Here is another Valentine's day inspired look. I think this is different than most Valentine's Day looks, but it would work for those of you who don't like pinks or purples. I was inspired by the fact that chocolate is very popular for Valentine's Day and I also wanted to incorporate some red undertones (I really dislike straight up pink eye makeup for Valentine's, for some reason). I can definitely see myself wear this for a night time look, a date perhaps? (Ironically I wore this tonight for a date. Completely non-intentionally).
Oh and then I decided to wear my awesome Star Wars jacket :)

How to Achieve this Look
This look is incredibly easy. You just have to apply a cranberry shade on the entire lid (I used MACs Cranberry). Then apply a matte, chocolate brown on the outer V and the lower lash line. Just to make this more interesting, I applied Fyrinnae 'Te Amo' on the inner 1/3 of the lid. I also applied 'Crimson Ghost' in the inner corner. Apply liner and mascara. My lashes were really gross today so added some falsies.

What do you think? At first I thought the lips would be too much for the eyes, but it wasn't overpowering at all. I actually really liked the outcome!
You look gorgeous <3 Love the eye makeup & lip color!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I'm definitely going to try this for a date sometime. And I think the lip colour compliments the eyes very well, gorgeous look overall! As always! ;)
ReplyDeleteYour eye makeup is gorgeous as usual. :) And i really love your lippie shade!
ReplyDeleteYou look ridiculously hot in those pictures, if you don't mind me saying. I am totally going to do this look on the 14th, I'll be on holiday with my man and think this would be a perfect look for going out to dinner with him!

ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a pretty look! I like how you didn't use pinks either - pink for Valentine's Day is so overrated, imo. I love the lip color with the eye makeup! It doesn't overpower it at all :)
ReplyDeleteThe warm browns are right up my alley. I really like it with the pink lip!
