Our southwest colors move us.
Sedona's red rocks, glowing sunsets, apples from the Rio Grande
Valley, red hot chiles, the soft golden glow of aspens,
fall harvests,
are just a few contributors to the palette provided us
as inspiration here in the Southwest. Though there
obviously isn't a line of makeup named for our southwest
palette, we've done our best to search out and bring
some colors aptly suited to match our lovely autumn
shades.
EYES
|
NEW Eye Studio™ Color Pearls™ Marbleized Eyeshadow in
Sinful Sinnamon from Maybelline is our first pick for beautiful eyes.
Though the highlighter is sparkly which is not as
suitable in this instance, the intense solid shade works
beautifully for our purposes. Smooth solid shade
into crease. |
 |
|
Another great pick for eyes with all the
shades we need is the Urban Decay Vegan Palette
from beauty.com.
Six best-selling
shades also just happen to be vegan.
Everything at Urban Decay is cruelty-free
(meaning they don't test on animals. . .ever!),
and this palette is dedicated to fervent vegan
fans - those who "just say no" to using animal
by-products of any kind.
Vibrant teal and silvery money-green eyeshadows,
in addition to four rich neutrals. Includes
travel-sizes of Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Sin
and 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero.
A closer look reveals intricate artwork of
favorite creatures big and small, all printed
with soy-based inks on recycled packaging.
Contains: 6 Eyeshadows, Eyeshadow Primer Potion
and 24/7 Eye Pencil.
We find these
shades perfectly suited to our southwest autumn
palette. |

We all want the best in a mascara and Femme Couture Monster Lash Mascara Blackest Black ,
from Sally Beauty Supply, suits the wild side for those of us living a
little closer to nature out here in the southwest.

Brown. |
CHEEKS

For beautiful
blushing, glowing autumn cheeks, Palladio Mosaic Bronzer
Herbal
Powder from Palladio in Velvet Plum or Desert
Rose, also from Sallie
Beauty Supply. Case
contains five shades just perfect for blending
and highlighting to bring out the earthy, rich
shades of nature here closely matching our
colors. |
