Winter Makeup! (MUA)

Howdy Everyone!

So today we are going to show you how to do a simple and easy Winter Makeup tutorial in only 5 steps! Let's get started!

1. Apply your usual everyday base (concealer and foundation), we prefer matte! And then apply a medium toned blusher to give a nice rosy glow! 

MUA blushers are affordable and pigmented. If you can't get them in your country you can order them online from the MUA website http://www.muastore.co.uk/

2. Heavy brows are in this Winter so go down to Boots/Superdrug/your local drugstore and find a nice new powder or gel! We suggest using a MAC 266 Angled Brush to apply the powder for the best application. We also enjoy the MUA Brow Kit because it is affordable and does the job!


3. Onto the eyes! There are always loads of different looks each year but we just enjoy a smokey eye!
To do this you need a fluffy blending brush, an applicator brush that packs on the colour and a palette that contains a range of dark and light colours. Apply a light, natural base and then with a medium toned colour apply it from the center of the lid to the outside of the lid. Finally with a dark colour like black put it through the crease with the fluffy brush. To highlight the lid add a shimmery light colour under the brow bone and in the inner corners. Also run a mixture of the colours on the lash line. We recommend using any of the MUA eyeshadow palettes, especially the Elysium Palette. It also comes with a double ended eyeliner : black and a highlighting colour.
4. To finish off the eyes apply a black liquid liner to your top lash line in a thickness that suits your eyeshape. If you can't do eyeliner very well tweet us if you want us to do a blog post on it. (our Twitter will be at the bottom of this post) Or you can direct message us on Instagram/Twitter or comment on one of our Instagram pictures! (our Instagram will also be down below!)
Add a few coats of black mascara too, if you want you can add natural falsies.
5. Finally add a coat of a medium to dark toned berry lipstick. Berry lipsticks look good when they are matte. If you don't want a dark lip, you can apply a natural colour.
We hope you enjoyed this blog post! If you try to recreate the look feel free to tweet us a picture on Twitter or Instagram!
