An Afternoon with Reese, Rob, Elephants and bareMinerals READY eyeshadow 2.o The Top Shelf
I’m spending my afternoon visiting my folks in Oregon. It’s cold, rainy, cooking aromas are wafting through the house (I did not inherit the cooking gene!) and I’ve just finished watching Water for Elephants.
When I heard that Reese Witherspoon and Rob Pattinson (Edward from Twilight) were co-starring as star crossed lovers, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Two hours and twenty minutes later I was in tears wanting to watch the dramatic love story for a second time!
I can only rank this movie from the performances, to the costumes (Reese’s hair, wardrobe and makeup are a sight to see!) as top shelf; a high quality production.
And as you’ve probably read from my previous review of bareMineral READY eyeshadow 2.0 duos, The Vision, these shadows are definitely of a high quality.
In this post, I’m showing you The Top Shelf. This was the first of the READY duos I wore and is the one that sold me on the formulation.
Left to Right: Mixologist (a creamy satin peach), Cognac (a shimmering amber-gold)
Left to Right: Mixologist, Cognac (photo taken in daylight). Look at that texture!
The shadows at a slightly different angle. This was the first duo I wore and I was wowed! They are easy to blend but require little work to achieve a beautiful look. I can’t help but wonder what a duo like this would have looked like on Reese’s baby blues...
Availability: Ulta, Sephora, Boutiques
Price: $20US, .1oz
5/5 Smooches: Great color pay off, sophisticated texture, and smooth application. What’s not to love?
I reccomend The Top Shelf and I recommend Water for Elephants. It is one of the most beautifully written, styled and produced films I’ve seen in a long time. Have you watched it?
Here’s a photo from one of my favorite scenes. The hair, makeup and especially the dress had me yearning for vintage glamour.
