Makeup Look

 So I created this look last week and put it up on Instagram and facebook.  I really liked it and I feel like it can be used for Summer or Fall.  So I am going to walk you through how I created this look and what products I used.  Next time I do a look I will be filming it for you tube :) YAY you guys will get a better idea on how to do it.

So first thing after my shower I moisturize my skin with Mario Badescu A.H.A & Ceramide Moisturizer I love it.  Makes my skin feel nice and doesn't leave it feeling like there is a bunch of product on my face.

Next I apply my eye primer.  Its a brand that came in my kit when I took my class at

For this look I used my Sedona Lace Palette.  The 168 pro full color second edition

I started with a light off white for all over the eye area.  I then took a bronze color in a lighter shade and put it all over the lid.  I blended out with a tan color and then took a purple (it was bright but you can't tell in the picture) to work in the outer corner.

I used maybelline gel liner

to do the winged liner on top.  I then used a dark brown liner for the bottom liner right on the water line.

I applied red cherry lashes #43 with DUO lash adhesive.  I buy my lashes and glue here.....

Then I filled in my brows with some powder (also from my kit) I don't have a name for it but I used an angle brush and powder.

I then used my CG tru blend foundation and my real techniques face expert brush and applied my foundation.

Next I used my NYX concealer and brightened the under eye area.

Set with some translucent powder and applied a neutral-peach blush on the cheeks.

I finished the look with a lipstick I recently purchases CG lipstick 415 in Siren

False lashes

Do you wear false lashes?

I have recently grown a love for them.  I don't wear them everyday but just for fun sometimes I put them on.  I don't have any glamorous events to attend but it can still be fun to pop on some false lashes for a more dramatic look.

I am really loving red cherry lashes #43.  They look natural but give your eyes more of a pop.  I purchase my lashes for myself and for my kit at madamemadeline.com.  The prices are incredible and every time I order I get a free pair and 5-10% off.  It's an incredible deal.  I also love how fast they arrive.  My stuff gets shipped to an APO address and sometimes it can take quite awhile but my orders from madamemadeline.com arrive very quickly.  I have also purchased some Ardell lashes #117 from the PX and I like those as well.

When applying the lashes make sure you have a pair of tweezers and some good lash glue.  I use duo lash glue.  It's white but dries clear.  Use the tweezers to really get the strip of lashes close to your lash line.  Also if it's a complete mess the first few tries don't give up.  I have been in the hair and makeup industry 7 years so you would think this would be super simple...um...no!!!! I had the glue all over the place the first couple of times.  The more I do it, the easier it gets.  They go on so well now.  You just get the hang of it eventually and you learn not too much glue but not too little either.

So please share a photo on my fb page of your beautiful lashes!  Any questions??? comment on here or email me at jshairandmakeup@gmail.com
