Winter Wear #7

Eye Looks I Love For Winter!!

In the winter I love wearing festive and frosty eye looks! I especially love wearing silvers! My favorite silvers are the metallic dark silver for night and a frosty blue silver for days! I also love wearing cranberry and golds! Occasionally I will venture out of my comfort zone and wear greens.

Vlog #3

Review on the ELF Endless Eyes Pro Eyeshadow Palette- Limited Edition
About a month ago I bought some products at ELF. One of the products I really wanted to try was the ELF $10, 100 eyeshadow palette. You can buy that here. I really love this eyeshadow palette. The only complaint I have is that some of the matte shadows are not very pigmented, such as the blacks. However, I am in love with the shimmers! They are so rich, creamy, and pigmented! You can create almost any look with this palette! I recommend this palette to people who are just starting out with makeup and on a budget. I really am loving this palette! I hope this helps, if you want to buy this product or are on the fence!

Fall Trends- Kate's Way 11

Majestic Makeup Look

     This makeup look is perfect for the neutral outfits and cozy cardigans of fall. I love wearing this look with my long cream colored open cardigan, jeans, and boots. This look will spice up any makeup outfit! Others will notice this eye-catching look too!

  1. Apply an eyeshadow primer with your ring finger. Be careful not to tug on your eye because that may cause premature wrinkles.
  2. Apply any gold cream eyeshadow just to the lid.
  3. Using a medium eyeshadow brush pack a light gold color to your lid.
  4. Then, apply a darker gold to your crease using a dense skinny brush.
  5. After, using a smudge brush apply a dark purple to your lower lash line.
  6. Finally, apply your favorite mascara.
  7. If need be use a fan brush to remove any fall out.

Fall Trends- Kate's Way #6

The Warm Gold Look
           
     This look is so cozy, warm, and inviting. Whenever I wear this look I feel like I am in a cozy cabin, snuggled up with a book across from a fire. This look screams fall. I wear this look so much in the fall!

1. Apply a gold Paint Pot, to the lid with ring finger, make sure to not go above the crease.
2. Next, apply a light red/orange to the inner third of your lid and below the arch of your eyebrow, using an eye shadow brush.
3.  After, apply a gold to the outer two thirds of your eye with an eye shadow brush.
4. Then, apply a burnt orange to the crease with a skinny dense brush using a wind shield wiper motion.
5. Apply a brown eyeliner. Apply a thing line of this just on the outer third of your lash line. This makes your lashes appear thicker, without looking like you have a lot of makeup on, perfect for school.
6. Finally, apply your favorite mascara.
7. If need be use a fan brush to sweep away fall out.


I hope you enjoy this look!

Fall Trends- Kate's Way #4

The Gold Mauve Look
           
     This look is perfect for fall because of its gold color. It is also feminine with the mauve. In addition, this look is great for people who are new to makeup because it does not have many steps and does not require that much product or tools. I use this look on days where I want to be lazy but still want to look put together.
 
1.      Apply a gold Paint Pot, to the lid with ring finger, make sure to not go above the crease.
2.    Next, apply a gold eye shadow to where you just applied the paint pot with an eye shadow brush. This dulls down the brassiness. However, if you like that look, then skip this step.
3.    After apply a mauve eye shadow to the crease, use windshield wiper motions and a skinny dense brush.
4.    Sweep the mauve down to the outer edge of the lower lashes.
5.     Then, pack onto lower lash line with a smudge brush.
6.    Apply favorite mascara.
7.     If need be use a fan brush to sweep away fall out.

I hope you enjoy this look!
