Smoldering Euphoria: Smoky eye look and pastel lips using UD Naked Smoky and Feral Lipstick

Hello everyone! Today I decided to create a look with a dark purple smoky eye and a pastel purple lipstick. 

To begin, I primed my eye lids using my NYX HD eye shadow base.

I then applied the shade Combust from the UD Naked Smoky palette to set that eye base. I did this using a flat shader brush.

I then took that same brush and applied the shade Smolder (a deep plum with some flecks of shimmer) and applied that all over the lid and a bit into the crease.

I used a crease brush and applied the shade Password into the crease moving the brush back and forth. This shade is a cool purple leaning almost taupe-y.

I used the shade Black Market (a shimmery black) and smudged that with a pencil brush all on the lash line.

Using a clean brush, I picked up the shade Thirteen, a matte white and applied that as a brow bone highlight.

I used essence Get Big Lashes mascara and applied to my top lashes.

I concealed my undereye circles using my Maybelline Age Rewind eraser in 120 creamy ivory and used a damp beauty blender (Ulta brand) sponge to blend it out.

I set that undereye concealer using the shade Heaven (a matte cream shade, similar to Sage Highlight from KVD or Vanilla from Anastasia) from TF Everything Nice palette.

For the face, I used Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue in Opal and used the same beauty blender like sponge to blend it out.

I used my Mary Kay Loose powder to set that.

To fill in my eye brows I used my Nyx eye brow pencil in dark brown.

I set my eye brows using my essence clear brow gel.

I then contoured using my Too Faced Chocolate Soleil bronzer and my Sephora contour brush kit. 

I used the shade Dream On (a little darker and a little more pink than the shade Heaven) to clean up the contour. I used this on a small blush brush.

Using that same small blush brush, I picked up my highlight, Inner Light and applied that to the cheekbone.

I used a Real Techniques blush brush and the shade Sweet Pink and applied that to my cheeks and blended it out.

For my lips, I used the shade Euphoric from Feral Cosmetics. This is a very light purple-pink (I would describe it as a neon shade). I applied this directly from the tube.

I set the whole look using my Mario Badescu rosewater facial spray.

I hope you guys enjoyed this look! 

Thanks so much for reading!

Biweekly Makeup Basket June 6^th – 19^th

^{Hello everyone! Happy weekend! I missed posting my biweekly basket last week, so I will be posting it this week. I have already been using this palette for a week, but since I had not posted about it, I figured I would extended it for another week.}

^{For the eyes, I will be using my Urban Decay Naked Smoky palette. I really enjoy this palette as it is very versatile, it allows for every day looks as well as for more smoky, and dramatic night time looks.}

For the face, I will continue using my Sweet Pink blush from the Too Faced Everything Nice palette, Inner light highlight also from the TF Everything Nice palette, and for bronzer, my Chocolate Soleil. 

For lips, I am going to try to focus on my Sephora Rouge in R12. This is a berry pinkish red shade that is perfect for every day. 

Although there are very few products on this list for my basket, I will be using other products, but I will be making sure to focus on these specific ones these couple weeks.

I hope to be back with a blog post for my empties for March, April, and May as I have not been able to post about those.  

As always, thanks for reading!  :)

Girly Envy: 

Tutorial using Too Faced Everything Nice & Feral ‘Envy’

Hello everyone! I am here today with a quick tutorial using my Too Faced Everything Nice palette and my new lipstick, Envy from Feral Cosmetics. If you would like to know how I achieved this look, keep on reading!

I started off with my undereye concealer, Maybelline Age Rewind Eraser in 120 Creamy Ivory. I applied it directly from the tube and then used my Sephora sponge to blend it out.

I then used the shade Heaven, from the Too Faced Everything Nice palette and a small blush brush to set my concealer. 

For my foundation, I used my BareMinerals Complexion Rescue in Opal 01 and blended that out using the larger side of that Sephora sponge. 

I then set that foundation with my Mary Kay Loose powder and a powder brush.

I filled in my eyebrows using my NYX eye brow pencil in dark brown and set this with my Essence clear brow gel.

To prime my eye lids, I used my NYX HD eye shadow base and blended that out using my ring finger.

I then applied the shade Girly (a duo chrome shadow that sometimes looks reddish brown and sometimes has hints of green) from the Too Faced Everything Nice palette using a flat shader brush.

I went in with the shade Fawned of you (medium warm brown) with a large crease brush and applied that to the crease. I used windshield wiper motions to blend that out.

Then I used a small crease brush and the shade Paper Roses (a light shimmery pink) and used that as a brow bone highlight.

After that, i went in with the shade Chocolate Moon and applied that as an eye liner to my top lash line. I used a small eye liner brush for this.

Using a clean small crease brush, I blended out that eye liner so it did not look so harsh.

I then curled my lashes, and applied my mascara, Essence get BIG! Lashes.

I used my Sephora contouring brushes and my Too Faced Chocolate Soleil in med deep to contour my cheeks, forehead, chin. 

Using the shade Dream On and a small blush brush, I cleaned up my contour lines around my cheeks.

I used my highlight, Inner Light, and that same small blush brush and applied this to my cheekbones.

I then went in with a bigger blush brush and the shade Sweet Pink and applied that to the apples of my cheeks and blended them out towards the back of my head.

For my lips, I went in with the shade Envy from Feral Cosmetics. I applied this directly from the tube and did not use a lip liner.

I finished the look with my Mario Badescu Rose Water spray to set it all.

That is all! I hope you guys enjoyed the look. The pictures definitely do not do this eye shadow justice. It is definitely more intriguing in person. 

As always, thanks so much for reading! Hope you enjoy the rest of your day/evening.
