DIY Ombre Lips



I've noticed that a really neat makeup trend is Ombre Lips. I've also noticed that it's a little bit too dramatic, so I decided to make my own version and show you guys how!
If you didn't already know this is what ombre lips normally look like. 


Here's What I Used!
- Palladio lip liner in Cafe
- Revlon Color burst in Creamsicle
- Qtips

1. As always start with clean lips

2. Line your lips with a red-ish color.
 I know this looks pretty silly but believe me this will work out.

3. Use a Qtip to smudge the liner towards the center of your lips.

 4. Put a very light peach-y color in the center and blend together.
And there you have it, wearable ombre lips. 

I hope you guys have success with this, let me know how it works out for you below!
Have a great day!

Quick and Easy Winged-Eyeliner

My absolute favorite thing to do with my makeup is winged eyeliner, it goes with everything, and it makes you feel sassy. Plus, once you get the hang of it, its super simple and quick. If you've never tried it or just need a little help with your technique, here's a quick and easy guide! Please excuse my wild hair.

Start with some primer all over your lid:

Draw a line toward the end of your eyebrow:

Draw a line connecting the middle of your eye and the tip of the wing to create a triangle:

Carefully fill in the triangle:

TaaDaa-- Lookin' sassy:
I look like alfalfa, woops.
For some Extra sass add a flower headband around your bun:

I hope this was helpful for everyone! Let me know any other yips you guys have below! Have a great day!

Quick and Easy Contouring

I know that when I starting using makeup the biggest mystery to me was contouring and bronzer. So, might as well help someone else out. Here's a quick and easy way to contour your face!

What did I use?


1.Start with a fresh face.



2.Put liquid foundation all over, and a little blush on your cheeks.


3.Use liquid highlighter and blend.


Use the light end to dot under-eyes and the white on your cheekbones, down your nose, and in a small triangle. Use a foundation brush to blend.

4. Dot "C"s under your cheekbone and above your eyebrows.

I used the medium shade from the cream foundation palette to do these dots.

5. Blend and TaaaaDaaa



So there it is, a quick and easy face routine. Have a wonderful rest of your day!
