Inspired Look!!

Hello Lovelies!!! thank you so much for taking the time to check out my blog. Today I'm so thrilled to share this look with you. I basically came up with this look  which happens to be more nighttime appropriate or even for New Year Eve. I'm not a makeup artist, I'm just a regular girl who loves makeup and this is in no way a tutorial, I'm just sharing with you the products I used and hope that you find some inspiration. The lovely http://mjintheskywithglitter.blogspot.com has encouraged me to do a post on this look, so MJ this ones for you. 

On my skin I used the Covergirl 3 in one foundation, this a new product I'm testing out and so far I'm loving it. It's very full coverage and leaves you skin looking very flawless, I'll definitely keep you posted on my journey with this foundation. I also mixed in a pump of the Loreal magic Lumi primer, which leaves your skin pretty glowy and gorgeous. 
Under my Eyes to cover my dark circles from all my sleepless nights (lol) I used the bare minerals correcting consealer. This also happens to be a new product I'm testing out so we'll see. 

I decided to use my Urbandecay flushed palette which contains bronzer, blush and highlight. This palette is so amazing and great for traveling. I filled in my brows with my Anastasia brow powder, I don't fill my eyebrows too much... Just a few spars areas 

The star of this look are my eyes and I went with my Lorac Pro Palette. This is such a versatile palette, it contains sixteen beautiful colors, eight matte shades and eight shimmery/satin shades. For the base I used my ulta beauty cream shadow in metallic, then laid down slate from the Lorac palette wet using mac fixed plus all over the lid and blended it with taupe the soft brown color in the palette. I then used the color pewter on the inner parts of my lid and continuously blended everything with taupe, just to ensure their are no harsh lines. After acquiring the pigmentation to my satisfaction I used a nyx pigment, which I apologize for not having the name ( it's silvery color with a hit of bronze) just a gorgeous color on the center of my lids, I took the same brush and swept  it on my lower lash line. For an inner corner highlight I use the color called champagne from the palette. 

I then lined my thigt line and also created a winged line. I did two costs of my lights camera lashes mascara and topped the look off with Mac lipstick in Brave and pink buxom lipgloss on the center of my lips. 
Products used for this look. 

Hope you all have a happy new year!
As always Stay Gorgeous.

  1. Dear friend thank you so much for namechecking me and dedicating this post to me!!
    But like I already told you on Instagram, this might be my favourite look from you so far!!!
    What caught my attention the most was the Nyx pigment :-O
    And then the combination with the taupe and the grey, and with the pink lip, you created such a beautiful and universally flattering look!!!
    You also blended it so flawlessly, I love it when you can only see lights and shades and reflects without being able to tell where one shade ends and the other one begins, or distinguish each single shade.
    That's why I had to ask what products you had used :-)

    Let me take this opportunity to wish you a very Happy New Year for you and your family!!
    Always keep in touch,
    big hug
    your MJ <3
