15-Minute Makeup: Feline Meow With L’Oréal Voluminous liner Noir, MAC Tabby, NARS Bengali, Bite appeal Multistick in Papaya, hourglass Vanish and Lilah B.

Is black liquid winged liner ever a good idea when you’ve only got 15 minutes to put on your makeup?
I think I was going for “crazy cat lady in the suburbs” with this ensemble, which I wore yesterday. You know how I pointed out that I’ve been trying to wear a lot more makeup lately? I just wasn’t really into it after having the baby. Well, I’m still out of practice, but I’m trying to push myself a little by wearing makeup every day, and often it turns OK, but often it looks like this.

There are a few things going on with this look. First, there’s, like, a patch here on my chin where I sort of didn’t blend the foundation, but that’s because I spent a lot of of the 15 minutes I spent on the liner — just drawing it and correcting it, and redrawing it.

I thought that I could just use this liner from L’Oréal and some tape for the wings, and that once I did those things, the look would generally be done, but the takeaway lesson here is that if you’re going to attempt a 15-minute makeup look…don’t do black liquid liner…unless you want to be really stressed out, because I was really stressed out the entire time.

Fifteen minutes just wasn’t enough time to do a terrific job on this.

One side of the liner looked a little thick, while the other side looked a little wonky, so I had to bust out a Q-tip to try and fix it.

It was a mess.

I’m also wearing hourglass Vanish Seamless Foundation, and despite the big glob on the side on my cheek that I didn’t blend, it turned out OK.

That’s Bite appeal Multistick in Papaya on my cheeks and lips and some eyeshadows from NARS.

Honestly, the eyeshadow here was generally an afterthought. I did the liner first, and then the shadow on my lids afterward (MAC Tabby cream shadow). and just used neutrals for the rest.
