Face Of The Day: Subtle Smokey Eye & Bright Lip

Today’s look includes a subtle smokey eye, bright lips and glowy skin. I used my new Barry M lip crayon in Sirius on my lips and I love the result, it’s brightened up my whole complexion and goes hand in hand with the smokey eye.

Face
Foundation: I used my Mac Pro Longwear Foundation in Nw15 which I’ve only recently bought and I love it!
Concealer: I applied the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer on my blemishes and under my eyes in a triangular shape to highlight.
Bronzer and Blush: For bronzer I used my all time favourite NYC bronzer in sunny, and for blush I went with Sleeks Blush in Rose Gold.
As Prolongwear is quite a matte foundation I don’t feel the need to powder my face on a normal day unless I know I’m going to be out all day.

Eyes
To start I primed my eyes using Avon’s eye primer in light beige to create a smooth base for the eyeshadows.
Eyeshadow:I used YDK from the Naked 2 palette all along my lid, followed by Tease in the crease. To deepen the look I then applied Snakebite into the outer v and then blended it together with the lightest brown colour from my Benefit Brow Kit which I also used to fill in my eyebrows. To bring the look together I applied a blend of YDK and Tease underneath my eyes.
Eyeliner: I was also brave and done a small wing with the cheap and cheerful Asda Liquid Eyeliner, this stuff is great for 1.99!
Mascara: To finish off I used my favourite mascara at the minute which is the Chanel Volume Le Chanel.

Lips
I used my new Barry M Hi Shine Lip Crayon in Sirius on my lips and I think that the colour really brought the look together. I love the high shine result that it gave my lips, I’m just loving this product!

FOTD: My Everyday College Make Up

Hey guys!
I don’t normally wear makeup on a Sunday as I typically don’t tend to go anywhere, today however I thought i’d recreate my ‘everyday make up look’ that I wear to college etc. for you guys. I always keep my eyes neutral using my naked pallets or even  just a bronzer through my crease and a bright inner corner highlight. My lip colour changes daily daily depending on my mood but I decided to go with a dark nude for this post as it was my most worn colour throughout the week.

Face

Foundation – During the weekdays I use a mix of Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation and the Bioderma Photoderm Tinted Cream. I first used the Bioderma tinted cream whilst on holiday in Egypt last year as a sunscreen but ended up loving the finish it gave my skin so much that I now mix a bit in with my foundation! I applied the mix of these two with a Real Techniques Buffing brush.

Concealer – I applied the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer under my eyes in a triangle shape to highlight and also along the bridge of my nose.

Powder – I powdered my t-zone with the Maybeline Fit Me Powder .

Bronzer – I applied the bronzer from the Sleek Contour Kit to my cheekbones, temples and jaw, and applied the highlight colour down the bridge of my nose and tops of my cheekbones.

Blush – To finish off my face I used my all time favorite blush from Sleek in Rose Gold.

Eyes and Eyebrows

Eyeshadow – I’ve slept late for college everyday this week (ooooops) and havent had much time to potch with eyeshadow so instead I simply used the same Sleek Contour Kit that I used on my face in my eyes. I applied the highlight shade all over my lid,  bronzer in the crease and Urban Decays Half Baked in the inner corner.

Eyeliner – Believe it or not I used Asda’s Liquid Eyeliner to make a small line just above my lash line. This stuff is actually really good and lasts around 8 hours without smudging.

Mascara – For mascara I used the Chanel Volume De Chanelone of my favourite mascaras ever!

Eyebrows – I used the Benefit Brows A Go Go which I’ve used for the past 2 years now.

Lips

I used Loreal Colour Riche Lipstick in Sweet Lychee it’s a darker nude that’s perfect for everyday!
