An Ombre Lip and Juicy Couture Perfume Giveaway!!

** Be sure to check below for the Juicy Couture perfume Giveaway


The ombre lip is a popular trend that's a nice way to change up your everyday lip. There are many  different colors you can us but try to stay away from browns so you wont end up looking like a Chula.

In order to get  Ombre Lips you want your main lip color to be a slightly darker color. Then a nude which will be used in the center. A lip liner would work great or you can use a lip brush like I did. I used  Maybelline Color Whisper in Mad for Magenta and Flower Beauty Nude Narcissus.



 Now it's Giveaway time!!!!!!

Everyday Makeup Look- Netrual Eye and Nude Lip


Happy Saturday Friends! I hope your having a relaxing Saturday. Today I'm showing you another make-up look which is simple and easy to do. This is a perfect everyday look, that anyone can do. What I think is most important  for an everyday makeup look is flawless glow-y skin, long lashes, and a groomed brow. If those 3 things are done then you'll put together. Of course you should do what makes you feel gorgeous, and makeup should only accentuate your beauty.

Valentine's Day Make-up Look with a Fuchsia Lip color


 Happy Valentine's Day loves! Since today is a day all about love, I'm share my Valentine's Day makeup look. When I think about Valentine's Day make-up I think of pinks or reds with flawless glow-y skin. Today I also did the makeup challenge on the Style and Beauty forum I visit, which is a Fuchsia lip. We don't have huge plans, but I always try to dress festively and incorporate the colors in my outfit and makeup. 

  Since I'm doing a brighter lip I went with a neutral eye, this is a great way to do this look for daytime. If your going out at night you could always smoke out your eyes a little more, but that's just a personal preference.










The details
 Face-
 Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Natural Beige 2.5
Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer
Maybelline DreamLumi in Radiant
Rimmel Natural Bronzer in Sun Light

Eyes-
Elf Brow Kit in Medium
Mac Paint Pot in Soft Ochre
All of the eyeshadows are from the Sonia Kashuk Perfectly Neutral eye palette
Rimmel Extra Super Lash Mascara

Lips-
Wet and Wild Matte Hot Pink
MAC Rebel on top

 I used the Sonia Kashuk Limited Edition Brushes. This set cost $14.99 and is worth every penny. I highly recommend giving these brushes a try. Not only are the handles adorable, the quality is great.

DIY Make Up Tips- Using Eyeshadow as Lip Color


Using eyeshadow to create a new lip color, is just one way you can interchange make up products. Some make up artist do this trick so they save space in their kit. Make Up is a medium which can be used in a number of different ways. Using clear lip gloss, Vaseline, or chap stick along with any eyeshadow you can create your own DIY Lipstick.

I've been experimenting with differeng color using the Coastal Scents 88 Palette. This palette is available on Amazon, but you can use any palette or colors you want. Ulta and Sephora always have a wide selection of palettes and colors. I feel like when I use eyeshadow on my lips it helps the color to stay on longer and make it more opaque. I think I'm going to try to use a L'orel Infalliable Eyeshadow since they have 24hr staying power, I'm curious to see how well they last on the lip.




Here are the steps and some tips!
- Make sure the your lips are hydrated. The powder will make any dry skin appear even dryer, and that is not cute... I know from experience.
- Apply a concealer or foundation over your entire lip. This will help the color to show up and last longer.
- Use a lip brush to get a precise outline. If you don't have a lip brush you can use a clean angled brush.
- I just use my brush or finger directly in the shadow, then apply it to my lip. I think apply the clear gloss to my finger and blend the color together.
- But you could also scrape the shadow off and onto a clean surface, then mix it with the clear gloss until you achieve the desire shade.
- You can try dabbing a small amount of gloss to the center of lips to make your lips appear larger.
- Go bold! You can see what looks good on you and what doesn't, withoutthe risk wasting money.

That's exactly what I did when I saw MAC Rebel. I was intrigued my the purplish tone, but wasn't sure if it would work on me. Once I created a purplish lip color, I loved it. I've went out and got Rebel and I LOVE IT but it's just as easy to use eyeshadow to create a close dupe! Here's a side by side.
From everyday to over the top, you can create a long lasting lip color using eyeshadow you might already have. Just because it's sold as a certain product does not mean it's limited to just that!
