Today's Make Up: Fall Trend - Jewel-Tone Eyes & Red Lips

Wednesday greetings everyone! Hope your week is going well. I cannot complain about mine I guess, so that makes it okay. Haha.

So yesterday, I finally posted the Fall/Winter 2014-2015 Beauty Trends, check it out if you haven't already. It's just a compilation of the most popular trends this season. I wanna make your lives easier. So bookmark it or whatever so you guys will have a handy referral to the latest trends. :P

I actually couldn't wait any longer and had to try out a few trends to see how I liked it. First on the list, jewel-tone eyes and red lips. I'm not sure what it was, but I had this urge to sport bright red lips today. The orangey-red with the warm undertones, not the one with the cool undertones. I went through all of my lip products and Wild Watermelon almost immediately caught my eyes.

So on the face today are the mess below.

FACE
L'Oreal Magic Lumi Light Infusing Primer
Maybelline Dream Fresh BB 8-in-1 Beauty Balm Skin Perfecter in Light/Medium
Physicians Formula Bronze Gems Healthy Glow Bronzer
ELF Essential Blush in Shy

EYES
ELF Eyelid Primer
Maybelline Eye Studio Eyeshadow Quad in Green With Envy
Wet N Wild Mega Liner Liquid Eyeliner in Dark Brown
Covergirl Lash Blast Fusion Mascara in Very Black

LIPS
Peri Pera Peri's Tint Water in Orange Juice
Revlon Color Burst Lip Butter in Wild Watermelon

I actually incorporated another trend into today's look, which is the bare faced with the flawless glow. In order to achieve that, I mixed a pump of Magic Lumi Primer and Dream Fresh BB and applied it all over my face. The Magic Lumi will give me that glow while the BB Cream will give me a dewy finish for the natural look. To keep the natural feel going, I didn't use too dark of a bronzer to sculpt my features as I usually would. I used this light bronzer to lightly dust it all over my face to give it some color and used the gems side of the compact as a highlight. Shy is that type of blush that is so subtle, it's border line barely there. For today, it provided what little color it did that it looks almost natural.

When jewels are mentioned, I immediately think of Sapphire blue, Emerald Green and Ruby Red, of course there are different colors too like purple or yellow. For today, our jewel tone eyes will be of a green shade, Green with Envy to be exact. I think using black liquid liner will contrast the green too much, so I opt for a brown instead. I wanted to keep the green as the main focus so I didn't wing it or applied it too thickly. Then I curled my lashes and applied mascara. Easy peasy.

As for lips, I first applied an orange tint water than topped it off with an orangey-red Lip Butter. Super, duper gorgeous. 

And that is the look for today. Forgot to snap some selfies before I removed everything. I need to remember that from now on.

Thank you for dropping by for a visit and thanks a bunches for reading. Please come back soon! :)

Manicure Monday: First Day Of Fall

Happy first day of Fall everyone! Time to revamp the decorations around the house and change up the beauty trends. Time to switch over to berry, wine lips and jewel-toned nails. Time to bring out the scarves and boots. Can anyone else smell the delicious scent of Pumpkin Spice in the air? It is definitely Autumn.

I seized the opportunity to do a Fall inspired manicure. What a coincidence that the first day of fall happened on a Monday when I usually change up my manicure? Although I love pastels and bright fun shades on my nails, I am more than ready to switch up the colors. Of course, I am also the type of person who hardly follows the trend. I'll probably end up rocking a pastel shade in the middle of Winter if I feel the need to. But since today is the first day of fall and I'm kinda bored with Spring/Summer colors, I thought I'd tone it done a little.

As mentioned, today's manicure is Fall inspired. I used colors closely related to Fall such as brown, red, orange and yellow. I did not pre-plan any of this and just kinda winged it as I went. It turned out better than I thought. :P

Wet N Wild Mega Last Salon Nail Color in Wet Cement

Sephora by OPI Nail Color in IM Beauty
Sinful Colors Nail Color in Clementine
NYC Long Wearing Nail Enamel in Big Apple Red

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

I did two thin coat of Wet Cement. I really have no complaints about Wet N Wild Mega Last's formulas. I absolutely love their wide brush, makes the application so, so much easier!

After the "Wet Cement" is completely dried., haha, I used different size of dotting tools to create the dots along my nails. If you do not own any dotting tools, you can easily use toothpicks or bobby pins to create the dots. Easy as that.

Hope y'all enjoyed this simple Fall inspired manicure. I had fun creating it. Now let your creativity run wild!

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading. Please come back soon. I am almost 90% sure the Fall/Winter 2014 Beauty Trends will be up tomorrow. :)
