4th of July Makeup

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

So here is my makeup for today, i never wear this colors unless its for a special occasion! Most of the make up can be purchased at Sephora, but then I have my favorites from the drug store.

First is my foundation, and I use the Maybelline more than the Smashbox.
 - I apply a small amount all over the face, and yes i use my fingers. Make sure they are clean!

Then I apply my bronzer, and I use it all over my face, but not till im orange. When i put on foundation, i use the smashbox. This stuff has lasted me years because you twist it to shave off more bronzer as you need. I LOVE IT. Or just a day where im going out or something I wear the truminerals powder.

So now we move on to the eyes, sorry if i look like an alien in this pictures, i have no idea how to take good ones showing what i need to show you! My absolute favorite eye primer is the Kat Von D eye primer which is $15 at Sephora. You only need a little amount of it, just dab it onto your eye lid and then rub it around with your fingers till it covers the whole lid smoothly.

~~~~My eyelashes are really long, currently in this picture im not wearing mascara, i love it!

Now onto your eyeshadow. Today I am wearing Engagement Ring 1 from Sephora. I applied it with a random eyeshadow brush i had, and i noticed that when i cleaned it and it was a little damp, it helped the glitter really come out on the eye, so maybe spray a little water on your brush before applying.

I used a really small brush to do under the eye, here is the brushes i used.

Then i apply my eyeliner. Which will be a little harder over the eyeshadow because it will get caught on the pencil, so just wipe it off and continue till you get the line that you want. I used a Make Up Forever Aqua Eyes Pencil that one of my best friends gave me, i love it!

So then after the eyeliner I applied mascara to complete the look, and I just use the drugstore mascara because I dont believe that it is really any different than the extremely expensive that you buy in stores. The only time i use that stuff is when it is a free gift in the smaller version :)

And then this is my hair! French braid across the front of my head, I tend to wear these a lot.
