Date Night Makeup ♥

Haii! Well, if we follow each other on IG, you might have seen my blue makeup from Tuesday. Well, I went ahead & made a mini tutorial/pictorial for it, since it's pretty much the style I've been wearing recently for the nights out with the Bae! Even though 99.9% of the time, we're homebodies.. it's fun to dress up & go out once in awhile. A night out screams smokey eye, doesn't it? As a fan of the smokey eye & bold colors, this look is very near to my heart. & Like all my makeup lol it's super simple to do. So in the wise words of Montel Jordan, This is how we doooo ittt!

1.) Prep: Ready your lids for the shadows! What I did is I took a dot of foundation all over my lid, set it with face powder, & then placed my usual medium flesh tone in the crease. I also added my matte white highlight (lightly). (Light Orangy Color & White from Wet N Wild I♥Matte palette)
2.) Lids: I then used this shimmery blue all over the lids & slightly blended out the edges with a fluffy brush. (Wet N Wild Blue Had Me a Hello)
3/4.) Crease: With a light hand I grabbed a matte black & mixed it with a dark brown, very lightly & placed it in the crease. I just noticed, as I was typing this, that these two steps were the same lol sorry. (Wet N Wild's Blue Had Me a Hello & brown color from Wet N Wild I♥Matte palette)
5.) Blend: Blend out the edges of the crease color & if you have to go back with the transition color to tone down the dark blending, you can do so! I did, you can see the difference in step six.
6.) Bottom: With a flat brush, I took the blue eyelid color along the whole lower lash line. (Wet N Wild Blue Had Me a Hello)
7.) Tightline: With a black pencil eyeliner, I tightlined the top & bottom of my eyes. (Wet N Wild Pencil Eyeliner in Black)
8.) Liner: I went in with a black liquid liner on top & winged it out a bit. (Wet N Wild Water Proof Liquid Liner)
9.) Mascara: I did two coats of black mascara on my top & bottom lashes. (Mabelline The Colossal)
10.) Lashes: I then took some full, soft, black falsies & applied them to the top. (KleanColor Angelic Wink Lashes in the style "Deviant Yuri")
11.) Light: I went back in with a sponge applicator & applied a white irridescent shadow to my tear duct. (Wet N Wild Blue Had Me a Hello)

Moonlit Eyes


Kiss Goodnight
MAC Dress It up Lipcreme & MAC Fashion Scoop Creemsheen Glass: Since the eye makeup is pretty bold & most girls don't want the look to be super overwhelming (I'm not one of those girls lol), especially for a date, I went for a light pink lip. A nude lip would look amazing, but I wanted to add at least a teensy bit of color on the lips.


Starry Glam Nails
LA Colors Intimate • LA Colors Black • Wet N Wild Kaleidoscope
I loveee these nails!! They're flashy but so incredibly easy to do. That's the power of glitter, right? I saw this design here & wanted to recreate it. These would be perfect for a night out of the town. They're just the perfect amount of sparkly & you don't have to worry about being absolutely perfect with the application. The three easy steps are base color (fleshy nailpolish), tips (black nailpolish, don't have to be perfectly lined) & finally the silver glitter! Which is concentrated on the center of the nail. Simple right?! I love it!

I also wanted to include some pictures of some of my beautiful, fellow makeup lovers that have recreated some of the tuts!  I was so excited that they did! & I love them & how they turned out! ♥ Thank you both ladies for posting these!!


 DuoChrome Tutorial

 Priscilla from MakeupJunkie88 was amazing enough to recreate my very first mini look. Beautiful! I do believe she perfected the look. She's just beautiful! Thanks so much, doll! You can check her out here Instagram: mujunkie88



 Galaxy Tutorial
My beautiful, fellow Valley girl Elli did an inspired look from the Galaxy Look that I did exclusively for IG. I love that she did a bright pink lip!! It's gorgeous. If I'm not mistaken, I believe she told me she was wearing "Spellbound" by Covergirl. She's stunning, you can check her out on instagram: theregoes_elli

I hope everyone's enjoying the weekend! xOxO
