Blogmas Day 16 ¦ The red lip look

I love a good traditional red and gold festive look so today I thought I would show you just that. I absolutely adore this lip colour as although the pairing of the gold shadow and the red lip is traditional this lip is more on the pinky side which I think just adds a little bit of something a little different. So without further ado lets get into the look.

 

Starting off with my base for a high coverage flawless finish I always reach for Nars Sheer glow foundation, although I do find this can look a little cakey if I'm not careful it creates a beautiful flawless base. Concealer wise I went for the Catrice Camouflage cream to cover any blemishes and then the NYX HD concealer for under my eyes. For blush I kept it very neutral and used Mac Fleur power which is a beautiful peachy pink shade, bronzer was my Urban Decay Beached bronzer in Bronzed which is one of my all time favourite bronzers and I then highlighted with the MUA Undress your skin in Pink shimmer. For my brows I used the NYX Micro pencil which is a fab dupe for my favourite Smashbox brow tech matte pencil and then I set them in place with the L'Oreal brow artist plumper.

 

Moving onto my eyes first off I used the Urban Decay Eyeshadow primer potion to create a smooth and flawless base for the shadows. I then took my Naked one palette and used the shades Half baked all over my lid and then I just added a tiny bit of buck in the crease. Then to add a little extra dimension I used a tiny bit of Smog, I also used this shade on my lower lash line. Mascara wise I used this little sample of They're real which is no way near as good as the full size and I lined my eyes with the Lancôme Kohl in Noir. Finally for this look I used the Ps love... Lip liner in the shade red and topped that off with Dose of Colours Kiss of fire.

 

So that's it guys, this look isn't anything too complicated so I hope you enjoy it and do let me know if you recreate it.
