Yesterday I revealed the Pacific Illusions “Destinations” Mineral Eye & Cheek Palette as one of my top three makeup finds of the year so far. It’s pure perfection in pigmentation and quality, and I knew I had to make it my “look of the day” today. The look is quite neutral and glowing on the eye, with a touch of black cat-liner to spice it up. The peachy-pink blush from the palette makes my cheeks look naturally flushed. All around, this is my go-to look when I’m out and about. I have plenty more photographs of the look inside…trust me, you don’t want to miss how gorgeous these mineral makeup shades are!

HOW-TO GET THIS LOOK:
Above is the Pacific Illusions “Destinations” Mineral Palette, with numbers marked as a guide. Here is how I achieved the look:
- Apply shade “1” to your entire eyelid and lower lash-line.
- Apply shade “2” to the crease of your eye and blend it upward past your socket for definition. Also, apply this on the outer third of your lower lash-line to create a subtle smoky effect.
- Apply shade “3” to the inner corners of your eyes and your brow-bone to bring light to these areas.
- Apply shade “4” to the apples of your cheeks!
I also added black eyeliner to my lower lash-line and smudged it out, as well as black liquid liner to my upper lash-line with a cat-liner flick. The actual mineral makeup in this palette applied like a dream. If only every piece of makeup I have ever used applied and blended this way! All the products look very natural on your skin and really have a luminous quality to them.
THE FINISHED LOOK:
The Pacific Illusions Beauty “Destinations” Eyes and Cheeks Pressed Mineral Face Palette is available online at Artisan Gems Boutique. Each palette retails for $60.00 USD and there are two other Eyes & Cheeks Mineral Face Palettes available: Paradise Island and Exotic Getaways. You can view my full review and swatches of the palette here.
Happy Friday! What makeup are you wearing today?
