Here's my beauty tip for this week:

Winged eyeliner and matte eyeshadow look amazing in the fall months. Now, I know that the perfect eyeliner flick is hard to achieve,

but this amazing creation has simplified it SO much for me. You can probably find at your local drugstore, like I did, or get it online. Either way, it is a necessity.
I also highly recommend getting a matte eyeshadow palette if you don't have one already. Aim for one that has a color similar to your skin tone, as well as one hue darker, and one shade lighter.

Some quick eyeshadow instructions:
  1. Apply a little bit of eyeshadow primer (concealer works too) all over your lid.
  2. Place the medium eyeshadow color sparingly over your lid, which will help blend the other colors.
  3. Blend a little bit of the darkest color (should be dark brown, not black) into the crease of your eyelid where there is a natural shadow. I like to also touch a little of this color to the shadow below my lower lip.
  4. Lastly, use the light color on the inner corner of your eye, under your eyebrow, and a little on the center of your eyelid. I also like to apply a little of a shimmery light color on my cupid's bow on my upper lip.
  5. And most importantly, blend! The key to a good eyeshadow look is to blend everything well.
I also like to use a tinted lip balm, like this one from Bareminerals. I personally like the dark berry one. It's moisturizing and adds a little color without sparkle. They have a handful of shades that will look great with a variety of skin tones. Love you guys, and happy makeup!
