Colorful June Day 22

Hey everyone! Today I tackled a color that I have always been wary of: bright red. As it turns out, when you've been wearing fuchsia lips around town, red no longer seems like a threat. In fact, red is starting to feel like a down to earth natural color! I had college orientation today so I didn't want to look too crazy!

I used Wet N Wild berry red lip liner and topped it with a Revlon Lip Butter in Candy Apple. Very fun!

Let me know what you think!

Colorful June Days 16-21

I keep saying that I am going to make more of an effort to post every day, then I don't! Anyways, here are the past six days of Colorful June.

 

On day 16 I used the Lancôme color design quad in Pretty Pretty for my look. The palette features a very pretty shimmery pink color that looks amazing when used with a light hand! It looked nice and it was appropriate for my sister's graduation!

On day 17 I went to a MAC pro class with the theme Fashion Forward. We learned some new tricks and one of them was how to do a perfect winged eye. I made it pretty intense, but as you can see, when my eye is open it is barely noticeable. I paired it with a bright pink lip.

On day 18 I wore two bright green shades with a brown in the crease. I also wore my new MAC lipstick in Viva Glam V, a color that is said to be flattering on everyone. The major difference here is that I wore false lashes for the very first time. What do you guys think?

On day 19 I wore a pretty neutral eye look with a Revlon Moon Drops lipstick for my bright lip.

On day 20 I wore a turquoise look from a Wet N Wild palette. I also paired it with a winged liner and my Viva Glam V lipstick. It was very fun!

Today I only got one picture. I was outside filming a video and I accidentally took this. The only make up I'm wearing is a Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Color in Lovesick, liner, and falsies. As you can see, I'm wearing a pretty funky headband. That came from my last birchbox! The reason I don't have any other pictures is that it was about 97 out. My mom came home while I was filming and we installed some air conditioners. By the time we were done, we were so overheated that we went swimming and then no more make-up.

Thanks for reading! Let me know what you think!

Colorful June Days 11-15

Sorry guys, this is going to be a long post! I've been slacking on posting lately and I plan to change this!

On day 11 I did a turquoise look with the Urban Decay 15th anniversary palette. I managed to make my lashes blue with my Urban Decay shadow pencil in electric. It was pretty fun!

On day 12 I did something I usually never would do. I used five colors from the Urban Decay 15th anniversary palette. Unfortunately the camera didn't pick up the vivid pink I used on my lids, but I assure you, it was bright! The funny thing is, when I open my eyes all the way you can't see my lids!

On day 13 I used the NYX butt naked palette and my Revlon lip butter in Lollipop. It was pretty fun!

On day 14 I started off with thick liner on my top lid and my MAC Sail La Vie lipstick (the bright orange one) on my lips. I then bought a Clinique Chubby stick in Pudgy Peony and proceeded to wear that for the rest of the day. Sorry about the lighting!

Today I did something way out of my comfort zone. I never ever ever wear blue eyeshadow, but that's exactly what I did! I even wore it to work! I used the Duwop Blue Eyes palette for this. When I bought this palette I didn't realize that it was cream eyeshadow. It's pretty difficult to work with, but I think I did ok.

Colorful June Days 9 & 10

Hi everybody! Here are my pics for this weekend!

Yesterday I went sailing all day. I got a little sunburned despite using copious amounts of sunscreen oh well. I also swam quite a bit as we were frequently becalmed. The water was frigid but I'm a fish so it doesn't matter to me! My hair was pretty wavy and wind blown when we got back on land!

 

Aside from the obvious sunburn, I used the DuWop Green Eyes palette for my eye look and I used a Body Shop Delipcious lipstick on my lips. Some of the flush was also from drinking wine on the boat. If I have the tiniest bit of alcohol I turn bright red!

Today I worked all day, then got dinner with my boyfriend (it was our unofficial two year anniversary!), and then I hung out with my best friend, Rebecca. I didn't really feel like doing anything with my face because of my sunburn, so I went virtually make-up less except for my lips.

 

On my lips I put the Revlon Lip Butter in Lollipop. It is a fun bright color that is perfect for summer! Holy freckles!

Colorful June days 5-8

I've been really bad about posting and I'm sorry. My only excuse is that I've been getting up early for work and kind of skimping on makeup, then forgetting to post later. Hopefully this will sort of make up for it.

Here are a few of the looks I have done the past couple days:

The color didn't show up perfectly with this picture, but I did this look with the Urban Decay 15th anniversary palette.

 

This look will be featured soon in a $20 make-up video. It's not my best, but I was only allowed to use $20 worth of stuff! All the products used were Wet N Wild. I also didn't use a proper mirror for most of application.

 

Finally this is what I wore today. It was a covergirl palette with neon green, pink, and white that my friend Becca and I found on sale for $1.29. The pigmentation is really bad and the amount of color shown is after layering the colors over and over. As a colorful look it's hardly noticeable!

Stay tuned for more tomorrow. I promise I will post something fun!

Colorful June Day 4

 

Hey everyone! Please excuse my cheek, am ultra red today! Today I was lazy so I didn't wear make up for most of the day. I put this on pretty much just for this post.

I used my stila smudge pot in cobalt clutch to line my eyes and then I added extra wings with urban decay shadow pencil in electric. I then used Matisse lipstick in Ecstasy. This look is really fun but can also be casual.

Colorful June Day 3

Hey everyone! So my look today was originally pink and purple eyeshadow with coral lipstick. I still have the pink and purple eyeshadow on, but I ended up dramatically changing my lips.

It's hard to see in the picture, but on my lids I have expensive pink and in my crease I have trax from MAC. Fun fact, those were my first MAC shades EVER.

So what ended up happening is that I went to MAC for the launch of the Hey Sailor collection. I don't know if you guys are aware of this, but when MAC launches large collections they give people free makeovers to promote the products. I ended up buying three lip products from the line, two of which I ended up wearing all day!

Let me know what you think!

Colorful June Day 2

Hey everyone! So today was an exciting day for me, I graduated! In honor of the occasion, I wore tangerine lips! The color in the picture is a little toned down but I promise you in person they were bright!

 

There is the top half of the dress I wore. I thought I would share it with you all since I am now the proud recipient of an Associates Degree. I have tons of college left, but today was pretty exciting!

On my lips I wore Sephora + Pantone Tangerine Tango lipstick with Revlon color burst lipgloss in Papaya over it. On my eyes I wore some pretty neutral shades from the Balm Nude 'Tude palette. My cheeks are naturally like that, even through my foundation...

Anyways, if you have any comments or questions don't hesitate to leave them below!

Colorful June Day 1

My dear best friend Rebecca likes to tease me about how I only wear neutral colors. I told her that I purchased the Urban Decay 15th anniversary palette via Sephora.com yesterday and after I described it to her, she said "Your most used colors will be the light neutrals. Calling it now." I was immediately infused with a burning desire to prove her wrong, that's how Colorful June was born.

I pledge to wear either colorful eyes or crazy colorful lips every day of June. I will post a couple pictures every day to show what I'm wearing!

 

Today I used three single eyeshadows to complete my eye look. All over the lid and up onto the brow bone is the LOreal infallible eyeshadow in Iced Latte. This gives the look more glow. I blended Urban Decay Shattered Eye shadow into Iced Latte. That toned down the teal color of shattered while still giving me a lot of color. In the crease I blended The Body Shop's matte eye shadow in the shade 20 which is a dark grey. The look I ended up with is both colorful and suited for every day wear!

If you want to do colorful looks for June, just send me pictures or a link to your post! I want to see what you come up with! Also if you want to see me use anything specific let me know!
