Det nærmest obligatoriske, klassiske og evigt smukke julelook. Jeg bliver aldrig træt af at lave det her look. Det gør mig både glad at lave men også at have på. Det er det makeup look jeg føler mig smukkest i og jeg nyder at kysse alle dem jeg elsker og efterlade store, røde kyssemunde på dem. Jeg har lavet en step by step guide herunder på engelsk, til dig der ønsker at rocke en ægte klassiker her i julen. Den er lidt lang men man siger jo også at julen vare længe. God fornøjelse!

english: Here is the almost mandatory, classic and forever beautiful Christmas look. I never get tired of doing this look. It makes me happy both to do and to wear. It’s probably the look I feel the most beautiful wearing and I love kissing my loved ones and leaving big, red kissing lips all over them. I have made a step by step guide down below for those who wish to rock a true classic this Christmas. It’s a bit long but so is Christmas, or so i’ve heard. Enjoy!

STEP 1
SKIN

Liquid highlighter / Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here), Primer / Yves Saint Laurent (shop here), Makeup sponge / Yves Saint Laurent (shop here), True Match foundation / L’oréal Paris (shop here), Concealer / Yves Saint Laurent (shop here)

Step 1 is definitely not to be messed with or slack on! The skin is the canvas that holds the look, any makeup look! I start with a glowing base by mixing Marc Jacobs’ dewy drops with the excellent YSL primer. When massaged into the skin, I apply my True Match foundation in shade 1.5 N. Perfect for my fair complexion. Then I finish with concealer under my eyes, on the bridge of my nose and in my cupids bow.

STEP 2
BLUSH AND HIGHLIGHT
Highlighter / NYX (shop here), Blush stick / Sephora (shop here)

Step 2 is here to celebrate that glow and those rosy apple cheeks. For this look I use a very crisp highlighter in a nearly white shade. It’s almost pearly on the skin and therefore goes perfectly with the frosty weather outside. For a little warmth in the face, I use a blush stick from Sephora. It’s great to keep in your purse and can be used on both cheeks and lips!

STEP 3
EYES
Chubby stick / Clinique (shop here), Gel liner / L’oréal Paris (shop here), Liquid liner / Wet n’ Wild, Mascara / L’oréal Paris (shop here)

Step 3 is focused on the eyes. The eyes is just as much a key feature for this looks as the lips are. This winged liner and golden lid, signals serious Hollywood vibes. I start by using a beautiful gold toned chubby stick from Clinique. On top of that I use L’oréal Paris’ genius gel liner in the blackest of black. I like to draw my lines using a gel liner before I apply my liquid liner. It gives a nice base for the liquid liner to glide on top of. To finish the look I use my absolute favorite mascara, the volume million lashes in fatale! It’s the best and perfectly dramatic for this festive look.

STEP 4
LIPS
Lipliner / NYX (shop here), Lipstick / Guerlain (shop here)

Step 4 is important! It’s our red base for the lips. I always start with lipliner. I like this one from NYX. It’s creamy and comes in a lovely deep red. It’s a bit darker than the lipstick which gives a nice effect to the look. The lipstick is from the french luxury brand, Guerlain and is nothing short of amazing. The packaging is very beautiful and the color is intense. Stays on for hours. Apply it as you would any other lipstick, just be sure to “fill out” the lines from the lip liner.

STEP 5
POWDER & GLOSS
Transluscent powder / L’oréal Paris (shop here), Lip paint / L’oréal Paris (shop here)

Step 5 is the most crucial step for this look. The setting and glossing of the Christmas lips. After you have applied a generous amount of lipstick you take your transluscent powder and shower your lips. It’s totally okay that it looks like you were caught eating powdered donuts. Let it sit for a while. Really let the powder sink into the lipstick. I use the true match powder from L’oréal Paris. It’s velvet soft and easy to work with which makes it perfect for this task. Dust off your lips using a large, soft powder brush. You will now have totally matte lips and they will be completely smudge proof. Now it’s time for the finishing touch, the lip paint. Apply a generous amount on top of your matte lips and smack your lips together along the way so you get the look you want!

Now all that’s left is to smile and have a
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Mit sidste efterårs makeup look inden vi for alvor går i jule-mood. Jeg er blevet helt vild med en kirsebærfarvet læbe. En kirsebærfarvet læbe er nemlig ikke bare en rød læbe. Det er en rød læbe med kolde, næsten blå undertoner. Jeg elsker den farve fordi den giver en rigtig fin kontrast til dette ellers meget varme, gyldne look. Den fine cherry læbefarve er en udspringer af L’oréal Paris’ infallible lip liner i farven “apocalypse” som jeg har brugt igen og igen på det sidste, jeg er vild med farven. Efter at have fyldt læben ud med lip lineren ligger jeg en nude læbefarve fra Marc Jacobs oven på. Det giver den helt perfekte cherry lip. På mine øjenlåg har jeg brugt Marc Jacobs’ primer og derefter lagt den samme bronzer som jeg har brugt under mine kindben fra Vita Liberata. Nogengange er det dejligt at have et “to go” look som ikke kræver for mange produkter. God fornøjelse!

english: My last fall makeup look before we go totally nuts in Christmas tutorials! I am absolutely crazy about a cherry lip these days. A cherry lip is not just a red lip. It’s a red with a very cold undertone and sometime almost blue base. I love that color because it gives a great contrast to this otherwise very warm look. The beautiful color is from the L’oréal Paris’ infallible lip liner in “apocalypse”. I have been using it over and over this past time! I always fill in my lips with the liner and then top of the look with a nude lipstick from Marc Jacobs, it gives the perfect shade. On my eyelids I used the Marc Jacobs primer and then just swept the lid with the same bronzer from Vita Liberata that I used to define my cheekbones. Sometimes it’s nice with a look that doesn’t require too many products! Enjoy!

THAT’S HOW WE ROLL

Oh ja, lad os lige snakke om “the power of mascara” for det er i sandhed en ægte ting! Mascara er ingen joke, det kan virkelig make or break dit makeuplook. Og for rigtig mange er det en helt essentiel del af hverdagen. Som i kan se ser jeg meget anderledes ud uden mascara, mine vipper er fra naturens side hvide som sne og for at være helt ærlig føler jeg mig meget “nøgen” uden mascara. Mit “naked eye” er noget som jeg har lært at holde af over årene men mit favorit look er alligevel, nærmest alt med mascara. Derfor synes jeg også det er yderst naturligt for mig at åbne munden når et godt produkt rammer hylderne herhjemme. En piges mascara er meget personlig, vi finder ofte en vi kan lide (efter hvad der føles som flere års søgen) og så holder vi os til den. Vi ved hvordan den virker, vi ved hvor længe den holder og vi ved den er god, punktum. MEN der er en ny mascara på markedet, den nye Miss Baby Roll fra L’oréal Paris. Hvis du, som mig, elsker dine vipper lange og volumniøse så burde du prøve den. Den nye børste teknologi sikrer, at vipperne fæstnes i en perfekt kurve. Man siger endda man kan bruge den helt uden brug af vippecurler – ret fantastisk, jeg er fan! Jeg har lavet en lille mini tutorial nedenfor hvor jeg har brugt den uden at bukke vipper først! God fornøjelse!

english: Ah yes, the power of mascara, that is exactly what I am going to address today. Mascara is no joke, it can really make or break a look in my opinion. And to many people it is a very important part of life. As you can see I look totally different without mascara, my eyelashes are whiter than snow and to be honest I feel very naked without mascara. My “naked eye” is something that I have come to embrace over the years but my favorite eye look always has something to do with mascara. Therefore it is also natural for me to open my mouth when a good mascara is on the market and indeed my mouth is wide open this time! A girls mascara is very personal, often we find one we like (after what feels like years of searching) and then we stick with it. We know how it works, we know how it looks and we know it’s great and thats the end of that. BUT there is a new mascara in town, the new Miss Baby Roll from L’oréal Paris. If you, like me, like your lashes both long and voluminous – you should give it a go. The new brush technology ensures that the lashes are attached in a perfect curve so you won’t need your lash curler or any other tools to get perfect lashes. I am a big fan! You can see my try the mascara without having curled my lashes first down below – enjoy!

Hej I dejlige! Det smukke sommervejr fortjener en kommentar herfra i form af et makeup look. Mine ideer til makeup looks opstår oftest fordi jeg selv skifter min routine og derfor føler jeg har noget nyt at dele. Når det er sommer tilsættes hele min midterste ansigts region med fregner som løber fra det ene øre, hen over næsen og til det andet øre. Jeg er meget glad for mine fregner, i nogen perioder er de meget fremtræden og i andre, knap så fremtræden og derfor kan jeg godt lide at hjælpe dem lidt på vej. Så til dig der måske slet ikke får fregner, det her er også til dig! Alle steps vil blive skrevet på engelsk så alle kan følge med, god fornøjelse!

english: Hello lovelies! The wonderful sommer weather deserves a little shoutout from here in the form of a makeup look. My ideas for tutorials often appear when I change my daily makeup look and then I feel like I have something new to share with you guys. When the sun hits the sky I get a ton of freckles. Running from one ear, over the nose and to the other ear. The strength of the color in my freckles vary a lot from day to day and therefore I love to give them a helping hand sometimes. So if you don’t get any freckles at all and you want some, this is for you too! All the steps will be done in english below so everyone can follow, enjoy!

Step 1

In the summer I like to wear a very natural and almost transparent base. I mix one of my all time favorite foundations from Nimue with a great sunscreen from Kiehl’s. It’s a very light, dewy base that fits the hot days perfectly. If you only wish to wear sunscreen this one from Kiehl’s also has just a touch of color to it so you can use it to cover any uneven areas you might have. But I like to mix it, for me it gives the best result.

Here using:
Foundation / Nimue (call for retailer +45 33 32 33 22), Sunscreen / Kiehl’s (shop here)

Step 2

Let the light meet the dark! Sounds so dramatic but it’s kinda true in this scenario. To lightly conceal my under eyes I am using the YSL beauty touche éclat and to enhance my features I use the Benefit’s hoola contour stick. I love how it’s like sun on the face but shaped as a stick! I start with concealer to map out the light on my face and then I go in with the stick where I feel I need it. You know your own face best so do it as you feel fits your features. Bronze away my queens!

Here using:
Concealer / YSL beauty (shop here), Contour stick / Benefit (shop here)

Step 3

It’s it wonderful how you can buy glow? I am a huge fan of that concept – it’s pure genius. On my brow bone, the bridge of my nose and my chin I use L’oréal’s glam beige healthy glow powder and to create a killer combo I finish the skin of with a generous amount of pearly highlighter on my cheekbones. This one is from Becca.

Here using:
Glam beige healthy glow powder / L’oréal Paris (shop here), Pressed highlighter in pearl / Becca (shop here)

Step 4

Eyes, eyes and more eyes! It makes all the difference, especially for me who has blonde eyebrows and lashes. For this look I went all brown, using two L’oréal favorites of mine. The volume million lashes in brown and the Infallible eyeliner (also in brown). The reason why I choose to go all loco with the coco is because freckles will always have a brown and/or golden undertone to them and I wanted to match them with the rest of the makeup. It also creates a much softer look in the summer sun.

Mascara and Eyeliner / L’oréal Paris (shop here and here)

Step 5

I know it’s actually possible to buy “freckle sticks” in stores but I don’t see why you can’t just use something you already have in your makeup bag. I like to use my eyebrow pencils to create the extra freckles. Not just because I already have them and therefore don’t need to buy yet another product but also because I know they will match my skin tone. Because they kinda already do, I mean the color sits above my eyes. I use two different colors, first I use the liquid eyebrow tint from & other stories and make tiny dots from one ear to the other. This tint is slightly darker than my own freckles and creates a nice base. Next I take my Anastasia brow wiz pencil in taupe and I make slightly bigger dots right next to the other dots I just made. If you don’t know where to place the freckles, find a photo of someone who has freckles and notice how randomly their freckles are placed. It’s important to create a mess – a natural mess. If the freckles are too perfect it will look fake. I also tap a few on the side of my nose between my eyes because I also have freckles on my eyelids and I want them all to melt together into a non perfect but perfect mess. You know what I mean?

Here using:
Eyebrow tint / & other stories (shop here), Brow wiz / Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)

Step 6

Dab, dab, dab! For this look I like to gently dab over my new freckles when I am done drawing them. This makes them a little matte, instantly appearing more natural. Don’t over due this step though or you might just have to draw on all of the freckles again. Carefull roll the beauty blender over your nose and press on the cheeks – it helps to smile while you do it!

Here using:
Beauty blender (shop here)

Step 7

Ahh the lips, perhaps the most important! It’s kinda like putting a perfect bow on a perfect present! I choose a orangy nude’ish color for this look. I love these liquid lip cremes from Marc Jacobs beauty – such a nice finish. I am crazy about this color! I think it would be lovely on all girls, regardless of skin or hair color!

Step 8

SMILE! You look wonderful!
Thank you for tuning in.

Jeg troede altid at man kun kunne få føntørret hår med en rundbørste hos frisøren. “Der er da ingen som kan gøre det der hjemme” tænkte jeg. Men så prøvede jeg det. Nøglen til at gøre det der hjemme er ikke at gå i panik halvvejs. Det kan godt virke som en uoverskuelig process. Men fat mod! Bouncy, silke agtige lokker er lige om hjørnet hvis du bare tør springe ud i det. Efter jeg startede med at lave den her type hårstyling for ca et halvt år siden har mange spurgt mig om jeg har været ved frisøren. Men nej, det kan snildt gøres hjemmefra! Bare følg de forskellige steps nedenfor, de er skrevet på engelsk så alle kan være med.

english: I always thought that the round brush blowout was a salon thing. Nobody can do it at home was always my statement until I just went ahead and did it. The key is really just not to panic. Yes the brush will get tangled in your hair the first (and maybe the second time) you do it – but be brave! Great, silky, bouncy and beautiful hair is just around the corner. After I started doing this hairstyling about 6 months ago, people tend to ask me if I have just been at the salon. But nope, it’s all do able from your home office. Just follow the steps below, I hope you enjoy! 

Step 1

Always apply some sort of product before blowdrying (I mean ALWAYS). It’s important for the hair to have some sort of “help” when you apply heat. When I blow-dry my hair into a style I like to use a product that is specifically made to shape the hair during heat. Here I am applying the Moroccanoil Blow-dry Concentrate. Made specifically for frizzy unruly hair (like mine) making it easier to blowdry and brush through.

Step 2

I find it way easier to do my hair when I part it. It takes longer yes, but there is no time to be lazy with your hair. A great styling can last up to five days if you do it right the first time. Make it easy for yourself! I part my hair up to 8 times when I do this blow-dry routine and the end result always makes me happy I didn’t take the easy way out. If you don’t part your hair it will be less manageable.

Step 3

Ah yes, the most important step indeed. The blow-drying. First make sure to get yourself a killer brush. This is not where you want to save your money. You can have it for a very long time if you are good to it and it will make your job much easier. I use the 45mm Moroccanoil round brush made with wild boar hairs. It’s easy to use, it looks great and the ceramic center of the brush gives a 360˚ heat distribution. Genius. I always start from the roots and work my way down paying extra attention to the ends of my hair as I like that little swing at the end.

Step 4

Yes we are at that parting of the hair thing again. I always separate the dry hair from the wet hair. If you use a small plastic hair tie like this one it doesnt leave a mark your hair. Tying down your dry hair also makes it easier for you to keep on working on the wet areas.

Step 5

This step also applies if you dont have parted bangs like I do. Framing the face is key to this hairstyle. It’s what really gives that bouncy, beautiful shape to the hair. Part your front hair from the rest and brush it forward. Curl the brush up under it and onto your forehead. Don’t worry you won’t get a big curl in the middle of the face, not with this size brush. Apply heat from the root and out rolling the brush away from your face until you are satisfied.

Step 6

Let your hair loose and give it a break. Apply a styling cream with hydration if possible. The heat is tough on your hair, hand it a drink. I use the Hydrating Styling Cream from Moroccanoil starting at the roots of my hair and working my way down. I have a tendency to flyaways after a blow-dry but this cream really “calms” my hair down.

Step 7

Now this step is totally optional but I don’t think you can get enough volume so I like to tease the roots on top of my hair. Just to give that extra glam a shoutout. I use a fine teasing comb from Moroccanoil that also has a full head of wild boar hairs. Be aware though, this comb can really tease.

Step 8

For smoothing down flyaways and keeping the hair in check I use the Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray in strong. I am really not a hairspray girl I have to admit. I don’t like the stickiness, the smell or the final look of the hair. It’s always almost crunchy. But this hairspray leaves my hair smooth, soft and not on lock down. Finally!

Final look

Voila, the final look! Shake your head (and your booty) and let your hair have it’s own life. What I really love about this hairstyle is that even though it has a very “perfect” finished look, it just gets better and better during the day as it gets a little rough around the edges. I can have this hair for many days, it also looks great in a long silky ponytail. Remember to apply product during the days to smooth down or if you need a bit of a tease. I hope you liked this little step by step guide! Please find all products (with links) down below.

Here’s what you need

Som i kan se har jeg allerede lagt min foundation og lavet mine bryn, hvis disse steps er interessante for jer klik her. Til det her look skal i bruge produkterne på billedet, selvfølgelig kan man bruge nogle af de ting man allerede har i brug derhjemme men dette er ihvertfald de ting jeg har brugt. Hvert produkt kan shoppes under de forskellige steps nedenfor – god fornøjelse!

english: So as you can see I already applied foundation and done my eyebrows, if you would like to see how I do this – take a look here. For this look you will need all the products in the photo above, of course you can use whatever you have at home – but this is what I have used to achieve this Christmas look. There is links for everything underneath every step – enjoy!

Step 1

When I apply eyeshadow I like to have a white or flesh toned base so the other colors have a even colored surface to rest on. For this look, all the eyeshadows will be from the Modern Renaissance pallet by Anastasia Beverly Hills and the color I am using as my base is the flesh toned color “tempera”. I like to apply this step with my fingers cause then I can really melt it into my eyelid with the warmth from my hand to create the best possible base.

Here using:
Eyeshadow pallet / Modern Renaissance by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)

Step 2

Going into my crease with the color “buon fresco”, a warm lilac with undertones of taupe. This will be our transition color as our next step is a bit more of a bold color, we need something like “buon fresco” to compliment it but also to be our “blender”.

Here using:
Eyeshadow pallet / Modern Renaissance by Anastasia Beverly Hills, brush included (shop here)

Step 3

Our bold Christmas red “red ochre” is going to be our statement color on the lid. Here you will be happy that you blended well in step 2 as these two colors will need to come together as one. I like to use a fluffy blending brush for this, try Mac 217, it’s iconic! Use “red ochre” only on the outer corner of the eyes.

Here using:
Eyeshadow pallet / Modern Renaissance by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here), Brush / Mac 217 blending brush (shop here)

Step 4

Now to brighten up the eyes, grab the beautiful highlight color “vermeer” and place it on the center of the lid. Work your way into the corner of the eye and don’t be afraid to place a little under the corner of the eye as well. The brighter the better. Blend until you are happy with the way it looks.

Here using:
Eyeshadow pallet / Modern Renaissance by Anastasia Beverly Hills, brush included (shop here)

Step 5

I like to apply my concealer after I am done playing with my eyeshadows so I can clean up any fall outs. I am quite messy when applying makeup – am I the only one? Dot along the eyes, around the nose and if you need it – apply some to the chin.

Here using:
Concealer / Remedy pen in “wake up call” by Marc Jacobs (shop here)

Step 6

Setting my concealer with BB powder from L‘oréal Paris, I love to roughly smear out my concealer and then blending it, together with the powder, with the beauty blender. It’s kinda like fast baking!

Here using:
Powder / BB powder in “light” by L’oréal Paris (shop here)  

Step 7

This highlighter is just YUM! Use it on the top of your cheek bones and if you can’t get enough, just a little on the bridge of your nose and on your cupids bow. I only used it as shown in the photo because there is so much going on all ready and I didn’t want to over do it. But usually I am for highlighter allllll over!

Here using:
Highlighter / Creamy touch in “707” by Nilens Jord (shop here)

Step 8

Catliner is essential for a holiday look, I used a liquid liner from L’oréal Paris with just a touch of gold – it’s perfect for any party makeup. Apply mascara, and don’t worry if you make a mess, just clean it up and blend your shadow over it. Problem solved!

 Here using:
Liquid liner / Ultra precision super liner in “black gold” by L’oréal Paris (available in Matas), Mascara / Volume million lashes fatale by L’oréal Paris (shop here)

Step 9

Haha it looks like I ate a big sugar donut in the second photo, but don’t worry it’s just powder. For this look I choose a deep red with blue undertones for a colder look. I love the warm Christmas red, it’s a beautiful lip color but this colder red compliments the eyeshadow combination perfectly. I set the lipstick with the same powder I used under my eyes, if you want a mat finish just brush the powder off and voila! But if you want it more creamy look to your lips just apply another layer of lipstick after setting it with powder. Lasts for hours.

  Here using:
Lipstick / Color sensational in “divine wine 975” by Maybelline (shop here), 
Powder / BB powder in “light” by L’oréal Paris (shop here)  

Step 10

Last but not least put a smile on your face and voila! I hope you enjoyed this holiday look and that you will have fun creating your own!

Min første tutorial i laang tid, jeg følte det var på tide! Jeg elsker at lave step by step makeup guides men det er enormt tidskrævende og ofte noget jeg udsætter MEN nu skulle det være. Her er mit efterårs makeup look som jeg har glædet mig til at vise jer, der vil være links under hvert produkt billede så i kan finde produkterne direkte. Teksten er skrevet på engelsk så alle kan være med! God fornøjelse!

english: my first makeup tutorial in a long time, I felt it was time! I love doing step by step guides but it’s really time consuming and often something postpone BUT here it is. My go-to makeup look for fall and I have been so excited to share it with you! There is links under every shot so you can find the products directly. Enjoy!

Step 1
Here using: Under(cover) Perfecting Coconut Face Primer by Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here)

Start with a clean face, however you rinse or cleanse this should be done already. Prep the face by using a primer. I use the under(cover) coconut primer by Marc Jacobs beauty, it’s light, smells wonderful and really makes the foundation blend in with the skin.

Step 2
Here using: Re(marc)able Full Cover Foundation Concentrate by Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here)
Born to glow highlighter by NYX cosmetics (shop here)

The people behind Marc Jacobs beauty says that one dot of foundation should be enough to cover your whole face. I agree with that statement very much, this is very high coverage so be aware not to fill your palm and just smear it on. I always mix my foundation / CC cream / BB cream (or whatever) with just a little bit of liquid highlighter – it gives a very natural glow to the face! I love to use my hands when applying my base, this is optional of course. My shade is ivory 12.

Step 3
Here using: Sculpt and highlight face duo by NYX cosmetics (shop here)

“Two different concealers you say?” No not at all, it’s totally optional, I just like using a lighter and a darker shade to add more definition to my face. Any concealer you know and love is totally fine!

Step 4
Here using: Glow kit in sun dipped by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)

Contour and highlight, some say this is the most important step of all. I love a good contour and highlight although I am probably doing it a little differently than others. I like to use a shiny contour instead of a matte one. Others tend to do it the other way around as the mat contour will then make the highlight pop even more but I love how the two highlighters (although different shades) lift each other up and creates a shiny, dewy and beautiful finish to the face. I used “summer” for my highlight and “bronzed” for the contour.

Step 5
Here using: Brow pencil in taupe by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)
Lash genius by Anastasia Beverly Hills (shop here)

The step that makes the face! In my opinion. Before I knew how to do my brows I knew nothing at all (very dramatic by true!). I usually out draw the lines of the shape of brow I want that day and then I coat them with clear gel. The lash genius by Anastasia Beverly Hills is actually not even for the brows, it’s for your lashes, to make your mascara stay in place. But you see, I didn’t know that the first time I used it so I put it on my brows and went on with my day. I was outside and it started raining but my brows didn’t go anywhere because this baby is waterproof! Wuhu! Never wearing anything else.

Step 6
Here using: Sketch marker liquid art eyeliner in espresso by Too faced (shop here)
Always sharp waterproof kohl liner in nude by Smashbox (shop here)

I like to use a brown liquid liner for my winged eyeliner as it softens the look, especially when being very light like me it can be very harsh to wear all black. I line my waterline, for bigger and brighter eyes, with my favorite kohl liner in nude.

Step 7
Here using: Velvet noir volume mascara by Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here)

One of the best mascaras I have ever tired, by far! Easy to work with, easy to apply (and it applies a lot, which I love!).

Step 8
Here using: Eyeshadow pallet by Bobbi Brown (shop similar here)

I always apply my eyeshadow after applying my mascara because I always make a horrified mess. For this look I wanted the lids to be warm and smokey. I used the pink shade in the inner corners of my eyes and the taupe color for my crease and outer corners of my eyes. It’s subtle, everyday friendly but still add’s some sass to this otherwise classic look.

Step 9
Here using: Le Marc lip crème lipstick in sonic truth by Marc Jacobs beauty (shop here)

I have to hand it too him, the Marc guy sure makes a lot of mesmerizing nude lipsticks. Besides carrying an amazing color range, the lipstick it self is beyond yummy! It’s creamy, light textured but super pigmented, LOVE! Sonic truth which I’m wearing here, is only one of my favorites from his collection, you should also check out Slow burn (here), No angel (here) and J’ adore (here). You’re welcome.
