I was going for clean as well as simple and easy with easy matte browns to define the lids as well as an stylish dark brown winged liner. And, yes, girlfriend, you checked out that correctly: Dark. Brown. Winged. Liner.
Back in the day (uh, two years ago?), winged liner was hallowed ground reserved solely for either black or jewel tones. I liked — as well as still like — the intense drama of the contrast of a solid black or a brilliantly colored line against my lids, however I’ve reached the point where I’ll try anything to get myself out of the makeup funk I’ve been experiencing over the last couple months, which currently includes playing with makeup in methods that aren’t overwhelming. Like, there’s no method homegirl is about to knock out a look with five colors in the crease best now, however I’m definitely down to try a dark chocolaty wing.

And, ya know, I truly like it! It’s like the kinder, gentler version of winged liner without the stark black edges. I mean, you still see the crisp lines, however I believe there’s something less serious about the brown.
For the liner, I utilized a mix of MAC Coffee as well as MAC Brushbrown (liquid liner), as well as the rest of the makeup is quite heavy in MAC classics, since when I’m not feeling very great, those go-tos always hit the spot. MAC was my very first like , as well as I might go on about old-school colors like Saddle eyeshadow as well as Melba blush for days.
Basically, if you like listening to me ramble about MAC long-term collection classics, let me know. ?? I’ll take any type of reason to talk about those O.G. shades.
Speaking of O.G.s, I can’t discover my MAC flavor liner, as well as I’m borderline panicking about it! I wished to wear it in this look however ended up utilizing Boldly Bare instead.
