Ooops, meant to post this last night but our power went out! Anyway, here are the looks I wore to work last week. I've been continuing with my colourful lower lashlines and slightly smokey eyes, and have even been stepping it up with glittery nails and weird zombie handbags. I'll be keeping it super neutral tomorrow though, as I have my 1 month probation meeting/performance review. I know I'm better than the guy I replaced, and I'm constantly asking for more work to do, but that small irrational part of me is stressed as fuck and worries about any negative criticism I'll get :P
Monday: I doubt there's a colour more suited to the neutral-lid-with-a-pop-of-colour-on-the-lower-lashline look than Urban Decay Flipside Eyeshadow. Mine came in the Get Baked Palette, which is basically an ode to that kind of look! I haven't used Flipside in a while, so I decided to use it on Monday. I wore Urban Decay Half Baked on the lid and crease, deepened the crease with Twice Baked, and added Flipside on the lower lashline over a layer of NYX Electric Blue Eyeliner.

I popped a teensy bit of Sugarpill Lumi on the inner corner, and my generic Silk White Gel Liner on the waterline. On the cheeks I wore Benefit Hoola as a contour with MAC Springsheen Blush. Can't remember if I wore a highlight, but if I did it was either Benefit Gilded Pencil or Ben Nye Iced Gold Eyeshadow. On the lips I just wore a little Napoleon Perdis Protege Lipgloss.
Tuesday: I can't remember what I wore on my lids, but on the lower lashline I used NYX Slide On Pencil in Golden Olive as a base for MAC Humid Eyeshadow. I popped Illamasqua Medium Pencil in Vow on the waterline, and used the same Benefit Hoola/MAC Springsheen/Ben Nye Iced Gold Eyeshadow cheek combo with Napoleon Perdis Protege Gloss on the lips again. I'm desperately trying to use this NP gloss up for Project 10 Pan, but it doesn't want to die!
Wednesday: I love a green, teal or turquoise eye look with a pink lip and cheek, so I repeated Tuesday's look but changed up the lip and cheek combo. I wore MAC Blush Ombre in Azalea Blossom on the cheek with my NP Set Highlight and Contour Palette to highlight and contour. On the lips I wore MAC Syrup Lipstick with MAC Cremesheen Glass in Chillin'.
Thursday: On Thursday I opted for something a little different but still neutral, so I did a slightly smokey eye with MAC Club Eyeshadow. I wore NYX Slide On Pencil in Golden Olive on the lid and lower lashline as a base, with MAC Club all over the lid, lower lashline and blended out in the crease. I used MAC Gorgeous Gold on the inner corner to highlight, as it's got a lovely green duochrome. On the cheeks I wore MAC Springsheen again (can't believe I forgot about this blush for so long!) and MAC Shy Girl Lipstick on the lips.
Friday: I seem to have misplaced photos of my look from Friday, so you get a random non-work look that I can't remember if I've posted before! All I remember is that I wore NARS Sin Blush on the cheeks, blended the hell out. On the lips I was wearing a light layer of MAC Goes and Goes Prolongwear Lip Creme as a lipstain, with a purple-green duochrome Kiss My Sass gloss on top.
