Setting Sun

Hey everyone!
Today's look is quite a Summery look and is very much inspired by a Summer sunset. In Summer the colours in the sunsets are so vibrant and intense that I just had to do a look inspired by it. I wanted the colours to be super bright and punchy.
 I put the yellow on the center of the lid to act like the sun and surrounded it with the orange and blended them into each other to look like the sunset. There is sometimes hints of purple in the sky during the Summer and there is a very pale blue during a sunset.

Here's the look:






I wanted the skin to not look too heavy so I really buffed in my foundation. You can still see most of my freckles and it still looks like my skin so it keeps the focus on the eyes.


I also went for a very natural lip. Like a my lips but better nude and a touch  of clear gloss. Again this keeps the focus on the eyes.

Disney Princess Series: Jasmine

Hey everyone! So today is my 6th Disney princess inspired look. The look I have for you today is inspired by Princess Jasmine. This was actually one that I could not wait to do and I love how it turned out. I love how it's a dramatic and smokey look but still has the bright colours on the lid, that's definitely my kind of style.

The colour I went for were bright blue to match Jasmines clothes and the gold for her jewellery in the movie. I went for an Arabic style makeup for the overall look as I thought it went well with the style of the movie so I used a navy blue to make it dark and smokey.

Here's the look:



I did quite an intense eyeliner for this look by making it thick and winged out and bringing it into a point on the inner corner to elongate my eyes and make them look bigger. I chose a rosy nude lip to keep the focus on the eyes.
