Stormy Night Makeup Tutorial

Hello! A few days ago I was sitting on my couch, groaning in boredom, while simultaneously enjoying the wash-over feeling from hearing sheets of rain hitting the street outside. Pitter-patter on the roof, trickling down windows-- 'twas lovely, but confining.

Adele Inspired Makeup on My Auntie

My aunt had a wedding to go to, and entrusted her face unto me!!! I had so much fun creating this Adele inspired look.


The key to an Adele-inspired look is a dark cut-crease blending up to a matte browbone highlight. The lid colour should also be light, with a shimmer inner corner and winged eyeliner. I toned down the eyeliner and added some lash inserts here. I went for a nude-pink lip colour that would not overpower the eyes, and I went for a strong cheek contour like Adele has. The whole look is very 60's mod inspired with a modern edge.

Products Used:

Face:
-L'Oreal face primer
-MAC Face and Body Foundation C5
-Laura Mercier Matte Translucent Powder
-Tarte bronzer in Parke Ave. Princess (heavy contour in the hollows of the cheeks, jaw and temples)
-Nars blush in Orgasm
-MAC eyeshadow in Charcoal Brown

Eyes:
-Urban Decay Primer Potion
-MAC eyeshadow in All That Glitters (shimmery nude colour on the main lid area)
-MAC eyeshadow in Carbon (matte black etched in the crease, outer corners and lower lashline)
-Too Faced eyeshadow in Like a Virgin (fluffed into the black in the crease and lower lashline)
-MAC eyeshadow in Red Violet (used to blend out the crease)
-Inglot eyeshadow #351 (matte cream shade on the browbone)
-Urban Decay eyeshadow in Sin (inner corners)
-Bobbi Brown Gel eyeliner in Caviar Ink
-Quo Lash Inserts
-Duo Lash Adhesive

Lips:
-MAC lipstick in Captive (plummy pink)
-MAC lipstick in Creme d'Nude (creamy beige)

Hope you enjoy!

Glamorous Pewter Smoky Eyes

I hate how silver eyeshadow looks on me. Against my skin tone, it is way too blue-toned and tacky and shiny and UGH.

BUT sometimes I am in the mood for a cool-toned shimmery colour that isn't pink.
Hellooo pewter!
Pewter is a fairly new colour in my arsenal. It is a happy medium between a shiny silver and a warmer beige-bronze sort of olive-ish gold colour. I dunno, figure it out. :)

 

Products used:

Face:
-MAC Face and Body, C3
-Cover FX full coverage cream foundation M40 (under eyes)
-Inglot loose powder
-Inglot bronzer (a bit too orange-toned but I was trying it out)
-MAC mineralize blush in

Eyes:
-UDPP
-Urban Decay eyeshadow in Maui Wowie (shimmery pewter colour on the main lid area)
-Urban Decay eyeshadow in Naked (nude beige colour blended in the crease)
-Urban Decay eyeshadow in Buck (warm brown swept in the crease)
-Urban Decay eyeshadow in Twice Baked (dark brown etched in the crease, lower lashline)
-Bobbie Brown eyeshadow in Espresso (super-dark brown, deep crease)
-Inglot eyeshadow #352 (matte cream colour, browbone)
-Rimmel Glam'Eyes black liquid liner
-Revlon GrowLuscious mascara

Lips:
-Maybelline lip stain in Cherry Pop
