FOTD: Bronze Eyes + Bright Coral Lips



I feel like these colors look great together on anyone, and are perfect for spring and summer!

You don't want your skin to look to heavy or matte with this look, so I just used Garnier BB Cream to even my skin tone out. Then a little Avon Ideal Flawless concealer under my eyes and on blemishes, and set everything with some Avon Ideal Shade translucent loose powder.

All of the eye shadows I used were from the Nyx Crimson Amulet palette so I'm not sure of the exact shade names, but you just want to sweep a bronze shadow from lash line to just above your crease and on lower lash line and inner corners of eyes. Use a gold shade just at the center of your lid to add a little dimension to the bronze. Then use a matte flesh tone shade to blend from the crease to the brow bone. Finish off by tight lining your eyes with a black pencil liner(I used Avon Ultra Luxury eyeliner)and a couple coats of mascara(Rimmel Volume Accelerator).

On the cheeks I contoured a little with bronzer(Avon Glow bronzing pearls)and then put a little blush from the Crimson Amulet palette on cheekbones(the peachy-pink with gold shimmer shade).

To finish I used a coral lip liner(Nyx slim pencil in Coral)to line and fill in lips, and topped that off with a bright coral lipstick(Nyx round lipstick in Femme).
