cream shadow/liner duo, smashbox. Lipstick, Wet’n’wild no 901B

MAKEUP. I get lots of emails from people wondering what kind of makeup I use. Well, I’m by no means an expert but what the heck! Yesterday I found this awesome cream shadow liner duo from smashbox that I absolutely love! It’s perfect for creating soft, smoky eyes and the best part is that you don’t have to be a brush wizard to handle this baby, just use your fingers and it will look awesome! The color duo I’m wearing is called Slate but they have a bunch of other color combinations that I’m dying to try aswell.

As I said in the beginning of this post, I’m no makeup pro at all but I know what I like, so if you want more makeup tips in the blog, let me know and I’ll try to post more about my personal favorites!

  17. beautiful look
    I was wondering if you could tell me what the name of the lipstick is. It’s a beautiful shade and just what I was looking for. Thanks.

  18. normally i’m not an huge fan of make-up, but you know how to wear it! you’re such a natural beauty! and is that a tattoo on your arm? i’m curious about it!

  22. Love these types of posts! Could you try to do more? Maybe like your foundation/skincare regime?

    Thanks & I love your blog <3

  28. Uuuuuh I like this make up! Smoky eyes can be very tricky as they can make you look a little too somber. But you just did it the right way! It is soft and it makes you look mysterious. And I also love the lipstick. AWESOME colour!

    Exercising for New Year’s? Because this would be a great make up for the night of the year! :)

  52. In some of the pictures you post on your blog, you really do look like Blake Lively! Beautiful!

  66. I’d love for more make-up and beauty posts. That smashbox dup looks cool. I didn’t know you had a tattoo, what does it say? :)

  75. Fantastic, I’ve never tried cream shadows for a smoky look before (I usually smudge eye-liner and used some grey eye shadow) but I like what you’ve done with the cream. Do you find it is more resilient, in that is doesn’t decide to move to one part of your eye after a while and make you look a bit odd? I have that problem using powder.

  77. Effortless beautiful as usual! This look is really great for blondes! I will also try this lipstick!
    Thank you
