Luminous Skin

Spring and Summer call for luminous, bright, youthful, dewy skin.

I used this Sephora Spring Trend Report as inspiration for my glowing skin.




Great looking skin starts with a great skin care routine. I use amazing products everyday to maintain a healthy, youthful vibrance. I will do a video tutorial soon on my skin care routine to show you the details of how I take care of my crazy oily skin!




I wanted to put the focus on fabulous skin so for these pics I used very natural, soft eye and lip colors.




For this Luminous Skin look I used all Bare Mineral Products. Minerals have amazing light refracting abilities and can give anyone a radiant glow when used properly.

Bare Minerals Products:

Face:
Prime Time Foundation Primer
Multi-Tasking Concealer - Summer Bisque
Foundation - Medium Tan
Tinted Mineral Veil

Cheeks:
Clear Radiance
Faux Tan

Eyeshadow:
Vanilla Sugar - highlighter below brow & corner of eye
Peach Puff - All over lid
Soft Focus - Crease

Eyeliner:
Big & Bright Eyeliner - Espresso

Lashes:
Eyelash Extensions

Lips:
Buxom Lips - Amber

TIPS & TRICKS:
Mineral makeup can get messy so save your counters and put down a paper towel first!

Synthetic fiber makeup brushes are best for mineral makeup because they pick up the loose mineral powders waaaaay better then natural hair makeup brushes!

Loose minerals can be intimidating but practice makes perfect. So try & try again!

Sping Inspiration - Candy Eyes


This is a super fun Easter look!

Inspired by Sephora's Trend Report pictured below.






This Spring Time look is great on dark eyes and lighter skin.
For those of you with darker skin tones try to use a deeper shade of the colors cuz pastels used over the entire eyelid can look very ashy or harsh, the deeper tones warm it up a bit!

Face:
Too Faced Primed & Poreless
Makeup Forever Concealer
MAC Studio Fix Foundation
NARS Loose Powder

Cheeks:
NARS Blush - Deep Throat
MAC Blush - Pink Swoon

Eyes:
MAC Eye Shadow - Sweet lust (Pink applied closest to nose)
MAC Pigment - Corn flower (Blue applied on center of lid)
MAC Eye Shadow - Digit (Corner of eye)
Makeup Forever Eyeshadow - #92 (in "v" on outer corner and in crease for definition
Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner - Oil Slick (Deep grey with glitter <3 it!!!!)

Lashes:
Eyelash Extensions

Lips:
NARS Lip Pencil - Sex Machine
NARS Lip Gloss - Turkish Delight

This is a fun Sping Time look that is great for any skintone or eye color.
Just wear something blue!

These April magazine covers featuring gorgeous celebs wearing a bright blue with berry colored lips was my Spring Time inspiration!




I went for a day time look with neutral, light eyeshadow and bright bold lips.

Blue ---> Eye ---> Liner ---> Cool Tones ---> Cooler Effects


Bold Blue Eyeliner with extended wings on upper and lower lash lines




A Super Flirty Sexy Spring look for my daring GLAM GIRLS ;)




Here's a close up shot of the blue wings. See below for details on products used!




Products used on my eyes:

MAC Paint Pot - Painterly (I like this as a base it makes for fab long wear liner)

Bare Escentuals Buxom Lashliner - Blue Velvet (I am in LOVE with this new item and will do a tutorial soon because I think it can be a bit intimidating for first time users)

Sephora Eye Glitter - Opal (This is used in the center of the wings on the outer corners of the eye and inner eye corner down to lower lash line)

NARS Multiple - Copacabana (Used as a highlighter below the brow and on lid area)

Love & Beauty Mascara - Deep Blue (Got this at Forever 21 for $3.00 and I hate it my lashes normally look full and fabulous and instead they look sparse and thin. BOO.)




I can't stress enough the idea of looking BEYOND the beauty counter for your products and tools. There are amazing brushes all over for much cheaper than your department store or Sephora. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Michael's (the craft store) for pretty good quality brushes that are WAAAAYYY affordable. The Loew-Cornell brush pictured above was less than $5.00 at Michael's and it works great!
