Dusty Pink Subtle Glam Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! Today I wanted to share with you the makeup look I did for my family’s thanksgiving dinner! I’ve been sick all week so I want to cover up these dark circles and bronze up my face a little. I still ended up looking super fair and sickly, lol. These pictures were taken at the end of the day. I had the makeup on about six hours! I went for full coverage glam that still looks natural. I know that’s not exactly realistic but you know, that’s life as a woman. I was a bit more matte and washed out looking than I intended, But I was in a rush to leave and put on too much powder. Let's get to it!

I ended up using the Carli Bybel palette today for today’s look. This palette is super pigmented, blends like a dream and had all the colors I needed. I actually used one of the highlight shades as the main lid shade. To start out this look I used my favorite eyeshadow primer and set it with the matte cream shade, it has a slight yellow tone so it blends well with my natural undertones. A girl can appreciate a good nude shadow, especially with it's this buttery! In my crease, I went in with the warm light brown shade and the lighter mauve. I went in back and forth with a little bit of shadow each time. Alternating between the two, I went a little above the crease to ensure the color showed up on my hooded eyes. On the lid, I took the pale frosty pink on a wet brush and put it across my lid the inner third. For the middle color, I took the first shadow in the second row (soft gold with a pink undertone), on a wet brush and blended it across from the pale pink to the outer third. To finish off the lid, I took the darker maroon and lightly blended the line in the outer third and deepened the outer corner. Under the bottom lash line I took the two lid colors and outer corner color and mirrored them under what I did on top. That little step really brought the look together!

Thank you so much for checking out this tutorial. I hope you have a very happy thanksgiving if your in the US, or just an awesome Thursday! Please feel free to share this post and please comment down below some suggestions. I’ve been a bit slow this week on post because my hubby and daughter have been on vacation this week. It’s been good being able to spent time with them this week. Monday morning it’s back to work and school! Until next time,
Xoxo Lulu
