Tutorial: Smokey Eye

Hello Lovelies!


  Today I'm going to do a smokey eye using the Naked 2 palette. If you don't have the Naked 2 palette, there are many colors from other palettes or kits that you can use instead!




1. Put on your base and do your eyebrows. I used BB cream, concealer, and powder for my base, and used e.l.f Studio Eyebrow Kit on my brows.



2. Pat the shade "Bootycall" onto your lids, brow bone, and inner corners. 

3. Put the shade "Tease" onto your lid, crease, and all the way along the lower lash line. Blend with a fluffy brush.

4. Place the shade "Busted" in the outer V of the lid, and half way along the lower lash line.

5. With an angled brush, line half of the upper lash line(you can choose to make a winged look, or make it more natural), and the outer third of the bottom lash line. 

6. Curl your lashes and apply mascara. 

7. Apply blush, and your lip product of choice… and you're finished! 




The blush I used was Soft Lights in the shade "Prism" by Smashbox, and the lip product I used was Loreal Paris Brilliant Shine Lipgloss in the shade "Pixie 438."




I hope you all enjoyed my tutorial! Have a lovely day:)

Review: Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss

Hello Lovelies!


 Today I am reviewing the Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss(if you didn't know by the title…). This lipgloss comes in 12 super gorgeous shades. First, let me tell you how lovely these are. They go on smoothly, and the color pay-off is great. They are not sticky at all, and leave your lips feeling amazing. Now... let me tell you the only downside. THEY DON'T STAY ON. I love the color, but it only takes a little while for the color to start fading away. Don't let this stop you from purchasing, however, because they are amazing in color and consistency. You just have to re-apply. Bummer, I know. So don't buy this product expecting all-day color. But what really lasts all day anyway? In the end, this lipgloss is lovely, but just won't stick with you for 24 hours.



This shade above is called "Pink Pop," and is one of my favorites.





Have a lovely day!
