some Instagram inspiration makeup

IMG_7146

So aside from being busy , I’ve also been slightly uninspired as well . I did want to try doing a colorful look and I needed to get out of my shimmer and Smokey eye routine to do something a little different . Recently even when I do wear makeup out , I’ve been sticking to mostly purples , pinks , Smokey shades and multichrome liner looks . So I looked through my phone to look for some pictures that might inspire me . And I really loved the colors I found on this makeup page on IG. I’ll also post some pics of the makeup artist too so you can check out her IG page . She does some beautiful and colorful looks .

I loved all the colors , the purple , the blue , the mint, and of course the corals .Also I found these second pictures later since I wanted to find the makeup artist’s page , but now that I’m looking at her side profile , there looks to be an icy blue too , which I left out . Maybe next time I’ll try blending in the ice blue to the mint .
 Well today was a good day to pull out 6 palettes, mostly all Juvia’s Place but I do have my trusty Sugarpill shadows too.

I only used mattes for this look and Nyx jumbo liner in Milk for the base. I started with the Sugarpill Funsize with the shade 8 bit.

Of course followed by the shade Slow Dive from the Pink Capsule

I blended Iris from Afrogalactic into Slow Dive and 8 Bit , and using my white liner on the waterline , then touching up with a brush , I also applied Mars for the purple liner look .

Galaxy was used for the sunburst orange shade in inner corner area above the mint.

And for the coral in the middle of my eyes , I used Olori 3.

  • Wet N Wild Megaliner liquid liner

  • Too Faced Double Bubble mixed with Almay lip vibes in Mix it up , and Wet N Wild Cloud Pout in Candy Wasted on the lips.

Finally the eyes ! While it does look different than the inspiration picture , I was happy that I was able to use all these nice bright colors together . I do think I’ll try again and maybe use some different brushes to get the more precise angles like the makeup artist did .

Plus I got to try out a few new products on my face as well . Influenster sent me a Prada foundation to try , and I also have a Nyx Setting spray to test out too . I do plan on using both these products a few more times before I do my official reviews though.

I also need to redo my hair as well . I bleached it before Christmas, toned it with some violet conditioner . And while my roots have grown out a bit , I want to redo parts of my hair in the back that are a bit of orange-y blonde . But sadly that will have to be in a week or two or whenever I can get my wisdom teeth removed . I’m not looking forward to that lol . So for now I’ll embrace the blonde with violet .

I’m still not sure how I like the Prada foundation, I think I need to test it out and wear it a few more times before I can get an accurate review . Now the Nyx setting spray for sure is pretty good on the eyes . It’s kept my eyeshadow looking good for a while .

IMG_7380Well that’s enough pictures for today ! Let me know what you think and also how has your January been so far ? Any new makeup finds ? New games ? Let me know in the comments .
