Autumn/Fall Make Up Tutorial ♡

Hello beauty lovers  ♡ 

I hope you're all enjoying the start of Autumn!


So I finally have Instagram and I honestly don't know how I have gone all this time without it?! There are sooooo many amazingly talented MUA's that I have discovered since joining the Instagram world and I love it!
One of the talented MUA's I discovered was the self taught +MakeupByAzzah who inspired me to create this Autumn/Fall make up look.












 




So lets begin....

Skin/Face
To start off you need to prep your skin with a moisturiser, once it has dried apply your primer to allow your make up to last longer and to make it look more flawless - I always prime my skin! I then applied my foundation using the Real Techniques stippling brush to get rid of any lines I then used my Beauty Blender to blend away any harsh foundation lines. I did a light contour using the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation Stick applying it to the hollows of my cheeks, along the sides of my nose and along my hairline. Then using Mac Pro Longwear Concealer  I highlighted under my eyes, between my eyebrows and lower forehead, down my nose and under my chin. Using the Real Techniques stippling brush again blend all the contour and highlight together. Then go over with a Beauty Blender  to thoroughly blend all the product together. I then applied blusher on the apples of my cheeks using the Real Techniques Blush Brush and finally to finish off my skin I applied a highlighter on my cheekbones and on the top of my cupids bow using Mac Duo Fibre 187 Brush 

Eyes 
I mainly used the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette for this look so start off by applying a natural base colour (I used Tease) all over your eyelid using the fluffy side of the brush that comes with the palette. Then apply a darker colour over the lower eyelid (I used Roach not in the palette) using an eyeshadow flat brush and gradually build the colour up until you get your desired colour. Using Snakebite blend into your crease gradually working it out to the outer corner of the eye. Using half-baked line the upper lash line and lower lash line and the tear duct for a pop of colour and to open up the eyes. To highlight underneath the eyebrows use Bootycall. Then line your upper lash line with a liquid liner. Curl your eyelashes and apply loads of mascara! If you like you can add eyeliner to your waterline however I left mine natural and just applied mascara on my lower lashes. 

Lips
I applied a lip liner all over my lips as a lipstick.

Red Lip Make Up Tutorial ♡ Get The Face ♡

Hi guys  ♡


So today I thought I would do a make up tutorial on a look I've been wearing A LOT recently.

It's a look which you can wear as both a day/night look, I personally wear this for the day but it can be a bit too much if you're not used to a red lip!

Apologies for the quality of the photos but I've taken the pictures using my iPhone :( but hopefully you can still get the gist!

SKIN:

After washing my face I start off by applying my MAC Prep and Prime Primer. I massage it all over my face and I wait for it to dry before applying my foundation. Using my MAC 190 Foundation Brush I then apply my foundation in circular motions to make my foundation look airbrushed I then dab all over my face using my Beauty Blender just to even out the foundation and to get rid of any lines. Make sure you ALWAYS blend down to your neck to avoid any foundation lines!! I tend to use my Beauty Blender to blend down to my neck.

 I then apply my concealer using the same 190 Foundation Brush I press the concealer under my eyes  in a triangular shape going along my nose - just to lighten the area under my eyes. Then use the Beauty Blender just to set the concealer.

EYES:

I always do my eyebrows as soon as I am finished with my foundation! 

So using the brush end of the eyebrow pencil first brush any excess foundation out of your eyebrows. Then with the pencil side of the eyebrow pencil using light, short, strokes brush the pencil through your eyebrows in the same direction as the hair growth. For areas that are sparse use slightly thicker strokes. 

For a natural golden/brown smokey eye I used Devotion from the MUA Palette and swept it all over my eyelid with the H&M eyeshadow brush. Make sure you don't go over your eye crease yet!
Then using Dreamy from the MUA palette lightly blend into your crease whilst blending out towards the outer corner of your eyes using the same H&M eyeshadow brush

Using Nylon lightly dust in the tear duct whilst blending up towards inner corner of the eye using Lancome Eyeshadow Brush. Using a blending brush take the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish and blend all over the crease and gently working towards the eyebrow. Whatever product you have left on your brush from Nylon gently sweep under your eyebrow to give a light shimmer and highlight.

To line your eyes use the L'oreal Super Liner and starting from the inner corner work your way to the outer corner but gradually making the line thicker as you work your way out and finish off with a slight winged look. Only line the top eyelids - No products are used on the bottom eyelids. 

Finally curl your eyelashes using the Shu Uemura curlers and hold down for 10 seconds whilst clamping lightly. Then apply three coats of the Lancome Mascara on your top set of eyelashes.




CHEEKS:

Using the MAC Warm Soul Blush sweep over the apples of your cheeks lightly blending up towards your cheekbones. 

Then take the Sleek Contour Kit and using the darker shade contour the hollows of your cheeks using MAC Contour Brush. With the left over product lightly sweep over the apples of your cheeks just to blend it all together. Then using the highlight from the Sleek Contour Kit lightly dust over your cheekbones and down the bridge of your nose using MAC 130 Brush.

LIPS:

Using the MUA Lipstick apply it all over your lips. Then use the MAC 316 Lip Brush just to line your lips using the same lipstick but making sure you do not go over your natural lip line.



There you have it, the complete look for my Red Lip Day Time Look!

I hope you like it and let me know if you guys try it out!
