We've got three videos, one for the face, one for the lips and one for the mascara! We went for a smooth, warm base and bold eyes to steal the show!
This is for our base and eyes. The eyes were pretty simple to do. Brows were made to be pretty easy with the urban decay mascara.
Blonde Lashes and Smokey Eye
Here is our lip combo! Easy peasy, but effective. We went paired down with the lip to let the eyes shine. I love this lip glaze and the color- ugh I love!
Blonde Lashes and Smokey Lip Combo
Here is a yap session with me applying the Urban Decay mascara. This mascara is great for editorial and creative makeup looks.
Urban Decay Tube Job Mascara
Eyes
For our eyes, we went for a smokey eye, but with a flair. We added a bit of green because for some reason, I thought it would be fun with this blonde mascara.
Here's our girl! The shade I used is "Bleached Platinum." I love this mascara! It's lengthening and I love how it looks on the lashes. I also used it to coat my brow hairs.
Tube Job - Lash Augmenting Tubing Mascara - Urban Decay
The shade that I used is "Nude 1." I used it to fill in my brows a bit more near the tail of my brows. These pigments are great because they are long - lasting and there are so many beautiful colors.
Colorfix Eye, Cheek & Lip Cream Pigment - Danessa Myricks Beauty
The shade that I used is "NY12." I just used it to shape my brows. This is a great concealer formula. I also use it under my eyes. Some concealers can feel drying under the eyes, but it actually felt like this one was hydrating.
Hy-Glam Brightening & Hydrating Medium to Full Coverage Crease Proof ...
I love this eyeshadow primer! It is my go-to! I love how it helps my eyeshadow pigments show up.
Eyeshadow Primer Potion Tube - Original - Urban Decay
The shade that I used is "Bronze Mahogany." I used this to build up some depth in my crease.
PAT McGRATH LABS Skin Fetish: Divine Powder Bronzer
This is currently my favorite spectrum eyeshadow palette! Definitely would recommend! Perfect for artists and people who love colorful eyeshadow and the pigmentation is gorgeous!
ELLIS ATLANTIS 45 SHADE PALETTE (MAGNETIC PANS)
The shade I used is "Feline." I used this to tight line underneath my eyes. The pencil glides on well and is very pigmented.
MAC Cosmetics Kohl Power Eye Pencil
Face
For our face, the focus was to have a warm, smooth base with minimal color. So, we didn't have blush, but we went bronzed. Again, I just wanted to make the eye makeup the focus.
The shade that I used is "Juice Boost." It is a glowy hydrating primer and I love how it makes skin feel plump. It has kind of little specs of shimmer in it. I mixed it with my other primer and foundation.
Yummy Skin Glow Serum Primer - Danessa Myricks Beauty | Sephora
This primer is smoothing which I love. It is also mattifying so if you have dry skin, maybe mix it with a hydrating primer and make sure your skin is hydrated.
Benefit Cosmetics The POREfessional Pore Minimizing Primer
The shade I used is "NC 50." This is a great reliable foundation. I usually mix it with a hydrating primer because it is pretty matte. And it does show some texture - I think that has to do with it being a natural matte.
Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 24HR Buildable Soft-Matte Foundation + Oil ...
The shade that I used is "Ube Birthday Cake." It is a lilac pink color, and I love how it adds a subtle brightness under the eyes. These powders are very blurring and smoothing. I love how they set underneath my eyes!
Easy Bake Loose Baking & Setting Powder - HUDA BEAUTY
The shade of the palette I used is "Dark." I love my curve case so much! You can use it for contour, bronzer and blush. For this look, we use this for contour and bronzer. The pigments blend out well and are pigmented and buildable.
Deeper Curve Case Cream Makeup Palette - Made By Mitchell
The shade I used is "16N." It is a very olive shade. I love the finish and coverage of the foundation. For this look, I used it underneath the eyes to add more dimension to the face.
Yummy Skin Serum Foundation - Danessa Myricks Beauty | Sephora
I love using one size setting sprays! They definitely help make the makeup last longer. I used this to set and add hydration before applying concealer. It's great for helping to blend layers of makeup.
ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starrr Powder Melt Glass Setting Spray
The shade I used is "Toasted Almond." It gives great coverage and light luminosity. I used it under the eyes, on the chin and on the forehead to add more depth. Love this concealer!
#FauxFilter Matte Buildable Coverage Waterproof Concealer - HUDA BEAUTY
The shade I used is "Truffle." This concealer gives a natural finish and is long lasting. I used it on my upper lip as a bit of a color correcting shade.
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer with Hydrating Medium Coverage
The shade I used is "5N Neutral." This powder is intended to be a foundation powder, but I use it as a setting powder. It leaves such a buttery matte finish and is long lasting.
Diorskin Forever Perfect Matte Powder Foundation - Dior | Sephora
The shade I used is "Global Glow." It is a golden highlighter. I'm just getting back into highlighter and I think this shade works well for my skin tone.
Mineralize Skinfinish - Highlighting Powder
Lips
We went with a simple lippie for this look! I didn't want to take away from the eyes. Sometimes all you need is liner and gloss!
The shade I used is "Mocha Martini." It is a glossy warm shimmery brown. I love how smooth and soft this feels on the lips. And it leaves my lips feeling soft.
Lip Glaze Serum | High-Shine Gloss with Peptides & Hyaluronic Acid
The shade I used is "Modern Mocha." This is a roll - up style lip liner. It has a slanted tip intended to make application easier and it goes on smoothly.
