Dominique Cosmetics Latte Palette: Look #4


Natural Every Day Look




Hello everyone! I am here with a natural take on the Dominique Cosmetics latte palette! If you are interested in looks like these and want to know how I achieved this look, keep on reading!


I started off by priming my lids using the Nyx primer and setting that with the shade Cream from Lorac Pro palette.


I took the shade Caramel and applied that to the crease.


I took a tiny bit of the shade Double Shot and applied that to the outer V and blended a bit towards the crease.


I then applied the shade Creme Brulee and applied that to the lid.


To correct and conceal, I applied a combination of the benefit Boi-ing concealer and the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea concealer in fair light. I blended that with my damp beautyblender.


For foundation, I combined Smashbox Studio Skin in 0.5 with Tarte Rainforest of the sea in fair light neutral. 


I then set all my makeup with my Laura Mercier translucent setting powder.


I filled in my brows with the shade espresso from the Lorac Pro. 


I set the brows with the essence gel in brownie brown.


For a brow bone and inner corner highlight, I used the shade light pink.


For bronzer, I used the shade Taupe from my Lorac Pro.


I used the shade Mauve from the Lorac Pro palette as a blush. 


For a face highlight, I used the shade Nude from the Lorac Pro palette.


I tried out the It Cosmetics Superhero mascara, and applied two coats on the top lashes.


For lips, I applied the Anastasia lipgloss in Kirsten. 


To set everything, I used the Mario Badescu rose water spray. 

I hope you all enjoyed this look! It came out pretty natural and perfect to wear to work. 

Thanks for reading!

Dominique Cosmetics Latte Palette Look #3


Purple Halo Eyes


Hello everyone! I am back with another look... and as it seems, I have been on a purple kick! This time, I created a halo eye using the Dominique Cosmetics palette and MAC lipstick in Heroine. Although the eyes did not turn out perfect, I like the overall look. If you want to know how I achieved this look, keep on reading!



I started off priming my lids with my NYX eyeshadow base and set that with the shade Cream from the Lorac Pro palette.


I then took the shade Caramel, which is a matte taupe-y orange shade and applied that to the crease.


Using the shade Double Shot (a rich matte magenta shade) and a flat shader brush, I applied the color to the inner corner and the outer corner. I blended a bit of that shade in the crease to create a sort of transition. 


I applied a tiny bit of the Nars Radiant Creamy concealer to the middle of the lid and blended that out using the smaller end of my beautyblender. You could also use a brush or your finger if you prefer to do so. 


In that empty spot that I created, I applied the shade Macchiato, which is a shimmery silver/light gold color. I did not get my colors on correctly (was not wearing my glasses and couldn't see very well lol). But you want this gap to be where the middle of your pupil will be once you look straight on. So you want to aim for the middle of the lid. 


To correct and conceal the under eyes, I used the benefit Boi-ing concealer and the Nars concealer in vanilla. I used my finger to blend the benefit concealer and the beautyblender to blend the Nars concealer. 


For foundation, I am currently in between shades so I mixed a bit of the Tarte Rainforest of the sea in fair light neutral and a tiny bit of the Smashbox studio skin in shade 0.5. I blended that out with the Tarte foundation brush and touched up on the spots that were streaky with a beautyblender.


I set all of that with the Laura Mercier translucent setting powder.


To fill in my brows, I used the color espresso from the Lorac Pro palette.


I then set that with my essence brow gel in brownie browns.


For an inner/brow bone highlight, I used the shade Light Pink from the Lorac Pro palette.


I used the shade Taupe as a contour shade.


I slightly dabbed a blush brush into the shade Mauve (a beautiful matte purple shade) and applied that as a blush (if you are fair like me, the lightest hand is the best, if you apply too much, you will look bruised!).


For highlight, I used the shade Nude (a beautiful shimmery pink) from the Lorac Pro palette.


I set everything with the Mario Badescu rose water spray.


I then lined the top lash and created a wing.


For mascara, I used the UD Troublemaker mascara and applied two coats to the top lashes.


To finish off the look, I applied the MAC lipstick in the shade Heroine. This is a beautiful statement lippie in a cool purple shade. 

I hope you all enjoyed this look! Thanks for reading!
