Contrasting Colors Addiction

Mix up your colors!! In an art aspect contrasting colors compliment each other beautifully. It may seem weird but some gorgeous combinations that you can make are yellow and purple, orange and blue, and green and red. Incorporate these into your makeup!! My favorite combo is yellow and purple. To acheieve this look without looking like your dipped your face on a color pallete is by using subtle shades of yellow and purple. Go for a light gold with a yellow tone all over your lid. Next blend a rose gold shimmery color next to the gold allowing both to show. Next go for a mauve or purple brown, or even plum to blend into your crease and outer corner. Allow the crease color to be subtle enough to wear you dont look like a clown. Blend, Blend, Blend! Add a shimmery ivory or any ivory as a highlight below your brow bone and in the inner corners of your eye. Use a brown pencil for a more subtle day look on the top and bottom lashes or a black pencil or black liquid eyeliner for a more dramatic night time look just on the top. Use a black mascara to make your eyes pop on both upper and lower lashes. For cheeks a subtle mauve is great on the apples of your cheeks with a little bronzer applied on the cheekbones before hand. A fabulous lip color would be a peachy pink lipstick with a pink lipgloss on top. This simple look is beautiful with a floral outfit that is perfect for spring and summer!!

YouTube Guru Addiction

Sooo I know it has been ages since I have made a post but here we go. I. love. youtube makeup gurus. I go to these girls for everything from new makeup ideas to product reviews and just for entertainment. I seriously wont buy a product without seeing a review on it because I trust their opinion and I dont want to spend my money on something that may not work at all. So I have created a list of girls that I subscribe to and basically follow religiously. I will attach for you guys a link under each little speal about them!
(P.S. These videos are chosen by random, they do not mean they are my favorite because it would be so hard for me to pick one but they are just a random preview of who these girls are)

The first makeup guru I ever really started watching was ahanhbarbie34. I have seriously been watching this girl for about 3 years. She helped push my passion for beauty so far. I would watch video after video every night copying makeup looks, hairstyles, even learned how she would cut her hair. Although I watch other people she is still the one that I will swear by.

The next girl I love I actually recently came across a few months ago and her channel name is fleurdeforce. She is from london and is just so adorable. I love her reviews on products because she really goes in depth and talks about everything from affordable drugstore brands to more pricey high end brands which I love because its nice to not just watch what they can do with products such as nars, stila, laura mercier, etc but I can actually easily afford a product they are using! So anyways fleur does hair and makeup tutorials and then random clothing hauls which I find very interesting because I love seeing what is over there in London. Also she doesnt load on the black eyeshadow and create looks that are not very realistic for day to day looks but everything that she does it more ideal for work, school, and going out. She is quickly becoming my new favorite guru.

The next one I wanna show you guys is actually fleurs friend Ingrid. Her channel name is missglamorazzi. She is from America so you dont have to worry about any accent if you get annoyed by it which I have no idea if you would with fleurs. I havent gotten as "hooked" on her channel as I have on  some of the other girls but I have only been watching her for a couple weeks so Im sure that will change. 

She does basically all the same tutorials and reviews as Fleurs but of different products of course.

My last makeup guru I wanna talk about is one that I actually discovered tonight. Her name is Allison! How exciting right?! Well I thought so :) So anyways, her channel name is amarixe. I havent watched tooo many of her videos but her makeup tutorials that I have watched are so good. I love her makeup style and the looks she puts together. Thats all I can really say about her because well I havent known her channel for more than a couple of hours but I can already tell that I like her.
