I was actually thinking of doing a smokey eye with really bright lips and cheeks because I've been to London and in the summer at least they had a lot of overcast grey skies, but it pretty much always got really nice and pretty at some point during the day. I like that idea a lot still, but in the spring... It's allergy season, and sometimes it's nice to take a break from using a lot of shadows and just do very minimum eye make up.
So first off, I'm going to prime my face. I'm using the Maybeline Baby skin because I don't have any Rimmel primers, but I have heard great things about all the primers that they have and they are super affordable... So I'm sure I will try on in the not so distant future.
And then I'm going to use the Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation of corse. I really love everything about this foundation. It gives a really nice coverage, it isn't too cakey looking, and it's very longwearing. It is obviously a matte foundation, but it doesn't cling to my dry patches like a lot of mattifying foundations. I really like it. It just gives a nice flawless finish.
Then I'm going to put on my Maybeline Master Glaze Blush in the color Coral Sheen. I know Rimmel just came out with a new blush called their Stay Flushed blush that I really have been dying to get my hands on... But sadly I cannot find it ANYWHERE! I've been checking Wall Mart on line to see what stores have it and none of the regular stores I go to have it. I haven't seen it at any other drugstore and I really want to try it. It's the same liquid mousse texture of the foundation, but it's supposed to give a kind of sheer wash of color, which I like. I don't want anything too heavy since I'm still not a blush expert. This Master Glaze is a cream blush that I thought would be the most similar to the stay blushed. It's easy to apply and the color is pretty and summery. And again, I think the stay blushed has a similar color which I really want to try to compare the two. That'd be a fun blog.
I'm not going to use any eyeshadow here, but I do happen to like the Rimmel Scamdaleyes Kohl Kajal pencils... so I'm going to use a couple of those. On my upper lash line I'm going to use the shade Dark blue and on my waterline I'm going to use the shade nude. I've heard everyone talk about these on YouTube... They are seriously amazing. So creamy and when they say waterproof they are not joking! These guys are longlasting, which amazes me becaus they are still so very creamy. I've never met a long lasting pencil liner that's been that creamy. Seriously can't believe I'm just now trying these!
And for the lips I promised you bold and there is nothing quite as bold as the Rimmel Show Off lip lacquers. I have the shade aura and I've been a little scared to wear it because it is such a bold color... But it's a nice pink, it's springtime I feel like I can rock this. These have amazing color payoff and the scent is really nice too, it smells like strawberry banana. I didn't love the scent at first, but it grows on you. It's not bad but it isn't trying to hard to mask a bad scent or something that makes me suspicious. I like it a lot!
So yeah that is it. I always wanted to do a one brand tutorial, but I don't really want to go out and spend the money on something I already have in the name of just sticking to one brand. I also think it's fun to just say what I want from the brand and stuff like that... So yeah I thought that was fun. There will probably be more of these sometime in the future, so look out for that!
I also want to mention that this look is soo soo easy because there is no eyeshadow or anything like that, but it still looks like you put in some effort with the look because of the bright eyeliner and bold lip. It also brightens up your face a lot... I know this picture still makes it look like I got no sleep last night, because I really didn't get sleep last night and no amount of make up can cover it up... but it may not be quite as noticeable to everyone.
Byeeeee!
