MOTD- Light Gold and Neutral Makeup Look


Hey guys! I wanted to share my MOTD I that I posted on my Instagram which you can follow here. I thought I share it here for those who may not follow me.  I post makeup looks, mini hauls, and makeup products. Hope you like this makeup look. It is simple to achieve.



As I have mentioned in my previous post, I have been experimenting with gel liners and creating a more dramatic wing . I have been loving this style. I still have to practice, but I think it is coming along. These colors that I used are nice for weddings if you want a subtle sparkle. I used colourpop cosmetics for the lid in the color Koosh to create sparkle on my lids with out using glitter. This a great alternative to using glitter and there was no fall out. To make it look less dramatic you can just do a traditional or less dramatic wing.

Products used:

Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in the New Dewy+ Smooth.  Perfect for Dry skin. Color in Sun Beige.
Inglot Gel Liner 77(one with the black top) in Black. Wonderful gel liner.
Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner pencil in Black. My staple waterline line eyeliner.
Colourpop Liquid Lipstick in the color Tulle. Beautiful brick red color. Love their liquid lipsticks and  they are so affordable. ($6.00)
TheBalm Mary Louminizer.
Colourpop Cosmetics eyeshadows in the colors Koosh and Bandit
Maybelline Master Concealer in medium. Perfect shade for my skin. I really do not like to use a lighter concealer than my skin tone. I think I look funny. lol
Loreal Butterfly Mascara in Black

*Not pictured I used Mac cosmetics eyeshadow in Embark.


I might do a quick pictorial if you like using these colors to give you more details on how I achieved this look. 


Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Compilation of my MOTD Eye Makeup



Hey lovelies! Hope everyone is doing well. I haven't blogged about my makeup looks or tutorials/pictorials in awhile. I thought I would show you guys makeup looks that I have been wearing and loving over the past few weeks and months.  I first uploaded them on my instagram account and I thought I would also share my looks with you guys here. Hope you like them! :)



Lately, I have been loving burgundy and burnt orange shades. Here I used sephora's pantone makeup palette. The color of the year if you didn't know already is marsala. I love this color and have been wearing this a lot. I used a navy blue eyeshadow just below the lower lashes that is also in the palette.

I love my colorful eyeshadows just as much as my neutral ones and I used the sugar pill palettes to create this fun and bright look. There are some days when I just want to wear colors especially when the winter blues hit. :)


That day I felt like wearing a simple neutral makeup look. This look can be worn every day and I think it would be nice to wear for work as well. I used the Tartlette palette from Tarte Cosmetics . You can read my review here.


I think out of all colorful eyeshadows to wear, purple is my favorite and also brings out the brown in my eyes. I like to incorporate purple with brown eyeshadow a lot because brown softens the look if you so not want to go bold on your eye makeup.. I used makeup geek's eyeshadows for this look. I wanted to keep the look simple and showcase the purple color on my lid so I didn't apply the liquid liner.


I debuted this look on my Motd ft. Lorac Pro 2 blog post which you can find here.  You can also find what colors I used in that blog post as well. I wanted to use cooler tone eyeshadows and came up with this soft smokey eye look. 
I created this look using the maya mia palette that I also did a review on. You can check that out here.  I wanted a soft peachy pink look and came up with this. I used a aqua blue color to give the makeup look a pop of color. I think this look would be nice to wear in the spring time.


I wanted to create a sultry eye makeup look. To achieve a sultry look you don't always have to go heavy on eye makeup. Sometimes the right color combo like a brown gray on the lid and  an orange brown eyeshadow on the crease will do just fine. When I go for a sultry look I do not want to add a liquid liner because I think its too much for day time wear. You can add the liquid liner to this look to create a night time look.


I hope you liked my eye looks and  I hope to create more makeup looks soon :)

If you would like you can follow me on instagrampinterest and twitter for quick updates and pretty makeup pictures and eye looks.

See you lovelies in my next blogpost :)

As they say, less is more. :)
