Holiday Series: Dramatic Chocolate & Taupe Smokey Eye Makeup Tutorial
Who said holiday makeup had to only encompass warm tones? IF the common trend of red lips with golden eye shadow just doesn’t faze you, try out this bad boy of a makeup look which features smoldering smokey eyes, with a touch of dark cherry lips ;). I truly hope you cuties enjoy, because I must say this was beyond fun to create for myself, as a ton of blending was done, but the overall style is very freeform, thus things got a bit funky, and creative (you can apply as much as you want is my point). Do be noted most of the products listed below were chosen going of the concept of one wants their makeup to LAST throughout the night, so each item mentioned contains long wearing properties, or is Lillee approved!
Do be noted, as a disclaimer, ALL products were purchased with my own money, anything stated below is MY opinion, and all photos are raw, with minor touch ups of a lighting change, sharpness enhancement or a saturation enhancement. These factors DO NOT physically change the construct of each photo, they make it so you loves can see em’ clearly! Acts of “blurring” are NEVER done. Skin, is skin. If my makeup is not up to par on the lens, then it is not something I shall introduce to you beauties, though this has never, and will be never the case. Information stated below is both cited, and from my own studies. NOTHING has been copied, everything is my ideas, or shared concepts.
To not include imagery of FALSE advertisement my skin type is dry/senstive, and any redness, or scabs happen to be hives from sadly…my nerves. With that being said, product recommendations, and your ability to relate might fluctuation, so feel free to ALWAYS ask me questions, this way you don’t end up spending money on the wrong items (for example, I use coconut oil as a base to sooth my hives, but for others this can be too oily, and NOT affective in curing one’s acne, in which I don’t have. Hives come, and go, and can sometimes last only 3 hours, so again, always ask before actually investing in products).
