Sultry Valentine's Look

This is the last look I am posting for Valentine's Day. Again, the inspiration for the colour scheme is blatantly obvious. Perhaps I will post an anti-Valentine's Day look...

I had massive amounts of trouble getting decent lighting for these, and the focus of the camera was non-existent. So forgive the horror of my face that you are about to see... with a pink smokey eye! :)

Blurry :(

 I am experimenting with foundations at the moment... I have come to the conclusion that I hate foundation pretty much altogether, aside from the first hour I wear it. Seeking a solution.

Kissy Face!

 Closeups...

Looking down

HellOO.

Sidenote: Overall, I'd say this particular blog post is a failure. I could not get decent pictures all by myself, and i didn't even remember to put anything on my lips.

Anyhow, I posted it because I liked how the makeup turned out.
Ok bye now!

Simple Valentine's Day Look

Hello viewer! (Singular)
Valentine's day is in a couple of weeks and I figured it would be a good idea to upload a couple different looks here.
This one is just a soft, daytime face that is easy to do and does not take much to do well.

My face

Why not add a cute bow for the occasion?

Some closeups of eyes and lips...

Yellow Lips?!

This one is for you, Kyle.
Kyle is my boyfriend who loves Spongebob Squarepants and bright colours very much.
Notice the new, yellow addition to my blog over there to your right? →
Inspired by Kyle's quirky and bright personality is this unusual lip-focused look, if ya wanna call it that...

We all live in a yellow submarine♫

Because of the lighting in the pictures, my skin looks a funny colour and my lips look like duck lips.... But they're yellow so it's all good.

...And they were aaalll yellow♫

I don't see any reason why lips cannot be a colour other than pink or red or things like that. I like to have fun with colour, and while this may not be your ideal lip for school, you may want to try it out to wear to some kind of sporting event where the team colours are, oh I don't know, BLACK AND YELLOW.... <3 PCHS.
Moving on. People with a lot of redness in their skin might want to consider trying a colour other than yellow for this. Yellow will make redness look even worse. So will green.

Products Used:

-Lip Smackers Vanilla lips balm (I wiped most of it off once it soaked in)
-NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk (any white pencil would do, applied all over the lips)
-A mix of clear lip gloss, a small chunk of white eyeliner, and a whole bunch of powder from the following eyeshadows:

1. Inglot #60
2. Inglot #474

I just scraped the eyeshadow with a concealer brush and mixed it on the back of my hand with the gloss and pencil to make a kind of lipstick. I then applied it with a lip brush. The end!

 I had a lot of fun with this, and I hope you all try something like it in different colours. Who says you need to hunt down some expensive European company for yellow lips? Add some polka dots while you're at it.
