Simple Eyes, Bold Lips

By The Brown Girl | Thursday, January 13, 2011 12 comments

I love Maniac lipstick from Chanel, but its such a strong color I never really use it because I feel like it overpowers everything else on my face. My solution today was to keep my eyes super simple so the lipstick could shine on its own.

Face:
Estee Lauder Double Wear Light in 5.0
Calvin Klein Concealer
Mac Prep and Prime finishing powder

Eyes:
Mac Amber Lights
Mac Modest Tone
Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara

Brows:
ELF Brow Kit in Dark

Cheeks:
Milani Mai Tai

Lips:
Chanel Rouge Allure #147 Maniac
A gift from my big sis!

    @Lady K, I was soo skeptical about that CK concealer. I didn't think the color would be right for me, but since it came in gift set along with some eyeshadows and the whole thing was on clearance I gave it a try. Now its in my everyday concealer rotation! Glad it works for you too!

    Hello Brown Girl, I love this look. In my opinion you wear some of the best elegant-chic looks in the blogosphere.
    I will appreciate if you could confirm the shade/color of the CK concealer you use.
    Many thanks...
