In the spirit of Valentine’s Day I decided to create two different makeup looks whether you are going out with your boyfriend or spending the night with your girls. These looks are very different, one is very soft and the other is going back to old Hollywood Glam. I used mainly high-street products, the only high-end products I used are Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation, Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer and the Urban Decay Naked Palette 3.
I wanted to make a ‘Holiday How To’ Video for my Youtube Channel but unfortunately I didn’t have the time to make and edit.
The first look is soft and elegant with gold and glitter tones. It’s all neutral colours with a peach toned cut crease for definition. Under the water line there is a subtle line of gold to shine through the dark black lower eyelashes. I did not use fake eyelashes, to be honest I don’t wear them at all as they tend to irritate my eyes. My face and brow routine is as normal and I added a nice peach blush to the balls of the cheeks, and a highlight to the contour areas of the face to offer a flawless finish to the skin.
The Second look is a very bold glamorous Hollywood style. This look is too much for some people, me being one of them so I tried it with a dark red and a light nude lipstick to tone it down. The eyes have a chocolate brown cut crease with a contrasting cream eye base and a drastic winged eyeliner. I played around with light contouring and bronzer for this look as I my hair is in a tight bun, defining the features of the face.
The red lip looks incredibly glamorous however I think for me personally the eye and a bold lip combination is too much, however for some people it’s within their normal routine. To show this I changed the lip colour to a light nude which is less in your face and more wearable. This also makes the eyes the main attraction of this look.
