good vibes: music festival makeup.







It is officially music festival season! Bring on the sun, the good vibes, and great music. Today's look is a more indie inspired festival look. Feel free to switch out the corals for colors that coordinate with your outfit. This look is very easy to achieve and perfectly unkempt, for an easy going aesthetic. I hope you enjoy!


the eyes:

-Start by priming the lids with an eye base or eye primer of choice. Also take this along the lower lashline, as we will be applying shadow there too. ( Lorac Behind The Scenes Primer )
-Apply a matte peachy shadow to the lid with a flat shader brush. (Kat Von D Lady Bird Palette)
-Next, sweep a matte taupe shadow through the crease and blow the outter corner out to create a cat like effect. This will give the look depth. (Kat Von D Lady Bird Palette)
-Line the upper lashline with a deep brown kohl liner, and create a wing shape. This does not have to be perfect, because you then should smudge this out with a smudge or pencil brush. (Kat Von D Autograph Pencil #Immortal Love)
-With a matte brown shadow blend this over the wing portion of the liner to soften the edges and create a nice transition between the taupe shadow and the liner. (Urban Decay #Rewind)
-Line the waterline with a nude or white waterproof eyeliner pencil.Also, carry this around the inner tear duct. (NYX Wonder Pencil #Light)
-Apply the same brown eyeliner to the outer third of the lower lashline and connect this to the winged liner. (Kat Von D Autograph Pencil #Immortal Love)
-With a flat definer brush, line the lower lash line with a orange, red-brown matte shadow. Carry the shadow all the way out to the end of the cat shape of the brown liner. On the inner corner disconnect from the true lashline and place the shadow under the nude pencil liner previously applied. (Kat Von D Lady Bird Palette)
-Prep the lashes for falsies with several coats of black mascara. (Lancome Hypnose Drama)
-Apply a fun spiky pair of falsies to complete the eye look. (Ardell Lashes #Scanties)


the lips:

-Compliment the red brown eyeshadow with a beautiful and long lasting coral lip. (Rimmel Show Off Lip Laquer #Luna)

the cheeks:

-Today is not the day to skip on the bronzer ladies! Apply a warm bronzer to the perimeters of the face. (Sephora Los Cabos Bronzer)
-For blush opt of a peachy apricot shade with some sheen. (Kardashian Beauty Sunlit Ombre Cheek Color)
-Top it all off with a cream highlighter for glowing skin. (Benefit Watts Up)
