For the first look I wanted to keep it soft, sweet, and natural.
Face: I used Rimmel Stay Matte mousse for my foundation, and Dark Heart Designs Scarlet Starlet Blush.
Eyes:I first primed my eyes using too faced shadow insurance, and then began with the lids. I used Dark Heart Designs e/s in St. Valentine all over the lid, and then I softly blended Dark Heart Designs e/s in Heartkiller from the center of my crease outwards. My eyelashes are tinted, so I just curled my lashes and left them in their natural state.
Lips: I applied Urban Decay Lip Love gloss in Drizzle for just a touch of shine.
Now for the night makeup, I really wanted to accentuate my crease, smoke it out a bit, and make it sexy. You can't do sexy eyes without a wicked cat eye, so I added that a few other things to amp up the look.
When I was doing this I kept telling myself I just wanted my eyes to go POW!! So, I guess I did a pretty good job. I know there is a rule where it says if you do a lot to your eyes you should tone down the lips, but this is makeup honey, go on with your misbehaving!
Face: Since I already had my foundation on, I added a touch more blush, and a bunch more highlighter to my face. I used Dark Heart Designs Scarlet Starlet for the cheeks, and EM Michelle Phan's Chiaroscuro contour stick/highlighter for the highlight on the bridge of the nose, cupids bow, inner corner of eyes, and brow bone.
Eyes: I used the Kat Von D Poetica Palette e/s in Wonderland in the crease to darken it up and stick with the purple and pink theme. I then used my Jessies Girl liquid liner and gave myself a wicked wing (which I screwed up, and ran with!). For the lower lash line, I lined my inner rim with kat von d puro amor (black) eyeliner, and tightlined my eyes as well. I then used EM Michelle Phan's waterliner in amethyst to line my lower lash line, and used the built in smudger to smudge it out a bit. I then applied Kat Von D's Para Amor mascara to my lashes.
Lips: I applied Kat Von D's Foiled love lipstick in FTW
It seems like a lot of work, but I was able to do the first look in about 5 minutes, and the second one took about 10 (because I suck at using liquid liner lol). From day to night in 15 minutes flat, is pretty much a beauty miracle. I would totally rock this look out to dinner, a concert, bar, party, wherever -I'm there.
