I know what your thinking pastels arent for summer! but sometimes you need a little break from the holographic and neons that are associated with the summer months! If you want to know how to get this colorful look read below!!!
First this I do is moisturize my face with a moisturizer with SPF. Right now I am using Ponds Luminous moisture day lotion with spf 15. I like this because it absorbs quickly and doesnt leave my skin oily!
1.Next I started off with Revlon color stay whipped foundation in 220 nude which I applied all over my face with a beauty blender dampened with Macs Fix+. Which you can use water to slightly dampen your beauty blender I just like the extra minerals it adds to my foundation plus I love the smell.
2. I dab on my Hard Candy Glam-O-Flage in medium/light just on the blemishes I have on my chin and any dark spots on my face. I blend this out with the same beauty blender that I used with my foundation.
3. I use my real techniques buffing brush to buff in my Maybelline Dream Matter Powder in Beige all over my skin. I LOVE this brush it gives your skin a flawless air brush look! If you get one face brush get this one!
Milani Eye Shadow Primer
NYX Eye Shadow Base in 01 White
4. Prime your lid with Milani's Eyeshadow Primer wait 30 seconds! Then apply NYX eyeshadow base in white concentrating it on the lid and blending it into the crease. I use my finger for this I think it works the best with the sticky base.

Mac Beautiful Iris
Mac Creme De Violet
Mac Omega
Urban Decay Intergalactic
5. Starting with a flat shader brush sweep on Beautiful Iris on the inner 3rd of your lid.
6. Then with the same brush on the other side take Creme De Violet pack that on the middle of your lid blending it into the Beautiful Iris keeping it on the lid.
7. You can wipe off the same flat shader brush on a paper towel and use it in Intergalactic and pack that on the outer 2/3 of the lid forming a C shape.
7. Then take Omega and a fluffy blending brush and blend out the purple shades into the crease so they almost gradually disappear towards your brow bone. Omega can be replaced for a shade that matches your skin tone!
8. After my eyeshadow is looking how I want it I brush away any fall out that might have happened on my cheecks then dab on the Neutrogena Healthy Skin 3-in-1 Concealer for Eyes in 05 fair (Whoa! Long Name) under my eyes and blend out with my beauty blender.
9. Then with the Loreal Infallible The Super Slim Liner in Black I lined my eyes and did a cat eye at the end but a small one. (comment bellow if you want a tutorial on how to do winged liner!)
10. Ok. Please ignore my crazy lashes!!! I have really stubborn lashes and I have yet to find a non heated lash curler that curls them and the heated one I have apparently stopped curling them now too! :( But life goes on. I use 3 different mascaras in the summer first I curl my lashes (even though it does nothing for me) then I apply Loreals Power Volume Collagen Waterproof. You can use any water proof formula the wax in the waterproof formulas help hold the curl to you lashes. Then I curl them again with my heated wand lash curler and I apply Maybellines Falsies Big Eyes Waterproof Top Lash to my top lashes and the bottom lashes to the bottom. After that has dried for a second I add some Physicians Formula Fake Out to my top lashes for a little extra volume!
11. For a little something extra and to hide my stubborn crazy lashes I applied Miss Adoro #1 Lashes. These are ok this was the first time I had used them I like the look but I had a mishap in Target where my lash practically fell off! Im not sure if it was the lash (I use the same glue every day and hadn't had that happen) or the fact it was 96 degrees that day. Life goes on and I whipped out my Revlon Precision eye lash glue in the home goods department and put my lash back on! Crisis averted.
12. While the lashes are drying apply Stila Smudge Stick in Turquoise in the water line for that little extra pop of color.
13. I use the NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder in Auburn/Red to fill in my brows.
14. Highlight the top of your cheek bones, the center of your nose, your cupids bow, and your brow bones with The Balms Mary Lou Manizer.
15. I love a cream bronzer in the summer. So with a Large Stippling brush or a duo fiber face brush apply Sonia Kashuks Cream Bronzer in 42 rich bronze to the hallows of you cheeks your hair line and under your chin and jawline.
16. For blush I am using Sonia Kashuks Beautifying Blush in 51 Flushed which is a SCARY neon pink but on the cheeks its bright and perfect for summer.
17. Last but not least LIPS! and to keep with out pastel theme I used Macs St. Germain. This is my go too lip color! Mac amplified lip sticks are so creamy and luscious and this color can be dressed up or down!
SO here it is the final look!
