I know I have already featured a Face of the Day post using Le Metier de Beaute’s glorious Splendid Frost Kaleidoscope here but it is such an incredibly gorgeous palette and I realized I had yet to use it with the proper Couches de Couleur technique layering the top three shades on my lid into my crease and then intensifying near the lash line by adding the fourth shade. I had always kept the shades somewhat separated in the past. Well Holy $#!% does this look fabulous! I hope you can see and appreciate the complexity of the shade the layering technique achieved as well as how incredible Sugar Plum looks layered over the Le Metier de Beaute Precision liquid liner.
Another reason I wanted to feature this palette again is that it is still available at some counters (at least it was very recently) but it is selling out fast so if you like the look of this then RUN THERE!!!! Or you could just call the counter I guess?

I need to try this technique this weekend, Love the Laura Mercier lipstick too–I looked at them but they were so bright they scared me!
The lipsticks are crazy bright aren’t they! They do pack a really nice punch of colour but the sheerness makes them totally wearable…and juicy!
Very beautiful! I still haven’t used my SF yet! I want to take some good sunny photos of it before I dive in! The lippie is beautiful but I’m *scared* of those colors- I’ll leave that to the experts like you x
I’m scared of those lip colors too! I love the way you always pick the right shades that work for you.
Thanks Jeanie and Ammie! I’m always attracted to the brightest colours! Thankfully with all my online ordering most things work out! Jeanie you have to get out SF!!! The pics will be fine!!
Oh snap, getting sexy with the shoulders! =)
This is lovely on you, and I need that lip color ASAP.
LMAO!! Can’t you tell?…I don’t have shoulders! They are sad! Thanks…it’s ok k wore that to work right? LOL
What a really beautiful taupe and blue eye. I love when dark blues add extra dimension to an otherwise neutral eye!
I never used to attempt blue shadow with blue eyes but I just cannot resist Sugar Plum!!
that looks absolutely gorgeous on you
Thank you!
