Makeup of the Day- September 23 2011

Today I went for a neutral look again. Hope you like it :)

Eyes: I used the new Maybelline quad I picked up in "Enchanted Forest". I used it pretty much how they show you how to use it except I used the burgundy shade in the outer corner not as a liner. I made sure to blend well. I curled my eyelashes and applied 2 coats of the Falsies mascara.

Lips: I kept it simple with my NYX megashine lip gloss in "Beige".

Face: I did my usual foundation routine and then applied Hard Candy's boxed blush in "Smooth Talker" to the apples of my cheeks.

Makeup of the day-Sept. 22 2011

So I thought I would start to keep a journal of the makeup look I do everyday. Hopefully you like it :)

Today I went for a more neutral look (as I do most days) and I really wanted to use a few of the new items I recently picked up from MAC.(See the post before this for details on my recent MAC visit)

Eyes: - on the lid I used Covergirl's "Tapestry Taupe" single eyeshadow and I blended my new MAC prolongwear eyeshadow in "Keep Your Cool" into the crease and outer corner. I made sure to blend well as the MAC shadow is quite pigmented and is a darker shade. I then used Wet'n wild's single shadow in "Brulee" on the brow bone and inner corner making sure to blend it into the crease. I curled my lashes and applied 2 coats of Maybelline's The Falsies mascara.

Lips: - I kept it simple with a light application of my new MAC lipglass in "Good Times".

Face: I did my usual foundation routine (I will go into more detail in a future post). I then applied a light application of my NYX blush in "Angel" to the apples of my cheeks and toward my temples. I skipped bronzer today.
