Good Afternoon!
This weekend, I rocked this
makeup look and god so many compliments on it while I was at work that I wanted
to recreate it for a post! I have been obsessed with the Naked Smoky palette and my
ColourPop Ultra Matte Lipsticks lately. The smoky neutrals and bold dark
lip colors make me crave autumn so badly that I find myself just doing fall
makeup looks regardless of if I am melting outside. This is a very easy makeup
look that combines shimmery shadows with matte lips and a nice winged liner. I
hope you enjoy!
For my base, I have been doing
the same routine that I normally do, but for this look I used my Urban Decay Naked Skin concealer to
highlight under my eyes, down my nose and t-zone, on my cupid’s bow, and on my
chin. This concealer is great for really brightening up my face and making me
look more awake.
The eyeshadow look is so simple
for a nice neutral smoky eye look. I love the shades in the Naked Smoky palette so much and I feel
like you can do so much with this palette because of the versatility. I started
by using Combust (a matte tan shade)
as a transition color all over my lid. Then I used Dirtysweet (a shimmery goldish tan shade) all over the lid over
Combust. In my crease I used Radar
(a shimmery dark gold shade) to add depth to my eyes. In my outer corner and on
my lower lashline, I used Whisky (a
matte chocolate brown shade) to give that beautiful smoky look. Whisky is my
absolute favorite shade and the reason I keep picking this palette up every
time I do my makeup. It is the most beautiful chocolate brown that I have ever
seen. Finally, to highlight the inner corners of my eyes, I used High (a shimmery pale peach shade).
Winged liner is not my strong
suit, but with practice I have been able to make a liner routine that works for
me. Using my Kat Von D Tattoo Liner,
I draw a little triangle in the outer corner to make the wing, and then fill it
in only to the middle of my eye. Then using a black kohl liner, I draw the rest
of the line in and also fill in my upper water line to make my lashes look
thicker. I followed that up with the
Benefit Roller Lash mascara, using the wand upside down because that is the
only way I like to use that mascara.
When I make mistakes with my
winged liner, the quickest way for me to correct it is to grab my Simple Micellar Water and a Q-Tip and
wipe away the problem area. It is the fastest way to correct the problem while
keeping your makeup intact, so don’t fret over those little liner mistakes!
Last but certainly not least, I
finished the look with my ColourPop
Ultra Matte Lipstick in Limbo to give that perfect 90’s lip color. All I
need is a pair of Doc Martens and flannel to really set the 90’s mood.
This look is a perfect look to
transition into the fall weather and even into winter. I cannot wait to
continue to rock this in the upcoming months. I hope you enjoyed this post and
have a wonderful day and I will see you Wednesday with a new post!
