Red Summer Glam


















This summer look is by my best friend Abbi. I am totally in love with these pictures and look. It is completely different from something I have ever done. It was so fun teaming up. All editing, photography, hair, and makeup credit goes to her! To start she groomed the brows and used ABH Brow Definer in "Medium Brown" to give a bolder brown than usual. She then concealed around the brow using Urban Decay concealer in the shade "Light-Neutral". For the eye she used brown shadeds from my Lorac Pro palette and "Morocco" from ABH. She did something totally different and did a red lip liner (in the shade "Perfect Red" from Too Faced) for my eyeliner then used "Morocco" again to blend the liner. Tape was used to create a precise edge and is an awesome trick to really make this look work. She then lined the lower lash line using the same colors as the lid to make an ombre effect. The top lash line was lined with black liner from Marc Jacobs. Moving onto the face- she applied Nivea Men's Post Shave Balm as a primer to start. Then for foundation she used the Nars All Day Luminous in the shade "Barcelona". (funny story, we dropped the packaging of the foundation then used a beauty blender to pick it up off the ground and apply it to my face because no makeup can go to waste, especially not Nars!!) She then concealed under the eyes and in the T-Zone with her Urban Decay concealer in the shade "Light-Neutral" She contoured my nose and cheek bones with the Wet n' Wild Contouring Duo. Of course she baked after using Cotty Airspun Loose Powder to make the contour really pop. She then highlighted using my Laura Geller highlight in "Gilded honey". Last but of course not least, she used Colour Pop's Ultra Satin Lip in the color "Cozy"!

That 5 page essay ^ pretty much sums up the look! 
Anyways I loved this look and it was so summery and fun!

70's Inspired Look

Today me and my best friend did each other's makeup for fun (cause we are 8 years old) and we both ended up falling in love with the look she did on me! Take a look!

After doing the themed makeup and we also wanted to do a 70's inspired outfit. The head scarf is Abbi's and she recently bought in store from H&M. And the shirt I got awhile ago from Pacsun.

The dark blue in the crease is from the Gwen Stefani palette from Urban Decay. The other colors are from various palettes.



She did a lot of mascara on the bottom lashes to give the clumpy 70's vibe. You can't tell in the pictures but my bottom lash line is lined with purple from Urban Decay.






I think the pink gloss is so cute and brings the whole look together! The gloss is the BareMinerals Marvelous Moxie gloss in 'Perky Peony' I am obsessed with this look and pretty much wish I could go back in time and spend a day in the 70's with this look!
