It is so difficult to reproduce an amazing look without knowing exactly what was done to create it in the first place. Here is a photo tutorial capturing a simple, fresh makeup look that will compliment everyone! I incorporated some of my favorite products, as well as some new ones that I am experimenting with.
Does anybody else make crazy facial expressions like me when applying makeup?

I seriously cannot get enough of this foundation (review here)! It wears flawlessly throughout the day and the shade Lightness matches my skin perfectly! I prefer bouncing it onto moisturized skin with a Beauty Blender, but I suggest playing with it a bit to figure out the application technique that works best for you. Check out The Detox Market or Integrity Botanicals if you are interested in testing out a sample!
I am still experimenting with how to use this concealer to its fullest potential, but I enjoy just tapping it underneath my eyes for a brightening effect. I like to use my ring finger for eye products as it has the lightest touch and will protect the delicate skin in that area. Beware that a little goes a long with this beautiful, airy cream! Check out my full review here for more info!
The color of this bronzer imparts a healthy, sun-kissed glow that I can wear all year round. There is also a subtle, golden shimmer that provides a gorgeous warm, radiance. I use my fingers to blend this on my temples, around my hairline, and lightly across the bridge of my nose. I then smush my Beauty Blender and use this bronzer to lightly contour underneath my cheekbones.
The satiny texture of this rose gold cream is so luxurious! It melts seamlessly into the skin I have been using this product everyday for a stunning, sophisticated iridescence. I pretty much douse myself in this stuff, but I like to focus it on the tops of my cheekbones and down the center of my nose. (Review here)
This was my first time trying out a blush from 100% Pure and I was very impressed! Although it was a bit dusty, the pigmentation was great and it seemed to wear well. I have some additional testing planned, so check back soon for a review!
This gorgeous, pearly highlighter is a must-have! I tap it on the inner corners of my eyes, underneath the arches of my eyebrows, and on the tops of my cheekbones for beautiful illumination.
This pencil glides on without any tugging or skipping. I like using the brown shade as opposed to black because I find it to be less harsh with my pale complexion. I added a small flick at the outer corners of my eyes for a bit of interest and lift. If you are interested in a more defined wing, try using a piece of tape angled from the outer corners of your eyes to the ends of your eyebrows.
Lily Lolo Mascara
I have rather short, uncooperative lashes. This mascara adds a ton of volume and definition when I wiggle the brush at the base of my lashes and work upward. Stay tuned for more thoughts on this mascara coming soon!
Alima Pure Natural Definition Eye Pencil
This pencil has great pigmentation and the color Paper, is the perfect, soft white to add along the waterline for a bright, eyeopening effect. For a more dramatic effect, try a darker hue along your waterline. I also love adding a subtle pop of color by lining my waterline with a saturated, vibrant color!
Ilia Beauty Tinted Lip Conditioner in Kokomo
This moisturizing lip conditioner is amazing! For a fresh look that will easily transition from season-to-season, I like to apply this beautiful, sheer mauve shade straight from the bullet and top it with a touch of Living Luminizer at the center of my lips and along my cupid's bow.
Here's the finished look! I hope that this was helpful and that you enjoy creating your own fresh, glowing look!
