It’s rare to see me without eyeshadow on but today I was feeling lazy and decided to just stick to eyeliner instead. Now does eyeliner have to be boring and simple? No way! I winged it out and gave my eyes a more retro feel along with lining the bottom lids with black eyeshadow. Since the eye look seemed a bit too simple for my taste, I decided to add some mint green liner on the inner corners of my bottom lid and blended the black shadow with it.
Although some people would shy away from mint green liner, it’s actually one of my favorite colors and it makes the whites of your eyes pop and goes great with a simple outfit. I kept the rest of the look simple with some bronzer and a gloss that’s close to my natural lip color. I noticed in photos that my Dior bronzer is coming off as a little too orange since I’m so pale now and I decided to go on the hunt for a new bronzer. Let me know if you have any recommendations! Believe it or not before this summer, I only wore bronzer once in a while since I thought it didn’t look that great on me but now I’m addicted. I have naturally round cheeks so dusting some bronzer on my non-existent cheekbones gives me a healthy glow and gives off a slimmer appearance.

As for the eyeliner, it’s from the Sephora brand and one of my favorites for liquid liner since the brush is so thin and glides across the lid so easily. It dries off matte in seconds and doesn’t budge for the rest of the day. I’m not sure if I’ve ever worn this for 12 hours straight but I have worn it for 8-9 hours for work and it never fails! It’s around $12 at Sephora which is a bit pricier than drugstore but it’s high quality makes up for it.
Other then that, I had a hard time taking pictures since its so cloudy outside and the lighting in my house is terrible. Bear with me as I get used to working with this new camera!
Until next time lovelies,
