I’ve been stepping out of my comfort zone with makeup lately and have been really trying to play with color! I recently received the new Urban Decay Moondust palette and couldn’t wait to dig into it. I usually am drawn to mattes and this palette is completely shimmer but with its unique duo toned jewel-tones, I couldn’t resist! I also finally dug into my metallic liquid lipsticks which I’ve been hesitant to play with. I was never a fan of frosty or pearlized lipsticks on my complexion but Colourpop Flitter, which is a close dupe for Kylie’s Heir, was sooo gorgeous with this look. Definitely something new for me! I hope you love the tutorial.
I’ve been putting this video off until after the holidays but just my luck, my two New Years Eve tutorials I had finished to go up while I was in Europe are stuck in limbo right now :-/ it’s a long story but hopefully they will be recovered asap as they are two of my favorite tutorials I’ve done yet. sighh BUT! The good news is that I’m obsessed with this video I have for you today!! I’ll be showing you my collection of brown liquid lipsticks. I think it’s so important to see proper lip-swatches of these on someone that is close to your complexion so I hope my medium-toned babes will find this video extra helpful. When it comes to brown or nude lipsticks it’s very hard to tell how they will translate on your skin, do you remember when Anastasia released “Pure Hollywood” and everyone went nuts over it?? Well, when I finally got my hands on it, it looked like chalk on me!! Womp womp.
While you’re watching this video you might be thinking that some of these colors aren’t even close to being brown and my theory for that is… erhm my skin is brown! If I wear a shade super close to my skin color then the lippie will look nude, if there’s any pink in it it’ll look mauve and if its super cool toned then it will lean towards grey. The only shade that really truly looks brown on my complexion is (perfectly named) “True Brown K” by Miss Kylie Jenner. And to those wondering, no they are not repackaged Colourpop cosmetics liquid lipsticks. The formula is completely different but you cannot beat Colourpop’s range of colors or price point!
Sorry guys for the incomplete post! Stress levels are a little high today and I have to run but I will complete this product list in a couple hours — I just didnt want to delay posting my video for you guys any further! Enjoy!
Do overrrr!! I did a Kylie tutorial over the summer, while I still like it I wanted to do an updated video on just the lips because I think I finally got my products down! It’s hard to get that same look as hers if you’re not the same complexion as…
