An evening out

   Hey hey! Last night I went out with my roommate and some other friends to celebrate her engagement and as I was getting ready I thought I'd share what I used!


   I decided to go with a more simple look since it was really hot out and I didn't want the products to melt off my face. I started off with covergirl BB cream and then followed with my Revlon Photo Ready foundation. This is my favorite foundation so I love when I get the chance to use it and make it look flawless! I then applied my Maybellene mineral powder to really set my foundation. I followed this with my absolute favorite bronzer, NARS Laguna. Since I've discovered tho bronzer, I refuse to use any other bronzer because Laguna is so phenomenal. Next I used NARS Madly blush and this is also my favorite since it is so complementary to my skin tone. I finished off using my Smashbox eyebrow duo in brunette to fill in the sparse spots in my brows.

   For my eyes, I used NYX jumbo eye pencil in yogurt as a base and followed with two of my NARS eyeshadow duos - Alhambra and Kalahari. I love these because they are 4 colors which can be use interchangeably and they are so flattering on every skin tone. I used the  Kalahari duo on my lid and then blended them in with the light Alhambra shadows as a highlight/blender. At this point, I couldn't decide if I wanted to follow with my liquid eyeliner or just leave them as a subtle smokey eye. I decided to scratch that idea and just use my Revlon color stay eye pencil in dark brown to line my lower water and lash line and then my upper waterline for a little extra definition. I finished the eyes off by first applying 2 coats of Urban Decay lush lash mascara and then a nice coat of L'oreal telescopic shocking extensions mascara.

   Finally, to complete my look, I applied Revlon Peony lip gloss for a nice subtle shine.



Toodles!
