Snow Day Makeup

If you live in the UK you may be experiencing a bit of snow today! I LOVE the snow. It makes me very happy and everything just looks so pretty. Since my office decided to close today I thought I’d spend a little extra time on my makeup and created this cold, wintery, snow day makeup look!

Base:

• First I moisturised the sh*t out of my skin with the Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream. I’m currently recovering from a cold so that, paired with the freezing temperatures has completely dried my skin out.
• Then I primed my face with the stunning Guerlain L’Or Pure Radiance Primer.
• I applied the Becca 24 Ultimate Coverage 24 Hour foundation with a Spectrum B02 brush.
• Next, I set the foundation in place with the RCMA No Colour Powder.
• I used the Kat Von D Super Brow in blonde to fill in my brows.

Contour, Blush and Highlight:

• For contouring, I used the Anastasia Beverly Hills Pro Series Contour Kit and used the darkest shade to carve out my cheekbones.
• I used my new favourite blusher, the Hourglass Ambient Lighting blush in the shade Mood Exposure.
• To highlight I used the Anastasia Beverly Hills Aurora palette and the shade Orion which is a really frosty blue.

Eyes:

• Of course, I primed my eyes with the Urban Decay Original Primer Potion.
• Then I took the shade Burkina from the Juvia’s Place Masquerade palette for my transition shade.
• I then took the shade Ada and applied this to the outer corner and blended it out.
• Next, I used Dalia for the centre of my lid.
• For the inner third of my lid, I used the shade Zola.
• I highlighted the inner corners with Orion from the Anastasia Beverly Hills Aurora palette.
• I also took the shades Ada and Dalia and applied these to my lower lashline.
• For my eyeliner, I used the Kat Von D Dagger liquid eyeliner and drew a wing.
• Lastly, for mascara, I used the Benefit BadGAL BANG.

Lips:

• In keeping with the wintery theme, I used the Anastasia Beverly Hills Matte lipstick in the shade Cobalt.

Final Look:
