Winter Party Makeup Look Tutorial 2

Hello my beauties! Today I have another Winter inspired makeup look but this time I wanted to be a little more dramatic. I hope you guys enjoy my video. Let me know what you guys think of this tutorial.

I love creating new looks and I think makeup is all about trial and error. If you find something that works for you then, by all means, go for it! I believe that practice makes perfect. So never quit! Practicing will help you get to know your face better and you'll know what looks good on you and what you like. This is a pretty easy makeup tutorial for any beginners. 

Here's what you'll need:

Tools:

Tape

Angled brush

Flat top brush

Blush brush

Bronzer brush

Powder brush

Beauty sponge

Makeup I used:

Revlon Colorstay Dry/Normal Skin Foundation #220

MAC Concealer NW15

Give Me Sun MAC Bronzer

LoveJoy MAC Blush

ELF Eye primer

NYX Eye Pencil Milk

MAC Eyeshadow Carbon

MAC Eyeshadow Electra

Rimmel x Kate Moss #08

Winter Makeup Essentials

Hello my dears, how is everyone today? I hope you're all doing well and are having a wonderful winter break! Speaking of a winter break I am so excited to be going on vacation this Friday (don't worry there will be a video up). But because I'm going on vacation I won't be posting videos up next week (it's very difficult to do since I wont have wifi to connect my laptop. I'm sorry dolls!). But expect more videos up when I return. Vlogs, maybe? Let me know if you're interested in seeing a bit of my vacation! 

I'll be letting you know, via Instagram and Twitter, where I'm going soon! So stay tuned because I know you'll be excited!

But, back to our video for today. I wanted to share with you guys my makeup essentials for the winter time. I decided to do this since it gets so cold (in other places) that sometimes it's hard to accessories when you're trying to stay warm. These are the main products that us girls switch up season to season. Here are the ones on my winter list this year. 

I hope you guys like this video! Let me know what are your winter makeup essentials!

BCA: Week 4: My Favorite Eye & Misc Products!

Week 4 - Eye & Misc Products - Dec 23 - Dec 29, 2013

Week 5 - Facial Care Products & Tools - Dec 30 - Jan 4, 2014

Week 4 of the Beauty Crown Awards covers Eye & Misc Products. Below are my Week 4 selections:

*None Of These Pictures Are Mine*

EYES

Primer: I've tried a lot of primers in the past two/three years. But my favorite is the MAC paint pots. They don't move, crease, or make your lids oily. They hold the shadows and last all night long! I love using Painterly as a base or by it's self. I'll need to get a new one because the one I have has already run out!

Pressed Shadows: I want to say MAC but some may just roll their eyes. I'm sorry! But I must speak the truth. Their pressed shadows are amazing! They are super pigmented and last such a long time. No major fall out and such a wide variety of shades to choose from.

Pigments: I am currently loving Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics' pigments. They are incredible!

Sephora now carries their Lip Tars (which I recommend). I get so emotional seeing this brand grow and make it big. I remember when they were so unknown!

Mascara: Ugh, what a toughy! I am stuck between my always trusty Maybelline Full N' Soft mascara and my new favorite Revlon Lash Potion. Both do an amazing job and have their own unique qualities. Full N' Soft is perfect for an effortless, natural makeup look. Lash Potion is the one you want to grab when you're heading out to a party. It will give you long, thick lashes.

Eyeliner: I've got two (I'm such an indecisive person). For liquid liner I reach for my Stila all day waterproof liquid liner for a perfect winged liner. When I want a pencil liner I get my Maybelline Define-A-Line waterproof pencil.

Cream Shadows: I have a small palette of cream shadows from Revlon that are amazing! They are shimmers and range from cream colors to brown/bronze shades. I love that with just a swipe you can blend it effortlessly on to your lid and you're done!

Palette: I would have to say my Stila palette (don't ask me the name cause I have no idea!). It is amazing how pigmented the shadows are. The palette is a trio ranging from very light beige, a a soft brown, and a reddish sparkly brown. I love them so much and use them often in the winter time.

*No Picture Available sorry*

Brow Kit: I don't use a brow kit as my brows are super thick. But when I do I use the Milani brow kit that comes with a little brush and tweezers. It also has two shadows to fill in your brows and a highlighter.

MISC

Beauty Magazine: To be honest I don't know any beauty magazines! (Omg this is embarrasing lol). My favorite magazine to read, that has beauty related articles, is Glamour. It's perfect for me as it gives me an insigt view on celebrity fashion, but it also shows me the trends for next season.

Beauty Subscription: I really wish I had a beauty subscription right now lol. But I guess I will tell you which one I would want. I think it's between Ipsy and Glambox. I don't know, I've heard great )and bad) things about both. But I'm intrigued by both so it's a tie!

Beauty Product from Subscription: Well, can't really comment can I?

I hope you guys enjoyed this post. Did you participate too?

I Love Make-Up Tag!

Hello loves and welcome back to my blog! I know it's been a crazy week and we all just want to kick up our heels, or is that just me? Well, for those who want a quick read continue reading!

I was tagged by the lovely Micaylah from BeautifulJewell. Once you're done reading this you can check out her answers to this quick and fun "I <3 Make-up Tag". Hope you enjoy it and get to know me a little better!

1. When did you begin loving make-up?

It took me a long time to love make-up. I'm very lazy so I didn't like to take the mascara off (mascara was my worst enemy lol). I would say I started loving make-up around the age of 15/16. That's when I started experimenting more.

2. How do you feel without make-up?

I'm not the kind of girl that really cares to dress up every single day. I get tired and lazy so quickly. But when I go out without make-up I feel like I'm being looked at the wrong way. I don't even know why! Who cares if I'm wearing make-up or not? I can be beautiful without it. Too bad society makes us girls feel the need to wear it. We shouldn't feel bad about ourselves and yet we still do (myself included).

3. What do you like about make-up?

I love everything about make-up. The different textures, shades, forms, and styles. I love that you can create a whole different look or just enhance your natural beauty. I love that you can try purple lips today and a nude lip tomorrow. The fact that it's not permanent gives me liberty to try new things and not be afraid of messing up.

4. Three holy grail items:

-My Cereve Moisturizer to get rid of all my dry, problamatic areas.
-My Nars concealer that works magic under my dark circles.
-My Full N' Soft Mascara by Maybelline that makes my lashes incredibly long!
