Hi loves! I know it has been a while since I posted on here and I am so sorry about that! My new job has been my priority the last few months, but now I’m back in full swing. I am kicking 2017 off with my first-ever makeup tutorial! I tried really hard to get this to work properly, but did run into some technical difficulties. That’s okay, though, because it’s all a learning experience, right? This tutorial features almost all Too Faced products and I’ve written about this look before in my Natural Glow Party Look post. I hope you enjoy the video and please subscribe to my channel!

Work Party Makeup
This week, I’ve been representing the magazine I work for a lot, and tonight is no exception. We have a work-related function after working hours, so I thought I’d keep it professional, yet fun for the event tonight. Here’s the look and check out the details below the photos.
Face:
- Primed & Poreless pure primer by Too Faced
- Born This Way liquid foundation in warm nude by Too Faced (applied with a beauty blender)
- Bye Bye Under Eye concealer by it Cosmetics
- Primed & Poreless priming powder (translucent), this sets the foundation and gives an airbrushed look
- Smashbox Blush Rush in the color Passion
- Candlelight Glow highlighting powder in Rose Glow by Too Faced
Eyes:
- Eyeshadow primer potion by Urban Decay
- Naked 3 Eyeshadow Palette by Urban Decay
- On lid to brow bone: Strange
- On lid and crease (wet your eyeshadow brush first): Buzz
- On crease up to brow bone and a little on inner corners: Naked Lunch by MAC Cosmetics
- Blend from crease up to mix colors

I officially am in love with that Too Faced Candlelight Glow highlighting powder and will be using it every down from now on. Do you like this look? Let me know!
Professional Glam Look
Today I am heading back to my alma mater, San Francisco State University, to help judge magazine ideas for a contemporary magazines class (my full time job is the digital media manager for Marin Magazine in Sausalito, CA). That being said, I decided to do a full face of makeup today since I will be out representing the magazine. Why do I call it “professional glam”? Because the gold layer of eyeshadow has glitter galore in it. Subtle enough for the workplace, but glamorous enough to up your every day makeup game. I used a variety of products that I will list below. Here are a couple snaps of my look:
Face:

Lips:

- Perfect Lips Long Lasting Liner in Perfect Nude by Too Faced

So that’s my look! I received my latest Too Faced order yesterday and will be writing a post about those products soon, as well as my before and after series with the solid beautycleanser I purchased from Sephora.
I hope you like this look!
Party Look Using (Mainly) Too Faced Products
On Saturday, my husband and I drove down to Santa Cruz for a friend’s going away party. Since we would be seeing people we hadn’t seen since our wedding last October and since I’d be meeting new people, I thought I’d create a new party look. If you remember, my last haul from Sephora included the Too Faced Boudoir Eyes eyeshadow palette, so I decided to give that a go. Here are two photos of my look: one showing everything, and the other, a close up of my shimmery eye shadow. Read below the photos to see how I blended the eye look.
Face:
- Primed & Poreless pure primer by Too Faced
- Born This Way liquid foundation in warm nude by Too Faced (applied with a beauty blender)
- Bye Bye Under Eye concealer by it Cosmetics
- Primed & Poreless priming powder (translucent), this sets the foundation and gives an airbrushed look
- Smashbox Blush Rush in the color Passion
Eyes:

- On lid: mixed Satin Sheets and Lap Dance
- On brow: Satin Sheets (to highlight)
