mufe ya inglot…..again i m not aware of mufe texture
    5.green….inglot…
    6.turquoise….mac siahi….it was le
    7.grey..inglot
    8khakhi,orange,pink,yellow red..etc etc….sab inglot….
    9.blue……i m neither hapy with inglot nor with mac waveline……..i need to check out bobbybrown denim ink and mufe blue….
    but u r happy with ur waveline….right…/
    hope this list helps….

        • rashmi says:

          noo sware … even i want to buy Inglot gel liners and that day saw MAC one also the brown you said 😀 😀
          its super awesome color but again resisted …
          but i must tell you i dont have any brown liner like MAC one 😀 😀 so might buy …

          • shilpa says:

            arey mac guru…the clinique gel liner in brown that u have is quite similar to mac dip down……..waise bhi brown kitna use hota hai…..i wud suggest skip mac dip down….and buy constructivist…;-P

          • rashmi says:

            ohh not dip down i want Rich Ground … its awesome red brown shade isnt it
            and yeah i even got my Smashbox Brown gel liner as well … its very dark and looks nice 😀 😀

          • shilpa says:

            rich ground…..r u sure mac guru….???plz before buying it….try iot on ur eyes…..as richground shade in on sheerer side…..like waveline……it might look nice in a swatch……but doesnot show up nicely on eyelids…..waveline and richground behave similar in that manner………so be cautious…..and dont be impulsive……

            and smashbox…..chalo jaldi se review and fotd karo…..

          • rashmi says:

            hahahah yeah i will review it soon 😀 😀
            i never thought that way coz that was the first time i swatched it and loved the color …
            although am planning to buy Bobbi Brown gel liners so will short list that D: 😀

        • Zara says:

          isme kaahe ka embarass? its a very useful list. i for one am very thankful..itne detail main its so helpful..easy for me to refer to as well 🙂

    • Zara says:

      Wow! this is extremely impressive and very useful Doc..Thanx so much…will copy this in notepad file and refer to it..I want purple and teal..I have never tried Inglot b4 so m very keen to picking up something from there..how much do they cost btw?

      MUFE wala teal is fantastic na? such a pretty and bright shade..I wanted Siahi too but at that time my shaadi ka shopping was going on and had so much to buy so had to shortlist aur shortlisting me Siahi chala gaya 🙁 now m repenting y i did that..

      Yes, m happy with Waveline since it shows really well on my eyes 🙂

      • shilpa says:

        zara..dont be sad. mickey contractor collection is going to be permanent………so chill……tab le lena sihai…….siahi looks awsome on water line as well……dont miss next time…

        • Zara says:

          btw, how much does inglot gel liners cost?

          • shilpa says:

            sorry u asked earlier also…inglot liners cost around 660 bucks…..if they have increased price lately then i m not aware…..

  7. sonu says:

    thats awesome FOTD although its not a Fashion blog so I guess no need to comment on clothes 😀
    loved you makeup Rashmi and keep up the good work

    • rashmi says:

      thank you so much for compliments and glad you understood its not Fashion Blog 😀 😀
      some people are more bothered about other things and ignore the efforts

  8. Isha says:

    Loving this pink look Rashmi…very nice. Its been a while since i did a pink look myself…had forgotten how lovely they are. Checked my stash and realized i don’t have this lippie…sniff, sniff…how did this one slip by…will def pick it up. Btw how do u find the mufe primer? I was on a lookout for one…am starting my quest with Korres…let see how that one fares on my super sensitive combo skin…have u tried it?

    • rashmi says:

      thank you so much Isha 😀 😀 i love hearing from you and am so glad you gave heads up 😀 😀
      I was never interested in using Elixier but then coz i thought its too costly and finish up and guess thats what they are meant for to finish up and see th eresults D:
      its just AWESOME and i am not going to exchange that with any other thing 😀 😀 …
      will review it honey
      i have not tried korres … i have so many things from the brand but never felt like giving it a full shot 🙁
