Lola: Look 3 How she used them:
"I applied a lot of the Mineral Glow all over my face. I used the eyeliner for a deep smoky eye look and blended some of the Mineral Glow on my lids as well. I dotted some of the red stain closer to the inner corners of my eyes and blended that into the brown smokiness. I used the eye liner to fill in my eyebrows, lined my bottom lids and used it to lightly line my lips. I dotted on the red lip stain and pressed my lips together to blend with the liner. I also used the lip stain on the apples of my cheeks."

What she thought:
"This was definitely a dramatic look, but it worked. I don�t usually do dark eyes and dark lips at the same time, so this was a more made up look than I�m used to. I ended up really loving the combination of the heavy bronzer with the pinkish cheeks, there was just enough contouring and softness."

Final thoughts:
"The challenge was not as scary as I expected it to be. Once I got comfortable with wearing color on my lips -- which is a huge thing for me -- it made switching up the looks a lot easier. I was surprised that I could pull off things I never bothered trying because I just assumed they wouldn�t work on me. All it took was a little forcing, but the more comfortable I get with lip colors the easier it will be for me to switch up my makeup every once in a while and not get stuck in the same old routine.
