Hyponotizing Lips


Hey everyone! I'm here with awesome look. I just used a bunch of fun colors and this is definitely not a day look so I don't wanna recommend wearing this out in the day time. But I think this is just a cool fun pink purple ombre look. I started off with priming my lips with chap stick and I just use Burt's Bees chap stick. Then I took my Maybelline lipstick in 635 Very Cherry and I mixed it with Wet and Wild 522 Dark Wine. I did a lighter application of both of these because I just wanted to have a tint of this color. Then I took Noise from the Vice palette it's a really hot pink eyeshadow. I placed that all over my lips and blended it out with the tint. I mixed two purples I took Vice from the Vice palette which is a true purple and it has a bit of shimmer.I put that on the outer corners of my lips so it would create a shadow. The next purple called Rapture from the Vice Palette and I blended it inwards from vice. If you want a true color you could repeat the steps until it looks perfect. You can use any colors that you want.

I hope you guys like this! If you can make this look more wearable during the day post a picture below! :)

Have a beautiful day :)

Ombre! Make Them Brown Eyes POP

      I always like to make my eyes the center of attention so I made this look out of inspiration from my Stila palette. It is an ombre sultry eye, this makes brown eyes really pop and I think all the colors are beautiful and I'm using all the colors from the Stila palette but any of these colors can be duped with something else. Let's get started I did my foundation and contouring and highlighting all the same nothing changed. For my blush I used a Covergirl blush in 110 classic pink. For my lips I used myth by Mac and for my lip gloss I used baby sparks by Mac. I always prime my eyes before I apply any eyeshadow because I want the purest pigment as possible and I don't want it to crease. My favorite primer of all time is Two Faced Shadow Insurance and I applied that from the lid all the way up to the brow bone. From the Stila palette I used Bear, Sandstone, Gilded Gold, and Luster. I applied Bear from my lash line all the way up to my brow bone.
Then I applied Sandstone to the lid and blended it out. I next applied Gilded Gold to the crease and I also diffused it. The next step is to take Luster to the lash line and blended upwards so you get that ombre effect. I did 2 more extra steps and I took Leisure Time by Mac and applied it all the way around my eyeshadow on the outer corners and on the inner corners. I blended it out and then I took my 24/7 glide on eye pencil from Urban Decay and I gently smudge it on my lash line just to have the effect of fuller lashes. Then you could do your eyebrows and mascara and this will complete your look and you will have big popping brown eyes.
(Beauty Tip: If you want bigger and more round eyes take a white eyeliner pencil and apply that in your waterline both top an bottom. This makes the eyes look bigger by appearance because it fools the eye into thinking there is more white space there.)


I hope you guys enjoy!
(Btw) I am having a photo shoot today I will try and post some pictures tonight.
Have a Beautiful Day!
