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)

Skincare & Makeup Haul

Skincare & Makeup Haul I've never done a "haul" on my blog before, but I thought it would be a cool idea plus it would be a sneak peak of things that I'll be trying out for future reviews.  Skincare: I have been loving trying out new skincare items and although my skincare bin is a little full at the moment there was a few things I was running low on and a few things that I couldn't pass on!  I was running low on both makeup removing wipes and micellar water, so I picked these up at Target. I often use a moisturizer from the Simple brand, but I've never tried their wipes or micellar water before. It's cheaper in the long run buying the two pack of wipes, but I do hope these work good!  My nose has once again started getting clogged with blackheads. I've been trying out a few different foundations and wearing makeup just about everyday and my skin just isn't use to that. After taking a two week break from makeup a...

July Monthly Beauty Favorites

  July Monthly Beauty Favorites  I've been keeping my fingernails pretty naturally and trying to get them more healthier and longer looking, but I got this Kokie nail polish in an Ipsy bag a couple months ago and I've been using it a lot this summer on my toes. It's a really pretty periwinkle color. This is in the shade Heavenly. I actually bought this awhile back and used it (at least the body mist, as you can tell) so much. I've recently started using them again and have fallen in love with the scent once again. It's a mixture of vanilla and coconut. Those are my favorites!   FACE: For face care, I've still been using this  tarte Rainforest of the Sea Deep Dive Gel Cleanser . I absolutely  love this stuff! This is a "must have" and "holy grail" for me! It has helped my face problems (I still have some issues of course, but it's improved since using this religiously) so much and doesn't dry my skin out too much a...

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018  You may already know, but I moved all of my subscriptions to my beauty channel: AllyBrianne   You can check out my unboxings there of all of my monthly and seasonal subscriptions.  The reason I'm posting this blog today is because I just got this months Ricky's Cult Crushes in the mail last week. I planned on filming a quick unboxing to post Sunday, but my weekend got away from me so here we are. This is only my second month receiving this subscription. I'm up in the air about it honestly. Last months ( Ricky's Cult Crushes // April 2018 ) was a good box, but sadly the pans in the eyeshadow palette kept falling out! You can see all that business in the video! I was disappointed because the shadows were great.. The packaging not so much.  If you don't know what  Ricky's Cult Crushes is... It is a $11 (now $14, I'll explain) monthly subscription that has mainly beauty items. This is a subscription throug...
