in Looks & Hauls on

Oh, the sweet sweet sound of Friday!  😀 It’s been quite a week for me, so here’ s hoping the weekend is a relaxing one! For today’s look I reached for Makeup Geek Eyeshadow (review coming soon!). These are part of the traditional range, not the Foiled line like last weeks review, but they are still stunning. Let’s get to the look!

EYES…I wanted to do a reddish/plummy eye, so I applied Makeup Geek Bitten all over the lid up to the crease. Next, I mixed Peach Smoothie and Creme Brûlée for my transition shade, and then applied Crave (from the Naked Basics Palette) to my outer corner. I mixed Bitten and Cocoa Bear for my lower lash line, then applied Starry Eyed to the center of my lids for some glow.

I lined my upper lash line and water line with Urban Decay Crave, then applied some new falsies from House of Lashes called Boudoir. These babies are so full and gorgeous!!

FACE….I used a dampened beauty blender to apply a light layer of Laura Mercier Silk Creme Moisturizing Photo Edition Foundation – phew, what a name. It’s my current favorite, but it can look cakey, so I highly suggest applying it with a makeup sponge!

CHEEKS…I lightly bronzed my face with the shade Havana from the Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit, and then used Burberry No. 06 Tangerine on the apples of my cheeks. It’s one of my favorite blushes, and it has the Burberry pattern embossed on the powder, it’s so cute! Then for some glow, I used a tiny bit of highlight from Painted Earth.

LIPS…I went with a Bite Beauty High Pigment Lip Pencil in Rhubarb, and topped it with a creamy neutral pink gloss from CK One. Both products wear nicely on the lips, and feel super comfy!

Outtakes….

face of the day

As most of you know I’m a mommy to a 2-year old…so I don’t normally look this glamorous haha I get my Face of the Day’s done during Aubrey’s nap time, but sometimes that doesn’t work out so well. She woke up early today, and refused to look at the camera (and when she did she cried). This is real life folks 😉 and yes, that’s really my blondie daughter, she got none of my genes and all of her daddy’s! LOL

I hope you all have a fabulous weekend, let me know what products you reached for today!

    You look amazing, as always! Love the lashes and shadow. And your daughter is so cute!

    I can’t stop staring at your baby. She’s precious. Her face shape is so much like yours. And as usual your makeup is flawless.

        My granddaughter is 20 months and gets very pouty and cranky at times so I sure know what it’s like. If she’s in a good mood we can ask her to make a pouty face and she laughs and does it.

  10. Kristen / Glambunctious says

    Such a cute post! I love the pics with Aubrey! Such a cutie pie! I love that you used an orange toned blush with the a cranberry eye – it really looks nuanced and super lovely!

    Oh, I was thinking I hope your husband is going to take you out with that glamorous look, and then there’s your adorable daughter. love it!

  12. Erika says

    Your little one is a cutie pie! Lovely makeup look, especially the eyes, those MUG shadows are gorgeous.

  15. MandyChameleonStampede says

    Your makeup is gorgeous as usual, but your little sweetie stole the show 😉

      I’ve been asked several times to do a falsies post, so I plan on it soon! I just need to figure out the best way to photograph myself applying them lol

    This is a great look, Julie. Your daughter is so cute! I was blonde when I was little too. She totally has your eyes. 🙂 The Makeup Geek shadows look great. I’m so bummed because when I went to order some, my computer said there was a threat on the site so I opted to wait. Hopefully soon.

      Thank you! I see a teeny tiny bit of me in her, but she’s super tall, blonde and is stubborn like her daddy haha I’ve actually heard other people say their browsers gave them the same warning on the MUG site – so strange! Have you tried emailing customer service? I didn’t have an issue with the site, or maybe Safari just doesn’t care about my identity enough to warn me haha
