It's not every day that I have a lot of time to dedicate to putting makeup on in the morning. Today I randomly woke up too early, and since I couldn't sleep, I figured I might as well use that extra time to get ready.
I got my arsenal of makeup ready, assembled here for viewing. Most products are pictured but there's a few below that didn't make the photo shoot. :)
Today, I started with eye makeup. I can't seem to navigate the Lorac shadows without a little fallout, so I knew it would be easier for me to do my eye makeup first, clean up any fallout, and then proceed with my face.
After applying Urban Decay primer in nude across my eyelids, I swept Lorac Light pink across my upper brow, and Lorac Mauve across my lid. I then blended Honeybee Gardens Dragonfly into the crease and the outer V of my lid. Finally, I blended Lorac Deep Purple into the outer V as well to really build up the dark smoky concept.
Here's an arm swatch of the colors, from bottom to top in order used.
Using an angled eyeliner brush, I lined both my top and bottom with Lorac Deep Purple. I cleaned off the brush, and then patted a little bit of the Dragonfly along the bottom for a little bit of extra purple pop. I finished the eyes off with Honeybee Gardens Espresso mascara. Then, I cleaned up around my eyes in order to refine the look.
First I used Clinique concealer in Very Fair to cover the dark circles under my eyes. I used Clinique Even Better foundation in Linen to even out my face. I used Clinique invisible matte powder to set the makeup. I applied Lancome bronzer around my cheeks, as well as Clinique Mocha Pink Blush to brighten up my face even more.
Finally, I applied Red Apple Lipstick in Maven Mauve.
And then I took a lot of selfies.
Thanks for reading!
