Cruelty-Free Makeup Look of the Day

August 12, 2014By Tiffany Rose0 Comments

People ask me all the time, “Tiffany, how do you get your make-up looking so great?” Just kidding. No one has ever asked me that. But you bet your sweet ass they’re gonna start! How you like me now?! I did that to myself!!!

If you knew me, you’d know this is a big deal. I don’t know anything about applying make-up. I want to know, but I’ve been scared to experiment and the crappy stuff I’ve tried in the past had me looking more like a clown than the queen that I am (at least, I felt like a queen when I put my face on for this Glamour Shot).

Because I have very minimal skills, I owe this look to 2 things. 1. Watching a couple of youtube videos and 2. Awesome products. For the make-up tutorials on youtube, just Google that shizzie. Tons of ‘em will come up. But, here’s the lowdown on the goods:

Jewel Up the Ocean metallic eyeshadow from Essence Cosmetics. Oh man, this stuff rules. I applied it using a brush from my Crown HD Collection. It goes on very easily and the color is STUNNING, obviously.
Also from Essence, on my lips I have Wear Berries long lasting lipstick. It didn’t last long, so they lied, but I don’t care. It’s super smooth and rich and I like reapplying it! Had I put some pencil underneath, the color would have stayed longer, I’m sure.
On the lashes, again, Essence FTW. You can’t tell how awesome they looked in this picture, but I used Get Big Lashes and they got big, so they weren’t lying with this one! I’m addicted to this mascara.
Rounding out the list of notable products is Liquid Eyeliner. I really like liquid liner and this one is cheap, does the job, and you can probably buy it a friggin 7-11.

I’m not gonna lie. I was a bit insecure leaving the house with this eyeshadow, but again, I’m not gonna lie. I got loads of looks that night. Lesson learned. I’m branching out and having fun with my face. You should too! Well, with your own face of course.
