I’m not really the type to wear something like this, but I did promise a look with Sea Storm and Steam… so I hope you like it! It’s just three swipes of colour, really; nothing too complicated – which makes it an easy choice for a quick, super-summery eye.
I think this would look best on a darker skintone (to really make the colours pop), but if it’s your style, I say “go for it!” anyways. I mean, you only live once, right? Personally, though, I do think it makes me look a little jaundiced :P
To complete the look, I’d go with something subtle and peachy on the cheeks (like Clarins Barocco Face Powder or Hard Candy Honeymoon) and this lip.

Alternatives…
I know that a lot of you are anti-loose-pigments (totally understandable; I’m a klutz, too!) so here are a handful of alternative products to try. These are not dupes and are based only on colour family, so please don’t go expecting that they’ll be identical!
- Instead of Amarela, try MAC Chrome Yellow or Make Up For Ever Yellow 2
- Instead of Sea Storm, try MUFE Pearly Turquoise Blue 150, Urban Decay Flipside, or Annabelle Blue Hue
- Instead of Steam, try MAC Samoa Silk, MUFE Rust Orange 36, or MUFE Peach Apricot 69.
