Hitting pan with Clinique's Foxy

I've written before about my early love for Clinique and how that love hasn't really faded. One product that I've had multiples of is Clinique Colour Surge Eye Shadow Soft Shimmer in Foxy ($15).

This is a great neutral that I use as a crease color. It has a slight shimmer to it but nothing too crazy. It has good color payoff even though mine is older and a little dry. You can apply it wet for even more dramatic results!

You can see the pan in this one, which is rare for most makeup junkies! Sure, you hit pan on face products a lot; however, hitting pan on an eye color is rare. I think this is actually my second or third one! I used this religiously all throughout high school. This product has great staying power and doesn't crease or fade.

You should check one out the next time you're at Sephora or your local Clinique counter - I think it's a great shade for everyone but the darkest skin tones. You can purchase it on Clinique's website HERE.

XOXO

Clinique Oldies But Goodies

Clinique was my first-ever high end cosmetics brand so it holds a near and dear place to my heart. I remember my mom took me there when I was about 15 for my very first makeover, which was before a middle school dance. I STILL use some of the products that I got started on then!

So I decided to dig out two oldddd lippies from my stash. (The tube has been dramatically redesigned since I got these!) The first one is Long Last Lipstick in Bamboo Pink ($15). This was my VERY FIRST lipstick and I've been through a couple of tubes. It's a nice, pinkish brown that looks so natural and gorgeous. I really should wear it more.

The second is Different Lipstick in Spiced Apple ($15). I'm pretty sure I got this as a gift-with-purchase (GWP). It's just as the name describes: a deep, spicy apple. It's a bit dark for my pale skin but it can look nice in the fall and holiday season.
