In this video, we are doing a look based off of an Essence Lipstick called the Glitter Flip Lipstick. We are using glitter to create a halo effect on the eyes and a glittery lip look.
00:01:48.400And I'm going to tap off the excess and then I'm going to hit the outer corner and bring that in all the way to the inner corner.
00:01:54.320So normally when I do my eye makeup you'll notice that I usually keep it on the outer corner and just kind of bring it in softly.
00:02:02.200Today what we're going to do is a halo eye.
00:02:04.620So I'm actually going to bring this dark color in all the way to the inner corner because we're going to put the glitter right in the middle.
00:02:13.100I don't want to go too dark with this eye look because I am using glitter on the eyes and as well I'm going to be using glitter on the lips.
00:02:21.360So I don't want to have something really too intense.
00:02:24.360But I do want to achieve that shadow effect so that when I put the glitter in the middle we do get that halo effect.
00:02:31.520So this is kind of probably the heaviest I'm going to go.
00:02:35.040I'm just going to do that on both eyes and even it out.
00:02:39.080The next thing I'm going to do is take this eyeshadow primer and I'm going to use this in the middle of my lid just to kind of set that area, make it ready for glitter.
00:02:48.860So I'm just going to tap that lightly on the area where I am expecting to put glitter so there's more of a base and it'll actually keep it on longer.
00:03:03.020Next I'm going to dip into this glitter shade here.
00:03:06.120I'm just going to use my middle finger and I'm just going to tap in.
00:03:10.560And I'm going to put that right in the center of my lid and just kind of blend it out on the edges a little bit.
00:03:21.880So we get this kind of really cool glittery effect.
00:03:36.340Now because we don't have any foundation on I can just sweep off any glitter that fell and make sure that I have a nice clean base when I go in with my foundation.
00:03:46.460So the next step that I'm going to do is go in with my e.l.f. primer and I'm going to put that on the parts of my face that I want to make a little bit more poreless.
00:03:54.600So that's usually for me on my cheeks and then I like to try and use it on some of my fine lines so around my lips, my smile lines, and then a few in my forehead.
00:04:06.680Now I'm going to go in with the Healthy Foundation by Physicians Formula and I'm just going to paint that on my skin.
00:04:27.580I didn't expect to like it as much as I do.
00:04:30.480It makes things so quick and easy and if you feel like there are any kind of brush strokes you can always go in afterwards with a sponge and just tap those out.
00:04:39.440But it doesn't suck up as much product as when you just use the sponge.
00:04:44.500So I like having the option of doing this when I'm trying to do a quicker base.
00:04:50.060When I have a little bit of extra time then I'll use my sponge, just my sponge, and I don't mind so much.
00:05:11.620I am wearing a perfume that I wore on Jacob's and my cruise when we went to Scotland and Ireland and England.
00:05:20.780And I kind of had been hoping that if I just wore it on the cruise and didn't kind of spread it out over time then I would have memories associated with this perfume.
00:05:31.320And it worked because I put it on and it smells like my cruise.
00:05:35.060Now I'm going to go into my Bare Minerals powder and I'm going to use this same sponge and just set under my eye.
00:05:40.400And this is the only part of my face that I use a loose powder with for the moment because I do have those really bad creases.
00:05:47.700So using a loose powder helps set those down for me.
00:05:51.880For the rest of my face I'm going to go ahead and use this No. 7 Lift and Luminate Triple Action Powder.
00:08:59.000Now, if you are looking for something crazy, stick with this eye look and then just put on a nude lipstick and you're done.
00:09:07.120But if you're looking for something a little bit more holiday fun appropriate, we're going to try this.
00:09:12.300So the first thing I'm going to do since I'm going in with such an incredibly bright shade is I'm going to just line my lips.
00:09:18.040And I'm not lining my lips with the same color.
00:09:20.280I'm just lining my lips so I know where I'm going with this lipstick.
00:09:29.000So what I'm going to do is I put this on and then I have to wait a couple of seconds for it to dry and then I push my lips together and I get this amazing glitter flip.
