I thought my makeup today went well with my NY resolution to use more colorful makeup like I used to, and it looks a lot like a look I tried a few days ago that I loved, so I thought I'd share it briefly!
I did my face makeup and eyebrows as usual, then primed my eyes with Urban Decay's Primer Potion in Original.
Then I took a vintage UD eyeshadow in Urb (a gorgeous mid tone green with green iridescence and gold shimmer) under my lower lash line and on my lid.
I used UD's new Naked Basics palette with the eyeshadow shade Naked 2 in the crease. It's a gorgeous matte light brown that shows up decently dark on me because I'm so fair! I've been loving it for a subtle but noticeable crease color!
I blended out with another Naked Basics color, Walk of Shame, a matte pinky skin-toned color, and used that as a brow bone highlight. I used Foxy from the same palette (though it can also be found in the Naked 2) for a tear duct highlight color. It's a beigey-yellow matte neutral that is also very similar to my skin tone, but still brightens up the eye area.
For a final green pop, I used UD's 24/7 Glide-On Pencil Liner in Junkie, a GORGEOUS emerald green with gold shimmer that complemented Urb wonderfully (I even layered more Urb over the liner after smudging it out to make the green less intense), on my upper lash line.
I finished off with my holy grail Maybelline Lash Stiletto mascara, and in the picture I'm not wearing any lip product, but earlier in the day I found that Revlon's Color Burst Lip Butter in Cotton Candy (a light, glossy, wearable pink with blue undertones) complemented the look quite well!
I hope you enjoy the pictures and thanks so much for reading! Leave me feedback if you'd like!
