Disney Princess Series: Snow White

Hey everyone! So I have the next look in my Disney Princess series for you today. This one is up and ready to go pretty quick because I had a sudden moment of motivation to get lots of stuff done :P

Today's look is going to be Snow White. The colors of Snow Whites dress are blue, yellow and a little red. Blue and yellow are the main colors so I used them for most of the look while I used red rhinestones to represent the red details on the sleeves of her dress. I wanted the look to be pretty bold and eye catching to make it different from the last two looks in the series which were quite soft.

Here's the look:




I went for a bright red lip because in the movie Snow White is described as having "lips red as the rose. Hair black as ebony. Skin white as snow." You could always choose a nude shade if this is too much but I thought it suited the look pretty well.


Here is a list of the products that I used:
Face: Fuschia Makeup Moisture Foundation in 1. Nude
         Collection Cosmetics Lasting Perfection Concealer in Fair
         ELF HD Powder
         Sleek Makeup Blush By 3 Californ.I.A in OC
         Benefit Dallas Bronzer

Disney Princess Series: Sleeping Beauty

Hey everyone! I have the next installment of my Disney Princess series for you. Today's princess is Princess Aurora otherwise known as Sleeping Beauty. I stuck with the colors of her dress for this look which is a variety of shades of pink. Again I chose soft pastel pinks and kept the look soft and blended.
Instead of doing black liner, which I thought would have looked too harsh, I went chose to do just the pink glitter liner to represent the magic from the fairies,  Flora, Fauna and Merryweather.

Here's the look:





I went for a sheer baby pink lip to keep the focus on the eyes and to keep the overall look really soft.


Here's a list of the products I used:
Face: Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 115
         Maybelline Fit me Concealer in 15

Disney Princess Series: Cinderella

Hey everyone! I have decided to do a makeup series based on the Disney Princesses. I know nearly everyone has done this series but I wanted to have a go and show my interpretation of the princesses. I love the princesses and I have a couple favorites like Ariel, Anna of Arendelle, Rapunzel and Princess Tiana.
I'm kicking off this series with my Cinderella inspired look.
I went with the colors in her dress as my color scheme, so pastel blue and white. I kept the blending of the colors really soft to get a nice gradient and also with the edges I kept them soft and almost blurred out.

Here's the look:



I used an iridescent blue glitter on the outer corner just under the wing and a little on the inner corner to represent the magic of the fairy godmother.


I went for a light rosy pink lip to keep the look light and girly and I thought it was similar to the color of Cinderella's lips.

Here is a list of the products I used:
Face: Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 115
         Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 15
         ELF HD Translucent Powder
         Benefit Dandelion Blush
         Benefit Dallas Bronzer 
         Essence Shimmer Powder
Eyes: ELF Eyelid Primer

         Essence Lash and Brow Gel
         NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk
         Inglot Eyeshadow Matte 373
         Inglot Eyeshadow D.S 478
         Essence Color Arts Pigment in 17
         NYC Sparkle Eye Dust in Opal Sparkle

Very Pink Valentine

Hey everyone! Today's look is my second Valentine's Day makeup for this year. It is a lot brighter and as the title say 'very pink'. I wanted it to be an obvious Valentine look with the pink eyes and pink lips. This is the look I wore on Valentine's Day and it's very much my style. I loved it and the pink eyes aren't as scary as some people say.

Here's the look:



I recently got a set of samples from the indie brand Femme Fatale Cosmetics and I may have fallen in love with them. One of the samples was Faerie Fire which is a light baby pink with a green duo-chrome sparkle. It's so beautiful and I had to use if in a look. I think the green shimmer, (which isn't crazy noticeable mainly when it hits the light), adds something a little more interesting to the look .


I chose a bright neon pink lip because I loved how it looks and it's the brightest pink I own. You can always go for a soft neutral pink or a nude to keep the look soft and keep the focus on the eyes.


Here's a list of the products I used:
Face: Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 115
         Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 15
         ELF HD Powder in Translucent
         Benefit Dandelion Blush
         Benefit Dallas Bronzer
Eyes: ELF Eyelid Primer
         Inglot Matte Eyeshadow in 358 (Brows)
         Essence Lash and Brow Gel 
         Inglot Eyeshadow Matte 362
         Inglot Eyeshadow D.S 487
         Inglot Rainbow Shadow in 124R
         Femme Fatale Cosmetics Eyeshadow in Faerie Fire
         Inglot Eyeshadow 354
         Inglot Eyeshadow 373
         Inglot AMC Shine 24
         Inglot AMC 63
         Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Eye Pencil in Zero

Blue Moon

Hey everyone!
For today's look I came up with is a dark and smokey look but still has a little light. I was inspired by the winter nights and the moonlight. I went for navy as the winter nights and and the light blue duo-chrome represents the moonlight. The shape I went for was a round shape with the darker shade on the outer and inner corners and the lighter shade on the center of the lid. This creates a nice rounded shape to the eye and also looks like a reflection of light on the lid.

Here's what I came up with:





For the lips I went for a light and sheer nude lipgloss to keep the focus on the eyes.


Here's a list of all the products that I used:
Face: Catrice BB Allround Foundation Multi-Benefit Make Up 010 Light Beige
