Silver Fox
Silver Fox is the name of the quad from Revlon's latest Autumn collection. Whilst there's no silver in sight, the colours are so gorgeous and appropriate for the season. This evening I decided to test it out!
The colours are pigmented but I did have to wet my brush to intensify the colour of the maroon in some areas. There was quite a bit of fallout as the colours are a little chalky but they still blended easily. I love the end result and would certainly use this quad again, the colours are subtle enough for day time yet dramatic enough for the evening.
And a closeup of the finished look!
I dyed my hair dark brown today with a PPD (Chemical free) hair dye which I ordered from Aubrey Organics, it's henna based and will not damage my hair or cause any irritation. Instead, it promises to strengthen my hair. My aim is to grow my hair, and chemicals don't allow me to do that due to the damage they cause which means more trims.
Love it! :) I had to keep it in for 1 and a half hours, it was quite messy but worth the hassle. My hair was looking very light and dare I say it had a orange tinge (Blueeurghh!) Now it's a rich mid tone brown with no red or orange. Oh and this henna doesn't stain the skin, how weird is that? Very cool.
Here's what I wore this evening.. A classic black dress!
What's your thoughts on 'Silver Fox', chemical free hair dye and what do you team a classic black dress with?

I used the white in the inner corner, the gray on the centre of the lid, the maroon in the crease and outer v with the turquoise on the lower lash line.

Silver Fox looks like an amazing palette and the whole eye makeup looks stunning! :) What blending brushes did you use?
Love the black dress too, so chic where's it from?

@Hinna thanks hun :)
@Chic Geek It's great, I have avoided henna based hair stuff as I thought it would turn my hair red, didn't realise there were colour options! Natural struff is the best!

i used to get henna treatments for my hair when i was younger to strengthen my hair. i think it's pretty impressive that i was able to sit still long enough at under 9 years old :p.
lastly, your accessories are divine! they're all so pretty :)

Love the hair too, henna is great thats what i use when i dye my hair
I am turning my blonde hair brunette this way and I am pretty scared since I have had blonde hair for ages, but my hair has just said "too much", so I am not sure what brand I will be purchasing to do it at home. I will let you know.
XOXO

I love the look you put together, it really makes your eyes stand out. Gorgeous as usual :)
Loved the fact that you used all the colours in the quad. They look very pretty together. XXX
Your black dress looks gorgeous with the neutral coloured accessories. I usually go for red accessories but neutrals look more classy. x
And I love your shoes:)
@Catanya - You are very sweet thank you, Blonde hair can be very damaging, I've decided to stick to this hair colour and brand for a few years in order to have long brown hair full of shine. Good luck with your journey xx
@Shameera - I'm not too sure, my mum got it for me, label has been cut, oops! I have some similar ones from Zara, maybe check there?
@Andee Layne - Thanks hun, yes usually I skip drugstore eyeshadows too, but this ones too pretty with such a cute name :)
The makeup is incredible, and you are so beautiful!

@Get Gawjus! - Well this henna based hair dye is a good place to start asit's actually good for your hair :) my hair already feels much healthier!
@Roisin - Thank you :) The turquoise fabric one is from accessorize, the gold ones are all Turkish gold from Turkey, and I can't even remember where I got the bronze chunky one from..
@Houda Aww thank you sweetie, your always so kind with your comments. (I don't even want the naked palette, as I already have so many eyeshadows, but I can see the appeal.) X
@Anette - Thank you, I use the shade "natural" with the bobbi brown moisture rich.
