Brand Spotlight: Younique Look

Hi everyone! I am here with a quick look that I created using some of my Younique products. I hope you enjoy it!






I started off with my face primer from Smashbox. I don't get oily so I focus this on my nose, forehead, and a bit around my mouth, where I am most likely to rub off my makeup. 


For concealer, I used a bit of the benefit airbrush concealer and topped it with the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea concealer in fair light.


For foundation, I mixed a bit of the Colourpop foundation in shade 30 and a bit of the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea in fair light neutral. 


I then went with the Tarte contour/highlight palette and used the cream shading color and contoured my face. I applied this with a flat ended brush and blended it out with the wider side of a beautyblender.


I set everything with my Laura Mercier translucent setting powder.


I then went in with the powder contour of the Tarte palette and applied that to the hollows of my cheeks.


I used the Younique bronzer in the shade Malibu and applied that above the contour and blended it up towards my temple. I also blended this towards the apples of the cheeks to give my cheeks some color. 


I used the cream to highlight illuminator in the shade Benevolent. I applied this by using my ring finger and dabbing it on the cheekbones.


For the eyes, I applied my NYX eye shadow base and set that with the shade White from the Lorac Pro palette.


I took my Younique quad and applied the shade Witty which is a nice warm burnt orange, and applied that to the crease.


I applied the shade Gentle which is a shimmery champagne color, and applied that to the inner third of the lid.


I used the shimmery green shade, Alive and applied it to the remainder of the lid.


I filled my brows using the shade Espresso from the Lorac Pro palette.


I set the brows with my essence brow gel.


I took the shade Discreet, a matte vanilla shade from the Younique quad and applied it as a brow bone highlight.


I used my Tarte Sex Kitten liner and created a wing.


For mascara, I used my Maybelline Total Temptation mascara and applied two coats to the top lashes.


For lips, I used my iSOCiETY COSMETICS lipstick in Just Out (an orange-y red shade).


I forgot to set my makeup so I went back and set everything with the Urban Decay Chill setting spray. I have noticed there is a difference in how this feels on the skin when it is cold vs when it is in room temp but I don't think there is a difference in how it works per say.

I hope you enjoyed this look! I absolutely love the Younique shadow formula. The eye shadows are richly pigmented and apply easily on the lid. The shade Gentle was highly highly pigmented! 

Thanks for reading!!

Brand Spotlight: Younique Look

Hello everyone! I decided to play around with some of my products from my Younique kit. I combined this with some other products from other brands. If you want to know what products I used, keep on reading!


As usual, I primed my lids using NYX eye shadow primer and set that with the shade White from the Lorac Pro palette.


I then went in with the Covergirl Peach palette in that mid-brown shade and applied it to the crease.


I took the seafoam looking shade (ignite) from the Kat Von D metal matte palette and applied this to the inner third of the lid.


For the second half of the lid, I used the shade Watt, which is a dark teal type shade.


I then took the shade Moss (a matte forest green) and applied it to the outer v and blended that out into the crease.


I primed my face with my Smashbox primer.


To conceal and correct my under eyes, I used the benefit Boi-ing concealer and the Tarte rainforest of the sea concealer.


I mixed the colourpop foundation in the shade 30 and the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea in Fair light Neutral and applied to my face.


I then used the Tarte contour and highlight palette and went in with the dark creamy shade and contoured my face.


I set everything with the Laura Mercier translucent setting powder.


I then took the contour shade from the Tarteist Pro palette and applied to my face (where I had initially applied that cream contour shade).


I the took the Younique bronzer in Malibu and applied that right above that contour shade, focusing it mostly on the outer part of the face and blended towards the hairline.


I applied a tad bit of the shade Mauve from the Lorac Pro palette as a blush (focusing mostly on the apples of the cheeks and blending towards the bronzer). 

*Note: if you are using bronzer, contour, and blush, it is important to remember LESS IS MORE! Since you are already applying three different products on that area, you don't want it to look super cakey and overdone. 


I used the shade Nude from Lorac Pro on the cheek bones as a highlight.


I used the Younique Moodstruck pencil to line my waterline. This pencil is pretty creamy and applies super easily!


For lips, I used the Younique Splash liquid lipstick in the shade Stellar. This is supposed to be a nude shade but since my lips have no real color to them, it looks a bit darker on me. This lipstick feels really mousse-y and applies evenly and smoothly. 


I then set everything with my Urban Decay cooling setting spray.


For mascara, I used the maybelline total temptation and applied two coats to the upper lashes.


I forgot to do my brows! So I went back in and filled them in with the shade espresso from the Lorac Pro and set that with the essence make me brow gel. 


To finish off, I used the shade White from the Lorac Pro as a brow bone highlight.

I really enjoy the Younique products, they are really good quality. The liquid lipstick is not drying at all! It certainly dries down to the matte formula but it does not feel uncomfortable on the lips.
