Here is a late FOTD from when I was in Manchester Airport. I didn't pack all of my makeup to take away with me, so I was working with what I had~
So, if you would like to know how I got this look:
First thing's first, I applied a moisturiser to my face and then I applied a primer. I use Simple moisturiser because I have sensitive skin and I like the texture of this one. For primer, I use this NYC one. I don't rate it at all. I'm just going to use it until it runs out, I might as well get my moneys worth out of it!
I used my Rimmel London brow pencil next. I stupidly forgot to bring my Urban Decay brow box with me, but thank GOODNESS I had this pencil! It's too dark for me now that i've dyed my hair, but it's better than nothing. Once I had filled my brows in, I used Dolly Wink's Brow Mascara in Cocoa to lighten them.
For this makeup look, i'm mainly using Sleek's Matte palette, because it was what I had with me. I used a matte camel/skin tone colour all over my lid (1).
The next colour I use isn't an eye shadow. SHOCKER! It's MAC's Skin Finish~ these come in a variety of colours because it's a skin finish, so it's for your face. I put this colour over the grey, but not taking it as high as the grey colour.
I applied Collection 2000's Concealer under my eyes and anywhere else that I needed covering. Then, using a matte white I highlighted under my brow.
I used the same light matte grey shade on a pencil brush and applied this under my lash line. I then took the Skin Finish powder and applied this over the grey under my lash line.
I set everything into place with my Rimmel London Stay Matte finishing powder in Translucent. I really like this powder~ it's translucent so it's fine for all skin colours/types and it stays put pretty well too.
For an inner corner highlight, I used Virgin from the Urban Decay Naked Palette. This is my all time favourite highlighting colour~ it's just so perfect.
I used a pen eyeliner to line my eyes. I like using a pen eyeliner because I can get nice sharp lines, but I find gel liners stay put the best. Eyeliner can make such a difference in makeup~
Then, to brighten up my eyes, I used a white eyeliner on my water line~ I prefer to use a white one rather than a nude shade. That's just my preference. After that, I applies Miss Sporty Pump Up Lash Mascara.
I applied Natural Collection's Pink Cloud blush on my cheeks. I like to apply this from my hair line and blend down towards the apple of my cheek.
Once that was done, I applied one of my favourite lipsticks, Creme Cup. This was my first MAC lipstick and I've never looked back on buying it~
And we are done! I hope you enjoyed reading and got some tips and things~
