Bright Winter

There is one colour missing from the Clear Spring palette that I love and admire - True Red.  I've blogged about this incredibly feminine and sensual shade before and I keep on coming back to it as one of my favourites.  After a few amazing recommendations and conversations, I decided to give bright or 'clear' winter shades a try and much to my surprise, I really like this palette.  Today I did my makeup using colours from this palette and had an opportunity to take a photo outside is very natural light - I'm at my schools football field/track setting up for an 'Bocce Tournament' my school hosted.  I snaped this photo early this morning and I really like the effect of the makeup:

For this look I used Exhibit A blush, a mix of NARS ashes to ashes and lola-lola eyeshadows on the eyes with Marcelle's Cabaret in the crease/outer corners.  I used MAC"s Blooz as a liner and smudged Cabaret into the upper lash line.  For my lips, I used MAC's Cherry lipliner and Russian Red Lipstick.
