Face of the Day!

Hello again,






I opted for a softer look today just because I wanted to keep the light airy feel of the dress to carry all the way through my look.

I started with my basic routine: BB cream and eye primer. Then I grabbed one of my Hello Kitty palettes, Memoirs of a Kitty. I used the lightest shade to highlight my brow bone and the inner corner of my eye, the I put the next darkest on my lids. There's a gold/beige shade in the palette which I ran through my crease and finally I took the dark brown shade and just barely touched it to the outer corner of my eye just to add dimension and interest. I did a thin line of liquid eyeliner and finished with mascara. Then I took the more orangy blush from the palette and swept it from my cheekbones up to my temples, and I finished off the look with Benefit's Benetint lip stain for a light touch of colour.

And that's all I've done. It took me about 5 minutes to do, it's not very time consuming, especially because I only used one brush, a fluffy blending brush, for the whole eye make-up. Not having to switch tools every time really saves time.

I hope you like it!

Lots of love,
~Alex
