Brand Spotlight: Younique

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.
