"Pink Mint" Makeup Look

Today's color palette...

  I decided to play around with some color today; still inspired by spring and hoping for warm weather to come hither, I selected some pink shades and a beautiful mint green.  This look has lasted through a very long day, and still looks bright and fresh; even as I now type.

My Makeup-how:

1. First I apply Too Faced Insurance Eye primer to my entire lid.

2. Then with a small foundation brush, I applied a thin layer of Nyx Eye Shadow Base (remember this product is very thick, and a little goes a long way!).

3. Then using a eyeshadow brush, I apply HoneyXO Cosmetics (http://www.honeyxo.com/) "Love Me" loose eyeshadow (a light pale pink) pigment on my entire lid; stopping at my crease.

4. Then with another eyeshadow brush, I blend from the outer v to about mid-way to two thirds into my lid, HoneyXO Cosmetics (http://www.honeyxo.com/) "Colors of the Wind" (a darker gold-pink tone) loose eyeshadow pigment.

The shadows are so bright! The camera does them no justice!

5. With a defining brush, I then work in a little of HoneyXO Cosmetics (http://www.honeyxo.com/) "Mermaid Serenade" loose eyeshadow pigment (a gorgeous mint green), into the outer v of my eyes; shading it just a little into my crease mid-way.

6. Then taking that same brush, I line my bottom lash line, also with Mermaid Serenade, for a bright pop of color.

7. With a fluffy highlighting brush, I dusted HoneyXO Cosmetics (http://www.honeyxo.com/) "Cupid" (a white gold shimmer that reflects the sun beautifully) to my brow bone and inner duct.

8. To frame my eyes, I used NYX's retractable black eyeliner to tightline both top and bottom lids. Then, with New York Colors black liquid liner, I line above my upper lash line, but as close as I can to it.

9. With a small blush brush, I dusted the apples of my cheeks with HoneyXO Cosmetics (http://www.honeyxo.com/) "XOXO" blush. This is such a gorgeous blush. It has stunning gold reflects in it that compliment the pink hues.

10. Using a bronzing brush, I applied Nyx Bronzer, in Daydream of Kauai, to the bone structure of my cheeks, blending it in a little at a time. 

11. To finish this look, I applied HoneyXO Cosmetics (http://www.honeyxo.com/) "Hula Girl" lipgloss. Hula Girl is one of my favorite lip glosses; I am totally addicted to its coconut scent!

Ready to begin another hectic day!

I want to thank my dear friend Honey at: http://www.youtube.com/user/destne146 and http://www.honeygirlsworld.com/blog.html for recommending the Too Faced eye shadow primer. It works very well.
