Nina!!! I made it!!! I hope I"m not too late doing this post for you!
Attending a friend's debut party (18 yrs old) means one thing, you gals are freakin' young and naturally GORGEOUS!!! You gals can even pull off with just a blush and lipstick. But of course, if I teach you to do so, then, it's useless to even ask for my help right? LOL
Before I talk more nonsense stuff, I've finally created a look that's simple, easy to do and doesn't mask the beauty you already have. :)
The Queen of Neutrals
Do the Neutrals again!!! LOL
BUT WAIT!
In my defense, I do have falsies ok?

Nikki's Diagram Time!
Step 1:
Use any blending brush to dab on any eyeshadow color that's closest to your skin tone. In my case, I used Prestige Eyeshadow Quad in Surrey (first one from top) to highlight the brow bone and the inner corner of the eyes.

Step 2:
Choose any gold color shadow, I used the same palette from Prestige, but in your case, you can use any Gold Eyeshadow, from ELF, or MAC Amber Lights and apply the color all over your lids except the brow bone area.
Step 3:
Using the same eyeshadow brush, apply any matte dark brown eyeshadow on the lid, blend...

Apply falsies (IF DESIRED)
If you have naturally long lashes, just use mascara
In my case, I have invisible lashes so I needed the help of the
Falsies' Fairy
For the blush, I've used my Arezia Blush in Light Pink
Topped with the darker pink to create depth

you're talking like you're older.. well, you might be older than 18, but you still look young.. and even just reading your blog, you're still a kid at heart... that's one of your charms. btw i love neutrals. i rarely use very dark brown, but when i did (i think it was mac go and magnetic fields, plus some more) i got compliments. lol.. and i don't get any when i wear pinks and purples.

ReplyDeleteSab, awwww, they'll think I'm off to my 2nd childhood :)
Liz, hahaha yes, you have the power of observation for sure!!! Surprise to you! I did use a bit of P&J brow pencil (that was in the morning) lol and then for this FOTD, I topped it with MAC Coquette eyeshadow and brush it with a brow brush :)

useful article. where can you buy prestige eyeshadows? what concealer can you best recommend?
ReplyDeletei wish i knew how to put on make up during my debut hahaha
ReplyDeleteRen ren, thanks girl!
ReplyDeleteB, this is my favorite among other from Prestige :) The colors are pretty!
Makemeup, thanks
Beautytalk, welcome back!!!
Tina Elaine, I'm glad you find this useful, I buy prestige eyeshadows at the Beauty Bar. Concealer? I can't seem to pinpoint the BEST concealer as most concealers work different to different individual. I am loving my NYX Concealer, you can give MAC concealer a try too! The more inexpensive ones are good too! You must give their tester a throw down :)
YumYumSuShi, LOL I didn't even wear make-up when I was attending debut parties! LOL I am a late bloomer!
hi thank you girl! :) stay pretty! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's it, I'm off to get meself a Prestige quad eyeshadow palette :P
