Makeup of the Day

What's on my face today?




Products used (face): 1. Revlon Colorstay liquid foundation for Normal/Dry Skin in 150 Buff.
2. Conceal blemishes with Sonia Kashuk Hidden Agenda Concealer Palette.
3. NYX HD Photogenic Concealer under eyes.
4. E.l.f. Translucent Matifying Powder to the T-zone and chin.

For the eyes i'll be using five eyeshadows from the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette:









Products used (Eyes):* I always start by filling in my eyebrows using the Coastal Scents Brow Tones palette, a small angled brush and NYX Eyebrow Shaper *
1. With a fluffy brush apply Tease (matte, pale brown) to the crease, this will later act as a transition color.
2. Using the flat shadow brush that came with the palette, pack YDK (shimmer, cool bronze) all over the lid. Blend a little at the crease.
3. With an angled brush, apply Busted (shimmer, deep brown)to the outer V lightly, depending on how dark you want this look gradually intensify the shadow. Blend at edges and I lightly blended the shadow to soften the brown.
4. Where Busted starts to fade towards the center of the crease, I applied Suspect (shimmer, pale gold beige) to the remaining inner half of the crease. Blend.
5. With a fluffy brush, apply Bootycall (shimmer, creamy white) to highlight the brow. Tease should help transition between the highlight and Busted/Suspect shadows.
6. Using a small angled brush apply Bootycall to the tear duct. With the same brush, apply Suspect underneath the lash line.
7. Line waterline with ULTA Kohl Eyeliner in Deep Brown.
8. Curl eyelashes and apply mascara. I used Revlon Fabulash in Blackest Black.



Products used (Cheeks): 1. I lightly contoured my cheeks using Hoola by Benefit.
2. Apply Prestige Skin Loving Minerals Bronzing Powder in Pure Shimmer to highlight the tops of the cheeks.
3. Using a Stippling brush apply a very small amount of NYX Cream Blush in Natural to cheeks. Trust me, a little goes a LONG way!



Products used (Lips): 1. Lightly dab NYX Matte Lipstick in Summer Breeze across lips.
