I can't believe it's been 10 days since my last post...bad liz, bad! Well, I'm taking a few days off, so hopefully I can post all the swatches and looks I've done within the last month.
Make Up For Ever's Fall 2013 Blue Sepia Collection was an extremely modest release. The collection featured the Blue Sepia Palette (LOVE my sepia tones), an Aqua Liner in the collection's focal shade, Petrol Blue, and a pair of half falsies decorated with Swarovski turquoise rhinestones (the false eyelashes stayed at the counter).
The Blue Sepia palette is truly gorgeous! Offering five shades of brown (three matte and two satin), a shimmery, pale pinkish-white, a shimmery, electric, deep turquoise with micro turquoise shimmers and a golden sheen, and a matte black. All six shadows are creamy, extremely pigmented (even with a primer, the deep turquoise shade can/will stain the lids), and amazing in quality. Also, based on your color preference, the three matte brown shadows can be used on the brows...bonus!

From left to right: 04, 98, 17, 127.
The next two pictures are swatches of the Aqua liner from the collection, as well as the other products used in the looks for the Blue Sepia Palette.

I loved, loved, LOVED the makeup from the promo look of the Blue Sepia Collection. Inspired by the image, I wore (and loved) the Petrol Blue Aqua Liner on the brows (I thought I took a photo of me wearing it, but nein). WARNING: as much as you love the eye-popping effect of Petrol Blue on the brows, the product is INSANELY pigmented, and will stain the skin. So, unless you plan on doing a J.D. Salinger, and being a total recluse the next day, or don't mind the 24-hour faded blue tattoo look, use at your own caution.
