Red Smokey Eye with Makeup Geek

Red smokey autumnal look with Makeup Geek

While I will wear any makeup, any time of the year, some things do trend with the seasons and it can be fun to join in.  Red and gold smokey eyes always seem to be popular during Autumn/Fall so this is my version on the look.  All the eye shadows I use are from Makeup Geek <3 and I paired it with the infamous Ruby Woo from MAC, which I'm sorry to say I'd pretty much forgotten about.


Read on for a list of all the products I used, plus some close-ups.

Nars Audacious Lipsticks - Anna and Anabella

Nars Audacious lipsticks in Annabella (top) and Anna
When the Audacious lipstick range from Nars was announced in August I swooned.  40 shades of opaque luxe lipstick in really pretty packaging  
I was lucky enough to receive an Audacious lipstick for Christmas, albeit not the shade I'd asked for.  My husband went to our local counter armed with a short-list of shades and somehow the lady sold him the wrong one.  Admittedly Anna could be confused name-wise with Annabella (there's also an Anita!)  Anyway, despite it not being the my-lips-but-better shade I was hoping for, Annabella is a rather gorgeous orangey red/ reddish orange that surprisingly suits me rather well.  He later treated me to Anna as well and so I can show you both.
