Project 7 Day Palette – Front Cover Rainbow Eyes


Apologies to everyone who has taken the time to comment on my blog and hasn’t had a reply this week. I’ve been off on my jolly holidays! We just went further North for a week. Now I’m pretty shoddy at doing my own makeup but I do love wearing colour so whilst a lot of people take their holidays as an opportunity to not bother wearing much I take the opportunity to go a bit mad. With the exception of Tuesday (I was walking up Ben Lommond which by the way was hard work but amazing) I slapped on something colourful. This week I used the Front Cover Rainbow Eyes palette. It got a little beaten up in Thailand last year and I haven’t really used it since which is a real shame. 

Before I begin the lovely SugarBumpkin is doing the same challenge over at her blog. Click the link to go and take a peek, it's a fab blog! 

Sunday: I used Buttercup, Carrot, Super Pink, Blanc de Blanc and French blue over a teal Avon eyeliner. 


Monday: Moonstruck, Viola, Clematis, Blanc de Blanc


Wednesday: Biscuit, Hazel, Blanc de Blanc, Moonstruck (using the shadowline), True Blue over Urban Decay 24/7 liner in flipside.


Thursday: My Birthday! We went out for dinner. Laugh all you want but I had fun wearing this. The lashes are Cheryl Cole festival lashes. I was going to keep it neutral with the mad lashes but I managed to blob gel eyeliner on my lid so erm... it turned into leopard print? This was taken at the end of the night so the lashes were starting to lift a little. Anyway I used Blanc de Blanc, Mother of Pearl, Biscuit, Chocolate Truffle and Black Iris. 


Friday: Wild Lime, Clematice, Blanc de Blanc.


Saturday: I didn’t snap a pic of this as I just wore a wash of Biscuit over the lid with a touch of black liner as I was wearing MAC Toxic Tale lipstick. The lippie is so in your face that I tend to keep everything else very bare when I wear it otherwise I feel a little too over the top. 

Back to work next week and that means back to neutrals. Are people still interested in seeing a weeks worth of neutrals? If so, what palette do you think I should use? I was thinking one of my Sleek Palettes (I have all of them), or perhaps the Urban Decay Naked palette. Or even my MAC neutral palette. Any thoughts? X

*The Front Cover Rainbow Eyes palette was bought and damn near destroyed by me* *seriously, the packaging is falling apart and Super Pink is over EVERYTHING*

  4. Wow, I love the look with the eyelashes! I also have and love this palette, since getting this I have bought a few other Front Cover palettes, but this is my favourite.

    For next week a Sleek palette would be interesting I think, but may not be too suitable for 5 days of neutrals, of course it depends on which palette you want to use I guess. Acid may not be the best choice. ;) x

  5. Thanks D.Sadie!

    Aw thanks Kat, I'd hoped the lashes would be a bit more wearable on me but on my little eyes they were huge! Still like them though.

    Sure Vita, Naked palette it is!

    Hi Anita, I have the Mermaid Dreams palette too but don't seem to reach for that much either. I think if I were to use Sleek palettes I'd maybe pick two. Like Storm for work and Acid for the weekend ;-)

  8. Love the looks you created, such a great idea to use the palette over the whole week - would never of thought of this :) Would love to see a week with the naked palette as mine really doesn't get enough use considering how beautiful it is :)
