If you’re like me, you’re not a big make-up guru and you like to keep it simple and natural looking. However, during holiday season there are all types of festivities going on, and let’s admit the truth - girls like to look a bit extra pretty during celebrations. It just adds a little something more to look forward to. Above you can see a makeup look for natural beauty obsessed minimalists in my interpretation. A very simple smokey eye in brown tones. Note I used brown mascara as well to keep it as monochrome as possible and a nude lip to create a really minimal look. But if you are going out at night and you want to be a bit bolder, you might want to add a dark lip as in the second picture. I chose purple (which, I think, I’m actually going to look for a darker version) because it’s not going to be as popular as the red lip, and I really like the contrast it creates with the brown eye shadow and mascara. Just carry 2 lipsticks in your purse and you can change your look in 2 seconds. I’m just all about efficiency, am I not?!
Here’s how I did the smokey eye:
1. Apply a nude eye shadow to your whole lid
2. Apply the darkest brown eye shadow you have close to your lashes and a bit under your eyes towards the corner of your eye
3. Use the second darkest brown shadow on your crease
4. Blend the eye shadow on your crease with a big brush
5. Use ivory eye shadow under your brows to highlight them
6. Apply brown mascara
I am a bit frustrated with youtube butchering the quality of the video. Have any of you also uploaded videos and the same thing happened? Do you have any suggestions?
Happy weekend, dolls!!
