30 Days of Skins: Day 6: Cupcakes Celebrity

0

cupcakes_001.jpgWelcome to week 2 of our 30 Days project. I am pleased to show off Rosemary Galbraith and Mimi Coral’s collaborative skin called Celebrity. (OK, I am a sucker for things named after me. I can’t help it.) Celebrity is a very recent release, coming within the last 10 weeks and already the duo has carried forward their most popular makeup styles to the new body line.

On the right is Celebrity Mocha, the darkest tone available in the line (my personal preference) and on the left is the Gemini Iroko tone (both skins feature the same makeup combination called “Smokey.”)

While I enjoyed wearing the Gemini line of skins, I really like the revisions that the team has made to the Celebrity line which features major highlighting across the chest, and collar bones, a more defined tummy (but not quite as ripped as some other skins out there.) Celebrity also sports a significantly more defined face, including shading around the lips, nose and the cupid’s bow (seriously!)

cupcakes_006.jpgCupcakes has a lot of different skin tones (see the lightest tone called Sugar on the left) and unusually, I think they do all of them quite well although I know that Rosemary and Mimi have made a conscious choice to reduce the body highlights on the lighter skin tones. For me, personally, that makes the darker skin choices a more appealing look.

Check out Cupcakes new mainstore at Le Zoo (73, 162, 22). Since I know Rosemary and Mimi are meeting each other IRL this week – have fun, girls!
