Everyday Makeup Routine. WARNING, IMAGE HEAVY! :)

As promised, here's my everyday makeup routine... :)
This is without doing like major eyeshadow or anything, if I do wear eyeshadow, I will put on eyeliner and such, but if i'm in a hurry then this is what I do...Enjoy! :)
1. UNO- Apply chapstick before starting! :)
2. DOS- I take the lightest white matte cream shadow from my Revlon Illuminance Cream Shadows palette in Not Just Nudes and apply it under my eyes as a concealer/brightener! :)
3. TRES- I take my Wet N' Wild Ultimate Mineral Foundation in Fair with my Elf Studio Powder Brush and apply it under my eyes to set the cream. :)
4. CUATRO- I take my NYC Matte Bronzer in Sunny with my Elf Studio Powder Brush (I use this brush for EVERYTHING!) and apply it on my cheekbones to contour. :)
5. CINCO- I apply my Maybelline Mineral Power Blush in Gentle Pink to the apples of my cheeks and bring it upwards toward my hair line with my Elf Studio Powder Brush  (told ya!).
6. SEIS- I take the light shimmery champagne cream shadow in my Revlon Illuminance Cream Shadow palette in Not Just Nudes. And apply it all over my lids with my finger.
7. SIETE- Then I apply Model Co. Shadow in Antiqua all over my lids and up to my brow bone to set the cream shadow.
8. OCHO- Then I curl my lashes with my NYC Eyelash Curler, trust me...curling your lashes makes all the difference! :)

9. NUEVE- Then I apply Wet N' Wild Mega Protein Mascara in Black to my freshly curled lashes. :)

10. DIEZ- Then I apply whatever lip product that I'm wearing that day, today it was Maybelline ColorSensational Lipstick in Born With It. :)


AND YOU'RE DONE! :))

So....yeah, nothing really special there, but it gets the job done, hope this helps and hope you liked it. :)

Love & Peace,

green eyes are fun! :)

Here's my first tutorial ever! I'm so excited, I hope this is pretty explanatory. Swatches and lists of all colors and products used will be at the end. So, this is an extremely simple smokey warm green and brown look, it's really great for people with green eyes, like me! So, let's get started... :)
1. So, of course first you want to prime your eyes. I just used a homemade primer that I made using this tutorial:

2. You want to apply a light lime green color to your lid just using a simple shader brush.



3. Take a crease brush and grab a dark olive green color and put it in your crease from the outer corner all the way to the inner corner.





4. Blend out the harsh lines between the lid color and the crease color and the line between the crease color and the brow bone.
5. Take a golden brown color and put it in your outer 'v' and then bring it halfway into your crease and blend it out. (sorry, no picture)
6. Add your favorite highlight, eyeliner, and mascara.
7. You're done! (see...I told you it was simple!)

 

Swatches & product list:

  • Maybelline Emerald Isle Quad, Lid - Shade I used for lid
  • Maybelline Emerald Isle Quad, Outer Corner - Shade I used for crease
  • Urban Decay Eye Shadow, Smog - Shade I used for outer corner
