I am sorry this took me so long to post, I have been extremely busy once again. This is great for school since it has just a hint of color. It is also a great daytime look for whatever you are doing, shopping, running around or just out with your boyfriend. The best part is that it is super fast to do, I usually do this on a lazy day when I don't feel like getting all dolled up :)
First apply primer, foundation, concealer, powder, eyelid primer and fill in your eyebrows. I am only using three eyeshadow colors for this look. Using Cover Girls Coffee Shop 260 eyeshadow quad we will start with the second shade of brown. You will apply that all over the base of your eyelid then take a blending brush and blend the color up beyond the crease of your eyelid. Fade the color up and out.
Then take the darkest color of brown and apply right above your crease. Do the same with this color fade the color up and out. Be careful how much you bring the color out, you don't want to get too close to your eyebrow.
Using the white color in the quad and apply right on your brow bone and also in the inner corner of your eye. This will help brighten your eyes and accentuate your eyebrows.
You now want to line the top of your eyes very lightly. Using Stila's Smudge Pot in black cat apple a very thin line. You want to make it very faint since you want the colorful eyeliner to stick out more. This just helps give your eyes a shape and completes the look, without it your eyes look naked.
Now take an eye pencil your choice of the color and apply on your waterline. If your pencil doesn't show much on your waterline then apply also on your lower lash line. Don't worry about getting too thick of a line, just take a q-tip dipped in eye makeup remover and clean up the line a bit. I am using Cargo's Swimmables waterproof pencil which doesn't apply as smoothly as I'd like it to but I applied just below my lower lashes and I really liked the look. MAC has really good pencils that apply nicely on your waterline they also have really vibrant colors. Don't have any colorful eyeliners? You can use eyeshadow! Choose and eyeshadow and you can do one of two things, either just apply it on your lower lash line with a flat brush dry or apply wet. This also gives you a lot more options if you don't have many eyeliners that are "stand out" colors.
For blush I just stuck with the bronzed look, I am actually using an eyeshadow for a bronzer/blush. I just applied right under my cheek bones and a light brush on my nose, chin and forehead. I am just using Ulta's brown eyeshadow. You can use either an eyeshadow, or bronzer, depending on the look you want.
Curl and apply your favorite mascara. Apply a lipgloss with a bit of a brownish sparkly tint to finish off the look :) See how easy that was? You want to try it yourself now don't ya? ;) If you have any questions or if I didn't make sense and you are confused by my horrible rambling then email me! If you have any suggestions or want to know how to do/apply something drop me an email at
