Hello beautiful ladies and welcome to today's video where I'm going to be
00:00:03.760
showing you how to get this professional look. I am going to a conference this
00:00:07.600
week to sing the national anthem and I was thinking about okay I want to wear
00:00:11.820
something that is very professional looking I want to do my makeup in a way
00:00:15.320
that is you know very nice looking but doesn't draw attention to itself and it
00:00:20.580
got me thinking what is a really good professional makeup look so I decided to
00:00:24.560
sit down and record this for you guys and see if this is something that you
00:00:28.140
guys would be interested in seeing so let's get started so the first thing
00:00:31.680
that we're going to do is I'm going to start off with a glowy primer because
00:00:35.760
when you're indoors all day usually you've got really high air conditioning
00:00:39.180
in the office and if you're wearing a mattifying primer your skin can feel
00:00:42.980
kind of dried out by the end of the day so I recommend going in with a glowy
00:00:46.560
primer this is the infallible glow lock primer from L'Oreal I'm just gonna go in
00:00:52.740
with clean hands and massage that over the skin
00:01:01.360
so the next thing that I'm going to do is I'm going to go in with some concealer
00:01:05.100
that's the same color as my foundation and cover up any blemishes that I have
00:01:08.620
and then I'm going to go in with a lighter concealer underneath my eyes and I'm
00:01:12.540
actually going to do that before I put on foundation we talked about this a
00:01:15.720
little bit in my last video that I've really been enjoying putting on my
00:01:19.060
concealer before my foundation because it's a little bit more natural and it
00:01:22.660
doesn't look so stark if you're using a lighter concealer than you are a
00:01:25.780
foundation so I figured I would just keep going with that so the concealer that I'm
00:01:29.980
going to use on my blemishes is the boing concealer by benefit and I use shade
00:01:35.320
number one I'm just gonna go in with this little like concealer brush it's flat so it
00:01:41.060
doesn't move the product around very much and I'm just gonna go over and hit
00:01:45.940
these these little spots here like that and then blend out the edges with my
00:02:00.540
so the next thing that I'm going to do is I'm going to go in with this NARS
00:02:03.380
concealer in Chantilly and I found that if I use my fingertip or a brush with
00:02:08.820
this it's just too thick and it'll go into all of my under eye creases so
00:02:13.300
instead I go in with this little damp sponge that I told you guys I've
00:02:15.880
been loving and I'll just go right in with it and then tap it in underneath my
00:02:24.060
in other news what have you guys been up to let me know down below like what have
00:02:29.880
you been really excited about because summer's here now and are you taking any
00:02:35.900
vacations life is so crazy here it's it's been insane we are I like can't even
00:02:43.540
think about all of the things we have going on I'm singing the national anthem
00:02:47.180
this week I think this will be up before I sing the national anthem I'll be
00:02:52.360
singing the national anthem in DC and I'm also going to be singing in a concert
00:02:58.260
which I'm really excited about in about two weeks I'll be singing in a concert at a
00:03:05.600
distillery it's actually just a recital so it's just me and a pianist and it's
00:03:11.140
just gonna be really fun I'm really excited I'm gonna be singing some of my
00:03:13.780
favorite arias as well as some really cool art songs and I'm really just
00:03:19.060
looking forward to doing that so I haven't had the opportunity for a little
00:03:22.640
while and making music with it with another musician is just so much fun and
00:03:27.880
then the biggest news is that Jacob and I are moving in like a month so
00:03:33.760
that's also crazy and we haven't started packing yet so that's gonna be it's gonna
00:03:38.980
be a lot but I am really excited for the move we're going to have a really nice
00:03:45.460
place place that's like actually gonna be big enough for me to have a studio which
00:03:50.500
I'm really excited about because what you see here is actually our guest room um so
00:03:56.080
I am looking forward to having my own space and being able to decorate it in a
00:03:59.740
way that I really like so before we get looking even crazier than this I'm gonna
00:04:04.960
put on my foundation so I'm using the L'Oreal infallible fresh wear 24-hour
00:04:09.940
foundation and the reason I'm using this is because we used a glowy primer this is
00:04:15.100
more of a matte foundation but the combination will just give you some
00:04:18.520
longevity without making your face look super dry so I'm just gonna put this on
00:04:22.860
my hand and then I'm gonna go in with a damp sponge this one's by ecotools and I'm
00:04:35.380
so now quickly before anything moves around I'm going to set my under eyes so
00:04:55.820
you always want to make sure that you tap out any creasing before you set it and
00:05:00.100
then I'm going to just take this damp sponge and I'm going to go into this
00:05:05.020
powder by bare minerals and I'm going to pat this under the eye just to set it
00:05:15.820
and now I'm just gonna go ahead and set my whole face Jacob and I have been
00:05:19.960
watching some TV shows we started watching an old one that we can kind of
00:05:25.300
like binge watch it's called justified I don't know if you've heard of it it's it's
00:05:29.680
not like totally unheard of and Timothy Oliphant is the main guy and he is such
00:05:33.820
a fun actor I really like him and it's it's been good so far it's interesting I
00:05:39.640
I can't decide which characters I like and which ones I don't because they all
00:05:45.580
kind of are there you know what they have a lot of layers which is nice it's not
00:05:49.720
very obvious which ones we have to root for although of course we root for the
00:05:54.580
main guy because he's the main guy but if you've watched the show let me know down
00:05:58.840
below what you think of it and tell me what shows you're watching some always
00:06:02.440
looking for new suggestions I watched always be my maybe more on that so the
00:06:11.440
next thing that I'm going to do is I'm just going to do a little bit of
00:06:13.360
contouring and a little bit of bronzing so when you go to the office you don't
00:06:17.320
need something that's like a cut contour and really intense but you are under
00:06:21.640
harsh fluorescent lights probably and you don't want to look completely washed out
00:06:25.840
and dead so putting a little bit of color on the face and putting a little
00:06:28.840
bit more dimension in the face will make you look more awake and just make you
00:06:32.680
look nicer so I'm gonna go in with this little brush by real techniques and I'm
00:06:36.700
gonna go into this bronzer by wet and wild and I'm going to just go right from
00:06:42.640
the top of the ear and down towards the mouth ignore all my acne for the moment I'm
00:06:51.100
aware that I've had a really bad breakout see it happens to everybody even me who
00:06:55.540
my skin has really come around there are just times where hormonally or stress
00:07:00.280
or something that you've eaten can make you break out and that's what's happening
00:07:05.320
to me right now so you know it'll go away but it's it is what it is so I'm just
00:07:10.540
kind of tapping my brush right in that hollow I like tapping because it kind of
00:07:15.580
you can feel where the hollow of your cheek is I'm just kind of going down like
00:07:20.380
this and then bringing it up and then I can swirl and bring the color up a
00:07:24.820
little bit I'm just gonna do a little bit underneath the jaw and then just a
00:07:39.120
I'm just gonna take this little fan brush again this is real techniques I'm just
00:07:42.940
gonna go back into that bronzer tap off the excess and then hit both sides of my
00:07:47.920
nose just to narrow it a bit and then go right at the tip to shorten it now I'm
00:07:55.700
just gonna take a big fluffy brush and just bring color all over the face now I'm
00:08:03.460
just gonna go in with some blush I'm going in with this wet and wild keep it
00:08:07.520
peachy color icon blush I'm gonna tap into that tap off the excess and I'm
00:08:13.040
actually not going to hit the apples of the cheek first because you don't want to
00:08:16.580
deposit a ton of color right there immediately because it can look like
00:08:19.460
your con so what I do is I like to hit a little bit behind there sweep sweep it
00:08:27.800
back and then I'll get like a more natural it blends into the contour and this
00:08:32.600
color is not super rosy just choose a color that works for you that looks
00:08:36.560
natural but I like this because it's kind of summery and it does look kind of
00:08:43.760
like I'm not wearing anything it's just a little bit of a flush now I'm just
00:08:47.960
gonna fill in my eyebrows I don't really need to fill it in for the shape but I
00:08:51.780
do need to fill in those bald spots now I'm just gonna go ahead and set these
00:08:58.320
down so that they stay in place all day and now we can move into the eyes so for
00:09:08.080
work I don't think you need to do something that's really crazy I don't
00:09:11.080
think you want to bring a lot of attention to your makeup when you're at
00:09:14.220
work but you do want to look nice and you want to look like you're awake and
00:09:18.280
ready for the day so I'm just gonna bring a little bit of definition to my
00:09:21.480
eyes without making it really obvious so I'm gonna go into my Colourpop Fame
00:09:26.220
palette you guys remember this one I use it a lot and I like this because I
00:09:31.080
think it's a really nice palette for work it has a lot of colors that are just
00:09:34.740
natural and nudes and if you want to get a little bit more fancy with it you can
00:09:38.700
go in with some of the shimmers but you don't have to so that's a nice thing and
00:09:42.360
what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna start off by going in with this shade here
00:09:46.280
center stage and I'm just gonna put this all over the lid to set everything down
00:09:50.820
what are your guys's favorite eyeshadow palettes do you have any that are like
00:09:55.180
must-haves Abby go out and buy them like I need to try these let me know
00:10:01.980
because I really want I want to try what you guys like I want to know what you
00:10:06.780
guys are looking at that's that's fun for me so let me know so the next thing
00:10:11.520
that I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go in with stardom here that's this reddish brown
00:10:16.080
color and I'm just gonna go in the same place that I just went in with center
00:10:20.820
stage I'm just gonna put it right on the outer corner and then in the crease and
00:10:25.080
really just fluff that out right windshield wiper motions all over the
00:10:32.320
lid too let's just get that all over everything but you just want it to look
00:10:35.700
really well blended and I'm just gonna go into Clubhouse that's this color here
00:10:44.140
it's just a little bit more taupey and I'm gonna go in with a slightly smaller
00:10:49.320
fluffy brush it's kind of flat if you can see that and I'm just going to tap that
00:10:56.140
on the outer corner outer V just go right into the crease with it and this really
00:11:00.960
isn't going to be obvious at all but it's just gonna add a little bit of extra
00:11:06.160
definition to the eye now I'm going to take a pencil brush and go back into
00:11:14.920
stardom which is that reddish brown and just go under the lash line
00:11:24.160
so now I'm just gonna go into lifestyle which is this dark brown shade here it's
00:11:29.280
kind of a purpley chocolate brown and I'm gonna go in on a little straight
00:11:34.180
angled brush and I'm just gonna tap that right on the outer corner here and kind
00:11:39.880
of drag it in a little bit and that's gonna be my liner because I don't want to
00:11:43.780
do anything too crazy I'm probably rushing to get out the door at this point
00:11:48.040
and this is the easiest way to get your liner done in a short amount of time now
00:11:53.500
I'm just going to curl my lashes and put on some mascara on the top lashes and the
00:12:04.700
and now for the final touch I'm just gonna go in with this liquid catsuit mega last
00:12:10.660
lipstick and give me mocha this will last all day and it really does last all day
00:12:16.780
I mean you can throw it in your bag but it pretty much lasts all day and it's like
00:12:22.180
a your lips but better color which I love and my little secret trick which is
00:12:30.580
just going in with my fingertip and smoothing all this out and for the last
00:12:35.440
thing this is totally up to you if you want to do it but if you really want your
00:12:38.740
makeup to last all day I would use a setting spray so this is Milani's make
00:12:41.860
it last setting spray that's what the spray looks like and I just go ahead and
00:12:47.740
spray this on my face and it'll really just set everything down anything that's
00:12:51.400
powdery won't look powdery anymore it's a it's a really cool thing but you don't
00:12:54.940
have to do it if you don't really want to and that's the finished look I hope
