I hope to soon start posting make up tutorials, but until I get that set up I have found a way to let you see some of my looks and the make up that I use for them. The look I am posting today is one I used to go shopping on Newbury Street in Boston. It is natural but with a little more exaggerated eye shadow. It is just the perfect look to go shopping or for a day out in the city.
My favorite and most recent purchase has to be my Naked2 palette from urban decay. It has every color you need, from basics to darks for smokey eye looks. The two colors I used for this look are bootycall (third from the left) and snakebite (sixth from the left). I used bootycall on the whole eye lid and snakebite mostly around the edges and blended at the corners a little.
The foundation I used was the L'oreal magic nude liquid powder (only use for day) in nude beige. Before applying the foundation I used the Smashbox primer, which is the small tube next to the sugar chapstick.
Right under my cheek bones I used Victoria Secret's Silky Bronzing Powder and then right on top of my cheek bones I used the NYX palette butt "naked" eyes. The pink blush thats third from the left made this look with the bronzing sort of pop.
Right above the blush, not to close to my eye, I used the MAC Prep and Prime Highlight Light Boost (next to the bronzing powder), which gives your cheeks a nice soft glow.
For mascara I used the MAC gel mascara which I strongly recommend and have mentioned in my previous post. It is so thick that you do not need to dunk the mascara back into the bottle for the other eye (next to HIghlighter).
To fill in my eyebrows I used the MAC eyeshadow in Cork.
For my lips I just used a simple Sugar chapstick from Sephora.
To finish this look off I definitely recommend the MAC Prep and Prime Finishing Powder, which keeps all your make up intact for the whole day.
