Ever since I posted this pic to my Twitter a few months ago I’ve been getting a ton of requests for a tutorial on this look. Normally I woulda made the video right away, but since I had done the eyes and lips before in separate tutorials I didn’t think you guys wanted to see it all again. But after the eleventy billionth request, I decided to just got ahead and make a video for the whole look anyway. And now I’m glad I did, cuz I kinda love it!

I didn’t go over my eyebrows in the video, but in case you’re wondering I went over them using an angled brush and Benefit Brow Zings in Dark.

Products Used:

Face:
Revlon Photoready Airbrush Foundation – Rich Ginger
CoverFX Powder Foundation – M70

Since I’ve been on this lip tutorials kick lately I asked you guys what color you most wanted to see for my next installment, and almost every request was for a summery, coral lip. Here is my version, perfect for a summer BBQ or a sexy date on a warm night.

This is the daytime version of the look. I love it because it’s a subtle way to be on trend even while at work.

With just a hint of gold shimmer in the center lip, the look goes from day to night in a matter of seconds!
