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)

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review You may have seen that I received this Doucce palette in my FabFitFun Winter Box . I have actually tried one of their single pans of eyeshadow from a subscription in the past and I did like it and thought it was super pigmented! First of all, I love how compact and cool this freematic palette is. There is small magnets on the back of each shade and the inside of the actual palette is a magnetic board like a Z-Palette. Then I want to mention how I do really like the color layout of this. It is a pretty neutral layout and has shades that everyone has, but the undertone of these are just so different to me. In a good way for sure! They do have other palette options on their website, along with a "build your own palette" option. I will eventually review the highlight (also a bonus!) that came with this, but I want to talk mainly about the 8 eyeshadows. They're just like the single one I received and is very pigm...

Shroud Cosmetics x BattyBean Hallobean Palette | Makeup

Where to begin with this palette? Could it be the best of this season? Possibly so! This second round of Shroud Cosmetics x BattyBean is everything I could dream up for a fall palette. Sure, I love the past Its Freakin' Bats palette. It is still a favorite with its spooky vibes. What the Hallobean Palette gives is not only a spooky vibe but a fall lovers' essentials in the shade range. With 5 mattes and 4 metallics, you have a good balance in formulas that are some of the best. The mattes are pigmented but are some of the easiest shadows to blend out. The metallics are a buttery dream with the prettiest payoff. These stunning shades that are named after such iconic Halloween movies/characters are everything and new favorites.   BattyBean did an incredible job on another gorgeous color story and Shroud really does deserve all the love/hype they are getting! xx Shades left to right: Ghastly, Afterlife, Crypt, Woodsboro, It's Showtime, Black Flame, Losers Club, Ghoulish...

Amethyst | Gemstone Series

 Amethyst | Gemstone Series  Today is Amethyst. I have to say I started this look a little late in the day and was rushing the beautiful golden hour to get this makeup on and get decent pictures before the sunset.  *If this is the first gemstone look you have seen the others will be linked below, but the idea is creating looks based on gemstones every week and the challenge (not really) using the ColourPop So Jaded palette to create the eye look.  ✖️Brows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Gel (Blonde) ✖️Eyes: Mac Cosmetics Paint Pot (Painterly) ColourPop So Jaded Palette (Ametrine, Flourite, & Amethyst) Tarte Cosmetics Big Ego Mascara I started the look with the Ametrine shade right above my crease and blended it out with a blending brush. Then I took the Flourite shade on my inner corner and brow bone as my highlight.  Then, of course, the Amethyst shade in the palette. I patted it on the lid space with my finger before blending it in my actual ...
