Floral Series: Lilacs

Floral Series: Lilacs 

I've always loved "inspo" looks based off series and I've watched plenty of videos of them, as well as seen many on Instagram. I wanted to try my hand at one. Although, I think creating looks from shows/movies for inspiration is really cool, I still wanted to keep my first "series" a little simpler. I've seen so many series of gemstones and really like the idea of it, but instead I thought I would try to do one that I personally haven't seen before. Even though I'm highly sure a floral one has been done. I want to keep the inspo just from the actual image of a flower and create a look based off of it! 
A series is such a fun idea and it really is a great way to get creative, especially on the days when you feel repetitive with your makeup and want a change. 
For the next couple of months (every other Thursday blog) I will be creating looks from floral images and I think it's perfect for the spring time! I was in such a purple mood this day so I chose Lilacs to be my first look. If you want to see how I created this look then keep on reading.

I took the top left pale shade (clarity) as my base shade, then I added just a little of the yellow shade (buttercup) that is right under the first shade just in the crease.
Next I flipped the palette to the other side and added the purple shade (lover) to my crease as well to start the purples in this look. 
I used these three gorgeous shades from my Colour Pop Z Palette. I put the light pink shade (so jaded) all over the lid and I also highlighted my very inner corner and brow bone area with it. Then I added the brighter purple shade (crown jewel) to my crease and really blended this shade around. I blended upwards with it and even took it down my lid as well, just keeping enough pink showing through above and below the purples. I also cat eyed this shade out to a point. Touch ups were needed with the pink shade. Although I loved the look there I still wanted to throw the darker purple shade (hung up) in the outer corner and some in the crease just to add more to the purple color range and because I was loving the darker lilacs in the photo. I added the pink shade (so jaded) to the inner part of my lower lash line. 
To finish the eyeshadow I switched it up a little and wanted to keep the pink on the edges to mimic the lilac so I took the bottom left pink matte shade (bestie) and added that on the rest of my lower lash line.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Duo Blender & Shader ( crease & lower lash line)
Finger (lid)

Tower 28 Beauty | Makeup

 To the brand that has opened my eyes to a creative outlet while thinking of my skin all the time. Tower 28 Beauty has proved to me that you can have fun with makeup while taking your skin into consideration the entire time. While it's still fun to dip into all my other makeup I have found so much joy in my lightweight makeup ways. The shift happened after trying more cream products and Tower 28 has been one of them. I eyed the beauty of this brand for a while and then took the plunge with their cream bronzer, Bronzino in the shade Sun Coast (the lightest to go with my fair complexion), Beach Please Balm Blush in the shade Power Hour , and a couple of their ShineOn Lip Jellies (Almond & Cashew) .  Their creams are balms so you get a full shine to your look. They not only make your skin look glossy and healthy but also vibrant with the pigment. The blushes really pack a punch in pigment and can be worn as a flush of color or built-up. The bronzer is a little less pigmented th

Beauty Tuesday

For my first " Beauty Tuesday", I thought I would start it off with my May Ipsy bag. If you're not familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly subscription bag with 4-5 full and/or sample size beauty products. This June marks two years that I've received a bag. Even though some bags are hit or miss, I've continued to be subscribed so I can try out new items. I feel like Ipsy has really upped their game this year and I've loved every bag I've gotten. I'll be sharing my bag with you every month with my own personal review of the bag itself, and each product in it. I'll also blog about how certain makeup wears, feels, and my own opinion of the product. The same for skincare products, and how they work with my skin type.  I hope you enjoy my May 2017 Glam Bag (If you're interested in subscribing to Ipsy's monthly Glam Bag, I'll post the link down below). I'm more into Ipsy for the actual products and not the bags, but I'll admit the ba

Alamar Cosmetics Spanglish | Makeup

I've been loving Alamar since it started and I love to see how far they have come. It's an indie brand I will always recommend so to then get their products in Boxycharm or Boxy Pop Up sales its a win win! That's how I got my Spanglish palette . You can already see this is an Ally palette by the purples! It's a gorgeous one with buttery mattes and stunning metallics. I also appreciate the subtle browns while also having the pops of color too. I found the color story pretty, but also odd. It's not one you see a lot but it does work. I have also found myself creating unique shades by mixing shades together. It's definitely a cute summer moment that you won't be disappointed with.  Swatches left to right: Pero Like, Eres Un Show, Tiene Swing, Guao, Ay Que Cute, Jajaja, Muy Excited, & Ponte Hyper.  Did you miss these blogs?  Lizzie McGuire x ColourPop | Makeup KVD Beauty Edge of Reality | Makeup Beautbean x Shroud It's Freakin' Bats | Makeup I als
