FOTD | Teal Spring Makeup

It finally feels like spring time here in Michigan! I'm super excited to do some spring makeup looks and pay around with some fun colors. If you saw my colourpop haul a few days ago, then you know I orders two teal shadows and I said I was going to do a FOTD post using them! Teal is very out of my comfort zone, but I was really excited to use these two shades because they are absolutely stunning. 

This is also a look inspired by one that Hailie Barber did on her YouTube channel. I ordered these teal shadows and honestly wasn't sure what I was going to do with them. When I saw she posted a tutorial for an eye look with a pop of teal using the same shadow I got, I was super excited and knew I had to re created the look she did!

Face Makeup 

Elf Acne Solutions foundation, Mac Pro Longwear Concealer, Rimmel Stay Matte Powder, Elf Contour Palette, Kat Von D shade and light blush duo in Mickey and Mallory, Coloupop Wisp Highlighter.

Eye Makeup 

I wanted to use some warm brown shades in my crease. I chose to use the Too Faced Semi Sweet palette for the peanut butter shade. 

I started by using Mac Painterly Paint Pot to primer my eye lids. Then I went in with shadows from the semi sweet palette. I used Mousse as my transition shade. Then I used Peanut Butter and buffed it out into my crease and outer corner. I used Puddin' very lightly in my crease to darker it up a bit. 

I next went in with the Coloupop shadows. I placed Flower Shop all over my lid. I used Alchemy in my inner comers, and Belladonna Lily all along my lower lash line. 

I totally forgot to take a photo of my liners and mascara, but I used my usual Maybelline line stiletto, Stila smudge stick black liner, and covegirl super sizer mascara.  

I was really happy with the way this came out. I totally wish I would have filmed a tutorial on this look instead of just taking photos! 

Do you have any fun shadow colors you like to wear in spring time? 

*I'm planning on reviewing one of the products I showed in my 'currently testing' post on Friday! Which would you guys like to see? I either want to do the Elf Acne Solutions Foundation, Elf Illuminating Eye Cream, or the Wen Ultra Nourshing Oil. Let me know what you guys think!*

Spring Eye Look | Too Faced à la mode palette

Hello!! 

Last week my awesome friend Becky sent me a package in the mail of a ton of makeup goodies (post coming soon!!) and in the package was the Too Faced à la mode palette. I was so excited because it's such a gorgeous palette and the colors in it are so fun for spring/summer!

 I'm starting to play around with color more and break out of my neutral shell so I'm going to share an eye look I created with this palette! 

I used the 2nd color on the top row called Cannes in my crease and blended it up to my brow bone. I used the 2nd color in the 2nd row called Jardin on the inner half of my lid, and the color underneath it on the bottom row called Monaco on the outter half of my lid and a little in the crease. I used the last color on the booth called De La Mer along my lower lash line. 

I'm so in love with the palette and can't believe how gorgeous it is! I knew right away I wanted to use the hot pink color and use it to make some spring and summer eye looks!

I hope you guys enjoyed this makeup look and thanks for reading!!

Spring Makeup Essentials

Happy first day of spring! Winter is officially over and I'm sure I'm not that only one who is glad about that!

Today I'm going to share some of my makeup items that remind me of spring time! When I think of spring, I think of bright and pastel colors, flowers, pink, yellows, lilac, etc. 

For eyeshadows I picked the Maybelline Brights Palette because of all the bright colors. It reminds me of spring time! I haven't had a chance to play with this one too much, but look out for some spring makeup looks from me using this soon! I also included the little pixi eyshadow duo that came in my ipsy bag. The packaging is so cute and the mint green color of it is so springy too!

Sticking with the eyes category, here's two eye pencils that are good colors for spring. The first one is the Jordana liquid eyeliner pencil in the color Aqua Stone. This color of beautiful and so fun to wear on the lower lash line. Next is a Hello Kitty Shadow stick from Sephora in the color Cream Puff. I love the lilac color for spring and this makes a great eyeshadow base for purples. Plus it's hello kitty. I love hello kitty. 

Next is a Tarte lipstick in the shade Plummy Rose. I mainly picked this because of the packaging lol! It's flower detail is so pretty, and this is a good lipstick shade that you can wear year around. 

Last I'm going to talk about cheek products.

The top left is a Milani Rose Powder Blush in the color Flora Passion. How perfect is this blush for spring? It's flower detailing is so pretty and Milani blushes are one of my favorites from the drugstore. 

Next to it (top right) is the Nars Blush in New Order. This blush is so gorgeous, it's a light purple shade and this post wouldn't be complete unless I included a Nars blush because they are my favorite. You can see I hit pan on this so it's well loved. You wouldn't think a purple sparkly blush would look good but I promise it's not as scary as it looks!

The first on the bottom is the Stila Shimmer Duo in Kitten. I picked this for my spring highlight because it's so pretty and subtle if your not ready for that intense glow that we usually go for in the summer time. The pink side in my favorite and this can be used for an eyeshadow duo as well!

Last on the bottom right is the Physicans Formula Argan Wear Blush in Natural. I've already talked and raved about this so much on my blog, but I had to include in because it's a perfect spring color!

What are your Spring Makeup Essentials? Let me know in the comments!!

Also I'm going to have a new post series starting this Sunday so be excited!!
