| An overview of most of the products and brushes used (except for lip products) |
Starting with a freshly moisturized face, I used an oil control primer to help keep my oil at bay. I am currently using Anthony Logistics for Men Instant Fix Oil Control.
Next, I moved onto priming my eyes with the included Lorac Behind the Scenes Eye Primer. Using the Unzipped Palette, I applied Unbelievable (a shimmery rose gold) all over my eyelid, blending it slightly into the crease. I usually stop there but for today, I applied Unspoken (a matte medium brown) into the outer corners and a third of the way into the crease.
To complete the look, I applied one coat of waterproof mascara (Maybelline's One by One mascara) and one coat of a lengthening mascara (Benefit's They're Real!). I also filled in my brows with a brow pencil (Revlon's Brow Fantasy in Dark Brown).
For my face makeup, I applied concealer on all my post-acne hyper pigmentation marks (a combination of Loreal's TruMatch Super Blendable Concealer in shade N4-5 and Maybelline's Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer in shade Ivory)^. The Maybelline Concealer has been discontinued in the US but you can find it abroad or online. To correct my dark circles, I applied Maybelline's Instant Age Rewind Dark Circle Concealer in shade Medium under my eyes, blending outward.
For the lips, I applied one layer Lioele's L'cret Miracle Magic Lipstick in shade 01, topping off with Ulta's Lip Balm in shade Sweet.
So that's it for this post! I know it was really quick and the photos weren't all that great but I hope you got the gist of it. I'm probably going to do another one using this palette (or maybe the Naked 3) for a Valentine's Day post. ;) Anyhoo, if you've started school, good luck!
MWAH Musings ♥
- I think some products that I've been using are causing me to break out. I see a bunch of little bumps underneath my skin. Waaahhh!
- I've been making banana, blackberry, and orange juice smoothies. So delicious!
- There's this really cool set of beauty blenders on Sephora and I'm dying to pick them up...holding myself off until I buy my textbooks lol.
