Sultry Eyes with a Nude Lip

Hello my lovelies !

Today's look is a sultry eye with a nude lip. I got inspired but the girls in Romeo Santos music videos ! They almost always have a similar look and it is very flattering on any eye color but if you have hazel eyes this look will emphasize and make you have that sexy smoldering look ;) !!!

Face-
Garnier Antidark circle roller
NYX skintone base
Mac MSF natural
Benefit hoola bronzer
Mac solar riche bronzer
Nars sex appeal blusher
TheBalm Mary Lou-Manzier

Eyes-
Ud foxy, suspect, tease, blackout e/s
Mac wedge, woodwinked e/s
NYX eyebrow cake powder
Mac feline eye kohl
Bare minerals flawless definition mascara

Lips-
Mac Stripdown l/l
Mac Peachstock l/s
Lancôme l'Absolu Coral Sand

In order to get that smoldering look you have to do a lot of blending so take your time starting off with the lightest color which should be your transition color and than little by little add the dark colors. Using colors like woodwinked and suspect also help because they are such soft and shimmery colors that are easily blendable just remember to go over each color once you blending is perfect, with black being the last color you apply so it can look sultry and "vibrant".

I hope you all like !

Easy smokey eyes

Hello beauties !! Today's post is on an easy dark smokey eye ! I love black smokey eyes, I find this is the fastest and easiest way to do so I hope you like it !

Start off with Mac Feline eye kohl, blend this color out with your finger then take a grayish taupe eyeshadow, I used on from an Estée Lauder palette, blend this color onto the crease to smoke out the Feline kohl. Using the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette take Blackout and pack that on to the lid, a tip to avoid fall out is to tap not smudge the Blackout on the lid. Taking Busted from the Urban Decay Naked palette, blend that color into the crease, further blending out the Blackout shadow. On your brow bone use Urban Decay Naked 2 shadow in Foxy and Urban Decays Naked shadow in Virgin to bring light into the inner corners of your eyes. To finish off your look line your eyes slightly with a liquid liner, I used Lancôme felt tip liner along with lining your tightline and waterline with Feline and pack on the mascara, I used Lancôme doll lashes.

On my brows, which is very important when doing a dark smokey look, I used wet n wilds brow kit in dark brown. For the face I used L'oreal BB cream, Mac MSF natural, Tarte park avenue princess. And Dollface blusher. For a cheek highlight I used hard candys pinup and on the lips I used Mac Peachblossom l/s topped with Revlons Sunset Peach l/g

April Favorites

Hello my beauties !!!

Let me say that this year in general has been going so fast it's crazy but I'm so glad it's been a great year so far and will continue to be so ! :)

Since all the new spring/summer collections have been releasing on my time off I have been experimenting but on days that I have class or work I've been doing basic makeup that makes my skin look fresh and radiant.

My April's FAVs are

Physicians Formula Bronze Booster in Light to Medium - I use this all over my face for a bronze glow and then I go back with a heavier hand and contour my cheeks and temples. I also use this color in my crease and lower lash line for definition.
Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 hr blush in Dollface - I brush this on to my cheeks and a light sweep on the tip of my nose and forehead for a natural looking rose glow.
TheBalm Mary-Lou Manizer highlighter - this is seriously the best highlighter I have ever used !! I used this on everything !! On my cheek bones, bridge of my nose, my Cupid's bow, my brow bone and my inner eye for a bright eyed look.
NYX skin tone base - I used this on my lids to give me a nude base and remove redness and the look of small veins on my lids.
NYX eyeshadow in platinum pink - I use this shadow on my under eyes, the light pink tones really help brighten the undereye area nicely.
L'oreal the super slime liquid liner 12hr infallible - I got this on impulse for spring break and I love it glides on nicely ! (Great for beginners)
Bare Mineral flawless definition mascara- this mascara really makes my eyes lashes look amazing ! It defines and makes my lashes look long, helping with the bright eyed look I go for !
Garnier Antidark circle roller- already on my second tube, this stuff is amazing !!! And feels so good on tired morning eyes.
Stila kajal in topaz- it's not as stark as white and really makes your eyes look big and bright.
NYX eyebrow cake powder in dark brown/brown- I've had this powder for some time but never used it, now I'm in love, the shadows leave a soft but defined natural look.
Maybelline Baby Lips- I swear I'm obsessed with baby lips !!! But I've been really in to Melon Mania because it has this amazing watermelon bright pigment that looks natural yet juicy on your lips ! (Doesn't hurt that it smells amazing !!!)
Mac Peach Blossom - since this color was released I've been in love too bad I didn't get a backup ! But this color is great to give you a natural glossed pink lip without looking over done.
Sedona Lace brushes !!! AHHH I cant believe I've been missing out ! These brushes are amaze ! The ones I've been really reaching for has been the 813 and I use this one for an all over bronze glow and to blend out my bronzer blush and highlight, the FB 05 omg. This brush is heaven ! I used this for bronzer contour, blush and highlight ! It's an all over great brush and very versitale, the EB 13 is great for under the eyes, brow bone and inner corner highlight.

What were you favorite for this month ??

Xoxo
