Smoky Blue FOTD

    I was in the mood for a smoky look for the first time in ages (I had a funny turn towards neutrals a couple of months ago) and so I decided to play around a bit with a few shadows that had been sorely neglected. I'm pretty happy with the result and found a way to get the best out of one of the most awkward shadows in my stash.

   On a side note my new found neutrality paid off in that I finally have a lipstick to wear with looks like this that isn't too over the top or intense for day time.

    Sadly the photos don't do justice to the incredible beauty of Midnight Mist, possibly the world's most awkward eye shadow but that's sunshine for you! 

    If you don't fancy the hefty price tag of Peche Passion ( actually a little birdie told me it's soon to be discontinued along with most of the original Rouge Volupte Line), Rimmel's Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in number 16 is a good dupe, though the formula lasts much longer and isn't nearly as glossy!

   On a side note  I've been pondering including where and how I used the products as an aside to the product lists in posts like this, what do you think?
