Bronze Glow

       Hey everyone! Hope you're having a great week so far. Almost Friday! Ugh, I could not be more excited about the weekend. 1). I get to sleep in. 2). I have my MAC training classes this weekend!!!! SO excited, I can't even tell you! Hopefully I'll learn a bunch of new things that I can come back and show you all!

       Today's look is a bronze glow that I absolutely love. No matter your skin tone, eye color, face shape, etc., anyone can do this look. As always, all tips will be in the captions below each picture. Enjoy!

I started by priming my face with Benefit's the POREfessional, combined with the L'Oreal Miracle Blur.

For foundation, I used the Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous foundation in the color "842."

I wanted a lot from within look, so I used this Revlon Skinlights Face Illuminator in "Bare Light." I love this stuff. It gives a really subtle glow, without leaving your face looking like a disco ball, or super glittery. It's just a nice highlighter shade. Now, I am oily, so this stuff lasts about 4 hours on my skin before it starts breaking up my foundation. It only does this because I'm oily. So, I wouldn't wear this out if I'm going to be out for a really long period of time. For my dry skin girls though... Omg. This will be heaven on your skin. I still wear it though, cause I love the glow it gives. They have a few other shades in this line as well. This was the most neutral one, so I went with it.

I just put a few drops of it in with my foundation, like so. Then I mix it together. It looks like I am about to use a ton of foundation, but it's just running down the back of my hand. It wasn't really that much.

Moving on, I primed the eyes with the Lorac Behind the Scenes eye primer.

I forgot to add this, but I used that "Cream" shade first, and applied it from lash line to brow bone. Then I took "Orange Soda" and put it right into my crease.

Then I took this gorgeous L'Oreal Infallible eye shadow in "Amber Rush," and applied that all over the lid.

How gorgeous is that?!

I applied it like so.

Now, this is what you should have so far.

Next, I took "Sienna" and blended that into the crease with a large fluffy brush.

This is what you should have at this point.

For liner, I used the L'Oreal Lineuer Intense in the color "Earthen Rock Brown." 

I created a winged liner for this look.

Going back to the skin, I used the MAC Pro Longwear concealer in "NC25."

Concealer is done!

To set that concealer in place, I used the MAC Prep + Prime translucent setting powder.

I then set the rest of the face with the Rimmel Stay Matte powder in "001 Translucent."

I wanted a really warm toned bronzer, so I used the NYX Matte bronzer in Medium.

The face is now set, and has some color.

Then I used this orangey blush from the BH Cosmetics 10 Blush palette. Love these blushes!!

For brows, I used my trusty Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in "Medium Ash."

Brows are done!

To brighten up the eye area, I used the Rimmel Scandal-Eyes waterproof Kajal pencil liner in "Nude" to line my lower waterline.

After that, I took "Rum Cake" and applied it to my lower lash line.

Like so.

Then I went back to "Amber Rush" and applied a bit of this onto the middle portion of the lower lash line.

Like so.

We're almost there!

For mascara, I used the Jordana Best Lash Extreme volumizing mascara.

Then I applied false lashes. These are the Ardell Demi Wispies.

To add even more glow, I used Stila "Kitten" eye shadow to highlight the face.

I put it on the tips of my cheekbones...

Along the Cupid's bow...

On the inner corners of the eyes...

And under the brow bone.

Super highlighted!

For lips I used Rimmel Moisture Renew lipstick in "Nude Delight."

And here's the final look!

       So, there it is! A bronzed, lit from within makeup tutorial. I hope you all liked this look! If you did, let me know what you think in the comments below, or on my Facebook page, "Beautymark."
