Face like an Italian Garden

Hello, Fireflies!

I love Fall makeup more than any other season.  I love makeup sets, and if they include brushes, all the better.  So, when I got a look at Laura Geller's Italian Garden set, I went weak in the knees!

This set comes in a light, kinda flimsy, white wooden box.  It's a nice touch, but don't expect it to become an heirloom...  The set contains a face brush, a dual-sided eye brush, an eyeliner, liquid foundation, mascara, a leaf-motif eyeshadow palette, and a lip crayon.

My fave way to apply liquid foundation is with a flat-top buffing brush like this, but I'm not sure if this brush is going to become a fave.  It's very dense, but it absorbs a lot of product. 

I was really excited to try the Laura Geller Baked Liquid Radiance foundation.  I haven't been using too many liquid foundations lately, but I couldn't resist the golden glow.  I'd read reviews that suggested getting a tone lighter than usual because the yellow undertone is fairly prominent, and I'm glad I did that.  Light was just right for me.

No one does baked like Laura Geller, and I love the Autumn Leaf eye shadow palette.  These browns and a pop of emerald green are perfect for this season.  And I'm all about the wine/berry Lasting Love Lip Stain in Pinot Noir.  This color is my jam.

The waterproof gel eyeliner is called Brown Sugar, and is a dark cappucino color.

I'm using all of the palette, the Brown Sugar Eyeliner, and the Glam Lash mascara that came in the set for this EOTD.  Glowy, warm browns with a touch of green in the outer crease.

I switched out the lippie and put on NYX Liquid Suede in Vintage for this look.  I like how the warm brown tones in Vintage look with this eyeshadow palette.
