Hey Everyone! I thought I share with you the current pics for my winter makeup products.
Cheeks:
Lately, I've been leaning towards more natural, nude looking blushes for winter. The ones I've been loving are the NYX blush in Terracotta and NYX cream blush in Tea rose. They both give a lovely glow to the skin, and pair nicely with a bold lip.
Eyes:
For a while, I had been looking for a perfect medium brown eyeshadow colour to put all over the lid and I finally found it in of the Essence quattro palette. It is the perfect brown colour for my skin tone, and the darker brown is great for adding more depth.
This Maybelline Eye studio palette in Give me Gold is highly pigmented and I alternate between the lightest champagne colour and the gold in my inner corner and use the dark brown to add sparkle on the outer corner of my lid.
I use the Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze as an eyeshadow base, but on days when I'm feeling lazy, I just use this all over my eyelid, add some eyeliner and I'm set.
For mascara, I use Maybelline The Falsies mascara (not depicted) and separate and lengthen my lashes with the L'oreal Telescopic mascara.
Lastly, for eyebrows, I use the Rimmel eye brow pencil in 004 Black.
I had heard great reviews about the Milani Eye Tech eyeliner and me being the idiot I am, ordered the wrong one; I ordered the Bold instead of the Extreme. So, now I use the Bold for lining the top of my eyes and use the Extreme to create my flick, which saves me time and I don't have to waste time with the thin felt tip repeatedly going over my eye to thicken the line. I really do like the Extreme, its very similar and in my opinion, slightly better, than my Maybelline Master Precise. I wouldn't recommend the Bold.
I highly recommend this eyelash curler from Japonesque to everyone, it works wonderfully.
Lips:
I love winter as I can embrace my inner grunge and rock the vampy lipstick. During the day, I use the Bourjois lipstick in 04 and Revlon lipstick in Fabulous Fig. Fabulous Fig is a bit dark, so I use it as a stain by blotting it with a tissue. The other few are wonderful for night time and let me tell you, the Bourjois Lipstick in 14 is so gorgeous and rich.

That's it!
