So, I normally only post total glam pictures. But for this blog post, and maybe the next 1 or 2, I decided to hang up my false eyelashes. I also decided to go very natural on the lips. A neutral eyeshadow is always a great go-to. Browns work very well on most eye colors. I have green eyes, and I figured out I personally prefer neutrals for an easy day time look. I love adding purple in there as well. My absolutely FAVORITE neutral eyeshadow pallet is by L.A Girl. Actually, I love the pallet so much that I also got L.A Girl pallets in purple and neon. One big tip I have to say about doing a neutral eye is make sure you use a matte shadow in your crease. It doesn’t reflect the light, therefore making your crease look cleaner, deeper, and more defined. Also please blend it out. Another nice thing about doing a neutral eye during the day, is that all you have to do is throw on some lipstick and you’re ready for the night. Sidenote, I’ve been getting requests for starting a YouTube channel and I want to know your thoughts on it. As always, Love and lipstick to all my babes out there, from me, Moxie 💋
Ever have those days where you wake up and figure out that your tired eyes are not going to be fixed with simple makeup. But you don’t have time to do something elaborated to get rid of the under eye circles. One of my favorite things to do when thag happens is play up my lips! I’ll use light eye makeup (don’t forget concearler under the eyes! My favorite is color correcting concealer) and stick with mostly nudes then… Bam! Big smack of color. By using a bold lipsticks it automatically draws attention to your lips… Which should help keep attention away from how tired your eyes are. I love using red lipstick because it’s a classic. However, if you aren’t comfortable with red there are several different options, pinks, dark marroons, purples, oranges, greens, blues, blacks… It’s all how comfortable you are. I am comfortable with most colors, speaking of which, keep an eye out for my article coming up on ombre lips. I do have to say this. If you decide to go for a bold lip I suggest using a scrub (if you have time) and make sure your lips are moisturized. Also, if you are going to be gone for a long period of time, I suggest liquid lipsticks. I’m wearing one by the brand Ciate, which is a UK brand, in the picture. I also love NYX Liquid Suede and Lingerie lines, Meet Matte Huges by The Balm, Colourpop, and Madly Matte by Kleancolor. I will be trying one from Tarte which I am excited about and will let you know how it goes. As always please leave feedback in the comments. I would love to hear ways on how I can improve my blog to suit your wants.
