TIP TUESDAY… on a Wednesday: How to do an easy red lip, Perfect for Fall & Winter looks

No Comments

As most of you know, I’ve been heavily rocking out the red lip lately.  It’s a staple for me this time of year, because it’s so glam.  I have been receiving a lot of questions lately from some of my YouTube subscribers regarding how they would apply a red lip so that it will look flawless.  Here is what I do to achieve my red lipped looks. xo Honey

Pop of Purple – Fall Smoky Eyes and Berry Lips 

No Comments
I am a sucker for smoky eyes.  And, I especially love it during the Fall and Winter months because it just adds drama to any outfit.  But, what I truly love about wearing smoky eyes during Fall and Winter is that you can pair it with rich, deep, berry lips and it will absolutely stop traffic.
I created this look because later that day (in the evening honestly) we were going to the County Fair that only happens once a year.  I wanted something that would last all day and that I could use from Day to Night.  Honestly, I had this look on from about 10am to about 11am.  If you want to see my Makeup Removal routine and one of my night time skin care routines, you can check out that video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPLvzfG2GWQ  I was actually using this makeup look on that night when I filmed that video.

GRWM – Purple & Gold Makeup Look using Hello Kitty Wild Thing Palette (and a little chit chat)

No Comments

Happy Thirsty Thursday Hunnies.  I filmed this GRWM (Get Ready With Me) look on Tuesday… I’m a bit late getting it up, however… the actual video before editing was an hour long. lol  Purple & Golds are some of my favorite eye makeup looks and I am really loving the Bronze Shimmer Powder from Mica Beauty to create this look.  Funny thing is… it’s called bronze but looks like a peachy goldish color.  I absolutely love it and I swear I will be using it all up if I don’t learn to pace myself. lol  So – come and chit chat with me and watch me Get Ready while I create this look.  I love it, how about you?  More photos as well as the Video is listed below – check it out! <3

I really wanted to get a better close up of the eye.  What I absolutely love about the products I’m using is how long they last and their longevity.  The photo below (as well as those above) were taken hours after I had applied my makeup.  I actually had to retake the photos because the lighting was so bright over head when I originally took them that it washed out a lot of the color.  I had to wait until the light was a little less overhead, so I took these photos about 4 hours after I had completed the look.

The photo above (with brown background) was taken first thing after I did the look, but as you can tell… they were taken in harsh lighting… so it really washed out the boldness of the color on my eyes.

The photo above was taken a few hours after the second set of photos… the color is slightly fading… but the blush is still visible, loving this blush… and my eye color still visible.  But this was taken about 8 hours after I applied my makeup originally.  Don’t you just love that lip color, I haven’t reapplied all day.  I have done a test and will have the review up soon – so stay tuned.  That’s it for the looks loves… thanks for joining me.
Have a wonderful Thursday!
