SUMMER MAKE UP

 Hello Everybody!

As the weather is picking up, I personally cannot be bothered to throw a full face of make up on. I have wanted such a light coverage and barely hardly any eye makeup. I have kept a reasonably strong brow, as per, but kept everything else minimal with a little lick of mascara, wash of eye-shadow and a peachy gloss.





To achieve this look I went for a light infusion foundation which was L'oreal 'Lumi Magique'. This a great thin coverage and perfect for the summer time. My shade is fairly darker, however, matches with the tan of my neck and body. I used 'All That Glitters' eyesahdow, from MAC, as this is a really nice light golden colour that does not distract from the shimmery complexion. I also used Sin, from my Naked Palette, in the center of my eye to bring even more light to the area. I then curled my eye lashes with the Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler and applied genrous coats of my Mally mascara. I used a thin amount of my MAC concealer and applied some boring corner lashes, to plump and add volume to the eye look. I finished everything off with my Lancome lipgloss

TTYS,
CLB

    1. Thank you! I was wondering whether to put up a video explaining this look in detail and how I created it but I thought maybe it was slightly too simple. I have an eyebrow routine that you can check out here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUhGov9AWUc

      I warn you, there is loud background noise.

    1. I have found that they are very similar. Considering there is such a huge price difference between both products, there is an obvious difference between the finish. Touche Eclat is more of a 'satin' finish -and the Lumi Magique is VERY dewy. I find that they both have an incredible lasting power, and I do not tend to powder them to set them either. Hope this helps xx
