We Can't Stop by Miley Cyrus Inspired EOTD

Hey,

I am not a Miley fan but I have seriously been obsessing with this song, if you haven't heard it yet some how you need to go listen to it right now! Her makeup in the music video is so light and natural but yet gorgeous. It is seriously the simplest thing to do, but yet it looks so pretty. The color is a bit more noticeable without flash and in person.

What I Used:

• Urban Decay Primer Potion in Eden
• Maybelline Color Tattoo in Barely Branded
• Coastal Scents Fall Festival Palette, shades: Light Apricot, Chamois Nude, Bright Copper, and Gunmetal
• Other great lid options would be: Urban Decay Chopper or Sin, Mac All That Glitters, or Stilas Kitten, the lid color in Wet n Wild Color Icon trio in Walking on Eggshells.
• NYC Eye pencil, not sure what the product is called but it's one of the dollar liners in Charcoal
• Rimmel Lyrca Lash Extender Mascara
• Rimmel ScandalEyes kohl liner in Nude

What I Did:

1. I primed my eyes and then used the color tattoo as a base.
2. Using my finger I mixed a tiny bit of the Bright Copper shade with the Light Apricot eye shadow and patted that onto the lid, and blended it slightly into the crease. You want more of the Light Apricot shadow then the Bright Copper.
3. I used the nude liner under my brow and blended that out and over top of that I used the Chamois Nude to high light.
4. I lined my water line and tight line with the gray liner and then set that with the Gunmetal shadow. I pressed this into my top lash line, this gives a liner effect but it much softer then liner, in the video it looked like she had on eyeliner but it was very soft and not intense like a black.
5. Lastly I applied mascara this really helps give the liner look she had in the video, its much softer then black but defined.

This look is that simple and other then to set the liner I used no brushes! To replicate the rest of the look contour and pair this with a red lip. She had little to no blush on in the video.

Velvet Red Lips

Hey,

I love a red lip, its beautiful, classic but yet timeless. Every girl can pull it off once you find your perfect red. But really the trick to the red lip is confidence and of course knowing what kind of eye makeup to pair with! I love a matte red the most, but lately I have been doing a velvet like effect when doing a red lip and I wanted to share with you how I do it! I am not good at taking pictures of my lips, it's quite difficult, but my lips look really big and full in the picture so that's a plus! That shine is all the shimmer, I also do this with baby powder when I want a purely matte lip.

What I used:

• Rimmel Lasting Finish Kate Moss Edition in the Red tube in 111, I think it's name is Kiss of Life
• Avon Glimmersticks Lip Liner in Red Brick
• Coastal Scents Hot Pot in American Rose,  a medium red with a shimmer/satin finish
• Concealer, I used a concealer that was too light but I suggest using one that matches your skin tone, I just couldn't find mine at the time. You can see the difference, but this makes the red look much neater and pop even more!

What I Did:

1. I applied the lipstick, personally I just go straight out of the tube but you can use a brush if your  a perfectionist.
2. Then I cleaned up any mistake I made by using the lipstick straight from the tube, a lip brush should help eliminate this step! I also use this part to shape my lips, I like a more round pouty lip so I don't use lipstick in the corners of my lips and I round the edges out to give this effect.
3. I used the liner which is a bight darker then the lipstick to outline my lips and fill in the corners a little. This helps give dimension to the lip. I do this afterwards because I find that it just works better to give this effect.
4. I then set this, you can use an eyeshadow brush but I just use my fingers, I take some of the shadow and press it onto the lips, this will make your lips dry. It mattifies the lipstick but gives it a satin almost velvet effect. This looks more velvet like in person then in a photo.

Note this is a bit drying for your lips but looks great, last a long time and is fairly transfer proof!

Night Look Using Colors

Hey,
Using a color with a black is one of the easiest ways to use colored eye shadow and makes a great night look! This look is great for summer nights out and you can switch up the color on your lid with any color. I have a look fairly similar to this look that you can check out here.

What I used:

• Urban Decay Primer Potion
• Wet n Wild Cream Eyeliner in black
• Coastal Scents 42 Double Matte palette; black, purples, white, lightest brown
• Rimmel Scandal Eyes Mascara, orange cap

What I did:

1. I primed my eyes and set that with my face powder.
2. I drew the shape I wanted with the black cream eyeliner and filled in where I was going to place the black eye shadow.
3. Then I patted on a black eye shadow over that and blended out the edges and into the crease.
4. I used the lightest brown shadow in the crease, you don't want this to be noticeable so afterwards go over it with the black again.
5. I patted the lightest purple shadow on the inner part of my lid, then a shade that was about two shades darker in the middle, then the darkest purple on what's left of the lid. While doing this blend each color into each other, since these shades are similar they will blend into each other easily.
6. Apply a thin line of eyeliner
   
   
   on the top and in the tight line and waterline, set this with the black liner.
7. Smudge the black shadow on the outer third of the lower lash line, a mix of the darkest and medium purple in the middle and the lightest in the inner third. Remember to blend these all into each other.
8. Highlight under your brow bone and inner corner with a white eye shadow
9. Lastly apply a few coats of your favorite mascara and/or false lashes. Fill in your brow and finish your face.

This look, looks best with lots of bronzer, a little highlighter and a nude lip.

Review; Coastal Scents Fall Festival Palette

Hey,

I have several post talking about this palette and one coming Friday; I will link them below. I decided to review this since fall starts this week and this is one of my favorite palettes and is fall inspired. I personally consider this to be a neutral palette, it does have a few colors a blue/purple, bright orange, and two greens. I consider the red/cranberry shades to be neutrals but that's just me. You also get a black with red shimmer, bronze, both a matte and shimmery skin tone, a copper and a dark brown.

There are 12 eye shadows, one matte and the rest are either shimmery or metallic. All of the shades are gorgeous and pigmented. They blend easily and you can create so many looks with this palette; it is so versatile, I have made at least eight that I can easily think of. The best thing about it is its price. This palette is only 12.95usd; that's less then a two dollars for one eyeshadow! I would say these are just as good as Urban Decay and better then any shadow you'll get at the drugstore. They aren't extremely powdery but do have a tad bit of fall out do to the pigmentation. I really would suggest this palette, you can create so many fall look, and even though its a fall inspired palette you can create some gorgeous summer looks too. The actual palette its self it big, sturdy and has a huge mirror which is great for travel.

Overall I think this palette is beyond amazing, its cheap and highly pigmented. The only down fall is that it's only sold online. They have other premade palettes like this which are part of their Hot Pots and you can also design your own palette for a little more money but still much less then say a MAC palette, but I really do suggest you check this one out, I use this as much as my Naked palette if not more.
