One of my twitter girlfriends suggested that I do a smoky Amarante look (this is *daytime* smoky) so here it is.

Moonwalk creme eyeshadow - as a base
Amarante - lid
Aurelie - crease
Persian Kitten - to blend out crease
Fiona - brow highlight
Oyster - to soften inner corner
Chocolate Mousse/Endangered indelible liner mixed - lower lashes
Firewoman rocks topped with Pixie - cheeks
Frosted Beige NYX - lips

I really like this! You're hair is great, b.t.w., makes you look younger imo. There are JUST to many blondes walking around! I rarely use Amarante or Aurelie, but this is just amazing. Dang you, now I want moonwalk. I tend to be scared of khakie (can you believe that? Everyone loves that color!) But with that Alloy/Amarante look I did, maybe I shouldn't be scared of khakie if I use enough contrast (like the heavy warm-toned bronze liner I used in my look). Thanks for showing us moonwalk!

  • Aww thanks, Tally. And just so you know, Moonwalk doesn't look khaki to me. It's definitely more taupe/pewter with khaki undertones that give it a bit of warmth. Makes a nice dark base if you don't want to use Carbon. I should swatch it and post it.

  • Thank you, Loida!

    I love this one! It almost looks like a light pink fading to the brightness of Amarante. The lip choice is perfect with it, too.

    Totally beautiful in every way! You look great!

    **********************
    My coloring - Fair, naturally curly dark red hair, freckles (light golden), combo to oily skin, use 1W Glissade and/or Voile, although I can and have worn 1Y, 1Y/L, and 1Y/L/00 at different times. Would describe my coloring as neutral - not a classic Autumn, not really a Winter, maybe more of a Late Fall?

    You're such an inspiration! I actually tried to copy this look, but it didn't turn out.

    I'll try again, though, because I think it's just beautiful. Smile So impressive and flattering.

    I love your hair color, Robyn. Would you say it's honey blonde? That's how I would probably describe it. I see some reddish tones, too. Since our skin tones seem to be very close, I was thinking of trying this hair color, too. Do you mind telling me what color it is?


    Foundation: 2y voile with a tiny amount of 2yl sometimes. (Can also wear 2W)
    Lip Favs: Lollipop, Wallflower, Pinafore, Limbo, Zest
    Blush Favs: Rococco, Tawny, Epitome
    Eye Favs: Damask, Lola, Fiona, Ariel, Longing, Fairy, Seaglass, Shell, Willow, Marigold, Lisianthus & more to come!

    Just lovely, Robyn. Your metallic looks always look so gorgeous on you. Smile

    I love my makeup bold, and while I think neutrals look good on others, I hate them on myself.

    Thank you. I think the metallics are my way of being bold without using over-the-top colors.

    Thank you, Kittycat. It's definitely NOT blonde. The flash from the camera (combined with the fact that the section in the front of my hair that was the most blonde in my "before" state caused the brown color to fade) makes the color appear a bit lighter than it is in person. It's actually a medium reddish brown. I don't know the "actual" color since my stylist did it for me. He used three different colors and foiled them in.

    In case you didn't see my original post, this is how my new color started out:
