Valentines Day makeup



So Valentines Day is just around the corner! So whether your going out for a romantic meal with your partner or spending it with your friends celebrating that your all single pringles, this look is perfect for both.










I don't know about you, but when I think of Valentines Day, the colours that come to my mind are red and pink. So my blush that I normally use, I did add more than usual (obviously not too much that you look like a clown!)
I also used a couple of different eye shadow palettes. I started by using one of my Estee Lauder palette.














 I start by applying this shade, which is called 'Nude Fresco' on the crease of my eye lids, and blend it with my blending brush.



 I then I apply this colour, 'Tranquil Moon' on top of the previous colour, and..you got it..blend.



 I then move onto this beautiful Maybelline 'The blush nudes' eye shadow palette. This palette have some beautiful light eyeshadows, mostly pinks, if you want to go for a more natural look.



 I apply this colour, which sadly has no name, on the outer corner of my eye, its a bit darker than the last colours I used but if you blend it out enough it does make a much subtle, softer look.



I then also apply this colour, also, on the outer corner of my eyes, a blend it more higher, just above the crease of my eye.


I then go back to my Estee Lauder palette and add this, more purple, colour 'Berry burst' also on the outer corner of my eye, just to make the look that tad bit more darker to really make your eyes pop. Then, again, blend it, again, higher past the crease.


I then, finally, add this colour 'Ivory Slipper' on my eye lids. This will make your eyes that extra shimmery. I also use this colour as a highlighter on the bridge of my eyebrow and also in the inner corner of my eye. I finish off my applying the fist colour I used on my eyes, on the bottom of my eyes, so its quite a subtle touch. Then I use my liquid eyeliner to make a very pretty cat flick. Its hilarious when boys can't understand how we do this! I then add mascara to the top and bottom lashes.





For my lips I use this beautiful Estee Lauder lipstick. Of course I went for red! You want to leave evidence when your kissing..
If you really want to make your lips pop you can first add a lip pencil to outline your lips before applying the lipstick. I chose not to, just to show you what its like without.

And then your done!
I hope you enjoyed this look and that you try it out. 
And whatever you choose to do this Valentines Day, I hope you have a wonderful time, and spread lots of love!

S'laters!
