Signature look?

I love doing lots of different looks, but if I should pick one "signature look" it would be a simple look with bold colors.

Actually really easy but really eye catching at the same time.

Do you have a type of look that you do a lot? :)

Orange waterlines

I love a pop of color on the waterline or lower lashline!

Have you tried using orange?

I was inspired by an Instagram post by ShowYouMakeup but obviously turned it into something quite different... I felt like going a bit liner heavy, I guess ;)

Sleek Sunset eyes

Wow, I finally got around to trying the Sleek Makeup eyeshadow palettes!
The main colors in this look are from the Snapshot palette. It's pretty much worth it just for those two colors I'm wearing here. So super smooth, pigmented and easy to blend. What's not to love?

I've been using Instagram for a while as @SofieUdklit, but just created @ZoffeMUA just for makeup. Come say hi :)

Contrasts

I've done variations of this color combination several times. Yellow+Orange eyeshadow and some sort of blue liner.
For some reason , I just really like this combination of contrasting colors and I'm quite happy with the way it turned out this time :)

Neo Orange, Poison Plum... Love.

Rather simple, but fun and bright at the same time. It seems that's a new makeup love of mine...

Brights!

Bright makeup is always fun, isn't it? :D

FOTD: More To The Beach!

Just another really, really quick FOTD post.
I'm so busyyyyyyy!

FOTD: Sunset/rainbow/something fun :)

FOTD: Orange lips are awesome! :)

The weather here was super nice today, so I decided to put my favorite plastic flowers in my hair and use some orange lipstick! ;)

For whatever reason, I find Morange lipstick quite hard to capture in pictures.
It always looks more red in pictures than it does in real life.

FOTD: Orange NEON!

I haven't touched my neon colors in forever!
I'm not super happy with the way the colors look together, but it was definitely fun to play around with them! :D
And that's the great thing about makeup! It's easy to take off if you don't like it! :)

FOTD: Prêt-à-Papier

Since the Prêt-à-Papier collection just released here last week, we still have to wear the products at work.
I always get bored pretty quickly when we have to wear certain products - especially when all the products are neutrals!

Don't get me wong. I still think the Prêt-à-Papier collection offers some great products, but I prefer to be able to wear fun bright looks to work :P

My favorite thing though: I really liked the lip combination I did! :)
I bet you can't guess what I'm wearing :P

FOTD: Orange-y look using MAC Spring Colour Forecast

For once, I actually had time to take pictures before work!
Not a lot of time though, so these were all taken in a terrible hurry, haha :)

So, this is actually my very first look using Sugarpill!
Make sure to check out my swatches and review if you haven't :)

FOTD

This is just a really quick look that I did before going shopping with my sister :) She needed to return some Christmas presents and I (of course) ended up getting some new makeup which I'll share with you in another post :)

Happy New Year! + NYE makeup

I hope everyone had a great and safe New Year's Eve!

I don't usually get the whole concept of New Year's eve parties though. It's like everyone thinks that that party is going to be the most amazing one of the year, but it rarely turns out to be like that when you have such high expectations.
Sure, NYE is a great opportunity to dress up in way over-the-top glittery clothes and makeup without anyone thinking it's weird, but I wear makeup and clothes like that a lot on normal days as well, haha :)
I think every Friday and Saturday night have the potential to be just as good a party as NYE could ever be and I wish people would remember that, 'cus that would mean a lot more great parties throughout the year! ;)

That being said, I did have a great time! I spent the night with three of my lovely coworkers from MAC :) We had some great food and a lot of great things to drink, and we had an awesome little party all by ourselves, haha! Even though it wasn't a huge party, it was one of the best New Year's eves I've ever had :)

And with all the rambling aside, here is my NYE makeup!
I was in a hurry when I took these pictures, so they're not the best, but I hope you'll like them anyway :)

Simple look with Samoa Silk

I love MAC's Samoa Silk eyeshadow, I really do :)
I was quite happy with this look for what it is - a simple look that's super pretty with blue eyes.
I used an old favorite lip combo of mine as well - Viva Glam V with Love Nectar lustreglass on top!

Red lips and dramatic lashes!

Another look for work ;)
I did the eyeshadow and thought it was quite boring so I added some fun lashes and bright, red lips! :)

Another bright look :)

Graphic Garden: Fresh Cut

I used the Fresh Cut palette from the MAC Graphic Garden collection to create this look :) I do love the palette, but didn't get it myself since I have dupes of almost all the colours. I wish Sun-Shy eyeshadow(the peachy orange one) came as a single though - I would totally get that! :) And I really do think that the palette is worth the money if you don't already have similar shades. They work amazingly well with green and blue eyes :)
The pictures were taken after a whole day of work, so please keep that in mind, haha :)
