Hi Darlings, in today’s #MakeupMonday I’m going to share with you this Cranberry Smokey Eye.
I don’t really have an explanation for this look other than “I was in the mood to play with colours and I wanted to do a dramatic look”. So I turned on my audiobook and let my creativity flow.
I absolutely LOVE the way it turned out, it’s definitely more makeup than what I normally wear but I don’t mind it.
The bun is inspired by my girl Jackie Wyers latest tutorial, it’s such a pretty way to remove the hair from my face and it was so easy to do, like, if I can do it, you can do it and it looks so chic!
FACE:
- Primer: Clarins Sos Primer Blurs Imperfection in 02 Peach
- Foundation: L’Oreal Skin Paradise Tinted Water Cream in 03 Light

- Powder: Too Faced Peach Perfect Mattifying Setting Powder
- Bronzer: Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer (the one with the pan showing)

- Eyeshadow: Tati Beauty Textured Neutral Vol.1 Eyeshadow Palette I’ve used Poet Matte and Poet Sequin in the crease and lower lashline. All over the lid, I put a mix of Poet Metallic and Aura Metallic. I’ve used Aura Sequin on the browbone.
- Eyeliner: Benefit Roller Liner + Smashbox Always On Gel Liner in Fishnet to tight line + Kiko Lasting Precision Automatic Eyeliner And Khol in 01 Butter in the waterline.
- Mascara: YSL The Shock Volumizing Waterproof Mascara
LIPS:

To set it all in place I used the Mario Badescu Aloe Facial Spray.

Ah I love this look! The lip combo you’re wearing is one of my favorite nude glossy lips. 🙂 I need to give my Tati palette more love, like you do!

I love soft messy buns like this! 💜 Also, this eye look is so stunning – very glam without being over the top!

Thank you! I actually have the same messy bun on right now XD

I know you didn’t intend this, but this is a great fall look! I wish I could be as adventurous with reds and cranberries, but they kinda scare me because of my pale skin tone.
Mimi dice
I’m pretending is not a fall look 😂 I love reds even if my eyes don’t. I had to not wear makeup for a few days after this look because my eyes got really sensitive. But I think reds would be beautiful on your skin 😍
Erica dice
Oh did you get some staining? I don’t know, they scare me!
Mimi dice
No staining but my eyes were a bit puffy and the outer corners burned like crazy. It happens to me every time I use bright pinks and reds so I’m used to it
Erica dice
That sounds very unpleasant! I almost never wear bright pinks or reds so I shudder to think what would happen to my eyes!
Mimi dice
Ahhahah it’s all good 😂
Rebecca Allatt dice
Such a gorgeous look ❤️
