Marigold // Floral Series

Marigold // Floral Series 
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. 

I have made it to my 5th and final look for this floral series. If you have followed along, thank you so much! If not, you can still check out my others (linked at the bottom) that I have created the past couple of months. 

Today I wanted to play with more warm tones. The color orange stuck out the most for what I needed in this series so I went with these beautiful Spun Orange Marigolds. The main color and inspo is coming from the orange, but with accents of yellow and red. I wanted to keep this look more fun than wearable. This look was literally piling shade on shade over and over, blending until my hand hurt, and getting creative with a red wing.

Like I said before, this was just a fun creative look that came to mind when looking at the flower image. I automatically wanted to play with orange shades, add a touch of yellow, and incorporate red into the look. Before I even started the eyes I thought about a red wing. Since  I didn't have a liquid liner in a red shade I used a liquid lipstick I had on hand. I thought it would wrap up the eye look nicely or be a complete clashing fail. I went with my gut and the fact that this is an inspo look anyways. That was what I was inspired to create! 

This look was a whole lot of blending and a whole lot of adding/piling up shades. So I will run down what shades I used in each palette, but again I just added and blended until I was happy with the outcome. 

* From the Jaclyn Hill palette I used silk creme (top row third from the left) as my base/transition shade to begin the look before using bright colors. I then added the shade creamscicle (second row first shade on the left) to the crease as well to start the warm yellow/orange shades. 

** I went in with the Bright Lights Palette next. I added brûlée to the crease and lit, which is such a nice neon yellow, to my inner corner and lid. 

*** The star of the show for the orange shades is most definitely devil from the Saint & Sinner palette. I blended that shade over and over. I also went back in with previous orange shades to add those different color affects to this look and ended by adding just a tad more of the yellow shade to my inner corner since we lost a lot of it with all the blending. 

**** Finishing the look with the red wing (although they say the Jeffree Star liquid lipsticks are "eye safe", use them at your own risk. I had no issues with them, but I also didn't get them in my eye) was the perfect touch to throw a red balance into the look. I was super happy with it.

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
