NAKED 3 PALETTE X MAC HONEYLOVE | NEUTRAL LOOK

Inspired by rose hued neutrals and monotone products.

| EYES |

For the eyes I used MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly as a base. I then used Urban Decay primer in Sin on the center of the lid & inner corner.

I blended out the shade Limit in the crease - this will act as my transition colour as the other shades I use are all shimmer shades.

I used Trick in my inner half of the lid and liar in the outer half of the lid.

I then used Factory in my crease only going two thirds of a way in and Darkside for my outer corner.

Taking Mugshot I applied this along my lower lash line and Strange along my brow bone.

I went back in with Limit to blend everything out and used this to blend out Mugshot on the lower lash line.

I then used a white eyeliner by NYX along my waterline and tight lined with a gel pencil liner by Makeup Revolution. I created my winged liner with Soap & Glory Supercat Liner.

| LIPS |

I lined my lips with ELF Studio Lip Liner in Natural and used MAC Honeylove - it's a darker matte nude shade with a pink undertone - living for this shade RN <3

I will have a product list of every product used for this look down below!

RANT & SALVATION: THE TRICK TO APPLYING NYX SOFT MATTE LIP CREAMS

If anyone else is having a hard ass time with the Nyx Soft Matte Lip Creams then read on...

I got the Nyx Soft Matte lip cream in Buenos Aires because I saw Shaaanxo wear it and she looked like a goddess so I had to get it too obvi.. So I got it and used it and then I cried and angels cried. Because its SHIT.
I don't know I guess Shan has like amazing lips that exude its own moisture but this left my lips as dry as a hooker at church, literally first application it didn't even sit right on my lips, like left a line of colour then wouldn't apply any product on MY ACTUAL LIPS like hello what the fuck is your purpose?
So long story short it left my lips so dry and flakey, looked proper skanky and the more you applied the worse it looked.

THEN ONE DAY I UNLOCKED THE MAGICAL SECRET

I didn't want to give up because I'm obsessed with the colour so what I did was put a lipgloss on first, I used a really cheap colourtrend one that cost literally 99p but its really good so.. then I put the matte lip cream ON TOP AND IT WORKS.
Like it needs a really sticky base to work on, which is weird because it's a 'cream' so its supposed to be more moisturising but that's bullshit
It has like a velvet / kind of matte finish which is going to happen because of the lip gloss underneath but it gradually becomes more matte and it will last several hours.. I still wouldn't wear this if I'm going to have a long day.. and when you reapply still use the lipgloss underneath

Or you could just go find a new matte product of a similar colour which would be way easier but I didn't want to waste my money and throw it away haha..

Hope this helped a bunch!

 It's wavy but not like cute summer waves it's like shitty I'm gonna make you look homeless waves :)

Myself but I'm considering going to the hairdressers as being blonde can be a hassle to maintain with just box dyes or home bleach kits

Generally eyes first because I like to really let my moisturiser sink into my skin

No way haha I atleast need my eyebrows, only because I have extremely blonde eyebrows you can barely see them, I should really dye them then I probably would
