Makeup & Hair Look

My Makeup was inspired by this video although I used different products and instead of blue I opted for browns while sticking to the same MAC palette shown in this video.

Face
-Applied Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer w/SPF 15 to entire face
-Applied Revlon New Complexion One-Step Compact Makeup in 01 Ivory Beige under eyes, on blemishes and redness areas
-Applied Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Powder Foundation in 2 Light(Classic Ivory) all over face(excluding eyes and lips)

Blush
-Contoured under chin and inner cheeks with CoverGirl TruBlend Minerals Bronzer 435 Golden Sunrise using a Sonia K. angled contour blush brush
-Applied Physicians Formula Glow-Boosting Pressed Bronze Booster in Fair to Light on cheeks as a cheek blush and light contour for nose and forehead using the same Sonia K. angled contour blush brush

Eyes
-Primed entire eye area from lash line to brow and lower lash line with NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in 604 Milk, blend evenly with finger
-Used the MAC eyeshadow palette in Tempting using the Sonia K. eyeshadow brushes to contour and blend...
**Used Next to Nothing (cream) as the brow highlight
**Used Sharp (lime green) over eye lid and inner lower lash line
**Used Tempting(shimmer gold/brown) as a brow bone contour
**Used Dark Edge(dark brown/black) on the outer V and outer lower lash line
-Lined top outer half of upper lid with Rimmel Professional Liquid Eye Liner in 001 Ebony Black

Lashes
-Curled top lashes using the Sonia K. Pink Breast Cancer Awareness Lash Curler
-Applied 2 generous coats of Loreal Telescopic Explosion Mascara in Blackest Black
-Applied 1 coat of CoverGirl Lashblast in Very Black on top lashes and then lightly applied to bottom lashes.

Lips
-Applied Revlon Matte Lipstick in 001 Nude Attitude
-Applied Maybelline Shiny-Licious gloss in Shimmer Shell over lipstick

Hair
I did my hair according to this video(LOVE her hair tutorials!) although I feel if you have shorter hair you may not want to put your pigtails up as high(if you desire a lengthier look) or you could add hair extensions. I added a faux yellow clip-in hibiscus(I got these on EBay for cheap).
