Weekly Challenge: Blush as eyeshadow? *WINNER ANNOUNCED*

Postby Marlena on Mon Nov 02, 2009 4:11 am

This week's challenge is just that- a challenge! You'll have to be creative with this one as most blushes come in a limited range of colors vs the many eyeshadows we're used to :) So, come up with your best eyeshadow look using just blushes...

I chose 2 winners this week for this challenge- this was tough, but everyone did amazing! So.... the winners for this week, winning 2 NYX blushes of their choice, goes to.....

MAC Loverush, Fever and Dollymix used all over the eye, and I just went really dark on the lid will all three colors and just tried to shade it going up and this is the color it turned after much blending and mixing. Hope you like it. I also used MAC Fluidline Blacktrack, to line my eyes and I used a little fever with money honey dazzleglass on my lips to try to make them match. :)

The only blush I have is MAC Loverush, Fever and Dollymix I did my first look, but it seems like that will be the only look I have not unless I try to do a look separately from the three I have. The only problem, is that out of the three; fever is the only color that could possibly stand alone. I guess this will be an interesting challenge ;)

I so wish I could do this challenge! I don't really use blush, as my cheeks are naturally a little pink. Maybe I'll pick up some at the MAC Make-up class that I'll be attending on the 14th! I'm super excited!
