Holiday Mocha Makeup

Leave a comment

Happy holidays, everyone! Can you believe 2019 is almost over? Holy crap, how did time fly so fast?

I had the pleasure of collaborating with Sarah Kwak again for a holiday makeup look. Please head over to her channel to watch her collab video as well, she did a beautiful glittery eye makeup look that’s perfect for the holidays. 😉

For my makeup look, I wanted to go for something a little more festive so I added a little glittery on the lower lashline. It adds that extra ‘oomph’ and definitely will make a statement at any holiday party.

Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer
Dr. Jart+ BB Cream in 01 Light Medium
NARS Cream Concealer in Custard
Kat Von D Loose Translucent Powder
HudaBeauty Warm Brown Obsession palette

Beauty People Super Waterproof Gel Eye Liner Pencil
Benefit They’re Real! Mascara
3CE French Lilac Blush

May all of you have a wonderful, restful winter break with your family and love ones! We all deserve it. Let me know in the comments down below what you’ll be doing during the holidays.
I’ll be off to Santa Barbara with my wonderful fiancee to celebrate our ten year anniversary. 😉

Cheers!

Duochrome Blue Green Eyeshadow Tutorial

Leave a comment

Hey guys! I’ve been in LOVE with duochrome eyeshadows this month. I found a blue green loose eyeshadow by MAC recently and I knew I had to use it in a tutorial. To blend it out, I also used the Too Faced Sweet Peach palette to blend out the intensity of the MAC shade.

Hope you enjoy and you see you in the next video! 😉

Monochromatic Rose Nude Makeup

Hey guys! This is the makeup that I’ve been pretty much wearing all day, every day – whether it’s to go to work, grocery shopping, etc. You name it, and this has been my go-to makeup look. And so, subsequently I felt inspired to make a quick tutorial about it.

Em Cosmetic’s “Rose Nude” liquid lipstick has been killing me! Their lipstick just glides on and sits on the lips perfectly. Plus it smells like chocolate (yum).

Hope you enjoy watching!

Orange Lip, Cut Crease Makeup Look

Leave a comment

Bright orange lips are so fun to rock during springtime.
I sat down in front of the camera and just started to play around. Eventually I thought I would go for a more daring cut crease look. To make it more interesting though, I added a wing to the cut crease. Ugh, and the orange NYX lipstick? I’ve been in love with orange, I think it’s one of the best shades for those with a yellow undertone. I went for a muted orange lip by adding in concealer to the lips.

Here’s the video. Enjoy!

7 Day Face Mask Challenge Part 1

4 Comments

 

I think this is one of the longest videos I’ve ever done? And oh my goodness, boy did I underestimate how long it would take to edit! Oy vey, haha.

I’ve always been a fan of face masks; they’re great when giving yourself some self-love TLC, hanging out with friends, or needing a quick rejuvenation in the skin. I thought I would compare seven different masks (worn on seven different days) and give you my two cents on all of them. Heads up, most of them are from Asian brands.

Just a little background on my skin, when I was a teenager I had combination skin. My T-Zone was extremely oily and I had lots of fun squeezing zits and pimples back in the day. My cheeks were normal. Now that I’m a wee bit older, my skin has become much more dry all around. This is where the face masks especially comes in handy.

This is part 1, Days 1-4. I’ll be getting out Part 2 (Days 5-7) sometime this month (fingers crossed).

Cheers,
Alice
