Autumn inspired make up :)

Hallo beauties :)

It's been some time since last update, due to lack of spare time but here we go again :3


Sweet November is here so far , all these orange leaves , lower temperature , wind and romantic atmosphere inspired me to try a make up with warm colours that matched great with the mood of this season , so i decided to share it with you !


For this make up i combined warm tones of reddish,golden and brown colours but let's get started to see exactly what i did :)


  • Eye make up


I used a medium reddish base across the whole eyelid , then applied some white eyeshadow on the inner corners and a medium/dark brown eye shadow  which was applied on the outer corners and across the upper and lower line of eyelashes :)

Right after i used a dark brown eye pencil and made the line of eyelashes ( upper and lower ) a little bolder .

The magical touch here was the glitter part ! I used some golden glitter eye shadow right next to the white one ! Next , i put on some ginger glitter eye shadow , just a little darker than the golden i used before , on the center of the eyelid just before the dark brown edge. 

BE CAREFUL with glitter , too much product will make you look like a drug queen or a xmas tree :P


Final step was blending gently all the eye-shadows using a thick brush following the white to brown direction so the result is a nice ombre :D

A layer of black mascara aaaaaaaaaand boom ! Your eye make up is done , so easy ^_^


  • Blush and lips


Blush colour will depend on your skin colour , very light skin looks super healthy with a pink blush on it , medium/olive ones work super with peach/coral colours and dark skin is super suitable for reddish/brown blushers :)



I used a super light pink blush :)



For my lips i chose one of my favorite lip-pencils ( Tommy G - Double Lip pencil No.5 - dark edge) both for lip-line and filling :)
It's waterproof , long lasting and i really love this texture for autumn-winter looks :D





  • Further styling
You can wear anything you want and makes you feel comfortable , i personally prefered a tank beige top and a black leather high-waist skirt and some loose romantic curls :) Scarfs , gloves , hats , coats and stuff are optional and depend on the weather of your region ! 

Excuse me for the bad quality of these selfies but since my camera has been stolen it's the only way to take pictures alone :) Soon i will have a new camera and better quality pictures :D
---------------------------------------------------------------



That was it :) I hope you equally liked the final result and you will give it a try :D
