Step By Step Instructions :

1. Start by applying primer all over your eyelid and under the eyes.
I used SKINN Instafill For Eyes

2. Apply concealer all over the lid & under your eyes covering those dark circles.
I used Julie Hewett Creme Concealer - Omit
God send for days when I need concealer but very little of it

3. Apply a thin layer of cream shadow all over the lid as a base.
I used Julie Hewett Cream Shadow - Malachite.
A gorgeous light green that looks good on its own but great under any shadow !

4. Pat on a warm earthy brown all over the lid using a flat eyeshadow brush
I used Prescriptives Mineral Eyeshadow - Earth

5. Using a fluffly blending brush apply a deeper shimmery brown on the outer corner of your eye and blend it upwards and outwards onto the crease. Use back & forth motions.
I used Julie Hewett Shadow in Java.
Here is another look I did with Java - loving this shade ! Made me fall in love with brown !

6. Apply a shimmery ivory shade as a highlighter under your brows
I used Julie Hewett Shadow - Zen

7. Do your brows
This was my step #1. I used Milani Brown Pencil in Taupe & Julie Hewett Shadow in Vita

Lips

That gorgeous shade on my lips was Smashbox Lipstick in Captivating ! A serious contender for my Best Lipstick Shade Award.

Guilty Pleasure Song ?

What is your guilty pleasure song ?
I'm almost embarrassed to say it but mine has got to be Get Low by Lil Jon. Lord I dare not sing it out loud if there is anybody else around me. The lyrics are bad bad bad.

Today I'm in a somber mood so I'm grooving to Usher - You Got It Bad...Its been heard over ten times now.

Usher ...Hmm...what a beautiful beautiful man..

Chanel Rouge Allure Laque - Dragon : Swatch

Yeah the title does no justice to the post. But what could I call it - Gorgeous Indian Girl Doing Red ? Given this I dare not.

Big thanks to Ranjani for sharing pictures of her wearing Chanel Rouge Allure Laque - Dragon. Look at her - beautiful !!


Other than Chanel she has on a touch of MAC amorous creme sheen on top just for a tinsy shine. And all that glow is from NARS Albatross !

If this does not move you to run go try a red lipstick/gloss - I don't know what will ! I am the ambassador of the color red and I declare this a high point in red's relation with brown girls.

Ranjani is a blogger friend of mine and an AIMB reader. She writes at
wakeup and smell the masala
. She also has youtube videos of her making complicated Indian curries in less than 10 minutes !

Love,
Indian Girl

Use of Gold in Indian Fashion: For this reason, some gold ornament is usually worn against the skin at all times. Indian Gold ornaments are popular because the metal is believed to have the power purify anything it touches.
Ornaments of gold and other metals, often combined with precious and semi-precious gems and beads, are popular with both men and women in India.

Traditionally, Indian ornaments had economic significance for women too. The ornaments given to her at her wedding constituted a daughter's inheritance from her father ( Dowry).

Customarily land and other property was divided among the sons, though this no longer holds true. In addition, a bride's ornaments were financial security throughout her life.
