Step 6: Take a barbie pink lipstick and lip gloss and apply that to the lips.

Hey Guys! Intro down here again. This looks isn't to simple, but achievable. I love this look and think it's perfect for the Spring time!

Simple and Gorgeous Makeup Look



Step 1: Apply a medium shimmery toned purple all over the lid.
Step 2: Apply a orange-brown type of color very faintly to your crease.
Step 3: Apply a very shimmery medium blue color to your lower lashline.
Step 4: Apply a lot of mascara or false lashes and also apply a dark gray/lighter black to the waterline.
Step 5: Take a brown toned blush and apply that right below/on the hallows of your cheeks.
Step 6: Apply a sparkly nude gloss.

This is a very little mini-series I am doing just sharing some tips for you guys about the new year! I hope you enjoy!

Soft Smokey Eyes With Bold Nude Lips


This look is very subtle and beautiful, but the lips are pretty bold, and with NUDE!!! This is a very beautiful look and it definitely says I am new!

Step 1: Take any soft shimmering tan/brown/gray color and apply that to the lid.
Step 2: Take a sparkly black and apply that to the outer 3rd of your lid.
Step 3: Take any soft dark brown and apply that lightly to the crease. This color should be in between the gray/white and black.
Step 3: Take a light shimmery white/light gray and apply that in between your crease and your brow bone, so basically above your crease, but below your brow bone.
Step 4: Take a very light brown - coraly toned blush and apply that to the hallows of your cheeks. Take a darker colored brown if you have darker skin.
Step 5: Apply eyeliner to your water line and apply a very faint coat of mascara.
Step 6: Take a very nude matte lipgloss and apply it to the lips.


Soft and Sweet


This look is so pretty to look pretty, but very soft.

Step 1: Take a shimmery light brown eyeshadow and apply that to the lid.
Step 2: Take black eyeliner and apply that to the waterline and upper lash line. Then smudge softly to look like you put shadow in your crease.
Step 3: Apply false lashes or a lot of mascara.
Step 4: Take a light/medium shimmery pink blush and apply that to the apples of your cheeks blending backwards.
Step 4: Take a light pink lipgloss and apply that to the lips.


Dramatic Eyes


This is a great look to wear to a party and suprise people.

Step 1: Take a beautiful metallic blue eyeliner and apply it to your waterline and upper lash line. Then add a wing.
Step 2: Take an orange toned brown and apply that softly to your crease.
Step 3: Take very dramatic false lashes and apply those very precisely since the eyes are the main part of this look.
Step 4: Take a nude-pink gloss and apply that to your lips.


Subtly Subtle


Very soft and natural.

Step 1: Take a shimmery white eyeshadow and apply that to your brow bone.
Step 2: Take a soft black eyeliner and apply that to your upper lash line and waterline. Smudge softly.
Step 3: Apply false lashes for an edgy finish.
Step 4: Take a soft colored blush and apply that to the hallows of your cheeks.
Step 4: Take a nude-pink gloss and apply it to the lips.
