So I'm doing another MAC look today, I went out tonight so I'll show you my outfit and my eyes. I won't be wearing shoes because on my way home it was pouring rain and there was lightning and the whole deal, and my shoes got soaked. So no shoes. So to go with the green shirt, and yes I don't wear much else other than black, leopard and sometimes green; I'm doing green eyes. And I cannot tell you how much I love my MAC 217 brush. God that brush is great for anything. I wish I had more, I'd probably only use those.
So about the makeup, I was thinking to myself how MAC Steamy and MAC Club eyeshadows would look together. I stared at my palette trying to figure out what color would go with Club. A couple of days ago I was watching some random makeup videos on Youtube, not necessarily about a look using Club eyeshadow, just anything makeup related and I stumbled on a video by Pixiwoo using both Steamy and Club shadows, the exact two shadows I wanted to try out. They didn't use a base and it looked fantastic. For my look, however, I used a Paint Pot in Blackground (black) for this look. If you've used Club before, then you know how much a base color can make a difference. I'll post a picture below showing what it looks like with a base and without a base. My look turned out equally fabulous, but the Pixiwoo way is also on my to-do list. I used Phloof! to highlight the brow bone and to line the bottom lashes, I applied Paint Pot first and then Steamy and a bit of Club on the outer corner. I didn't use a liner because I felt that the eyes looked amazing like that. I only used MAC Powerpoint Eye Pencil in Engraved to line the waterlines. Add a bit of MAC Zoom Fast Black Lash Mascara and the eyes we're good to go.
For the face I used Benefit's High Beam to highlight, Too Faced's Pink Leopard to contour, and for a blush I used MAC's Cremeblend Blush in So Sweet, So Easy. I used the same foundation and concealers and primers that I normally use. On the lips, I am wearing a MAC Lipstick in Girl Next Door and a MAC Lipglass in Stay Sweet. They are both from the Archie's Girls Collection and aren't available anymore, but I'm sure it's possible to find a good dupe. I really liked how this shade went with the look. If you don't have that products, I'd recommend Too Faced La Creme in Marshmallow Bunny or even NARS Larger Than Life Lipgloss in International Velvet.

Outfit of the Day
So I don't usually do outfits of the day because I don't really wear anything special lol. But today I am so here's the outfit. Let me know what you think!
The shirt and skirt are from Dynamite. The earrings are Betsey Johnson. I got the cat necklace as a gift.
Here's a picture of my hair, I did a bun using the "donut" thing and a few bobby pins.
So thanks everyone for reading my post. Let me know what you thought of both the makeup look and the outfit. I thought the makeup look was great, Steamy and Club go so well together! Steamy is also my favorite MAC shade right now, I think that shade of green is just so so beautiful. Let me know what you think of these shades and the eye look. Also, did you like the blush and bronzer? I think the two go really well together and I'm really liking MAC Cremeblend Blush in So Sweet, So Easy. It's a new product for me and I'm starting to wear it more and more. The lipstick and lipgloss go perfect with the look, in my opinion anyway. It's a very nice light pink that doesn't compete with the boldness of the eyes. So this was my night out look, hope you enjoyed it!
I'm trying to catch up on all the stuff I said I would do, but forgive me if I don't post a lot this week, I'm getting my windows done starting tomorrow.
Here's a link to another look I did using Club eyeshadow, MAC Club Eyeshadow Look and How To Wear It
