The first thing I'm going to do is prime my eyes. The reason I'm going to be doing my
eyes first is because we're going to be using a lot of different colors and if there is
any fall-out, then I want to make sure that gets picked up with our foundation later on.
After priming them, I'm going to be using a little bit of concealer to kind of even
out the skin tone on my eyes. I'm actually using the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind concealer
for this, I actually pulled the sponge off because I didn't like it on there, I feel
like I was wasting a lot of product. And I'm just dabbing the sponge on my eyes and then
I'm going to blend that out with my ring finger. Next I'm going to dust a little bit of really,
really finely milled face powder on top of my eyes. This is kind of the best trick I've
found to making sure that my eye makeup doesn't crease throughout the day. I'm going to be
taking Urban Decay's Hot Pants which is kind of this cooler toned pink, and I'm going to
blend this into the outer corners and into the crease with a fluffy brush. Then, taking
a slightly more precise brush, I'm going to go in with Woodstock, which is a super hot
pink, and I'm going to start tracing out the crease of my eye. The one trick I have for
this is to keep your eyes open. I have the hardest time finding my crease when my eyes
are closed for whatever reason, or I get it in the wrong spot, so the best way I've found
to kind of trace out the crease is to keep my eyes open. To kind of blur that pink out
a little bit, I'm going to be taking that big fluffy brush, load it up with a little
bit more Woodstock, and then place it right on top of where I placed Hot Pants. Then I'm
going to go in with the NYX Eye Shadow Base, this is just pure white, if you have the Jumbo
Eye Shadow Pencil in Milk it's pretty much the exact same thing, it's just kind of a
de-potted version of it. And I'm going to place this all over my lid making sure not
to go too far into the crease at all, we want there to be a pretty defined line between
the two. Then taking my beloved Lorac Pro Palette, I'm going to be taking the colors
Nude and Champagne. Nude is slightly lighter than Champagne and it's a more satin toned
whereas Champagne has more of a glitter to it. I'm going to be placing Nude right on
top of the white eye shadow base on the inner half of my lid, and then Champagne is going
to go directly next to it on the outer half of my lid. Then with that same precision brush,
I'm going to go in with the color Black from the Lorac Pro Palette. You'll notice that
this black is not actually that black, it's more, it has kind of a gunmeatal grey tone
to it, it's more bluish toned. So I'm going to trace this black color just right where
my eye creases, no where else, just right where it creases, and then I'm going to blend
that out with a little bit of Woodstock on that big fluffy brush again. Then I went in
with the gorgeous Oil Slick, an Urban Decay color, you'll notice it kind of looks like
asphalt. And I actually used an angled eyeliner brush for this and I just placed this right
on top of where I put Black. And then I also defined the outer corner of my eyes a little
bit, that outer "V". I'm going to blend Oil Slick out just a little bit, definitely try
not to over blend though, otherwise the colors have the potential to look pretty muddy, so
I'm only blending this one out just a tiny, tiny bit. Then with a tiny brush, I'm going
to bring Woodstock down to my lower lash line. Then I'm going to take a black eyeliner and
I'm gonna tight line my eyes as well as line the water line on the lower lash line. Then
going in with that same angled eye liner brush, and the color Oil Slick, I'm going to line
the lower lash line just the outer half of it, and then I'm going to go in with Woodstock
and kind of define that inner bit a little bit more. Then going in with a mystery L'Oreal
liquid eye liner, I'm going to line my eyes and I'm gonna wing it out at the very ends.
And I'm all about defining eyebrows, so that's what I'm gonna do now. So for mascara, this
is going to be a little bit different. I'm going to be using two different mascaras and
I'm going to be applying three different coats. So the first coat and the last coat are gonna
be the Covergirl Clump Crusher mascara. I really like this mascara for separating my
lashes because it does a really, really good job of it. The second mascara we're gonna
use is the Maybelline The Falsies Big Eyes mascara. This mascara deposits a lot more
product which is why I like to use it in between the Clump Crusher mascara, because I feel
like it just kind of adds to the whole "big, voluminous, long lashes" effect, whereas the
Clump Crusher mascara separates really well. Taking a few Q-Tips, I'm just gonna clean
up the edges a bit. Then I'm gonna pin my hair up and I'm going to apply my foundation.
I might as well be the color "ghost" when it comes to foundation. I like to really use
my foundation just to cover up any red spots. I don't like to put it all over my face, just
around my nose and my chin is where I like to focus the foundation the most. And I also
like to use my foundation to kind of define my eye makeup a little bit more as well. Then
I'm going to go in with a little bit more face powder, and this time I'm going to focus
it a little bit more under the eyes more than anything else. I'm going to deposit the face
powder there first, and then whatever's left on the brush, I'm just gonna kind of sweep
that around my face. I'm going to apply this beautiful MAC lipstick, it's in Creme Cup
which is the most perfect nude for me, I'm going to apply this to my lips and then I'm
going to go over that with this mystery drugstore gloss. I believe it's a Maybelline gloss,
I have no idea what it is because there is no label on it whatsoever. It's just a peachy
toned nude lip gloss and I'm going to put that right on top. I'm going to take a little
bit more of the color Woodstock actually, the eye shadow, and I'm going to apply that
to my cheeks, just a tiny, tiny bit, we don't want a lot because obviously it's really hot
pink. I hope you guys enjoyed, and remember to check out the description bar below for
