By far this is one of my favorite makeup looks. It's so pretty and wearable. This universal-glowy makeup will look great on anyone. It's definitely something I would do on brides and for special occasions. Not only does this makeup look incredible in photographs, but it will make your skin look natural and healthy. I can't get enough of it! <3 <3

FALL PURPLE MAKEUP TUTORIAL

Monday, September 28, 2015

Are you guys ready for Fall?!:) I'm so ready for the cooler weather and for the fun Holidays coming up. Fall makeup is so fun to do as it has deep colors like this purple makeup look. I adore using purple shades on my eyes because it makes my green eyes stand out. Purple has always been a complimentary color for me. So if you have green eyes, try purple! You will love it!

Here's what I used to achieve this dark purple makeup look:

BROWS:
- "Dark Brown" Brow Wiz by Anastasia Beverly Hills to color in hairs on the brows
- Bodyography Brow Trio to fill in and shape the brows
- "Brunette" Brow Gel by Anastasia to set the brows. This product will make your brows stay put all day long! The Brunette shade also helps to lighten the color of the brows.
- "Custard" NARS Radiant Creamy concealer to clean the outside of the brows

EYES:
-"Cocoa Bear" by Makeup Geek on the crease to add depth 
-"Sangria" by Anastasia Beverly Hills on the outer parts of the lid to add color (use MAC Fix+ to wet the brush to intensify the color). Add the same shade to the lower lash area.
- "Betrayal" by Urban Decay over the middle of the lid to add dimension.
-"Fresh" by Anastasia Beverly Hills for the brow-bone

MAKEUP TUTORIAL: TURQUOISE

Thursday, September 24, 2015

I've finally come around to posting a Turquoise makeup tutorial on my blog. Since I don't usually wear many colorful looks I challenged myself to go out of my comfort zone and play with some colors. I adore the way it turned out! Here's what I used:

FACE:
-"L'Oreal Infalliable Pro Matte 12 Hour Foundation - Sun Beige" foundation to even out the skin
-"Tawny" blush by Bobbi Brown on my cheeks
-"Give Me Sun" by MAC to countour the cheeks, nose, and forehead


EYES:

-"Venezia" by Anastasia Beverly Hills on the lid to add color (use MAC Fix+ to wet the brush to intensify the color)
- "Kitten" by Stila over the color in the middle of the lid to add dimension
-"Vanilla Bean" by Makeup Geek for the brow-bone

LASHES:
- Dodo Lashes in D105. I love these fluffy 100% mink lashes. They complete the look! You can use code 'littlemissnati' for $ off here

LIPS:
-Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid lipstick in "Vamp" mixed with Anastasia "Pure Hollywood". These formulas are great to welcome the fall. The matte finish stays put all day and the applicator helps you over-line the lips perfectly for a fuller effect.









INTO FALL MAKEUP TUTORIAL

Thursday, September 17, 2015

Happy Thursday all you beautiful! I can't believe I'm saying this, but.... Fall is almost here?! This is one of my favorite times of the year because it's the beginning of some of my favorite Holidays. Not just that, but it's also time to start trying out fun new makeup ideas and colors. Here is a look I created inspired by the autumn leaves.



MAKEUP ITEMS:

EYESHADOW BASE: MAC Paint pot in "Soft Ochre", using a base before eyeshadow application will allow the makeup to last longer and help prevent creasing.

EYESHADOW: Morphe (#32) yellow eyeshadow for the crease, Anastasia Beverly Hills "Chocolate" eyeshadow to deepen the outer crease. Use a matte light eyeshadow for the brow bone. Here I am using Anastasia's "Cream" eyeshadow.  Then, I'm taking ColourPop's "Get Lucky" eyeshadow on the lid (wet brush with MAC Fix+ or a little bit of water to intensify the pigmentation), and finally adding Glitterfanatix's "Luxury Gold" glitter to add shine to the look! (gorgeous!)

FAKE LASHES: Ardell Demi Whispies

MASCARA: Tarte "Lights, Camera, Lashes". This is seriously my favorite mascara right now. I have a sample size and have been reaching for the last drop because I love it so much! The brush is tiny and gets each lash while giving it lots of volume. I like using this mascara for both top and bottom lashes.

BROWS: Using Anastasia Beverly Hill's brow wiz, I drew in some hairs to the more sparse areas of the brow. Then, I used Bodyography's Brow Trio to color in the rest of the brows. This trio is amazing because it has a neutral and a warm dark brown shade, and also a neutral light shade. You can combine them to get your perfect look. To set the brows I used Anastasia's tinted brow gel in "Brunette". Your eyebrows will NOT move after this. They will stay in place until you wash it off:)

LIPS: Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick in "Pure Hollywood"


I hope you enjoy this look guys! Thank you for all of your love and support. I will be doing more fun fall looks for you guys soon. Have an amazing weekend!:)
