Hello! I have just got back from a lovely holiday in Derbyshire which, if you didn't know already, is why I couldn't give you a normal post on Wednesday like I usually do. However I am back and I am doing the 4th Makeup Look of the Week post - the 4th one already! The holidays are going way too fast for me.
This makeup look is one of my favourites because it isn't too in-your-face but it does make it look like you have tried a bit more. I would probably wear this to a special occasion like a meal out or celebrating someone's birthday.
Before going straight into the eye shadow part of the makeup look, put a little bit of powder pink blush on the apples of your cheeks and then brushing out slightly which will make you look rosier without looking too much. Also, I wouldn't use cream blush for this because I think it might look a bit too pink on your cheeks but it's up to how much colour you want on your cheeks. The blush I'm using is by Collection in the shade Trouble.
I thought I would number the shades I'm using because it is hard to describe and this is a big palette! The first shade is the light cream pink (number 1), this goes all over your eye lid. Then you brush the darker pastel pink shade (number 2) on the outer part of your lid and up into the crease with big sweeping strokes of the brush so more colour goes on. Use the brush to blend the lighter shade into the darker shade some more.
This palette I'm using is part of the PrettyPink makeup set that was from Argos (I'm not sure if they sell this exact set anymore as I got it last Christmas but there are other sets by PrettyPink), you could use any two pink shades though as long as there is a light and dark pink.
Next up is the mascara. I would use a mascara that makes your lashes look like they have more volume but it doesn't matter which one. The one I'm using for this look is the Volumising Mascara by Collection and for once it's a different one to what I've been using for all of my previous makeup looks!
The last thing to complete this look is the lipstick. It should be some sort of pink but I think that because it is meant to be quite a subtle look, I would go for a less bright shade or a pink lip gloss if you don't have a lipstick like this. The lipstick I'm using is by Natural Collection and is in the shade Rose Bud.
That's all for this weekend but I promise you that I will post during next week! Post soon xx
**I'm listening to Capital FM - Watch Me (Whip Nae Nae) by Silento just came on only a few minutes ago and I was dancing and singing along so much! It has to be one of my favourite songs at the moment, honest! If you haven't watched it (you must be living under a rock!) then go watch the video on YouTube because it is just too amazing to have not heard.**
