Fiery Half Cut Crease Tutorial

Fiery Half Cut Crease Tutorial
Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! Today what I have for you is this beautiful warm orange, yellow, and red half cut crease with a blue and purple lash line. I wanted to do a contrasting color scheme on the lower lash line for a pop of some different colors and creativity. To achieve this look I used my BH Cosmetics "Take Me Back To Brazil" palette. This palette is mostly mattes and has some shimmery shades in it. At this point I think I have used off of the shadows in this palette and they're all pigmented and blendable. For today's look in particular I used all matte shades, except for when I cut the crease, did the brow bone and the bottom lash line shades did have some shimmer to it. The blue and purple don't have much of a sheen on the eye, but there are a few specks of sparkle.

Fiery Half Cut Crease Tutorial
Getting started with this tutorial, I did all of my face makeup first and then did the eyes, which is not what I normally do. I'm not the type to bake my under eye really, But I do leave some extra setting powder under my eyes in case of any fallout. Starting out with some eyeshadow primer and setting it with my setting powder. I then went in the bright Yellow shade with a fluffy natural fiber blending brush and blended the yellow through the crease, all the way to the inner corner and almost to the brow bone leaving space for a highlight.With the same brush I took the bright Orange and started buffing it into the Yellow in a circular motion bring it mostly into the inner corner, but not too far. I wanted to keep my eyes more open looking and didn't want to put too much color there. With the same brush again, I took the red and patted and blended it a little, just in the outer third corner of the eye, bringing it down slightly so I could connect the lower lash line shadows into the red. Using my foundation and a flat cream shadow brush, I cut the inner half of my lid and backed on the highlight shade, blending it slight back to get rid of harsh lines. On a flat tapered eyeshadow brush I went in with the Blue and ran it in the outer third of my bottom lash line. Picking up the Purple I blended it from the Blue to the inner third of the eye. Using the highlight shade that has the pink reflect, I ran it on the inner third of the bottom lash line, on the inner corner and brow bone. Finishing up the eye look, I lined my upper waterline with black to make my lashes look thicker, and I put white on the bottom waterline to open the look of my eyes. I then added my favorite mascara!

Plum Smokey Eye using Fifty Cent Eyeshadows!

Plum Smokey Eye using Fifty Cent Eyeshadows!Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! A while back when I was walking around our local Dollar General I discovered L.A. Colors had fifty cent single shadows! There weren't a lot to pick from, so I chose four shades I knew I'd get the most use out of. I chose a matte dusty mauve, a matte deep purple, a shimmery mauve color mixed with a warm brown tone, and the last one is a shimmery nude color. I'm not sure how many they actually had in store, most of the stuff was already picked over and some had been broken and thrown back on the display. They also had some mini glosses and fat liner / shadow pencils. I didn't use those today but they were decent for being so cheap. Right now I can tell you the shadows were pigmented, soft and blendable. The metallic shades were pretty decent just alone, but I did wet the lid shade for that metallic pop of color. Now lets get into the tutorial briefly!


Plum Smokey Eye using Fifty Cent Eyeshadows!
Today's tutorial is accompanied by a YouTube video again like I did a few weeks ago. I'm really liking filming and hope you're enjoying the videos as well. Starting out today's look I did all of my face makeup first and then moved onto the eyes. I primed with foundation and primer, I don't know why. I just felt like it lol, I set the lids with my setting powder for a crease free, blendable surface. This look ended up being super simple to do. I went in with the light mauve shade through the crease, placing down a munch of color to blend the dark purple into. I kept the darker purple in the outer third of my eyelid and brought it in a little further, just in the crease for depth. On the lid I took the metallic purple-ish brown and packed it all on the inner two thirds of the lid. I then decided to wet it to get more of the metallic finish! I took the shimmery nude color all in the inner corner and on my brow bone. The bottom last line is the two matte shades ombre'd out for a smooth transition, along with the shimmery nude on the lower inner corner / bottom lash line area.

I hope you loved today's tutorial and video as much as I do, it was a super easy and fun look to do. I would recommend picking up some of these shadows if you happen to come across them! Let me know if there is anything you want to see my try and test out on my channel and I'll try to make that happen!

Popfeel | Wish eyeshadow palette review and tutorial

Popfeel | Wish eyeshadow palette
Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! Today I have a combo review and tutorial for you using an eyeshadow palette from the Wish app! More specifically it’s by the brand Popfeel, which I’m not sure if it’s just on Wish or an actual brand. I know it’s one of the more popular brands for makeup on Wish and they don’t seem to be “copying” or “duping” any name brands. That’s always nice to see with a more inexpensive brand, they’re doing their own thing and not seeming to copy anyone else. At first I realized they actually sent me the wrong palette. What arrived was so tiny I couldn’t believe it. The pan sizes are very little as you’d expect. I have photos of me holding it to show how small it is, keep in mine I have child size hands lol. There is no weight listed on the packaging or the unicarton, but the unicarton has a list of ingredients. Are these real ingredients? I have no clue, but there doesn’t seem to be a ton of ingredients or harsh chemicals.

Shadows Swatched with brush & All of the colors.
Popfeel | Wish eyeshadow palette
Here you see the size of the package & the ingredients.

Swatching these shadows went well, and they seem to all have decent pigmentation which is shocking to me. The photo of them swatched on my hand, that was done with a flat shader brush and not with my fingers. Finger swatching eyeshadows can make them look more pigmented than they’ll actually be. So when doing these reviews I like to use a brush to show the real pigmentation of the products. I get very picky about it because I’ve seen people swatch an eyeshadow, then I’ve gotten the eyeshadow and been disappointed that there wasn’t any real pigmentation. I don’t want this post being super long, but I want it to be as formative as possible. Every shade in the palette is a shimmery shade. You can't do a complete eye look without substituting some crease shades. But I was able to make it all work out.


Popfeel | Wish eyeshadow palette
Starting out this makeup tutorial, I primed and set my eyelids with my foundation and setting powder. Going in with shade 1 I applied it all over the lower lid from inner to outer corner. I did have to end up wetting it to get it to have a vibrant punch. It had decent opacity alone, but i could see a little bit of patchiness. For the crease and outer third of the lid, I then went in with shade 2, softening the edges of the orange shadow. Shade 3 I took on my finger and patted out some of the line between the two lid shades to add a softer feel. Shade 4 I used to really help deepen up the outer corner for some more depth. I also took shade 4 and ran it under the outer two thirds of my lower lash line. Bringing in shade 5, i used it on the inner third of my lower lash line, buffing it into shade 4 slightly. Shade 6 is the brow bone and inner corner shade! It's a pretty simple look, I just wanted to use as many shades as I could without muddying things up.

Popfeel | Wish eyeshadow paletteThank you all so much for stopping by to check out this tutorial. I hope you liked it. I personally love how the orange on the lid makes some of the green in my eyes stand out more than normal. Overall I would reccomend this palette. It was $1.00 plus that much in shipping. The shadows ended up being buttery and pretty pigmented. Attacthed down below in the product listing I will have the link to this palette. I don't know if I will be able to find the exact seller, But i've seen a few stores selling it!

Pastel Dreams

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! Today's makeup tutorial is in video format! I hope you enjoy it and let me know if you like the idea of adding videos in with they tutorials! This night I sat down and just filmed, I don't know why or what inspired me. But I just went with it. I'm not entirely happy with the fact my camera wouldn't focus on products! I'm still really new at filming and editing, so I have to learn on my own how to take separate product shots and add them in and transitioned smoothly.



Thank you for stopping by and checking out this post. I hope you love this look. I know I do! If you have any video suggestions, let me know! I'm happy to try new looks! As always products are listed down below with all of my social media links!
