Back To School or Back To Work – Natural Beauty ( Vivo )

It’s time for school to start back, the summer holidays are coming to an end but that doesn’t been you have to look dull. Here is a natural back to school or back to work look that is simple and quick so you can have an extra 5 minutes in bed. The best thing about this look is you only need three shades of eye shadow, you could even get away with using just two.

Natural / Bridal Make Up – Kryolan, Vivo Cosmetics & MUA ( GlossyBox July )

Hiya All,

A nice simple elegant look today, perfect for a nice dinner out, simple bridal make up or something light to wear to work (skip the sparkle if you want). I love this light beautiful look I created because its very versatile and can be altered for any occasion. You’d be able to smoke it out for a night out, keep to the neutral colours with sparkle for a wedding or keep the neutral colours for the day. In no way does neutral mean boring.

  • Loreal – Lumi Magique Foundation – N4 Pure Beige
  • Vivo Baked  Blush – Rouge Shimmer
  • Barry M Cosmetics – Translucent Powder

 

Eyes

  • Urban Decay Primer Potion
  • Urban Decay Naked Palette, Virgin, Naked, Buck
  • Vivo Eyeshadow – Mink
  • MUA Cosmetics 3-1 Contour Pen – Auburn
  • Me Me Me Cosmetics – Fat Cat Mascara
  • Kryolan Satin Powder

 

Lips

  • MUA Love Heart Lip Balm – Kiss Me
