Winter Doesn't Have To Be Boring....

Hello Sugarpies!!! :D I hope everyone is well and has had a fabulous weekend. The dull cold days of winter have approached the Northern Hemisphere and the fashion does not seem as vivid around this time of year.

Here is my outfit of the day , I hope you all like it! :D

Veronica Lake Inspired Make Up ( Rose Gold Eyes & Red Lips )

Hello Sugarpies , I hope everyone is well. It has been awhile since I have posted a make up look. But this morning I was a little bored and started playing around with my make up as you do lol. I was inspired by Veronica Lake to create a simple classic make up look.

Steps

1. Face - To start off my make up look , I used my Max Factor face finity all day primer , to prime my face. I then mixed my sleek new skin revive foundation in the shade "Linen" and my Bourjois healthy mix foundation in the shade "Light Vanilla" together to create a shade that matches my skin tone. Using my natural collection green corrector, I concealed any spots that was peeping through my foundation ( Green concealer cancels out the redness in spots and blemishes.)

2. Cheeks - For my cheeks , I used Mua Mosaic "Sunkissed" bronzer on the apples of my cheeks and down the centre of my nose. I then applied a tiny bit of my Bourjois blush in the shade "Lilas D'or" on the apples of my cheeks over the top of my bronzer , for an extra bit of colour.

3. Eyes - For my eyeshadow I used the colours "Pretty In Paris" and "Meet In Madrid" from my favourite Sleek eyeshadow palette , the "i-Divine Vintage Romance" palette. Firstly I applied the colour " Pretty In Paris" across the whole of my eye lid and then I applied "Meet In Madrid" in the inner crease of my eye lid.

For my lashes I used my "L'Oreal Miss Manga" mascara. To finish my eye make up , I applied my MUA eye pencil in the shade "Snow White" to my lower water line.

4. Lips - To outline my lips , I used a MUA lip pencil in the shade "Red Drama." I then used my "L'Oreal Colour Richie Privee Red Collection" in the shade "Blake."

5. Finally Touches - To finish off my make up look , I used "MUA Undress Your Skin Highlighter" in the shade "Gold" on the tip of my nose , across my cheek bones and across my forehead.
